Vertical Turbine Pumps – Fear of the Unknown Part 4

“The pump has been installed and now it’s time to mount the motor and make the equipment ready for startup.”
Vertical pump motors will differ based on equipment design and options ordered. The motor will be supplied as a vertical solid shaft or vertical hollow shaft motor. Larger industrial pumps or pumps with mechanical seals are normally supplied with a solid shaft motor. Hollow shaft motors are supplied when lower horsepower is required and packing is most likely used. The motor supplied will dictate the type of drive coupling arrangement and how the pump’s impeller lift setting is adjusted.
