Vertical pump leveling and alignment reference surface
Thread Content
There is limited contact with vertical equipment; so how can the reference surface for leveling and aligning newly installed equipment be determined? Integral pump, split pump – please give me some advice!
To be honest, I don’t think it’s necessary to level it perfectly; just using a level will suffice. However, when the base is connected to the motor or to other components, flanges with male and female surfaces must be used to ensure their coaxiality. All motors have convex surfaces; the smaller the gap between the concave flange and the motor, the better. Of course, the flatness of the concave flange must be good
