Checking the Condition of the Pump

Examine the components carefully to make sure no damage has occurred during shipment.

The Grundfos LM/LP pump should remain in its shipping carton until it is ready to be installed. This

carton is specially designed to protect it from damage. During unpacking and prior to installation,

care should be taken to ensure the pump is not dropped or mishandled. Immediately report in writ-

ing any damage to the transportation company and ask to have it inspected. Do not destroy packing

materials until shipment is inspected and the claim settled.

Pre-Installation Checklist

Before beginning installation procedure, check that the proper operating conditions for the

pump are present.

Installation Procedures

Select Pump Location

Thepumpshouldbelocatedinadry, well ventilated area which is not subject to freezing or extreme

variation in temperature. Care must be taken to ensure the pump is mounted at least six (6) inches

(152 mm) clear of any obstruction or hot surfaces. The motor requires an adequate air supply to

prevent overheating and should not be totally enclosed. For open systems requiring suction lift,

the pump should be located as close to the water source as possible to reduce pumping losses.

Pump Support

LM/LPpumpsaresuitableforoor,wallordirectpipelinemounting.Concreteorsimilarsolidfoun-

dationmaterialshouldbeusedforoormounting.Adequatesteelbracketsshouldbeusedforwall

mounting. The pipe on each side of the pump must be adequately supported for pipeline mounting.

The LM/LP pumps (except 3.0 LP6 and 4.0 LP5) have two tapped holes in the bottom of the pump

housing to allow the pump to be secured to a mounting bracket. Make sure the pump is secure to

themountingbracketandthemountingbracketisrmlyattachedtotheoororwall.

See Figure 1. In open systems, install suction

piping to minimize friction losses and avoid air

pockets. See Figure 2. Size discharge piping to

reduceuidvelocitiesandminimizefrictionlosses.

It is suggested that isolation valves be installed on

also suggested that a check valve be installed in

thedischargepipe.Apluggedteeorcappedpipe

should be mounted in the suction line to ll the

pump and pipe before start-up especially if the

The pump and/or piping should be adequately supported on both sides to reduce thermal and me-

chanicalstressesonthepump.Ifpumps are installed close tonoisesensitiveareas,itisadvisableto

use pump and piping vibration isolators to prevent vibration from being transmitted to the structure.

Abypassorpressurereliefvalveshouldbeinstalledinthedischargepipeifthereisanypossibility

the pump may operate against a closed valve in the discharge line. Circulation through the pump

isrequiredtoensureadequatecoolingandlubricationofthepump.SeeTableAforminimumow

rates. The bypass should be routed back to a heat dissipating source or to a drain depending on

the liquid being pumped and local codes. Control of the bypass can be made by using a pressure

relief valve or thermostatic control valve.

Position of

Terminal Box

The motor terminal box can be turned

to any of four positions in 90° steps. To

rotatetheterminalbox,remove the four

bolts securing the motor to the pump

(do not remove the shaft coupling),

turn the motor to the desired location;

replace and securely tighten the four

bolts. See Figure 3.

Verify Electrical

Requirements

Vericationofthe electrical supply should be made to be certain the voltage, phase and frequency

match that of the pump motor. The proper operating voltage and other electrical information can

be found on the motor nameplate. These motors are designed to run on ±10% of the nameplate-

rated voltage. For multi-voltage motors, the motor should be internally connected to operate on

the voltage closest to the 10% rating, i.e., a 208 voltage motor wired per the 208 volt connection

diagram. Wiring connection diagrams can be found on plates attached to the motor.

If voltage variations are larger than ±10%, do not operate the pump.

Field Wiring

Wire sizes should be based on the current carrying properties of a conductor as required by the

latest edition of the National Electrical Code or local regulations.

Direct on line (D.O.L.) starting is approved due to the extremely fast run-up time of the motor and

the low moment of the inertia of pump and motor. If D.O.L. starting is not acceptable and reduced

starting current is required, an auto transformer or resistance starter should be used.

It is suggested that a fused disconnect be used for each pump where service and stand by pumps

are installed.

