BA/E-21900-03/1 Page 3 of 3 10/2004 Preservation and Intermediate Storage of the Pump The centrifugal pump type SLM NV has been provided with a preservative either according to the customer's specification or as detailed in the operation manual. For a longer-term storage of the centrifugal pump, special preservative measures are to be taken. Prior to delivery, shaft ends have been equipped with protection caps for protection against dirt and damage. The connecting flanges of the pump casing are provided with flange covers for protection against dirt. Protection caps and flange covers must not be removed during intermediate storage. Having been packed into seaworthy cases for their transport, the pumps can be stored for a period of up to one year in their packing without special measures having to be taken. Nevertheless, to avoid damage to the anti-friction bearings in the pumps owing to vibrations, e. g. due to machines operated in close vicinity, the pumps should be stored in rooms free of vibrations. For intermediate storage, parts of the following low-alloy components must be treated with a preservative: • • bare shaft ends of drive shafts surfaces of the pump casing made of cast steel GP240GH (1.0619) that are in contact with the pumped liquid Concerning the anti-friction bearings it is understood that the lubricant in them will not be adversely affected during a one-year storage period provided the pumps are stored appropriately. If possible, the pumps should be turned by hand once a month during the storage period. Commercially available preservatives can be used. For application and removal of the preservative, specific instructions given by the respective manufacturer must be observed. Preservation will protect the material for about 1 year. In case of a longer storage period, preservation must be renewed. The storage area must be dry and free of dust. Any plain metal parts must be oil- or grease-lubricated for protection against corrosion. When storing pumps equipped with their driving motors, equally observe the instructions concerning preservation and storage given in the operation manual covering the driving motor. ATTENTION For outdoor storage, the pump unit must be provided with a water-proof cover.

Comments Motor lantern Constructive Design The centrifugal pump type SLM NV is a single-stage, single-entry, horizontal radial flow centrifugal pump with magnet drive. Its outer dimensions are identical to the usual standard chemical pump with stuffing box packing or mechanical seal. In the case of the magnet-drive pump, the pump power is transmitted from the driving motor via the magnet drive to the impeller. The magnet drive transmits the torque without slip and hermetically seals the product chamber from the atmosphere. The isolation shell between the two magnet rotors forms the static sealing. 3.1 Hydraulic Component Essentially, the hydraulic component comprises the impeller and the pump casing. Within the hydraulic component, the mechanical shaft output is transformed into hydraulic power. The pump shaft runs in journal bearings, which are made of ceramics and lubricated by the pumped liquid. The product-side magnet rotor is mounted on the shaft that it drives. 3.2 Magnet Drive The magnet drive hermetically seals the hydraulic component from the driving component on the atmosphere. The magnet drive comprises the inner and outer magnet rotors and the isolation shell. The isolation located between the two rotors seals the system. The power transfer is effected without slip. KLAUS UNION D-44795 BOCHUM BLUMENFELDSTRASSE 18 (0234) 45 95 - 0 TELEFAX (0234) 43 23 87 WWW.KLAUS-UNION.DE BA/E-21900-04/3 Constructional Description Page 3 of 4 10/2004 3.3 Driving Component 3.3.1 Close-Coupled Pump Type SLM NVB / SLM NVEB With the close-coupled pump type, the outer magnet rotor is mounted direct on the motor shaft. The motor is bolted via a motor lantern directly onto the intermediate lantern of the pump. 3.3.2 Bearing-Support Pump Type SLM NVN / NVS / NVE / NVO / NVEO With the bearing-support pump type, the outer magnet rotor is fastened to the drive shaft. The shaft runs in anti-friction bearings. The bearing support is screwed on the intermediate lantern, the pump comes with a bare shaft end. Construction types SLM NVN / NVS / NVE feature grease-lubricated anti-friction bearings whereas pump types SLM NVO / NVEO are supplied with oil-lubricated anti-friction bearings. 4. Construction Variants 4.1 Heated Pump H1 and/or H2 The pumps are equipped with a heating jacket on the pump casing (H1) and / or with a heating jacket in the intermediate lantern (H2). Both heating jackets can be connected with a bypass-line or designed as separate heatings. In the standard construction, the heating jackets are designed for a working pressure of 16 bar at 200°C (vapour) or 6 bar at 350°C (heat transfer oil). The heating jackets may also be used for cooling purposes (a maximum of 6 bar at 170°C). 4.2 Thermal Barrier and Secondary Sealing S or W Being located between the bearing support (with bearing-support construction) or the driving motor (with close-coupled construction) and the hydraulic component, the thermal barrier helps to dissipate the product heat. Thus, the anti-friction bearing temperature is reduced when warm liquids are processed. In addition, the thermal barrier can be equipped with a radial shaft seal ring, sealing the area to the outer magnet carrier. By way of a secondary sealing, the gasket prevents the liquid from immediately leaking to the atmosphere in case of a leakage of the isolation shell. A precondition for the use of the secondary sealing is the monitoring of the outer magnet carrier's area in order to detect any leakage in time.

