5.11 Mechanical Seal Lubrication
See Graphic: wc_gr003179
Check the oil in the seal housing daily before starting the pump. Check
its level and check it for signs of water contamination. If water
contamination is found, change the oil immediately. Otherwise,
change the oil every 100 hours of pump operation.
Note:
It is normal for some water to pass through the mechanical seal;
however, if water contamination is heavy and oil feels watered down,
inspect the mechanical seal for signs of wear or damage.
To check the oil level:
5.11.1 Remove the plastic fill plug
(a)
from the top of the bearing housing. The
oil level should touch the base of the plug opening. Add oil as required.
To change the oil:
5.11.2 Remove the drain plug
(c)
from the bottom of the bearing housing.
5.11.3 Replace the drain plug and add oil (approximately 800 ml (27 oz.)
15W40) through the port
(a)
on top of the bearing housing until the oil
level is at the base of the fill plug opening.
