Suction Barrel Installation Recommendations<br />

Correct installation of the suction barrel is critical to proper and trouble free operation<br />

of the vertical turbine pump. The barrel must be plumbed (vertical) so the pump and<br />

column are centered in the barrel. More critical is the level of the barrel’s top flange.<br />

An unlevel barrel top flange can lead to excessive vibration resulting in reduced life of<br />

the bearings and voiding the pump warranty.<br />

The barrel must be plumb within 0.015 inches / foot of barrel length along the entire<br />

length of the barrel. Once positioned plumb, the barrel must be secured and held<br />

plumb through out the back filling operation. Anchor bolt holes are generally<br />

provided in or near the bottom plate. Using nuts above and below the anchor plate,<br />

the barrel may be adjusted. The anchor bolts are not always sufficient to hold the<br />

barrel in place, so guy wires near the barrel top are recommended for holding the<br />

barrel in place.<br />

For barrels with top flanges which are seal welded to the barrel, the top flange must<br />

be held level at the same time and through out the back filling process.


Barrel Flange Welding and Leveling Procedure<br />

a. Required Equipment<br />

a.1. Machinist level accurate to 0.0005” minimum<br />

a.2. 123 precision blocks<br />

a.3. Precision straight edge (long enough to span barrel opening)<br />

b. This procedure generally requires two persons. A millwright type<br />

person, referred to as the “leveler”. The second person is a qualified<br />

welder.<br />

b.1. The elevation should be verified prior to starting.<br />

b.2. The flange should be at ambient temperature and in complete<br />

sun or complete shade during entire process.<br />

c. The leveler finds highest point on flange. Once highest point is found all<br />

other tacks are removed. Starting at the low point, with the opposite high<br />

point still tacked, begin jacking up flange. Stop a few thousands below<br />

level, because the tack weld will cause the flange to rise. Tacking is done<br />

on top side of flange. The amount of rise will depend on the size of the tack<br />

and the size of the gap, if any. If it draws up to much you cut the tack out<br />

and start a little lower. This is a trial and error process. Once you have this<br />

point level and tacked then you turn 90 degrees.<br />

d. Repeat previous steps, tacking high side and jacking up low side until<br />

the flange is level. When this is accomplished, proceed on 45 degrees and<br />

on very large O.D. pipe, you may have to go to 22-1/2 degrees increments.<br />

e. When all sides have been leveled and tacked, recheck level at least on<br />

center line of suction and 90 degrees, preferably all the way around the<br />

flange.<br />

f. Now the welder is ready to start welding out top side. The quartering and<br />

back step method is recommended. For instance, if you call the suction<br />

center line 12 O-clock, then you weld about 3” there and move to 6 O-clock<br />

and weld 3”, go to 3 O-clock and then 9 O-clock. Remembering while<br />

welder is welding, he stops and allows leveler to check and make sure<br />

flange is not moving out of tolerances. Continue welding in above<br />

mentioned pattern until top joint is complete.<br />

g. Now the welder can seal weld the bottom side of flange to pipe using as<br />

small of pass as possible to minimize warping. There are many variables<br />

that affect this procedure and much has to be dealt with through<br />

experience and good common sense. For instance, if there is a larger gap<br />

on one side, it may draw more than the other side. The welder may have to<br />

put a larger weld or a couple of passes on the side that draws less. Also,<br />

while welding out, if the leveler finds that flange has been drawn up to<br />

much in one spot and it has been welded too much to try to cut loose, the<br />

welder can try to weld the underside to try to get it to draw down.<br />

h. This is a trial and error procedure to achieve the levelness specified on<br />

the drawing.


