4 Ignition hazard assessment

4.1 General
1 Description of use
Group II, Equipment Protection Level Gb, Temperature class T1 – T4, Ex h IIC T1-T4 Gb: The machine is
a centrifugal pump designed for use in environments in which the release of flammable materials will cause
the atmosphere to become zone 1 (a place in which an explosive atmosphere consisting of a mixture with air
of flammable substances in the form of gas, vapor or mist is likely to occur in normal operation occasionally).
The pump is designed for pumping various liquids in the process industry.
Group II, Equipment Protection Level Gc, Temperature class T1 – T4, Ex h IIC T1-T4 Gc: The machine is
a centrifugal pump designed for use in environments in which the release of flammable materials will cause
the atmosphere to become zone 2 (a place in which an explosive atmosphere consisting of a mixture with air
of flammable substances in the form of gas, vapor or mist is not likely to occur in normal operation but, if it
does occur, will persist for a short period only). The pump is designed for pumping various liquids in the
process industry.

2 Construction
The pump is horizontally mounted and has a single-stage end-suction design. The pump shaft is mounted on
antifriction bearings so that the bearing at the impeller end carries radial loads, while the bearing at the
coupling end carries mainly axial loads. The pump is made of stainless steel. The pump easily passes the
required mechanical tests described in EN ISO 80079-36:2016. There are no light metal or plastic parts that
need consideration, or other relevant restrictions as described in EN ISO 80079-36:2016.
The pump’s design is such that it will not leak even in the event of a foreseeable malfunction. In normal
operation, the pumped liquid is inside the pump. The pump has either a single-acting or double-acting
mechanical seal, selected on the basis of the operating circumstances. The sliding faces of the mechanical
seal are lubricated either by the pumped liquid, by external sealing liquid or grease.
The pump mounting has been designed to withstand the expected loads and vibration caused by the pump.
The installation, operation and maintenance instructions include details of the support required by the pipes.
The design and manufacture of the pump have complied with the principle of non-electrical type of protection
constructional safety “c”, EN ISO 80079-37:2016.

3 Ignition hazard assessment

The ignition hazard assessment according to standard EN ISO 80079-36:2016 indicates that, because of its
construction and on the basis of testing (temperature classification and shock resistance tests), no ignition
sources exist in normal operation, during expected malfunctions, installation, scheduled maintenance or
repairs.
The added document lists all potential ignition sources that can be detected on the basis of experience, the
assessments of such ignition sources and the methods to prevent the ignition sources from becoming
effective. This ignition hazard assessment document is placed in the manufacturer’s technical file.

WARNING
The pump must not be used without the written permission of Sulzer in any environment other
than that for which it has been sold, or within operating limits exceeding those indicated on
the pump plate.

4 Permitted flange forces

Forces and moments that have an effect on the pump flanges because of pipe loads can cause:
• misalignment of the pump and drive shafts
• deformation and overstressing of the pump case
• overstressing of the fixing bolts between the pump and baseplate.
These instructions describe an easy procedure to examine whether the loads transmitted to a pump by its piping
stay within the permitted limits. Compare the loads (forces and moments) calculated by the piping designer to the
maximum permitted values of the flanges on the basis of their dimensions and installation conditions.
The basic values given in Table 6 are applicable to each of the pump flanges. Refer to standard EN ISO 5199:2002,
family no. 5B. Each flange must be evaluated individually. There are separate tables for values for vertical and
horizontal flanges.

CAUTION
The basic values mentioned in Table 8 must be multiplied by 0.5 in the case of stainless steel.
The values mentioned in the table apply to pumps equipped with a grouted baseplate. A
baseplate installed with machine feet should be multiplied by 0.25.

6 Head and flow requirements

CAUTION
Do not operate the pump below the minimum recommended flow or with the discharge valve
closed. Cavitation, recirculation or increased temperature can cause a quick pump failure.

The pump always has the pumping values (head, flow) shown on the nameplate of the pump (971.101). The head
and flow values with the specified impeller diameter and speed of rotation are given in the characteristic curve of the
pump. The operation point on the curve can be changed by adjusting the pumping system resistance e.g. by
throttling the flow with the valve in the discharge pipe. If the impeller diameter or the rotational speed of the pump is
changed, the operation point moves to a different point on the head-flow curve.

CAUTION
Too low an NPSH-available value can cause damage to the pump.

