Section I: Summary
2G, 2H and 2W twin screw pump is a kind of Positive Displacement Rotary Pump, which can handle the
liquid with viscosity below 3000mm2/s(cSt). The pump consists of two spindles rotating in opposition.
During pumps working, a pair of screws fixed on two shafts get in mesh and form seal cavity against
pumps inner chamber. With rotating of two spindles, liquid in seal cavity moves axially and is transferred
from inlet stably and continuously to outlet of the pump.
2G single-suction twin screw pump and 2HM,2WM double-suction twin screw pump are designed with
external bearing and pumps chamber is separated from bearing chamber by mechanical seal and
framework oil seal, therefore which can transfer liquids with or without lubricity as well as liquids with
high-viscosity. Material normally used for rotary ring and stationary ring of mechanical seal: TC(or
ceramic) and Graphite.
2HE and 2HM twin screw pumps are designed with internal bearing. Pumps chamber is conjunct with
bearing chamber and they are mainly for transferring liquids with lubricity. Material normally used for
rotary ring and stationary ring of mechanical seal: A. TC and TC. B. TC(or ceramic) and Graphite.
Pumps spindle is made up of screws and separated shaft processed by high-strength alloy steel or
stainless steel for meeting the working conditions upon big power and big torque. Different metals such
as Nodular Cast Iron, Nitrided Steel and Stainless Steel are selected for screws to meet the requirement to
transfer different liquids.
Timing gear is adopted to pass the power from driving shaft to driven shaft, which enables two spindles to
rotate synchronously during their meshing, therefore low wear and big reliability.
Special construction is designed at pumps inlet to ensure uniform flow of the suctioned liquid and low
pressure loss, therefore the pump has small NPSHr. And position of inlet and outlet can keep enough
liquid inside the pump when it stops working, so the pump is good self-priming.
Wetted parts of the pump should be selected according the chemical property of the liquid to pump: for
liquids without erosion or unclean liquids, to use general steel or iron; for liquids with erosion or clean
liquids, to use suitable stainless steel; for explosive or flammable liquids, such as gasoline, toluene, to use
bronze; for liquids with small solids, to use high-rigidity nitrided steel; for special requirement for
material, please indicate when ordering.

2-2. Stevedoring
Lifting pump: infix one end of steel cable into lifting hole of casing or bearing support and infix
the other end of steel cable into hoop of motor or hoop indicated on base plate.
3-1. Location
The installation site should close to oil pool. Pump room should be dry and has enough space for
installing and repairing. One-meter space around pump should be left for repair, better still bigger
space if possible.
3-2. Base
The pump should be installed on firm cement base whose thickness is no less than 30-50cm, subject
to the size of pump set. And square hole (12x12cm) should be set ahead in cement base according to
the position of stone bolt of pump set. Put the pump set on base after the cement is solidified and take
the second grouting after stone bolt fixed.
If the pump is installed on steel deck or other buildings, it should be installed on them directly and to
be as close to primary component as possible, besides to add support to avoid deforming and vibrating.
Required area for installation and position for stone bolt should follow the outline dimension supplied
by our company.
3-3. Installation
Fix the pump set on base with stone bolt and check up the fastening between pump, motor and base.
Check and adjust the alignment of coupling: turn coupling by hand to confirm if it rotates smoothly.
Pease refer to the following demonstration as two methods to align coupling:
2. Check Valve. Check valve or globe valve is usually mounted with discharge pipe to prevent back
flow from impacting pump after pump stalls. When several pumps are installed in parallel, only
with check valve can pumps are started respectively.
In case of long pipe line limited to installing field, the check valve can be mounted on the end of
suction pipe to reduce resistance of oil-sucking and improve pumps self-priming. (pump is
suggested to be installed close to oil tank to shorten the pipe line)
3. Safety Valve. Both of single-suction and double-suction twin screw pump are mounted with safety
valve. Opening pressure is five times the rated working pressure of pump.
4. Pressure Gauge. Compound gauge and pressure gauge can be fixed at flanges of inlet and outlet to
monitor pumps working condition and standard of screw hole is M14x1.5. Measuring range of
pressure gauge is 1.5-2 times the rated working pressure of pump.
Gear and bearing will be damaged when pump works with absence of oil in gear box.