Procedure for Checking Level<br />

After the top flange is completely welded to the barrel and prior to the top flange<br />

grouting and pump installation, the top flange level must be verified by Smith Pump<br />

Company personnel.<br />

a. Required Equipment<br />

a.1. Machinist level accurate to 0.0005” minimum.<br />

a.2. 123 precision blocks<br />

a.3. Precision straight edge (long enough to span barrel opening)<br />

b. The top flange surface must be clean, smooth and free of loose particles.<br />

b.1. The elevation should be verified prior to starting.<br />

b.2. The flange should be at ambient temperature and in complete sun or<br />

complete shade during entire process.<br />

c. Using a machinist level and precision straight edge, that person will place 123<br />

blocks at the positions as shown above and measure the levelness in line and<br />

perpendicular to the barrel suction. On larger barrels and flanges, the level is also<br />

checked at 45 degrees from suction. Shims will be added to the low side to center the<br />

bubble of the level.<br />

d. The slope of the top flange is equal to the shim thickness, in inches, divided by the<br />

distance between the 123 blocks, in feet. The dimensions are recorded as part of the<br />

start-up report. The minimal acceptable slope is 0.<strong>001</strong> inches per foot in any<br />

direction. Slope exceeding these criteria must be corrected prior to grouting.<br />

e. It is recommended that the Contractor verify the top flange level prior to requesting<br />

Smith Pump Company personnel come to the site.<br />

Grouting Recommendations<br />

a. Always shim near the foundation bolts at each side and then back off the leveling<br />

nuts. Then tighten the foundation nuts. If done otherwise, there is a risk of<br />

significantly lowering the structural natural frequency that could result in separation of<br />

the base from the grout and vibration problems.


. If leveling nuts are used to level the base, they must be backed off as far as<br />

possible prior to grouting.<br />

c. Allow grout to set or cure for 72- 80 hours, then recheck flange level using above<br />

procedure before installing the pump.<br />

d. The minimal acceptable slope is 0.002 inches per foot in any direction after<br />

grouting is cured.<br />

Notes:<br />

1. If recommended flange level is not maintained throughout back filling and<br />

grouting operation, corrective action must be performed, at the Contractor’s<br />

expense.<br />

2. These recommendations do not over rule the Engineer’s requirements.<br />

Add four (4) fluid ounces of 44-700 per gallon of Part A while Part A is under agitation.<br />

4. Add Part A to Part B under agitation, stir until thoroughly mixed.<br />

5. Both components must be above 50°F (10°C) prior to mixing. For application of the unaccelerated<br />

version to surfaces between 50°F to 60°F (10°C to 16°C) or the accelerated version to surfaces between<br />

35°F to 50°F (2°C to 10°C), allow mixed material to stand 30 minutes and restir before using.<br />

6. For optimum application properties, the material temperature should be above 60°F (16°C).<br />

Note: The use of more than the recommended amount of 44-700 will adversely affect performance.<br />

Suction Barrel Installation Recommendations<br />

Correct installation of the suction barrel is critical to proper and trouble free operation<br />

of the vertical turbine pump. The barrel must be plumbed (vertical) so the pump and<br />

column are centered in the barrel. More critical is the level of the barrel’s top flange.<br />

An unlevel barrel top flange can lead to excessive vibration resulting in reduced life of<br />

the bearings and voiding the pump warranty.<br />

The barrel must be plumb within 0.015 inches / foot of barrel length along the entire<br />

length of the barrel. Once positioned plumb, the barrel must be secured and held<br />

plumb through out the back filling operation. Anchor bolt holes are generally<br />

provided in or near the bottom plate. Using nuts above and below the anchor plate,<br />

the barrel may be adjusted. The anchor bolts are not always sufficient to hold the<br />

barrel in place, so guy wires near the barrel top are recommended for holding the<br />

barrel in place.<br />

For barrels with top flanges which are seal welded to the barrel, the top flange must<br />

be held level at the same time and through out the back filling process.


Barrel Flange Welding and Leveling Procedure<br />

a. Required Equipment<br />

a.1. Machinist level accurate to 0.0005” minimum<br />

a.2. 123 precision blocks<br />

a.3. Precision straight edge (long enough to span barrel opening)<br />

b. This procedure generally requires two persons. A millwright type<br />

person, referred to as the “leveler”. The second person is a qualified<br />

welder.<br />

b.1. The elevation should be verified prior to starting.<br />

b.2. The flange should be at ambient temperature and in complete<br />

sun or complete shade during entire process.<br />

c. The leveler finds highest point on flange. Once highest point is found all<br />

