CITY COUNCIL MEMO
SUBJECT: Bid #18-25, Lift Station Pump Rebuild Kit and Critical Spare Parts for
Hamestring Sewer Lift Station
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of Bid #18-25 with J.R. Stewart Pump & Equipment, Inc for the
purchase of pump rebuild parts for the 350 horsepower Cornell pumps at the Hamestring
Sewer Lift Station in the amount of $46,994.40, plus estimated applicable taxes of $4,581.96 for
a total of $51,576.36.
BACKGROUND:
The Hamestring Lift Station (Lift Station #7) on Sunshine Road delivers over 85% of the West
Side WWTF's average 7+ MGD of wastewater influent. The station, first brought online in June
2008, utilizes a series of seven 350 horsepower Cornell pumps -that have been in operation for
nearly 10 years. Currently Pump No.01 is out -of -service and needs several age -worn
components replaced. This is also a good opportunity to prepare for the eventuality of additional
pump malfunction from mechanical wear. The purchase of a full re -build kit, along with the
immediate availability of critical spare parts, will insure for the lift -station's full pumping capacity
during high flow events and minimize pump down-time resulting from any future mechanical
malfunction.
DISCUSSION:
The City received three bids on March 29th, 2018 (see attached Tabulation) for the purchase of
a pump rebuild kit for a 350 horsepower Cornell pump, one of seven pumps that operate the
Hamestring Lift Station. Centro, Inc. submitted the lowest bid, but the supplier did not meet
specifications. J.R. Stewart Pump & Equipment, Inc. submitted the lowest bid that meets
specifications. The City received a quote for a pump rebuild kit from J.R. Stewart Pump &
Equipment, Inc. in the amount of $28,074.70 (see attached Quote). Based upon submitted bid
pricing, staff also recommends purchasing a set of critical -spare parts for the station's 350
horsepower pumps, namely all pump rebuild kit components minus the Impeller, for
$18,919.70. Taxes are estimated in the amount of $4,581.96. The overall total would be
$51,576.36.

Startup Checklist
BEFORE TIIF STARTUP OFANY Pt 111, A CAREFUL C'HEC'K iNIUS T BE MADE TO ENSt RE THAT ALL IS IN ORDER
I. Reread all instructions and check for compliance on each point.
2. Make sure:
a. All fasteners at gasketed surfaces are properly tightened.
b. Belts and couplings (shaft) are properly adjusted, aligned, and guards are in place.
c. All thrust blocks and supports are adequate.
d. The pump and/or baseplate is bolted securely to a solid foundation. There must be no piping loads
on the pump casing. support suction or discharge piping, and piping must be clean and free of debris
and obstruction, gaskets in place and all joints secure.
e. That all electrical connections and electrical equipment are installed by a qualified and
licensed electrical contractor. r;
f. The pump rotates freely by hand. Then check the pump rotational direction with veryf
short on/off power pulses on the starter switch. 4`4
g. Pumps with mechanical seal must not run dry unless equipped with the run -dry feature.
CAUTION
Some pumps are equipped with threaded shafts (Food pumps, etc.). Improper rotation will cause
failure and costly repairs. If you are unsure if your pump has a threaded shaft, contact factory.
Pumps with mechanical seal must not run dry unless equipped with run -dry option.
Check the valves for proper position. if the system has a discharge gate valve, start with valve closed.
The speed of opening depends upon the size and length of your discharge pipe and capacity of the pump.
The valve should not be more than .25" open until the line is filled. The purpose of this procedure is to
reduce the possibility of a water hammer or shock if tilling is too rapid.
4. For Stuffing Box with Packing
When first starting the pump, there should be a leakage. If the packing is too loose, air will suck in
around the packing and the pump will not prime. Alter the pump is primed, back off on packing gland
nuts to free leakage. Several minutes later, gradually and evenly tighten packing gland nuts until
leakage is reduced to a trickle. Do not attempt to shut off all the leakage.
For Stuffing Box with Mechanical Seal
Read and comply with all seal instructions within manual. During shipment a seal may be jolted, which
could cause leakage. However, any leak should stop after a brief period of operation.
Instructions For Pumps with Balance Line and Wear Rings
Wear rings and balance lines are vital for a successful pump operation. They perform two important
functions. First, they reduce the pressure at the stuffing box. Second, they reduce axial thrust loads.
Wear rings should be replaced it -the clearance has increased to about .03" per side. Balance lines should
be kept free of obstructions and they should be replaced if they are pinched, bent, or corroded.