Connection E1 is used when the constant external feeding of the magnet drive is required. Connection E2 is suitable for short-time flushing or external venting of the magnet drive. 4.5 Pump with Reduced Flush Flow Type RT The pump construction with reduced flush flow is used, when a medium solids content in the pumped liquid is to be expected and it is no longer sufficient, to filter the flow with an internal filter alone. 4.6 Pump without Internal Flush Flow Type OT This pump type is used when liquids with a high percentage of solids are processed. The isolation shell chamber is equipped with two external connections for filling and venting of the magnet drive. 4.7 Double Isolation Shell D When a high level of safety is required, the pump can be equipped with a double-skin isolation shell. The isolation shell actually consists of two isolation shells with one of them put into the other. Each of the two isolation shells is designed to meet the requirements of the specified operation conditions. If one of them should fail, the system still remains sealed. The space between the two shells can be monitored. 4.8 Inducer When NPHS values prevailing in the plant are very low, inducers are used in many cases. They considerably reduce the pump’s NPSH throughout the pump’s entire operation range without modifying the pump’s characteristics. In most cases, it will be possible to retrofit pumps in the plant with an inducer without requiring major modification works.

General Instructions Prior to installation, the pump should be checked for any damage it might have suffered during transport. The flange covers may only be removed right before installation. When turning the pump shaft by hand, abradant noises may be heard from within the pump. These noises result from the grease-free assembly of the journal bearings. Having filled the pump with the pumped liquid, these noises will disappear. KLAUS UNION cannot be held responsible for any damage resulting from inexpert installation. The pictorial representations have been simplified. Prior to installing the pump with the pertaining driving motor in areas subject to explosion hazards, ensure that the entire equipment has been approved for the prevailing explosion protection zone. Instructions given in the operation manuals of the driving motor and the flexible coupling are to be observed. The installation of electrical equipment is exclusively to be performed by qualified staff. Any regulations valid at the time are to be observed. Magnet drives cause strong magnetic fields. Persons with a pacemaker should not stay close to the magnet drive or come into close bodily contact with parts of it.

Installation Conditions Arrange pipework and equipment pertaining to the pump in a way to have enough space available for assembly and maintenance works. For dimensions of the pump refer to the attached installation plan. The concrete foundation must have set before the pump is placed on it. The surface of the foundation must be plane and level. 3. Installation of Bearing-Support Pump Types SLM NVN / SLM NVS / SLM NVO / SLM NVE / SLM NVEO 3.1 Installation of the Completely Assembled Unit The complete unit mounted on the base plate comprises pump, motor and flexible coupling. The coupling guard covering the flexible coupling serves as a protection against accidental contact. Install the unit according to the installation plan and align it using a spirit level. Insert the foundation bolts in the foundation and grout them with a fast setting grout-mixture. Once the grout mixture has set, tighten the foundation bolts fast always applying the same tightening moment. 3.2 Installation of the Partially Assembled Unit In case the pump unit is not supplied as a complete unit but in sub-assemblies such as pump, coupling, motor and base plate, the installation is effected as described hereafter: Insert the key into the key groove of the motor-side shaft end. Fit the motor-side coupling half on the shaft by means of a standard draw-on device. The same procedure is to be followed for the pump-side coupling half. Align the axial distance between motor- and pump-side coupling halves according to the dimensions given in the installation plan. Compensate vertical shaft displacements by using plane-parallel shims. Eliminate any misalignment of both coupling halves. Put a straight-edge on approx. 4 opposite points on the circumference of the coupling and observe the u. m. drawings. The radial and axial variance between the two coupling halves must not exceed a maximum of 0.1 mm.

