1. Bolt tightening procedure

1.1 General

• New or re-used bolts shall be inspected to ensure they do not show any sign of yielding, thread
damage or excessive corrosion.

• Lubricant Molykote P37 shall be applied by a suitable brush along the bolt length and at the bolt
head/stub end shaft contact face.

IMPORTANT: TIGHTENING BOLTS USING HAMMERS AND FLOGGING SPANNERS IS NOT ALLOWED.

DANGER: BOTH TIGHTENING METHODS MAY BE CARRIED OUT USING HYDRAULIC POWERED
TOOLS. THESE HYDRAULIC TOOLS OPERATE UNDER EXTREMELY HIGH
PRESSURES. TO AVOID POSSIBILITY OF INJURY, ALWAYS OPERATE THIS
EQUIPMENT IN A SAFE AND PRUDENT MANNER.

1.2 Bolts tensioning sequences

Bolt tensioning shall be carried out using diagonal bolt tightening passes at 30%, 60% and 100% of the final
tightening load.
After tightening all bolting, wait 12 hours and check the torque. If there was a loss of torque, tighten them to
the required value and report to Modec/EEP. Wait another 12 hours and check again.

1.2.1 Screws at the tub end shaft/inner pipe connection

Bolts shall be numbered from 1 to 32 clockwise around the circle contour. Then, they shall be tightened in the
following order:

1 17 9 25 5 21 13 29 7 23 3 19 15 31 11 27

2 18 10 26 16 32 6 22 14 30 8 24 12 28 4 20

1.3 Bolt torque values

Bolts have to be torqued to the pre-tension value as mentioned in the table of chapter 3 . As the pre-tension
depends on the friction between the bolt and the hole, the pre-tension has to be measured (> M30)

• Grease the bolt thread and the bolt head support surface with “Molykote P37”.
• Mount the bolt with the load measuring ring and torque the bolt to the right pre-tension.
• Write down the required torque value.
• Dismount the bolt and repeat this procedure on 3 other bolt holes with 3 other bolts.
• Calculate the average required bolt torque to acquire the right pre-tension.
• Torque the remaining bolts with this torque value in the 3 described steps, mentioned underneath 2.2

Pre-tension has to be measured at least four times of each pitch circle of bolts.
Pre-tension has to be measured with a load measuring ring, the BoltSafe Sensor PMS (in the correct size),
and the SM-200 BoltSafe Handheld reader.

2. Torque M6-M64

- Measure the torque value from M30 and higher and note the values in a measuring report.
- Grease the thread and the bolt head support surface with “Molykote P37”
- Torque value based on a friction coëfficiënt of 0.09