6. Motors
Check the power supply voltage, amperage, temperature and RPM with the motor nameplate. Review
item 2F with respect to rotation.
NOTE: Large motors must not be started and stopped more than five times er hou.
�,...-._._ �- — — CAUTION _—
Whether placed inside our outside, the motor should be mounted on a base four to six inches
higher than surrounding floor level.
Cornell Bearing Frames
In general, the considerations for a bearing frame are the same for that of electric motors.
NOTE: If a frame is oil lubed (denoted by 'K' on serial number plate and sight gauge on the side of the
frame), put appropriate oil in per lubrication instructions. Make sure support systems are in place and
working such as special lubricants, seal water, etc.
If the pump is used in winter, provisions must be made for protection of the pump and piping from
freezing. Add a heater if necessary. If the pump is not used in the winter, the volute should be drained to
prevent damage.
WARNING
Never operate electric motors or pump equipment without all protective covers, screens and
guards properly in place. Before disconnecting any electrical wiring, shut off the main
switch and lock it out.
8. Check to make sure the screens are in place. A screen or strainer should have a free opening at least
three times the area of the suction pipe.
9. Start the driver. If pump is primed or filled with liquid, the pumping will start immediately.
Cornell Centrifugal Pump Priming
A centrifugal pump is primed when all the internal passages of the pump are filled with the liquid to be
pumped. Do not operate any pump without being properly primed unless it has been specifically
designed for such operation.
When the pump is primed and the unit is started, the pumpage will start to flow immediately. If it does
not, recheck the system for complete prime and possible air leaks. Correct the deficiencies and restart.
CAUTION
If the pumpage does not start immediately, no amount of additional pumping will solve the
problem.
WARNING
Do not allow compressed air to pressurize the pump or vent -off compressed air through
the pump as this may damage pump or cause serious personal injury.

How to Disassemble and Reassemble a Cornell NH (10" & Larger)
Some parts mentioned in these instructions may not apply to your pump. Refer to your specific parts page
for part names and numbers.
Disassemble
1. Remove all capscrews holding volute (2) to backplate (38). Insert two of these capscrews into tapped
holes in backplate. Tighten capscrews to jack the volute free of the backplate, exposing the impeller
(3). Remove volute. Make sure volute does not fall onto the impeller.
Loosen the setscrews in the impeller washer (13). Remove impeller lockscrew (12). (Lockscrew can
be reused with Loctite if not damaged). Remove impeller washer.
Space wedges in pairs 180° apart between impeller and backplate. Be sure wedges are placed along
impeller vanes. Tap opposed wedges at the same time to force off the impeller. See page 3200-401
for alternate method. Use extreme care or damage to impeller, shaft or bearings will result. Remove
impeller and impeller key (28).
4, Remove mechanical seal (40). At this point it is probably easier to leave the stationary seat in the
backplate until the backplate is removed. If you elect to remove the seat now, use extreme care or it
will break (fragile).
5. Unbolt and remove backplate (38) from bracket (4). if the stationary seat has not been removed yet,
use extreme care when sliding backplate along shaft to avoid chipping of the mechanical seal seat on
the shaft. If the seal is being replaced, carefully remove the stationary seat from the backplate.
Remove sleeve (15) only if necessary. Install sleeve puller over outside diameter of sleeve and lock
puller to sleeve with set screws. Remove puller and sleeve with standard gear puller.
7. The suction wear ring (6) can be removed, if necessary, by drilling the ring longitudinally in three
places to relieve compression and collapsing the three sections together. Better control is obtained if
small pilot holes are first drilled and then enlarged to "cut' the ring.
Reassemble
1. Install sleeve (15). NOTE: Remove burrs on shaft around keyway before replacing sleeve.
2. Install backplate (38).
3. Install mechanical seal (40). See seal installation instructions.
Use shims (107A) provided by the Factory to obtain .030" + .008" clearance between impeller
backvanes and backplate. Shims will be sandwiched between end of shaft and bottom of impeller
bore. Where .015" shims are supplied the tolerance is + .008". Where shims of .015", .010" and .005"
are supplied the tolerance is + .003". Shimming is not necessary for 12NHTM.
Comell Pump Co.
SUPERSEDES 3200-414
June, 1997 April, 2012
The pumps below require a larger clearance between the impeller backvanes and the backplate, shim
these pumps accordingly.