The excessive misalignment can result in vibrations and higher wear on the flexible coupling and the anti-friction bearings. For the correct installation of the unit, the pump must be operated in the plant to achieve its working temperature. Having shut down the unit, check the axial and radial shaft misalignment of both coupling halves. Prior to measuring the shaft misalignment, release the bolts of the support (part no. 901.6). If any shaft misalignment is assessed, it must be compensated by putting plane-parallel shims underneath motor and/or support. 4. Installation of the Close-Coupled Pump Types SLM NVB and SLM NVEB The complete unit comprises motor and pump being supplied by KLAUS UNION completely mounted on a base plate. Install the unit according to the installation plan and align it using a spirit level. Insert the foundation bolts in the foundation and grout them with a fast setting grout-mixture. Once the grout mixture has set, tighten the foundation bolts fast always applying the same tightening moment. 5. Pipework Any pipework being connected should be state of the art and designed for the respective operating conditions. Ensure that the forces and moments transmitted by the pipework do not exceed the admissible values. (Admissible pipework forces and moments will be indicated in the following). The pipework must be free of any impurities such as weld slag or scale. Avoid disturbance of the pump flow by variable velocity or irrational flow to the pump inlet. Such disturbances will adversely affect the pump capacity, the smooth operation and the NPSH characteristics of the pump. When connecting the pipework make sure that as little tension as possible occurs. Refer to instructions such as given in VDMA standard VDMA 24277 „Spannungsarmer Rohrleitungsanschluß“ (Low-tension connection of pipework). Exceeding the admissible pipework forces and moments as well as tensions on the connections can result in escapes and leakages. In such a case, toxic and hot liquids will pose danger to life.

Avoid disturbances by asymmetric feed stream. When modifying nominal diameters use conical sections. If a shut-off valve is used, it must always be completely open during operation and it must never be used to control the rate of flow. Always install the suction pipe ascending to the pump. When dimensioning the suction pipe, ensure that the flow velocity does not exceed 2 m/s. Feed pipes must be installed descending to the pump. The flow velocity must not exceed 2.5 m/s. For liquids being processed close to their boiling point, the flow velocity shall not exceed 0.8 m/s. 5.2 Pressure Pipework Right behind the pump, a control valve must be available to control the rate of flow. A check valve must be provided between pump and shut-off valve when long pressure pipework or static delivery heads exceeding 10 m are given. The check valve protects the pump against liquid reflux and runback at shutdown. The flow velocity shall not exceed 5 m/s. When modifying nominal diameters use conical sections. 6. Admissible Forces and Moments The forces and moments the pipework transmits on the pump flanges must not exceed the values indicated.

Auxiliary Connections Depending on the construction type, the pump can be equipped with connections for heating, draining and monitoring. Refer to the installation plan attached to the pump for the exact location of those connections. If the pump is fitted with a heating jacket, the temperature of the heating medium must not exceed the maximum allowable surface temperature of the pump. The ignition temperature of the heating liquid must be at least by 50°C higher than the maximum surface temperature of the pump. The instruments for the monitoring of the pump such as temperature sensors, pressure sensors, etc. must have the corresponding approval for use in areas subject to explosion hazards. 8. Insulation Exclusively insulate the pump in the area shown below. It is to be made sure that the areas of the anti-friction bearings and the thermal barrier (in case the pump is fitted with one) are not insulated.