Section V: Heating & Cooling
To meet the requirement to handle various liquids, heating and cooling devices are mounted in
2HM&2WM series double-suction twin screw pump, and user can infuse steam or cooling water if
required.(please indicate when order)
Steam jacket is at the foot of pump, heated by steam or heat conducting oil. It is usually required when
handling high-viscosity liquid which is to be solidified at normal temperature. Pressure of steam or heat
conducting oil is usually below 0.6MPa.
Cooling box is at the cover of gear box and it cool the gear box with circulating water. Pressure of cooling
water is usually below 0.3Mpa and its flow rate is 2-3m3/h. Cooling device is usually needed when
handling flammable, explosive liquids or volatile liquids. Stainless steel gear box is required if sea water
is used for circulating water (please indicate when order).
2. Examine whether there is enough medium liquids inside pump and it is strictly forbidden to start
pump when there is no or less liquid in pump.
3. Examine if the oil in gear box is enough. Overfull engine oil will cause overheating of the gear box
and lacking will damage gear and bearing.
4. Examine the rotation direction of pump, which should be in accordance with the indication in name
plate while inching pump. Conventional rotation direction of the shaft: clockwise facing to shaft (if
not specified).
5. Examine if the inlet and outlet are in correct position. 2G series pump: the inlet is on the top;
2HE&2HM series pump: facing to shaft, the inlet is at right-side; 2WE&2WM: outlet is on the top.
(special requirement excluded)
6. Examine the situation of opening and closing of valves.
6-2. Starting
1. Open all the valves in the suction & discharge pipe line
2. Start motor(engine).
6-3. Running
1. Check up if there is any abnormal noise and vibration during pumps test running. Any of these
problems must be solved immediately.
2. Check up if there is abnormal temperature-rising with pump, bearing support and gear box
( normally not exceed 75oC). Surface temperature of bearing support and gear box is allowed up to
75oC and invariable temperature within this range is the best indicator for pumps running well. If
the temperature rises suddenly, it indicates the problems with bearing or gear box, which needs to
be checked immediately.
3. Check up if there is any leakage with mechanical seal.
4. Pump is usually thought to be qualified after one-hour test running without problem, and then it
can be put into use.
6-4. Stopping
Cut off power supply and close valves in pipe line.
1. Check whether the engine oil in gear box is enough before staring pump and replenish it if
necessary.
2. Check if there is any abnormal noise and vibration.
3. Check if there is leakage when pump is working For mechanical seal, it is allowed to have a little
leakage (2~5 drops every minute) and it must be exchanged or repaired when leakage increases
largely.
4. Check regularly if the indicating value of compound gauge and pressure gauge is in normal range.
5. Please refer to Notes on Handling High-viscosity Liquids for maintaining pump to handle
high-viscosity liquid.
8-3. Yearly Maintenance
1. Examine if the nuts on base and all the bolts are fastened. Check the alignment of the coupling and
turn it by hand to confirm if it rotates smoothly.
2. Clean up pump, replace grease in bearing and engine oil in gear box.
3. Examine the capacity and pressure of the pump. Overhaul the pump or replace damaged parts if
capacity and pressure declines largely and do not dismantle the pump if still in good performance.
Section X: How to Dismantle
It is required to drain the medium liquid residual in pump chamber and the lube oil in gear box before
replacing mechanical seal, framework oil sea or repairing pump, and then pump can be dismantled.
Procedure to dismantle 2H&2W series pump is as below:
10-3. Put enough 1# Calcium Base Grease or Lithium Base Grease on oil seal and in bearing chamber
when reassembling. Notice to check if oil seal lip is inside-out and if O-ring is cut after mounted.
10-4. Clean out carefully pump chamber, screws and possible burrs and scratches at each joint,
assemble the pump as it be with gaskets. It will be approved if the driving shaft rotates smoothly
upon being turned by hand or wrench.
10-5. Put enough clean lube oil into gear box and infuse adequate medium liquid in to pump chamber.
10-6. Connect pump with coupling. Bifid couplings should be in good alignment and pins should can be
inserted the holes of bifid couplings successfully. After connection, turn the coupling by hand in 1
or 2 rounds and if found to rotate smoothly then the pump can be started.
Procedure to dismantle 2G series single-suction twin screw pump: disconnect pipesloosen the nuts
connecting pump body and bearing supportget down pump body for repair
Due to complicated construction and multi-sealing faces, twin screw pump might have oil-leakage if
assembled improperly, even out of order. Therefore, it is required to be care of the procedure of
disassembling and assembling, better still if finding accomplished technician to do the job.
