3.5.1. Aging of Preservation

Larger screw pumps and all pump/driver units have to be transported to
the installation site by means of lifting devices. Lifting and lowering of the
unit have to be done in a balanced manner. Cranes and Lifting devices
have to be large enough. It has to be assured that the unit will NOT ”tip

signed to accommodate the weight and size.
According to the preservation fluid manufacturer, the shelf life of TEC-
TYL 506 is 4 to 5 years at inside storage and 12--24 months at outside
storage; TECTYL 511 M is approx. 18 months at indoor storage only. By
mixing TECTYL 506 and 511 M 50/50, conservation preservation time of
2--1/2 -- 4 years indoors and 12 months outdoors can be expected.

4. Description of the Pump
4.1. General Description
The Leistritz Screw Pump of the L3NG Series is a low pressure pump. It
is a self priming positive displacement pump and used to move oils or
other lubricating products.
4.2. Assembly and Operation
Due to the special profile of the three turning spindles, sealed cavities
are produced. The double--lead power rotor (position 150) rotates, seal-
ing with the double--lead idler rotor (position 151) in the rotor bore of the
pump casing (position 001) which encloses the rotor set with tight toler-
ances.
The motion of the two idler rotors is caused by the calculated hydraulic
forces leaving only the resulting moment caused by the fluid friction to
be transmitted over the flanks of the rotor profile. Therefore, the rotor set
is almost without any load and will not wear out. With this principal the
pumps continually move fluid without sheer and turbulence from the suc-
tion to the discharge side. This constructive design in working principle
assures a low noise level and an almost pulsation free discharge.
The complete spindle geometry is chosen in a way that no axial thrust is
effected on the ball bearing (position number 170). The ball bearing
(position number 170) fixes the driving spindle (position number 150) in
axial direction.
The bearing application of the idler spindles (position number 151) is ef-
fected in the pump casing (position number 001).
Depending on the operating pressure, an appropriate choke gap is built
between the balancing piston of the driving spindle (position number
150) and the idler spindles (position number 151), which guarantees the
hydrodynamic bearing of the idler spindles.
The successive area is balanced in direction to the driving side. Pene-
trating leakage oil is being inducted to the lub--oil circle on motor side.
By this geometric design of the spindle package the axial thrust balanc-
ing is guaranteed.
4.3. Construction of the Parts
4.3.1. Pump casing
The pump casing has been designed specially for mounting on diesel
motors. Design and dimensions can be seen from the particular valid di-
mension sheets.The suction area will be closed off with the non--drive
side cover (position number 30). The pump casing has a fixing flange on
driving side which enables a direct mounting. The pump is designed with
an integrated or an externally--mounted pressure relief valve and has a
second connection for mounting an external pressure control valve.
The relief valve protects the pump only against overload
and is not meant to be used as a pressure regulating valve!
Operation and manual of the pressure regulating valves,
see section 4.3.8. The pump casing can be drained . There-
fore, check before start up on eventually not plugged openings.
On the suction and pressure connection the casting is
executed with a flow direction arrow. Before start up the flow
direction needs to be checked. Pay attention that the pump
can drain during alignment of the pumps (hanging down-
wards) -- (see chapter 6 commissioning).
4.3.2. Rotor Set
The power rotor (position number 150) is double--lead, hardened and ax-
ially positioned with a ball bearing (position number 170). The idler rotors
(position number 151) double--lead as well, hardened or un--hardened,
are paired to the power rotor. During operation both idler spindles are
pushed in axial direction against the driving side balancing piston of the
driving spindle (position number 150).
E 185 5709_en_Rev0_20.10.2009
L3NG
4.3.3. Shaft Sealing
The shaft entrance of the driving spindle from the pump casing to the
driving pin is designed sealless. Medium leakage due to the operating
conditions is being conveyed directly to the lubrication system of the die-
sel motor.
4.3.4. Casing Gasketing
The pump is sealed off using gasket (pos. 031, 210), o--ring (pos. 46) and
seals rings (pos. 004, 006) depending on the operating conditions and
the pumped products.
4.3.5. Bearing
Axially through a maintenance--free deep groove ball bearing, mounted
inside the sealed area of the pump, located on the driving spindle and the
pump housing. This bearing is continually being flushed and lubricated
with the flow medium.
4.3.6. End Cover
The end side cover (position number 030) shuts the pump casing (posi-
tion number 001) on suction side.
4.3.7. Connection for an external pressure control valve
The pump casing can be equipped with a pressure and recirculation
connection for an external pressure control valve (see pump dimension
sheet). This pressure control valve of a positive displacement pump has
to keep the discharge pressure at the delivery connection steady and to
regulate it respectively, regardless of total delivery.
4.3.8. Pressure Relief Valve
The pump can be designed with an integrated or an externally--mounted
pressure relief valve as described on 4.3.1. (option).
For the variant ”without valve” the valve connection is locked.
Exceeding the adjusted values, the poppet (position number 219) lifts
from the seat and the product circulates into the suction area of the pump
casing. The opening pressure is adjusted by compressing the valve
spring (position number 235) with the adjustment screw (position num-
ber 222) at the factory or at the user, depending on the requirement.
Notice to the valve adjusting pressures see chapter 7.5.1
Using the pump with a pressure limitation
valve, care should be taken that the poppet will
always stay movable in its axis. A complete
closing of the valve bore by means its of lock-
ing the adjustment screw and the connected valves spring by complete
compression, shall not be allowed, since this could cause damage to the
pump.
In order to set the pressure the previewed external pressure control
valve has to be used.
4.3.9. Nozzles
Suction and discharge connection are executed as a DIN-- flanged con-
nection, marked with flow direction arrows . Weldneck counter flanges
according DIN can be supplied with a price adder.
Maximum allowable forces and moments depend on the
pump size, and are listed on the dimension sheets or on
installation drawings. These values shall never be ex-
ceeded. Connections for drain, vent or heating, if not
needed, need to be plugged before start up.
4.3.10. Drive
The pump is being driven directly by a gear of the diesel motor. The driv-
ing torque is being transferred with the gear to the driving pin of the driv-
ing spindle (pos. 150) by a particular clamping unit.
Pay attention to a correct sense of rotation and a proper fit-
ting position of the pump !
4.4. Dimensioning and Geometry
4.4.1. Standard Dimension Drawings
The main dimensions of the pump with the connection dimensions are
stated on the diverse dimensional sheets. The documents valid for this