BA/E-21900-06/3 Page 1 of 6 01/2005 Preparations for Commissioning The correct functioning of the journal bearings is a precondition to prevent the outer magnet carrier from running into the intermediate lantern and thus to prevent the occurrence of unacceptably high temperatures. If the pump was not explicitly ordered free from oil and grease, there will be residues of anti-seize paste on wetted components. Prior to commissioning, compatibility of the anti-seize paste with the pumped liquid shall be checked. In case of uncertainty, please contact KLAUS UNION. 1.1 Bearing Support with Grease-Lubricated Anti-Friction Bearings Pumps of bearing-support construction with grease-lubricated anti-friction bearings are supplied fully greased. Shortly after commissioning and as a precaution, the bearings should be relubricated with the pump running by means of a relubricating device (lubrication nipple part no. 630.2). (For further details regarding type and quantity of the lubricants to be used and the appropriate relubricating intervals refer to section "Maintenance" of this operation manual.) By all means, observe the prescribed quantity of grease. In case the quantity of grease filled in is either too low or too high, failure of the anti-friction bearings will occur. 1.2 Bearing Support with Oil-Lubricated Anti-Friction Bearings In case of pumps of bearing-support construction equipped with oil-lubricated anti-friction bearings, the bearing support must be filled with lubricating oil prior to initial commissioning. Always observe the prescribed oil level. The oil level being either too high or too low will result in failure of the anti-friction bearings. For recommended types of oil refer to section "Maintenance" of this operation manual.

Fill oil into the bearing support (part no. 330) until the oil becomes visible in the screwed socket with the oil reservoir folded back. Then fill the oil reservoir through the chamfered drain pipe and fold it back. Now the oil level adjusts to the required level. As long as there is oil in the oil reservoir, the Constant-Level-Oiler will ensure that the oil level is always correct. 672 642 330 Right 1.3 Wrong Checking the Direction of Rotation The motor's direction of rotation must correspond with the direction-of-rotation arrow on the intermediate lantern. Only check the direction of rotation with the pump filled (closecoupled construction) or with the motor uncoupled (bearingsupport construction). 1.4 Filling and Venting Filling and venting of pump and plant are carried out simultaneously. Prior to filling the pump, fully open any valves in suction and pressure pipes. During the filling process turn the pump shaft by hand. For that purpose, the current feed to the motor must be interrupted and the coupling guard removed. No air pockets must remain in the system. Air and gas pockets will result in the immediate failure of the pump.

When being operated in areas subject to explosion hazards, the pump must be completely filled. If the operating company cannot ensure the complete filling of the pump, appropriate monitoring measures must be taken. If it is not possible to vent the pump via the pressure pipe, e. g. because a check valve is installed in the pipe, the pump must be vented via a separate ventilating valve on the discharge side. 1.4.1 Pump of Special Construction without Flush Flow OT Prior to commissioning, the isolation shell chamber must be filled via flange AF and vented via flange BF (ref. to drawing). Upon complete filling and venting, the connections must be closed. During operation of the pump, the pressure in the isolation shell chamber is equal to the delivery pressure. Therefore, keep the connecting flanges tightly closed and do not open them during operation. 2. Monitoring Equipment When the pump is operated in areas subject to explosion hazards, it may be necessary for the operating company to install monitoring devices to ensure that the pump does not become an ignition source. Essentially, ignition sources are hot surfaces and sparks (when rotating components contact). If required, KLAUS UNION can offer advice and support concerning the choice and purchase of monitoring equipment. For installation, commissioning and operation of the monitoring equipment observe the corresponding operation manuals supplied with the instruments.

