Coupling Submersible Motor to Pump

1. Coupling Submersible Motor to Pump in 6 Easy Steps To couple the submersible motor and pump, follow the following procedure: Erect the tripod with a chain block. Open submersible pump, remove strainer and cable guard. Vertically erect the submersible motor. Use the grub screw to couple the motor/pump shaft Apply threading mixture to the internal thread of the delivery casing and external area of the short length delivery pipe. Use the screw to fit the delivery casing with a short length of delivery pipe. Lift the shaft when assembled to examine the play. The coupling is mounted on the motor shaft for some products, while for others it’s fixed to the pump shaft by a grub screw. Carefully lower the pump with coupling mounted on the shaft to align it correctly until the bottom of the inlet bracket sits on the top housing. Additionally, the studs on top housing should easily pass through the holes of the inlet bracket. Use hexagonal nuts to screw tightly the motor's top housing with the inlet bracket. Lift the pump shaft with coupling to check the play. Check for free rotation. Re-fit the strainer and cable guard; ensure the cable guard properly covers the cable. At a distance of 20 feet from the Borewell’s bottom, install the pump. Fit the delivery pipe with a supporting clamp. Use the chain block to suspend the submersible pump. https://pumpsupplies.co.uk/submersible-pump-hire/