14NHG28 -.06" 20NHF -.06"
18NHG34 - .06" 24NNG - .06"
Install impeller key (28) and impeller (3). Use long capscrew and several washers to press on impeller
(per page 3200-401.1). Do not use impeller lockscrew. The threads must be long enough to enter the
shaft approximately eight threads or turns by hand. This is necessary to protect the threads in the
shaft.
6. After installing impeller, remove long capscrew. Apply Loctite 262 to impeller lockscrew (12)
threads and shaft threads. Install impeller lockscrew and impeller washer( 13). Do not lubricate
impeller lockscrew or tapped hole or between the lockscrew and the impeller washer or between the
impeller washer and the impeller. Lockscrew should always be new. The head of the impeller
lockscrew must be in the slot on the impeller washer.
Lockscrew and washer will turn together. See Impeller Lockscrew Installation page for torque
requirements. After the lockscrew is torqued, tighten the setscrews in the impeller washer.
7. Install new gasket. For emergency use, old gaskets should be moist and flat.
8. Install volute (2), sliding it carefully over the register. Bolt volute to backplate (38).
9. Install suction cover (1) and gaskets.

Lubrication
Do not lubricate impeller lockscrew or tapped hole or between the lockscrew and the impeller washer or
between the impeller washer and the impeller. Make sure parts are clean and dry, however, it is not necessary
to remove the protective coating from the screw. Lubricated bolts can be overstressed with the torques
indicated.
DO NOT USE LOCKSCREW TO INSTALL THE IMPELLER
re "t 1YYrahl
Lockscrew failure can damage impeller and volute.
The impeller screw must be of the best material, properly forged and machined to rigid specifications not
available from local suppliers.
Buy only lockscrews available from Cornell to be sure of quality.
Impeller-Lockscrew Removal
1. Break loose impeller lockscrew with breaker bar. CAUTION: Care should be taken when removing
lockscrew to prevent damaging screw head.
2. If breaker bar will not loosen impeller lockscrew, apply heat to the lockscrew for 2-4 minutes. Do not
exceed 400° F. CAUTION: Care should be taken when applying heat so as not to receive serious burns.
3. Allow lockscrew to cool and remove with breaker bar.

Dismantling and Assembling Cornell Frames
F20TB Grease Lubed and F20TBK Oil Lubed
Oil lubricated frames are denoted by a "K" on the serial plate and an oil level sight gauge on the side of the frame.
Di m ntl (Refer to parts page for names and locations of parts)
1. Remove the deflectors from the shaft,
2. Remove drive end shaft key.
3. Remove capscrews from the bearing cover or drive end bracket.
NOTE: Oil lubricated frames have double lip seals at the drive and pump ends. Grease lubricated frames have
a single lip seal at the drive and pump ends. If the lip seals are to be saved, the shaft should be cleared of
burrs or sharp protrusions which would cut the seal. If the seals are removed or replaced, see parts page for
orientation of the lips. Paired seals have a grease passageway between them and are arranged so that the
grease will move through the inner and outer seal.
Slide the bearing cover or drive end bracket off the shaft. note the shim thickness for correct bearing preload for
subsequent replacement. Remove the capscrews from the pum bracket. Slide the pump bracket off the shaft.
4. Press the shaft out toward the drive end. The pump eno bearing remains on the shaft and can now be
removed. The drive end bearings are still on the shaft. Remove the bearing locknut and washer. Remove the
bearings with a bearing puller. Note the bearing arrangement during removal. The individual bearings are
identical, but two outer units are opposite the inner unit for proper thrust loading. (See Fig. 1).
5. If the bearings are to be saved, keep them absolutely clean. If contaminated, wash only in clean fluid.
CAUTION: Never hammer the shaft or parts attached to the shaft or you will ruin both the shaft and
the bearings.
Assembling
1. Press the drive end bearings and spacers onto the shaft with thrust directions as shown in Figure 1. Note that
each bearing race has a "thin" and "thick" side. Pressure should be applied to the inner race. Replace the lock
washer and locknut.
2. Press the pump end bearing into the frame. Install the pump bracket or temporary bolt -on stops to hold
bearing in position.
3. Press the shaft in the drive end of the frame until the drive end bearing contacts the frame shoulder. Take
care to keep the O.D. spacers clear of the frame bore as the bearings are being installed.
4. Remove the pump bracket or temporary stops.
5. Install the pump end lip seal(s) in the bracket as shown on the parts page. Slide the pump bracket (with
gasket for oil lubed frames) over the shaft, taking care not to damage or fold the lip seal(s). Install and
tighten the capscrews.
6. Install the lip seal(s) in the bearing cover or drive end bracket as shown on the parts page. Reinstall the shims
in the drive end of the frame (if present when disassembled). If new bearings, frame, bearing cover, or drive
end bracket are being installed, insert shims to maintain a maximum 0.001" to 0.005" clearance between
bearing frame and bearing cover before tightening capscrews. Slide the bearing cover (with gasket for oil
lubed frames) or drive and bracket over the shaft. Install and tighten the capscrews.