To prevent the pump from excessively heating up, never operate it against closed control valve on the discharge side. For start-up, the discharge-side control valve must be sufficiently open for the minimum rate of flow Qmin. If for operating reasons it is only possible to commission the pump against closed discharge-side control valve, it is to be checked with the help of the following equation, whether the resulting heating of the pump during operation against closed gate valve is allowable: ∆T P = [K/s] Heating of the pump per second t ρ ⋅V ⋅ c p P Pumping capacity with the gate valve closed in [kW] ρ Density of the product in [kg/dm³] V Filling quantity of the hydraulic system in [Litre], refer to u. m. table cp Specific thermal capacity of the product in [kJ/kg/K] Pump Size 040-025-125 040-025-160 040-025-200 050-032-125 050-032-160 050-032-200 050-032-250 065-040-125 065-040-160 065-040-200 065-040-250 065-040-315 080-050-125 080-050-160 080-050-200 080-050-250 080-050-315 100-065-125 100-065-160 100-065-200 100-065-250 Filling Quantity [Litres] 0.5 0.7 1,0 0.7 0.9 1.3 2,0 0.9 1.2 1.8 2.6 3.7 1.3 1.7 2.3 3.5 4.8 1.9 2.4 3.2 4.7 Pump Size 100-065-315 125-080-160 125-080-200 125-080-250 125-080-315 125-080-400 125-100-200 125-100-250 125-100-315 125-100-400 150-125-250 150-125-315 150-125-400 200-150-250 200-150-315 200-150-400 200-150-500 250-200-250 250-200-315 250-200-400 300-250-315 Filling Quantity [Litres] 6.4 3.5 4.6 6.3 8.4 13.1 5.7 7.9 10.6 16.5 10.9 14.1 21.6 15.4 19.4 28.5 40.5 24.3 29.8 42.2 40.5 KLAUS UNION D-44795 BOCHUM BLUMENFELDSTRASSE 18 (0234) 45 95 - 0 TELEFAX (0234) 43 23 87 WWW.KLAUS-UNION.DE Commissioning and Shutdown BA/E-21900-06/3 Page 5 of 6 01/2005 At the most, the pump can be operated against closed gate valve on the discharge side until the allowable pump temperature is reached. Switch on the motor. If the delivery pressure does not increase despite rising speed, the pump has to be switched off immediately and vented again carefully. When the pressure gauge indicates delivery pressure, slowly open the control valve in the pressure pipe until the duty point is reached. The rate of flow can be increased in accordance with the characteristic curve until a point is reached where the motor would be overloaded. In case either the operation parameters are modified or they no longer correspond with the ones stipulated in the order (delivery head, rate of flow Qmin and Qmax, viscosity, density, liquid temperature), it is to be checked whether: • • • • • the magnet drive is still sufficient, the motor is not overloaded, on suction condition the suction head to be overcome does not get too high, on feed condition the available feed head is still sufficient, The maximum allowable temperature is not exceeded. With liquid temperatures exceeding 100 °C it must be observed that during commissioning or in case of varying operating conditions the maximum speed in temperature changing does not exceed 25 °C per minute. On initial start-up, operate the pump for at least 3 hours under operation conditions while checking for unusual noises and high temperatures on the pump surface. Measure the surface temperature with commercially available surface temperature meters. In rare cases it may happen during acceleration of the pump that the magnet drive desynchronises ("breakaway of magnet drive"). This condition can be detected by monitoring the delivery head, capacity and pump power output. Operation of the pump with a desynchronised magnet drive can cause excessive temperatures.

General Please observe the instructions given in the section "Safety" of this operation manual when carrying out any maintenance works. During the guarantee period, any maintenance works are either to be performed by KLAUS UNION staff or with KLAUS UNION's authorisation. Dismantling and Reassembly of the centrifugal pump type SLM NV have to be carried out by qualified staff. Magnet drives cause strong magnetic fields. Persons with a pacemaker should not stay close to the magnet drive or come into close bodily contact with parts of it. Pumps processing dangerous liquids are to be decontaminated. When draining the pump, any danger to persons and environment must be precluded. On principle, the driving motor must have been de-energized prior to effecting any works on pumps. Unintentional energizing of the pump must be precluded. 2. Lubrication of Bearings 2.1 Journal Bearings The journal bearings are lubricated by the pumped liquid. When the pump is operated to its designated use, the journal bearings will be provided with a sufficient quantity of lubricant and they will be resistant to wear and maintenance-free. Concerning monitoring of operation to designated use, refer to instructions given in sub-section “Inspection and Maintenance”. If the pump has run dry unintentionally, the pump must be allowed to cool down for a longer time. If the pump is filled with cold liquid immediately upon its dry-running, the journal bearings may be destroyed. After longer periods of dry-running, the pump must be dismantled and the journal bearings must be checked for any damage.

