Check that new flange gaskets are installed between
the flanges of the pump body end suction and
discharge pipes. Make sure that these gaskets are
clean and grease-free.
Suitable fasteners for this connection are
supplied in the Xylem fastener pack. Apply a
torque of 8 to 11 ft. lbs (11 to 15 Nm) to each of
the flange bolts. Both the suction and discharge
flanges must be torqued to the same level.