If you use the pump at operation points other than the initial operation point, always pay attention to these issues:
• When the pump was selected for the initial operation point, all factors that have an effect on the mechanical
durability (e.g pressure and temperature limits) and design of the pump (pump and impeller type, shaft
sealing, lubrication etc.) were carefully considered. Examine all these factors also at the new operation point.

• You can use the pump with the discharge valve closed only if the bypass piping is installed (minimum flow
rate must be achieved). It is not recommended to operate the pump continuously at the minimum flow rate.
• Examine the suction properties of the system (NPSH available) and the power of the drive motor at a new
operation point.
• The efficiency of a pump is an important consideration when you make an estimate of the lifetime costs of
the pump. Thus you must examine its effect on power consumption.
• The characteristic curve of the pump is always specified by tests with clean water. Other types of pumped
liquid can change the head, flow or power values very much. These factors were considered carefully when
the pump was initially selected and you must consider them also at the new operation point.

7 Sound level charts

The noise levels follow the requirements of Machine Directive 2006/42/EC. The noise levels are shown as two-digit
values for noise emission. Refer to standard EN ISO 4871:1996.
The given values are defined in accordance with standard EN ISO 20361:2009 for the pump alone. The place of
operation of the pump corresponds to a box-like space as specified under section 6.2 of the above-mentioned
standard. The sound power levels have been defined in accordance with standard EN ISO 9614-2:1996 on the basis
of sound volume measurements at the best efficiency point of each stated speed of rotation with the maximum
impeller diameter of the pump.
It is not possible to measure all different pump applications. Therefore, some values have been determined by
calculations based on measurements performed with corresponding pumps.

1 Safety procedures before installation

All parts for the installation must be fully clean before the installation. Make sure that there are no signs of antirust
agents in the pump flanges, shaft assembly and drive parts. Be careful with the parts when you install them.

WARNING
A careful plan makes the installation easier.
Make sure that the operation conditions are safe and that there is good access to the equipment.
Use personal protective equipment such as helmet, safety shoes and gloves.

Applicable lifting equipment must be available for installation and repair work.

WARNING
There must be sufficient space around the pump for the installation and maintenance
procedures.

2 Installation of grouted baseplate of pump

The installation site of the pump must be sufficiently strong to withstand the potential forces caused by the piping.
If you are not sure that the installation area is suitable for installation, make a strong concrete support stand or
equivalent. Also check regularly the bottom beams in the foundation or holes for the different types of foundation
screws.
It is recommended that you follow the instructions below when you grout the baseplate of the pump. Attach the
baseplate of the pump to the foundation. The dimensions of the screws are shown in the dimensional drawing of the
pump.
The installation of the grouted pump baseplate has 5 primary steps:

I. lifting the pump-motor-baseplate assembly into place (chapter 2.1)

II. aligning the pump-motor-baseplate assembly (chapter 2.2)
III. pipe work (chapter 2.3)
IV. grouting (chapter 2.4)
V. alignment of coupling (chapter 2.5)

2.3 Pipe work

WARNING
Do not remove the suction and discharge nozzle covers of the pump before the pipe work is
completed. Unwanted material can cause a blockage to the small clearances of the suction and
discharge nozzles.

WARNING
If there is a possibility of a dangerous flow back to the pump after the shutdown of the pump, a
nonreturn device must be installed in the outlet pipe.

CAUTION
Do the pressure test for the piping. Refer to the related standards.

2.3.1 Supporting
Install the pipes and supports so that the requirements for forces stated under section Permitted flange forces in
instruction “Product description” are fulfilled under all operating conditions. When you select the locations of the
supports, make sure that thermal expansion is considered.

CAUTION
Do not use the pump as a support for the piping system.

Attach the pipe flanges accurately to the pump flanges. Do not use force to get the flanges into positions that are not
correctly aligned. See Figure 3.

Figure 3

2.3.2 Suction pipe

2.3.2.1 Suction pit above the pump

Always make the suction pipe short to get the minimum pipe friction losses. Prevent the formation of points where
gas pockets or turbulence are possible.
Examine the tightness of the suction pipe with a pressure test. The suction pipe must go down gradually towards the
pump. Do not use horizontal suction pipes if possible.

2.3.2.2 Suction pit below pump

If the liquid level is below the pump, the suction pipe must rise gradually towards the pump. A sufficient length of the
pipe end must be below the liquid level to prevent air from entering the pump.