The shaft end of the pump and driver have to be aligned
carefully, since eccentricity, non--parallelisms and plain ar-
rows will fast destroy transmission elements and can fur-
thermore cause damage to the pump. Mounting the pump to
a driver, care should be taken that the max. axial shift (distance between
shafts) the maximum eccentricity (center offset between the shafts) and
the maximum angularity of the two shafts do not exceed the recom-
mended data of the manufacturers. Axial forces are not allowed to be
transmitted into the pump.
Impacts and knocks on the driving spindle have to be avoided.
All rotating parts have to be protected against
unintentional touch! Damages caused by im-
proper mounting or adjustment of the pump
and motor, are not covered under warranty.
5.3. Initial Installation of the Pump Unit
The pump unit has to be inspected at the job site for probable damages. If
the unit is assembled at the job site, follow 5.2. After proper alignment,
the complete unit has to be anchored accordingly. Base and founda-

7. Maintenance
7.1. General
The maintenance work almost exclusively includes checking of pump
parts for wear and damage. Leistritz Screw Pumps of the Series L3NG
need minimum maintenance, as long as the confirmed operating data is
adhered to and the fluid is as free as possible from abrasive particles.
The cleanliness and the capability to lubricate the product, are dominant
in the expectancy life of a pump. If a high operation safety is necessary,
we recommend the following maintenance intervals according to section
7.2.
7.2. Maintenance and Inspection
S After 500 hours of operation the pump should be ex-
amined, the pump should be checked for unusual noises
and it shall be checked with a temperature sensor. The
temperature difference between the area on driven and
driving side has to be determined. The temperature dif-
ference should not exceed 10--15°C.
S After 24.000 hours the pump should be disassembled and all inner
parts should be examined for damage and wear. The running surfa-
ces on the face of the driving spindle have to be checked whether they
are probably worn out. Parts which are worn out always have to be
exchanged.
If no other agreement has been made, the valve actuation pressure is
pre--set at the factory on the test bench. The opening pressure is approx.
10 to 20 % above the operating pressure. However, the values on the
system must be checked prior to commissioning.
The following distinction is made for valves:
S Valve actuating pressure; this is the pressure at which the valve be-
gins to open.
S Valve short-- circuit pressure; this is the pressure at which the entire
pump feed quantity flows off via the valve.
S Valve closing pressure; this is the pressure at which the valve has
closed again following relief.
It must be noted that at low operation pressures, the adjustment values
are selected so that the valve closing pressure is always above the
operating pressure and the valve short-- circuit pressure does not
lead to overloading of the pump and drive.
If this is not observed, damage to the pump and drive may result.
We shall assume no liability whatsoever for
Attention damage resulting from a failure to observe
this fact.

8. Trouble Shooting Solving all of the particular disturbances the

pump needs to be without system pressure
8.1. Table to define Reason and solving of Problems and needs to be drained.
The table below is used to define possible disturbances at the pump unit.
If problems occur during operation of the unit, which are not listed in the
trouble shooting list, we recommend a check back with the factory or the
sales forces.

Problems at the pump unit

Pressure and flow rate too low
Pump does not lift discharge

Noise creation in the pump

Motor over loaded

Fluctuating flow

Pump is seized

Unit vibrates
Pump leaks

Reasons and Resolution

Compare rotation direction arrow of the pump with the motor direction of rotation, prob-
ably incorrect pump arrangement.
Check suction pipelines, stopcocks for leaks and setting of pressure relief valve.
Vacuum suction head to high, shorten suction pipeline, mount pump at a lower posi-
tion. Reduce flow turbulence, lay suction pipelines straighter.
System and pump are empty. Fill tank with media.
Discharge pressure too high. Check operating data of pump, media viscosity.
Compare operating data. Heat media if necessary.
Viscosity too low. Compare operating data, increase drive speed as required. Select
a pump with steeper spindle pitch or next larger size of motor. Increase media viscosity
by changing media temperature.
During operation the media tank was not filled with media.
Air bubbles in suction and discharge system. Vent pump at highest point. Select a
larger media tank with better deaerating characteristics. Submerge return line under
the media level in the tank.
Shafts or spindles have seized in the housing borings. If the surfaces are only slightly
damaged these can be honed or lapped. Check operating data and do no exceed.
Internal parts of pump worn, fit spare parts, fill with media or change filter insert, monitor
operating characteristics and do not exceed.
Pump not proper aligned and mounted, new alignment,check centering.
Connection lines are under tension. Refit lines in a tension free manner. If necessary
fit compensators into the lines. Support and secure pressure lines.
Ball or roller bearings defective, dismantle and replace.
