Typical Specifications for G&L Pump Series A-C 8100

Horizontal Split Case Pumps
Specifications
2.01 DOUBLE SUCTION, HORIZONTAL SPLIT CASE
PUMPS (BASE MOUNTED)
A. MANUFACTURER:

Contractor shall furnish and install new double suction

horizontal split case pumps for chilled water and hot
water heating systems as indicated on the drawings.
Pumps shall be model G&L Pump Series A-C 8100
under base bid. Equivalent units may be submitted as
deduct alternates. Pumps shall meet types, sizes,
capacities, and characteristics as scheduled on the
Equipment Schedule drawings.

B. DOUBLE SUCTION, HORIZONTAL SPLIT CASE

PUMP (BASE MOUNTED) :
1. The pumps shall be long coupled, base mounted,
single stage, double suction, horizontally split
case design, in cast iron bronze fitted construction
specifically designed and guaranteed for quiet
operation. Suitable standard operations at 225F
(107C) and 175 psig (12 BAR) working pressure
or optional operations at up to 250F (121C) and
280 psig (19 BAR) or 400 psig (27 BAR) working
pressures. Working pressures shall not be de-rated
at temperatures up to 250F (121C). The pump
internals shall be capable of being serviced without
disturbing piping connections or electrical motor
connections.
2. A bearing housing shall supply support for a pair of
heavy-duty regreaseable ball bearings. An inboard
single row bearing will absorb thermal expansive
forces while an outboard double row bearing will be
clamped in place to absorb both radial and thrust
loads and keep the rotating element in proper
axial alignment. Bearings shall be replaceable
without disturbing the system piping and shall be
regreaseable without removal of the bearings from
the bearing housing.
3. The impeller shaft shall be a solid 416 stainless steel
shaft.

PAGE 10

4. Pump shall be equipped with a pair of externally

flushed mechanical seal assemblies in direct contact
with the pump shaft. Seal assemblies shall be a Type
21 having a stainless steel housing, Buna bellows
and seat gasket, stainless steel spring, and be of a
carbon-ceramic design with the carbon face rotating
against a stationary ceramic face.
5. Impeller shall be of the enclosed double suction type
made of bronze, both hydraulically and dynamically
balanced to ANSI/HI 1.1-1.5-1994, section
1.4.6.1.3.1, figure 1.106, balance grade G6.3 keyed
to the shaft and fixed in the axial position.
6. A center drop-out type coupling, capable of
absorbing torsional vibration, shall be employed
between the pump and motor. On variable
speed applications the coupler sleeve should be
constructed of an EPDM material to maximize
performance life.
7. The coupling shall be shielded by a dual rated ANSI
B15.1, Section 8 and OSHA 1910.219 compliant
coupling guard and contain viewing windows for
inspection of the coupling.
8. Pump volute shall be of a cast iron (rated for 175 psig
[12 BAR] Max WP) or ductile iron (rated for 280 psig
[19 BAR] or 400 psig [27 BAR] Max WP) axially-split
design with flanges (175 psig [12 BAR] drilled for
125 PSI ANSI companion flanges or optional 280
psig [19 BAR] and 400 psig [27 BAR] working
pressures are drilled 250 PSI flange drilled) and
mounting feet integral cast into the bottom half
of the casing. 280 psig (19 BAR) and 400 psig (27
BAR) 6x8x10As are cast iron. Suction and discharge
flanges shall be on a common centerline in both the
horizontal and vertical planes, and the volute shall
include Bronze Casing Wear Rings, priming port,
gauge ports at nozzles, and vent and drain ports. The
upper half casing shall be capable of being removed
without disturbing piping connections or electrical
motor connections.

G&L Pumps
Commercial Water

9. Pump seal flushing lines shall be mounted on the

upper half pump casing. Sealing from an external
source shall be possible for lubrication and/or
cooling.
10. Pump and motors shall be factory aligned, and shall
be realigned after installation by the manufacturers
representative. Motors shall be of electrical
characteristics as scheduled, denoted and/or as
indicated on the electrical plans and specifications.
Pump characteristics shall be such that the head of
the pump under varying conditions shall not exceed
the rated horsepower of the drive motor.

17. Each pump shall be factory hydrostatically tested

per Hydraulic Institute standards and name-plated
before shipment. It shall then be thoroughly cleaned
and painted with at least one coat of high-grade
paint prior to shipment.
18. Pumps shall be Series A-C 8100 as manufactured by
G&L Pumps or approved equal.

11. Base plate shall be of structural steel or fabricated

steel channel with fully enclosed sides and ends,
and securely welded cross members. Grouting area
shall be fully open. The combined pump and motor
base plate shall be sufficiently stiff as to limit the
susceptibility of vibration. The minimum base plate
stiffness shall conform to ANSI/HI 1.3.4-1997 for
Horizontal Baseplate Design standards.
12. Base shall be capable of being field grouted.
13. The pump(s) selected shall conform to ANSI/HI
9.6.3.1 standards for Preferred Operating Region
(POR) unless otherwise approved by the engineer.
The pump NPSH shall conform to the ANSI/HI 9.6.11997 standards for Centrifugal and Vertical Pumps
for NPSH Margin.
14. Pump rotation shall be right hand or left hand as
viewed from the pump end.
15. Pump manufacturer shall be ISO-9001 certified.
16. The seismic capability of the pump shall allow it
to withstand a horizontal load of 0.5g, excluding
piping and/or fasteners used to anchor the pump
to mounting pads or to the floor, without adversely
affecting pump operation.