2.3.2.3 Extension piece

If the suction pipe of the pump is horizontal, the pipe cones must be eccentric and in such a position that the top
level is horizontal. If extension pieces are used, they must be formed so that gases cannot gather in them. If the
suction pipe of the pump is vertical, the pipe cones must be concentric (symmetrical).

2.3.3 Discharge pipe

If a dangerous back flow is possible after the pump has stopped, a back-pressure valve must be installed in the
discharge pipe so that the back flow cannot rotate the pump counter-clockwise. An uncontrolled back flow can cause
a dangerous situation for example for the maintenance staff, and it can also break the rotating parts of the pump.
The shut-off valve must be installed after the potential back-pressure valve.

2.3.4 Minimum flow of pump

If the pump operates near or below its minimum flow, install a bypass pipe to prevent the temperature and vibration
from increasing too much. Contact Sulzer for more instructions.
When an operating point is located within the area marked with the dashed lines, from 5% to 30% of the best
efficiency point flow rate, the pump must be equipped with an appropriate flow straightener. Please note that neither
NPSH required nor efficiency can be guaranteed within this range.

2.3.5 Flushing of shaft seal of pump

For the correct functioning of a mechanical seal, see the component instruction for the mechanical seal.

WARNING
When external sealing liquid (sealing liquid equipment) is used for the lubrication of the shaft seal
of the pump in an explosive atmosphere, there must be a flow control device and an alarm device
in the sealing liquid line to indicate too small a flow. The pump must be stopped, if the sealing
liquid flow is less than 75% of the set value.

2.4 Grouting
1 Assemble a concreting frame around the baseplate. The frame must be resistant to the forces caused by the
concrete or epoxy mortar and be waterproof at the seam of the foundation and the frame.
2 Put concrete or epoxy mortar into the frame and into the inlets in the baseplate. Make sure that the full frame
is filled with concrete or epoxy mortar. The material has to withstand vibration. The recommended minimum
concrete strength is 28 MPa (4060 psi) (strength class C28).
3 After the material has become fully hard, remove the frame.

2.5 Installation and alignment of coupling

WARNING
Before you start to install or align the coupling, make sure that it is not possible
to start the drive motor.

CAUTION
Very accurate alignment is necessary for a flexible coupling. Unsatisfactory alignment can
prevent the servicing of the coupling and cause damage to the bearings of the pump and motor.

Align the coupling as follows:

1 The maximum tolerances for angular and parallel alignments are given in Figure 5.
2 Move the motor vertically by putting shims under the feet of the motor.
3 Adjust the motor horizontally, e.g. with the help of adjustment screws in the baseplate. There is a minimum
vertical adjustment margin of 3 mm and a horizontal adjustment margin of 3 mm.
4 Finally, tighten the mounting screws of the motor to the correct tightening torque.

1 Safety procedures before start-up

Before you start the pump for the first time and always after maintenance, follow these precautions to prevent
accidents and to operate the pump without failures.

1.1 Leakage test

WARNING

Make sure that you cannot start the motor accidentally during the procedures that follow.

The pump parts and the piping must pass a leakage test before the start-up.
Leakage, especially in the suction piping, can decrease the performance of the pump and will prevent the filling of
the pump before the start-up.

NOTE

The regulations for pressure vessels are not applied to the pressure parts of the pump.

1.2 Direction of rotation

 Before commissioning, always examine the motor for correct direction of rotation.
 It is necessary to remove the coupling spacer before you examine the rotation direction of the motor.
The direction of rotation must be according to the arrow sign on the bearing housing.

2 Starting the pump

WARNING
Use the pump only for the purpose for which it is supplied and in accordance with these
instructions.

2.1 Preparations for start-up

WARNING
Before you start the pump, make sure that the pump is sufficiently
filled with the pumped liquid.

1 Fill the pump with liquid so that the suction pipe and the pump cases are filled with liquid.
2 Open the shut-off valve (if installed) so much that the flow in the pipeline corresponds to the minimum flow of
the pump, and lock the valve open. If the pump does not have a device that ensures minimum flow, make
sure that at least the minimum required flow always flows through the pump.
3 Make sure that the coupling guard is in position.
4 Examine that the suction valve is fully open and that the discharge valve is closed.

2.2 Starting and monitoring during initial operation

WARNING
Do not stay near the discharge flange of the pump during the starting and operation of the pump.
If piping leaks occur, there is a risk of personal injury.

