Model Number and Serial Number Record the model number and serial number below for future reference. This is important information when ordering replacement parts or when technical assistance is required. The numbers are found on a label located on the motor adapter.

WARNING: The pump and associated components are heavy. Failure to properly support the pump during lifting and movement could result in serious injury or damage to the pump and components. CAUTION: This pump should never be started without the 0.6 US gallon /77 oz. ( 2.7 liters) of priming fluid in the housing. If the pump has a PTFE, ceramic or silicon carbide bushing, IT CANNOT BE RUN DRY WITHOUT CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE PUMP.
Maximum Allowable Motor Power • Do not exceed the maximum power rating for the pump coupling. • Standard coupling for the SP10 is 10-pole & maximum 2 HP (1.5 kW). Priming Liquid Volume Initial filling (or refilling after maintenance) of the pump housing requires 0.6 US gallon / 77 oz. (2.7 liters) of liquid. Unpacking and Inspection Unpack the pump and examine for any signs of shipping damage. If damage is detected, save the packaging and notify the carrier immediately.
assembly. 8. Secure the pump to the motor with (4) 3/8” bolts, lock washers and flat washers (items 28, 29 & 30) using a 9/16” socket or wrench. Tighten to 240 in-lb (27.1 N-m). See figures 8 and 9. 5. Slide the outer drive magnet assembly (item 17) onto the motor shaft until the motor shaft contacts the snap ring in the bore of the drive. See figures 4 & 5. Figure 4 Figure 5 6. Secure the drive on the motor shaft. WARNING: Be careful, magnets will try to attract tools.
• The end of the pipe should be at least 2” (5.08 cm) for 1” pipe & 3” (7.6 cm) for 1½” pipe above the bottom of the suction tank. • If debris is in the suction tank, a strainer can be installed to help prevent foreign matter from entering the pump. The strainer must be periodically cleaned to prevent restriction. • It is recommended that a vacuum/pressure gage be installed in the suction piping. • For faster priming on installations with high lift, a foot valve is recommended.

washers (items 28, 29 & 30) securing the pump to the motor. See figure 10. Maintenance Recommended maintenance schedule The recommended maintenance schedule depends upon the nature of the fluid being pumped and the specific application. If the pump is used on a clean fluid, it is recommended that the pump be removed from service and examined after six months of operation or after 2,000 hours of operation.
9. Pull the inner volute straight off. Be careful since the impeller shaft may come out with the inner volute. See figure 17. Insert one screwdriver under this bolting location. Insert approximately 3/4” (19 mm) until it hits the barrier. Insert one screwdriver under this bolting location.Insert approximately 3/4” (19 mm) until it hits the barrier. Figure 12 Figure 17 10. Remove impeller/inner drive assembly (items 8, 8A, 9 & 9A). Inspect impeller and drive for signs of wear or damage. See figure 18.
12. Pull on one of the 3 prongs to remove the barrier (item 11) from the clamp ring and motor adapter (items13 & 15). NOTE: Prongs are sharp. Use a glove or rag for better grip. Motor adapters have an o-ring seal between the barrier and adaptor so fit may be snug. See figure 21. Inspect the inside and outside of the barrier for signs of rubbing. Thrust Ring Replacement 1. The thrust ring (item 8A) is held in-place with a snap fit with a ridge.
4. Install barrier into motor adapter/clamp ring assembly. NOTE: If removed, reinstall the o-ring (item 12), lubricate with a chemically compatible lubricant, and install in the groove in the clamp ring before installing the barrier. See figure 33A. Lubricate the back of the barrier with a chemically compatible lubricant and push it straight down into place. See figure 33B. Note: Barrier can only be installed in one position. The barrier prongs should be placed in the 11:00, 2:00 and 5:00 o’clock positions.
9. Install the separator plate (item 6) by lining up the bottom opening of the inner volute with the opening in the plate. Line up the slots in the separator plate with the notches in the inner volute. See figure 38. 10. If the inner volute o-ring was removed previously, lubricate the inner volute o-ring (item 5) with a chemically compatible lubricant, and install it in the groove on the round suction nozzle in the center of the inner volute. See figure 39. Figure 34 Figure 35 8.
• Leak in suction piping • Suction pipe not submerged enough (causing a vortex or exposing the end of the suction pipe) • Lift exceeds pump ability (see Capabilities section) • Suction pipe diameter too large • Specific gravity or local atmospheric pressure (altitude/ elevation) not accounted for in lift calculations • Mis-match of inner volute and impeller diameter • Inner volute o-ring chemically attacked, cut, brittle, etc.