Motor Protection

A. Single-Phase Motors:

With the exception of 7½ and 10 HP motors which require external protection, single phase LM/

LP pumps are equipped with multi-voltage, open-drip proof (O.D.P.) squirrel-cage induction motors

with built-in thermal protection.

B. Three-Phase Motors:

LM/LP Pumps with three-phase motors must use the proper size and type of motor-starter to en-

sure the motor is protected against damage from low voltage, phase failure, current imbalance and

overloads.Aproperlysizedstarterwithmanualresetandambient-compensatedextraquicktrip

in all three legs should be used. The overload should be sized and adjusted to trip at the full-load

current rating of the motor. If the motor is lightly loaded, the overload should be resized or adjusted

toalowervalue.Undernocircumstancesshouldtheoverloadsbesettoahighervaluethanthe

full load current shown on the motor nameplate. This will void the warranty.

Starting the Pump the First Time

After the pump has been installed, wired and the system lled, the following procedures must

be performed. Do not start the pump before priming or venting. Never operate the pump dry.

4. Verifythattheelectricalconnectionsareinaccordancewiththewiringdiagramonthemotor;

5. Switch the power on and observe the direction of rotation. WHEN VIEWED FROM THE MO-

TOR END, THE PUMP SHOULD ROTATE COUNTERCLOCKWISE;

6. Toreversethedirectionofrotation,rstswitchOFFthesupplypower;

7. On three-phase motors, interchange any two power leads at the load side of the starter. On

single-phase motors, see connection diagram on nameplate. Change wiring as required;

8. Switch on the power again and check for proper motor rotation.

Starting and Adjusting

Before starting the pump, please check that the:

1. Pump is primed;

2. Direction of rotation is counterclockwise when viewed from the motor end;

3. Allpipingconnectionsaretightandadequatelysupported;

4. Suction line isolation valve is completely opened, in a valve has been installed.

For initial starting:

1. The isolation valve in the discharge pipe should be closed and gradually opened after the

pump is turned on. Opening this valve to fast may result in some water hammering in the

discharge pipe. During operation, be sure this valve is completely open;

2. Checkandrecordthevoltageandamperageofthemotor.Adjustthemotoroverloadsifre-

quired;

3. Check and record operating pressures if pressure gauges have been installed;

4. Check all controls for proper operation. If pump is controlled by a pressure switch, check and

adjust the cut-in and cut-out pressure. If low-water level controls are used, be sure the low-

level switch is properly adjusted so the pump cannot run if the pump should break suction.

Operating Parameters

Grundfos LM/LP in-line centrifugal pumps installed in accordance with these instructions and sized

forcorrectperformancewilloperateefcientlyandprovideyearsofservice.Thepumpsareproduc-

tion lubricated and do not require any external lubrication or inspection. The motors will require

periodic lubrication as noted in the following Maintenance Section.

Undernocircumstancesshouldthepumpbeoperatedforanyprolongedperiodsoftimewithout

owthroughthepump.Thiscanresultinmotorandpumpdamageduetooverheating.Aproperly

sizedreliefvalveshouldbeinstalledtoallowsufcientwatertocirculatethroughthepumptoprovide

adequate cooling and lubrication of the pump bearing and seals.

Pump Cycling

Pump cycling should be checked to ensure the pump is not starting more than 20 times per hour

on ½ to 5 HP models; 15 times per hour on 7½ to 15 HP models; and 10 times per hour on 20 to

40HPmodels.Rapidcyclingisamajorcauseofprematuremotorfailureduetoincreasedheat

buildup in the motor. If necessary, adjust controls to reduce the frequency of starts and stops.

How to Measure

By means of a volt meter, which

has been set to the proper scale,

measure the voltage at the pump

terminal box or starter.

On three-phase units, measure

between the legs (phases).

What it Means

Whenthemotorisunderload,thevoltage

should be within ±10% of the nameplate

voltage. Larger voltage variation may

cause winding damage.

Large variations in the voltage indicate

a poor electrical supply and the pump

should not be operated until these varia-

tions have been corrected.

If the voltage constantly remains high or

low, the motor should be changed to cor-

rect the power supply.