CAUTION
Monitor immediately after start-up the instrumentation that shows the discharge pressure. If the
correct pressure is not quickly reached, stop the motor and check the causes for the low
pressure.

CAUTION
If it is necessary to adjust the amount of the liquid pumped, adjust the discharge valve. Do not
use the suction valve for flow adjustment.

Subject: Operation

1 Start the motor. Open the discharge valve until you get the correct flow rate. Starting to the proper operating
speed (or at least to the allowable minimum speed of rotation) must be done as quickly as possible (3-5
seconds). Do not operate the pump below the minimum speed of rotation (excluding starting and stopping).
Refer to instruction “Product description”.
2 Monitor the discharge side pressure. If you do not get the correct pressure quickly, stop the motor and find
the cause for the too low pressure. See Section “Troubleshooting, operation for possible causes”.
3 Make sure that there are no leaks from the flange connections or from the shaft seal of the pump.
4 Monitor regularly that the pump operates as planned. Monitor the process values of the pump and measure
the vibration values of the pump and motor.

CAUTION
If it is necessary to adjust the quantity of the liquid pumped, adjust the discharge valve. Do not
use the suction valve for flow adjustment.

CAUTION
Do not operate the pump at a too high output.
Observe immediately after start-up the instrumentation showing the discharge pressure. If the
correct pressure is not quickly reached, stop the motor and check the causes for the low
pressure.

If it is necessary to adjust the amount of the pumped liquid, do it by adjusting the discharge valve.
Never use the suction valve for flow adjustment.

3 Stopping the pump

1 Close the discharge valve to prevent the liquid from flowing back.
2 Stop the pump motor when the discharge valve is closed.
3 Close the suction valve if the pumped liquid flows out of the pipeline.
4 Remove pressure from the pump.
5 Close all sealing, cooling and flushing liquid equipment.
6 If the pumped liquid can freeze, drain the pump and the pipe for the standstill period.

Turn the shaft of the pump 2-3 times around in the direction of rotation at regular intervals during longer standstills.
Refer to section 3 Stopping the pump and also to instruction “Reception of supply / Storage”.

4 Measures after the first operation

During operation, monitor the pump discharge side pressure, unusual sounds and vibrations.

1 General

NOTE
Preventive maintenance is important for the safe operation of the machine.

Regular and accurate preventive and predictive maintenance can extend the product lifetime and reduce the need
for repairs and spare parts. An important part of quality maintenance is to monitor the instrumentation and to do
physical checks. Sulzer recommends that the maintenance system include a historical record kept of the condition
and performance of each pump. This helps to prevent sudden failures and facilitate potential failure analyses. In the
process industries, the cost of one process downtime caused by a pump is usually much more than the price of the
pump.

NOTE
If the pump performance is lower than the process requirements, disassemble and examine the
pump. Replace all worn parts with new and correct spare parts.

Preventive maintenance includes these procedures:

• Temperature, noise and vibration monitoring and inspections
• Monitoring of the discharge pressure, capacity and power demand
• Inspections of corrosion and wear
• Monitoring of the shaft seal
• Cleaning of the pump regularly
• Monitoring of the pump and pipes for leakage
• Checks at an interval of 4 months of the tightness of most important fasteners, such as foundation screws
and pump & motor fasteners onto the baseplate etc.

Fixed or portable instruments can cause a potential pump failure, and it is necessary to examine them regularly for
correct functioning.
WARNING
In an explosive atmosphere, avoid abrasive cleaning when cleaning the pump to prevent
sparking caused by electrostatic charge (explosion hazard group IIC).

2 Temperatures

During operation, monitor the temperatures of these components regularly:

• volute case (102.101)
• bearing housing (330.101)
• motor (800.201)
Examine immediately the cause of differences in temperatures to prevent more extensive damage. Make sure that
the temperatures or pressures do not exceed the temperature and pressure limits given in instruction 2.25 G07,
N32491 Product description.

3 Noise and vibration analysis

A regular check of the pump noise and vibration gives a good view of the condition and wear of the rotating parts of
the pump. This also enables the predictive maintenance procedures and decreases the number of unexpected shut-
downs. The admissible vibration severity values are shown in instruction 2.25 G07, N32491 Product description.

