SPECIAL INFORMATION
DANGER !
Before opening any Viking pump liquid
chamber (pumping chamber, reservoir,
relief valve adjusting cap fitting, etc.)
Be sure:
1. That any pressure in the chamber has
been completely vented through the
suction or discharge lines or other
appropriate openings or connections.
2. That the driving means (motor,
turbine, engine, etc.) has been “locked
out” or made non-operational so that
it cannot be started while work is
being done on pump.
3. That you know what liquid the
pump has been handling and the
precautions necessary to safely
handle the liquid. Obtain a material
safety data sheet (MSDS) for the
liquid to be sure these precautions
are understood.
Failure to follow above listed
precautionary measures may result in
serious injury or death.
ROTATION: Viking pumps operate equally well in a clockwise
or counterclockwise rotation. Shaft rotation determines which
port is suction and which is discharge. Port in area where
pumping elements (gear teeth) come out of mesh is suction
port.
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES:
1. Viking pumps are positive displacement pumps and
must be provided with some sort of pressure protection.
This may be a relief valve mounted directly on the pump,
an inline pressure relief valve, a torque limiting device or
a rupture disk.
2. There are relief valve options available on those pump
models designed to accept a relief valve. Options may
include a return to tank relief valve and a jacketed relief
valve. Pumps equipped with a jacketed head plate are
not available with a relief valve.