S'T'ATIC
SEAT
SPRING
STATIONARY ROTATING SEAL DISC DRIVING BAND
SEAL FACE FACE
The location of the mechanical seal in your pump is shown in the cross-section drawing of the pump. The
stationary seat is held in the backplate. All other parts of the seal rotate with the shaft and impeller.
STARTING
The seal chamber must be full of liquid before operating the pump. If the shaft is vertical open the vent until
liquid comes out to be sure chamber is full (not necessary for pumps with Cycloseal as seal chamber is self -
venting). CAUTION: DO NOT RUN PUMP DRY unless pump is equipped with Run -Dry option.
MAINTENANCE
No maintenance is required. However, the pump should be examined at regular intervals for leakage resulting
from wear of the sealing faces. Occasionally new installations will leak for a short time. These must be
inspected daily. If the leakage does not reduce to almost zero. the assembly should be examined for proper seal
installation.

If seal is to be removed, remove the impeller according to the instructions for dismantling the pump. The
rotating portion of the seal may now be seen. Slide off the seal spring. Lubricate the shaft and remove the
reminder of the rotating portion being careful to avoid damaging the primary seal. The rubber bellows will be
firmly attached to the shaft and considerable pressure will be required to remove it.
REMOVING SEAT
If the seal is being replaced, remove gland and press out the stationary seat. For pumps with double seals
remove the seat from the stuffing box also.
INSTALLING THE MECHANICAL SEAL
Clean all parts of the pump before starting reassembly. Special attention Auld be given to the backplate and
the impeller hub.
- Clean and lubricate the shaft.
- Install the stationary seat in the backplate.
- Oil the outer surface of the seat and the "0" ring with a light oil (not grease). Place a cardboard disc on the
sealing face to avoid damage. Press the seat into the Island or stuffing box using firm steady pressure. Make
sure the seat is all the wav in. Slide the gland with the gasket over the shaft.
- Wipe the lapped sealing faces of the seat and the prirnary seal perfectly clean. Use extreme care to avoid
marking the sealing face or the primary seal. Slide the rotating portion of the seal, including spring on the
shaft.
CAOTION : Once the rotating portion has been placed on the shaft, the rest of the installation must be made at
once. Delay may result in the rubber bel lodes seizing on the shaft in the wrong posi€ion.
Install the impeller. For pumps with Cycloscal, be sure that the spring slides over the i€npeller hub and pushes
against the backshroud of the impeller (on some Cycloseal models, a spring retainer or spacer is used to hold the
spring. Refer to pump sectional drawing)

BALL BEARING LUBRICATION
Bearings in motors are greased at the factory before shipment.
3200-20.5
yew, 2008
Lubrication requirements vary with speed, power, load, ambient temperatures, exposure to contamination and
moisture, seasonal or continuous operation and other factors. The brief recommendations which follow are
general in nature and must be coupled with good judgement and consideration of the application conditions.
For regreasing periods refer to table below. When adding grease be sure the grease and fittings are absolutely
clean.
Grease used for these bearings should be equivalent to one of the following manufacturer's products:
Exxon Polyrex EM
Mobil Mobilith SIIC 220
Chevron SRI 42
Texaco Polystar RB
CAUTION: These are Polyurea based greases and should never be mixed with lithium base greases.
Mixing of the two greases can cause the base thickener to become ineffective allowing the
grease to become pure oil and flowing out of the bearings causing bearing failure.
NOTE: If lubrication instructions are shown on motor, they will supersede these general
instructions.
To lubricate electric motor bearings, use a hand -operated grease gun only. Pump grease into fitting until new
grease appears at pressure relief plug. For minimum possibility of over -greasing, and for best results, lubricate
when the motor is not running.
Bearings will become unusually hot until excess grease escapes from the relief plug.
End of season: Pump in grease until old grease is expelled from relief plug. Store.
Beginning of season: Start up motor. Let motor run until surplus grease is expelled.