4 Discharge pressure

A regular control of the pressure supplied by the pump, the rated flow and the power consumption of the drive unit
gives a view of the condition and wear of the hydraulic parts of the pump. Refer to this control when you schedule
preventive maintenance procedures such as replacement of parts. If the discharge pressure of the pump decreases
or if the power demand increases slowly over time even though the pump has the same production rate and speed
of rotation all the time, it is a sign of increased internal clearances in the pump. The pressure and temperature limits
of the pump are shown in instruction 2.25 G07, N32491 Product description.

5 Corrosion and wear

When you operate the pump in conditions that cause corrosion and/or in abrasive conditions, a regular control of
wall thicknesses in the parts is necessary. When the hydraulic surfaces are indicating signs of corrosion and wear,
the mechanical durability (pressure limits) shown in these instructions are no longer valid and you need to consider
replacing the corroded/worn parts.
Because of the casting tolerances (ISO 8062-3:2007), the nominal wall thicknesses shown in the casting drawings
cannot be used for the estimate of too much corrosion and wear. If corrosion and wear are possible, measure the
wall thicknesses of the volute case and case cover at specified points before the first start-up. These values can be
used as reference values for assessing corrosion and wear.

6 Shaft sealing

WARNING

Always stop the motor before you perform any maintenance tasks on the pump. Make absolutely
sure that the motor cannot start during repairs.

NOTE
Always drain the pump before you disassemble the shaft seal.

The mechanical seal is installed at the factory before the supply. The cleanliness and lubricating properties of the
pumped liquid and the sealing liquid have an effect on the lifetime of a mechanical seal. If the mechanical seal has a
leak, stop the pump and replace the mechanical seal. Refer to the seal instructions in document 2.25 G111, N32496
Installation, operation and maintenance instructions.
It is not necessary to do preventive maintenance on mechanical seals, but it should be remembered that the slide
surfaces of the seal are not resistant to dry running. Make sure that the pump is always filled with liquid before you
start it.

CAUTION
The dry running of mechanical seals may damage the slide surfaces and cause leakage of the
pumped liquid.

7.2 General information on grease lubrication

CAUTION
Never mix different grease grades (consistency, thickeners). The mixed grease becomes softer
and does not lubricate the bearings properly.

NOTE
All greasing equipment and fittings used must be clean to avoid any impurities from entering the
bearing housing.

NOTE
The surface temperature of the bearing unit can temporarily rise after regreasing due to an
excess amount of grease.

All the grease-lubricated bearings have been lubricated before the shipment. The first re-lubrication should be done
before the initial commissioning of the pump.
For normal conditions when the bearing housing surface temperature is below +80 °C (+176 °F), we recommend
lithium-based or lithium-calcium-based mineral greases for antifriction bearings, e.g.:
• Shell Gadus S2 V220 2
• Mobil, Mobilgrease XHP 222
If the bearings run hotter and the surface temperatures are above +80 °C (+176 °F), we recommend the use of the
following special greases:
• Shell Gadus S3 V550L 1
• Mobil, Mobilgrease XHP 461
These special greases can also be used with surface temperatures below +80 °C (+176 °F). If the ambient
temperature is below 0°C (+32°F), always consult Sulzer about the use of the correct grease. All lubricants may not
be suitable for low temperature use.
Always consult the pump manufacturer about the use of any special greases and their start-up.

7.2.1 Grease lubrication in SNS

Amounts of lubricants and re-lubrication intervals are described in Table 3 and in Table 4 depending on the speed of

7.3 General information on oil lubrication

CAUTION
For delivery, the bearing housing of the pump has been emptied of oil. Remember to refill it
before starting,

For lubrication, use only high-quality mineral oils, the viscosity of which is ISO VG 46.
E.g.
• Shell Tellus Oil S46
• Mobil DTE Oil Medium
The viscosity of oil at the operating temperature must not be below 12 cSt (65 SSU). Please take a note that the oil
temperature may be different from the bearing housing surface temperature.
The oil cleanliness requirement is according to ISO 4406, solid contaminant code of oil: -/17/14. The maximum water
concentration in oil is 200 ppm.
If the ambient temperature is below 0 °C, always consult Sulzer about the use of the correct synthetic oil. All
lubricants may not be suitable for low temperature use.

7.3.1 Oil lubrication in SNS

First oil filling

Figure 1

1 Remove the venting device (672.101).

2 Add oil until the middle of the sight glass (642.101), Figure 2. When the pump operates, there can be small
changes in the oil level of the sight glass. With a lower speed the oil level can be lower and with a higher
speed it can be higher (air is mixing into oil).