other tacks are removed. Starting at the low point, with the opposite high<br />

point still tacked, begin jacking up flange. Stop a few thousands below<br />

level, because the tack weld will cause the flange to rise. Tacking is done<br />

on top side of flange. The amount of rise will depend on the size of the tack<br />

and the size of the gap, if any. If it draws up to much you cut the tack out<br />

and start a little lower. This is a trial and error process. Once you have this<br />

point level and tacked then you turn 90 degrees.<br />

d. Repeat previous steps, tacking high side and jacking up low side until<br />

the flange is level. When this is accomplished, proceed on 45 degrees and<br />

on very large O.D. pipe, you may have to go to 22-1/2 degrees increments.<br />

e. When all sides have been leveled and tacked, recheck level at least on<br />

center line of suction and 90 degrees, preferably all the way around the<br />

flange.<br />

f. Now the welder is ready to start welding out top side. The quartering and<br />

back step method is recommended. For instance, if you call the suction<br />

center line 12 O-clock, then you weld about 3” there and move to 6 O-clock<br />

and weld 3”, go to 3 O-clock and then 9 O-clock. Remembering while<br />

welder is welding, he stops and allows leveler to check and make sure<br />

flange is not moving out of tolerances. Continue welding in above<br />

mentioned pattern until top joint is complete.<br />

g. Now the welder can seal weld the bottom side of flange to pipe using as<br />

small of pass as possible to minimize warping. There are many variables<br />

that affect this procedure and much has to be dealt with through<br />

experience and good common sense. For instance, if there is a larger gap<br />

on one side, it may draw more than the other side. The welder may have to<br />

put a larger weld or a couple of passes on the side that draws less. Also,<br />

while welding out, if the leveler finds that flange has been drawn up to<br />

much in one spot and it has been welded too much to try to cut loose, the<br />

welder can try to weld the underside to try to get it to draw down.<br />

h. This is a trial and error procedure to achieve the levelness specified on<br />

the drawing.


Procedure for Checking Level<br />

After the top flange is completely welded to the barrel and prior to the top flange<br />

grouting and pump installation, the top flange level must be verified by Smith Pump<br />

Company personnel.<br />

a. Required Equipment<br />

a.1. Machinist level accurate to 0.0005” minimum.<br />

a.2. 123 precision blocks<br />

a.3. Precision straight edge (long enough to span barrel opening)<br />

b. The top flange surface must be clean, smooth and free of loose particles.<br />

b.1. The elevation should be verified prior to starting.<br />

b.2. The flange should be at ambient temperature and in complete sun or<br />

complete shade during entire process.<br />

c. Using a machinist level and precision straight edge, that person will place 123<br />

blocks at the positions as shown above and measure the levelness in line and<br />

perpendicular to the barrel suction. On larger barrels and flanges, the level is also<br />

checked at 45 degrees from suction. Shims will be added to the low side to center the<br />

bubble of the level.<br />

d. The slope of the top flange is equal to the shim thickness, in inches, divided by the<br />

distance between the 123 blocks, in feet. The dimensions are recorded as part of the<br />

start-up report. The minimal acceptable slope is 0.<strong>001</strong> inches per foot in any<br />

direction. Slope exceeding these criteria must be corrected prior to grouting.<br />

e. It is recommended that the Contractor verify the top flange level prior to requesting<br />

Smith Pump Company personnel come to the site.<br />

Grouting Recommendations<br />

a. Always shim near the foundation bolts at each side and then back off the leveling<br />

nuts. Then tighten the foundation nuts. If done otherwise, there is a risk of<br />

significantly lowering the structural natural frequency that could result in separation of<br />

the base from the grout and vibration problems.


. If leveling nuts are used to level the base, they must be backed off as far as<br />

possible prior to grouting.<br />

c. Allow grout to set or cure for 72- 80 hours, then recheck flange level using above<br />

procedure before installing the pump.<br />

d. The minimal acceptable slope is 0.002 inches per foot in any direction after<br />

grouting is cured.<br />

Notes:<br />

1. If recommended flange level is not maintained throughout back filling and<br />

grouting operation, corrective action must be performed, at the Contractor’s<br />

expense.<br />

2. These recommendations do not over rule the Engineer’s requirements.<br />