The anti-friction bearings are designed for a rated working life of 25000 hours at a bearing temperature of 90°C. Replace the anti-friction bearings after 90 % of their service life at the latest. However, the working life of the bearings can reduce due to higher bearing temperatures and unfavourable operating conditions (strong vibrations, aggressive environmental conditions, etc.). 2.2.1 Grease-Lubrication of Bearing-Support Construction SLM NVN, SLM NVS, SLM NVE For lubrication, use a high-quality anti-friction grease on lithium soap basis to DIN 51825 of the following properties: • • • Basic oil: Basic oil viscosity at 40°C: Consistency (NLGI grade): Mineral oil abt. 90 mm²/s 2 to 3 When mixing various types of lubricants it may happen that the consistency is changed in a way that sufficient lubrication of the bearings is no longer guaranteed. If it is not clear whether the lubricants can be mixed, the previously used lubricant has to be removed from the bearing completely. 2.2.1.1 First Filling If the pump has not been used for long periods (more than 1 year) the grease has to be replaced. Refer to the table for the exact quantities of grease required.

For special applications at higher temperatures (temperature of the pumped liquid exceeding 250°C), lower temperatures (temperature up to –60°C) or when a wide temperature range needs to be covered, a synthetic lubricating oil with viscosity grade ISO-VG 100 is recommended. 3. Inspection and Maintenance 3.1 Inspection during Operation To prevent the occurrence of ignition sources, which can be caused by failures and result in an explosion, the operating company has to take measures for monitoring the pump. Failures occurring during operation can cause the occurrence of an ignition source on the pump that can lead to an explosion when an explosive atmosphere is given.

Moreover, any malfunctions or damage to the pump can be inferred from the pump output. KLAUS UNION recommend the use of appropriate monitoring instruments in areas subject to explosion hazards as well as in non-hazardous locations and offer such devices on request. The instruments will be installed in the control cabinet and thus do not have to be approved for hazardous areas. 3.1.2 Monitoring the Isolation Shell Temperature Many malfunctions have a direct effect on the temperature of the isolation shell. As the surface temperature on the outside of the isolation shell can be a direct ignition source in hazardous areas, it is recommended to use an instrument to monitor the isolation shell temperature particularly when the pump is used in hazardous areas. KLAUS UNION can offer suitable instruments for that purpose. 3.1.3 Vibration Monitoring The measuring of vibrations is particularly suitable to monitor the anti-friction bearings. Refer to the table for the allowable rate of vibrations. The rate of vibrations has to be measured horizontally and vertically to the shaft axis on the coupling-side end of the bearing support. If the rates of vibrations thus determined exceed the maximum allowable values, the cause has to be found. Speed n [min-1] n ≤ 1800 1800 < n ≤ 4500 Maximum effective Rate of Vibrations veff (mm/s) depending on the Shaft Height h1 of the Pump h1 > 225 mm h1 ≤ 225 mm [mm/s] [mm/s] 2.8 4.5 4.5 7.1 KLAUS UNION D-44795 BOCHUM BLUMENFELDSTRASSE 18 (0234) 45 95 - 0 TELEFAX (0234) 43 23 87 WWW.KLAUS-UNION.DE BA/E-21900-07/4 Maintenance Page 8 of 27 01/2005 3.2 Maintenance The following descriptions of maintenance works to be executed require that the pump has already been partially dismantled. Check the parts for their re-usability and replace damaged components using new original spare parts. If the clearance between rotating and stationary components is too narrow, it may happen that these components contact and the resulting frictional heat entails excessive temperatures. 3.2.1 Journal Bearings Replace the journal bearing or parts of it using new original spare parts when the slide faces show visible signs of wear (e. g. traces of grooves from running).