Put the venting device (672.101) again in position. See the oil volumes in Table 6.

Oil change
After commissioning, replace the oil for the first time after approximately 100 hours of operation. After the first oil fill,
refer to the oil change intervals in Table 5. If the operation conditions cause contamination or changes in other
properties of the oil, the oil change interval must be shorter.

Table 5, Oil changes

Surface temperature of bearing housing Oil change interval

65°C 1 year
75°C 6 months

If the surface temperature of the bearing housing is higher than 85 °C (185 °F) (the permissible maximum is 110 °C
(230 °F)), the fully synthetic oil Mobil SHC 626 or equivalent must be used. In these cases, the oil change interval is
three (3) months.

Sulzer Pumps Finland Oy.

1 Seal types

1.1 Single mechanical seal SNS1

Sulzer SNS1 is a single acting mechanical seal that is specially designed for the SNS pump. The sliding faces of the
seal are balanced to prevent large pressure fluctuations and pressure shocks, because these can cause loads to the
sliding faces. In the Sulzer SNS1 seal, the slide ring is installed on flexible material. Because of the flexible slide
ring, the sliding faces rotate without run-out and they automatically prevent alignment errors between the shaft and
seal housing. The seal is applicable to pumps used in the water, heat generation, paper, pulp, food and chemical
industries, where clean and lubricating low-consistency liquids are pumped. The pumped liquid lubricates and cools
the sliding faces of the seal.

1.2 Singe mechanical seal SNS1F

Sulzer SNS1F is a single acting seal specially designed for the SNS pump.
The sliding faces of the seal are balanced to prevent large pressure fluctuations and pressure shocks, because
these can cause loads to the sliding faces. In the Sulzer SNS1F seal, the slide ring is installed on flexible material.
Because of the flexible slide ring, the sliding faces rotate without run-out and they automatically prevent alignment
errors between the shaft and seal housing. The seal is applicable to hot water solutions where you cannot use the
SNS1 seal. In the SNS1F seal, the pumped liquid recirculates back to the seal space. If not, external flushing must
be used to prevent dry running and for the cooling of the seal. The compact design together with continuous flushing
ensure clean lubrication on the sliding faces of the seal when you operate the pump, and also during the start of the
pump.

1.3 Single grease-lubricated mechanical seal SNS1G

Sulzer SNS1G is a single acting grease-lubricated mechanical seal that is specially designed for the SNS pump. The
sliding faces of the seal are balanced to prevent large pressure fluctuations and pressure shocks, because these
can cause loads to the sliding faces. In the Sulzer SNS1G seal, the slide ring is installed on flexible material.
Because of the flexible slide ring, the sliding faces rotate without run-out and they automatically prevent alignment
errors between the shaft and seal housing. The seal is applicable to pumps used in the water, heat generation,
paper, pulp, food and chemical industries, where clean and lubricating low-consistency liquids are pumped. The
pumped liquid lubricates and cools the sliding faces of the seal. The grease between the seal and shaft ensures
lubrication.

Subject: Installation, operation and maintenance instruction

Prior to commissioning, the SNS1G seal must be filled with grease. In manual lubrication, the lubrication interval is
about 1 month. The seal can also be connected to an automatic lubrication system. Greases of grade NLG 1-2 are
recommended for lubrication.

1.4 Double mechanical seal SNS2

Sulzer SNS2 is a double acting seal specially designed for the SNS pump. The double-balanced design of the seal
enables the use of pressurized and non-pressurized sealing liquid. The sliding faces of the seal are balanced to
prevent the pressurization of the pumped liquid and sealing liquid so that these do not open the sliding faces.
Alternatively, the seal works in all pressure variation circumstances, and also at negative pressure. In the Sulzer
SNS2 seal, the slide ring is installed on flexible material. Because of the flexible slide ring, the sliding faces rotate
without run-out and they automatically prevent alignment errors between the shaft and seal housing. The seal is
applicable to pumps used for environmentally dangerous and abrasive liquids, where the conditions are beyond the
operation limits of single seals. The seal is applicable to difficult conditions in pumps used in the paper, pulp, food
and chemical industries. The pumped liquid lubricates and cools the sliding faces of the seal.

1.5 Double mechanical seal SNS2P

Sulzer SNS2P is a double acting seal specially designed for the SNS pump. The double-balanced design of the seal
enables the use of both pressurized and non-pressurized sealing liquid. The sliding faces of the seal are balanced to
prevent the pressurization of the pumped liquid and sealing liquid so that these do not open the sliding faces.
Alternatively, the seal works in all pressure variation circumstances, and also at negative pressure. The structure of
the SNS2P seal accomplishes a sufficient sealing liquid circulation in a closed sealing liquid system, which is why a
separate circulation pump is not needed. In the Sulzer SNS2P seal, the slide ring is installed on flexible material.
Because of the flexible slide ring, the sliding faces rotate without run-out and they automatically prevent alignment
errors between the shaft and seal housing. The seal is applicable to pumps used for environmentally dangerous and
abrasive liquids, where the conditions are beyond the operation limits of single seals. The seal is applicable to
difficult conditions in pumps used in the paper, pulp, food and chemical industries. The pumped liquid lubricates and
cools the sliding faces of the seal.

2 Storage

Keep Sulzer SNS seals in a dry storage in their original package, and do not open the package until the installation.
Be careful when handling the seal package. Do not drop or otherwise damage the seals. If a seal is stored, examine
that the O-rings can move freely.

3 Safety

Follow the installation and operation instructions and the general safety instructions when you use the Sulzer SNS
seals. Do not use the seals beyond the operation condition limits.

WARNING

Follow the same procedures as with a corrosive material when you handle seals made from FKM
and FFKM materials. Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions.

6 Maintenance and repairing

In order to keep Sulzer seals in best serviceable condition, we recommend that you examine the seals always in
connection with maintenance work. Make sure that the seal is tight and that there are no leaks before you
disassemble the seal. The maintenance interval of the seals is related to the process conditions. Because of this we
cannot give an accurate maintenance interval (it can be 1 - 10 years). We recommend that you replace a seal that
has been used for a length of time with a new seal if a seal has to be removed from the device (even if the seal is
not leaking). If it is necessary to re-install the removed seal, examine the condition of the sliding faces and auxiliary
seals (O-rings and gaskets) of the seal. Clean the seal space and seal of the device thoroughly. Lubricate the O-ring
surfaces with silicone grease.
In maintenance and repair, we recommend that you contact the seal manufacturer or the seal manufacturer’s
representative.

NOTE

Before you contact the seal manufacturer or representative of the seal manufacturer, verify the
seal type and identification data from the seal or in the installation and operation instructions.

Assembly
5.2 Assembling the coupling

Note
A better balancing result can be achieved by balancing the coupling parts (5, 6 and 7) when
they are bolted together as an assembly. When balancing all parts together, mark the position
of the components relative to one another.

5.2 Assembling the coupling

NOTICE
Property damage
Damage to the elastomer components from cleaning agents.
● Ensure that the elastomer components do not come into contact with cleaning agents.

NOTICE
Property damage
Damage to the shaft end, the coupling parts and/or the parallel key.
● Note the following handling instruction.

Procedure
1. Unscrew the set screw out of coupling parts 1 (1) and 5 (5) until it is no longer possible for
there to be a collision with the parallel key or the shaft.
2. Clean the bores and shaft ends.
3. Coat the bores of coupling parts 1 (1) and 5 (5) and the shafts with MoS2 assembly paste
(e.g. Microgleit LP 405).

Assembly
5.3 Aligning the coupling

4. Mount the coupling parts 1 (1) and 5 (5) on the shaft.

Note
Coupling parts with conical bore
Mount the coupling parts 1 (1) and 5 (5) with conical bore and parallel keyway on the shaft
in cold condition. Secure the coupling parts with suitable end plates without pulling the
coupling parts further onto the cone (fitting dimension = 0).

Note
Coupling parts with cylindrical bore
To make assembly easier, you can heat coupling parts 1 (1) and 5 (5) with cylindrical bore
up to a maximum of 150 °C if required. Note when doing this the temperature range of the
flexible elements (12) (see sections N-EUPEX flexible elements (12) (Page 55) and N-
EUPEX DS flexible elements (12) (Page 56)). Remove the flexible elements (12) if
necessary. Protect adjacent components against damage and heating to temperatures
above 80 °C.

5. Secure the coupling parts 1 (1) and 5 (5) with a set screw or an end plate. When securing
with a set screw the shaft must not protrude or be set back from the inner side of the hub.
6. Tighten up the set screw or the screw to attach the end plate to the specified tightening
torque TA (for the set screw please see section Machining an axial locking mechanism
(Page 23)).
7. If you have removed the flexible elements (12), reinstall them.
8. Bolt the coupling part 5 (5) to the "zero face" of the coupling part 6 (6) and tighten the bolts
to the specified torque TA (see section Tightening torques and widths A/F (Page 53)).
The "zero face" of the coupling part 6 (6) is marked by a 0.2 mm deep groove around the
circumference of the flange. If the individual radial and axial runout deviations of the
coupling parts 5 (5), 6 (6) and 7 (7) add up unfavourably, the radial runout deviation can
increase further. You can reduce this by changing the bolting position of the coupling parts
5 (5) and 6 (6).

5.3 Aligning the coupling

5.3.1 Purpose of alignment

The shafts that are joined by the coupling are never on an ideal precise axis but have a certain
amount of misalignment.
Misalignment in the coupling leads to restoring forces that can stress adjacent machine parts
(e.g. the bearings) to an unacceptable extent.
The misalignment values in operation result from the following:
● Misalignment due to assembly
Incorrect position due to a lack of precision when aligning
● Misalignment due to operation
Example: Load-related deformation, thermal expansion

Assembly
5.3 Aligning the coupling

You can minimise misalignment by aligning after assembly. A lower misalignment in the
coupling has the following advantages:
● Reduced wear of the elastomer components
● Reduced restoring forces
● Misalignment reserves for operation of the coupling
You can find the maximum permitted shaft misalignment values during operation in section
Shaft misalignment values during operation (Page 53).

5.3.2.1 Axial misalignment

Set the axial misalignment ΔKa to a value within the permissible tolerance range of dimension
S2.
You can find the values for dimension S2 in section Speeds, geometry data and weights
(Page 49).

5.3.2.2 Angular misalignment

Determine the value ΔS2 (ΔS2 = S2max - S2min). The determined value ΔS2 may not exceed the
value ΔS2perm..
You can find the values for ΔS2perm in section Shaft misalignment values during operation
(Page 53).
If required, you can calculate the angular misalignment ΔKw as follows:
ΔKw [rad] = ΔS2 / DA

8.3 Replacing wearing parts

DANGER
Danger due to bursting of the coupling
If you do not observe the information stipulated here regarding replacement of wearing parts,
this can lead to bursting of the coupling during operation. There is a risk of fatal injury from
flying fragments. Bursting of the coupling can lead to an explosion in potentially explosive
atmospheres.
● Please observe all the stipulations concerning the replacement of wearing parts.

Replace the flexible elements (12) if the maximum permissible torsional backlash has been
reached. It is not necessary to move the coupled machines apart.

Procedure
1. Secure the coupling part 6 (6) in position to prevent it from falling.
2. Loosen the screws (22) between the coupling parts 5 (5) and 6 (6), and between the
coupling parts 6 (6) and 7 (7).
3. Press the coupling parts 5 (5) and 7 (7) out of the centring devices using the tapped jacking
holes in coupling part 6 (6).
4. Push the coupling part 7 (7) as far as possible into coupling part 1 (1).
5. Remove the coupling part 6 (6) radially.
6. Pull the coupling part 7 (7) out of the coupling part 1 (1).
The flexible elements (12) are now freely accessible.
7. Remove the flexible elements (12).
8. Install the new flexible elements (12).
Please observe the information in section Use and storage of flexible elements (12)
(Page 55).
When reinstalling the coupling parts please observe the information in chapters Assembly
(Page 21) and Commissioning (Page 31).

5. Operation
5.1 General
The motors are designed for the following conditions unless
otherwise stated on the rating plate:

– Motors are to be installed in fixed installations only.

– Normal ambient temperature range is from –20 °C to
+40 °C.
– Maximum altitude is 1000 m above sea level.
– The variation of the supply voltage and frequency may
not exceed the limits mentioned in relevant standards.
Tolerance for supply voltage is ±5 %, and for frequency
±2 % according to the figure 4 (EN / IEC 60034-1,
paragraph 7.3, Zone A). Both extreme values are not
supposed to occur at the same time.

The motor can only be used in applications for which

it is intended. The rated nominal values and operation
conditions are shown on the motor rating plates. In
addition, all requirements of this manual and other related
instructions and standards must be followed.

If these limits are exceeded, motor data and construction

data must be checked. Please contact ABB for further
information.

WARNING!
Ignoring any instructions or maintenance of the
apparatus may jeopardize safety and thus prevent
the use of the motor.
