LA Series is supplied with a two bolt flange the LE Series with a three bolt flange Optional mounting feet are available for both Series An internal relief valve is an option with the LE Series Both Series are bi rotational unless outfitted with a relief valve and designed for direct drive at standard motor speeds with modifications available for indirect drive The Pumping Principle Tuthill s LA and LE Series employ the internal gear pumping principle There are only two moving parts Pumping action is based on a rotor idler gear and crescent shaped partition cast integral with the cover Power applied to the rotor is transmitted to the idler gear with which it meshes The space between the outside diameter of the idler and the inside diameter of the rotor is sealed by the crescent As the pump starts the teeth come out of mesh increasing the volume This creates a partial vacuum drawing the liquid into the pump through the suction port The liquid fills the spaces between the teeth of the idler and the rotor and is carried past the crescent partition through the pressure side of the pump When the teeth mesh on the pressure side the liquid is forced from the spaces and out through the discharge port ASL 83930 ASL Technologies LLC ASL 83940 10525 W US Hwy 30 Bldg 3D Wanatah IN 46390 ASL 83980 Phone 219 733 2777 or Toll Free 888 333 2990 Pann amp Motor Facsimile 219 733 2779 or e mail custsve aslfilter com w
8. These can be detected by submerging the pressure line from the discharge side of the pump into a pail of liquid where the air will be seen in the form of bubbles e Direction of shaft rotation is incorrect e Pump shaft is not rotating The coupling is defective or the tongue and groove are not engaged e The relief valve setting is too low Liquid is discharging through the by pass port On ASL Filtration Systems the by pass should be set so the pump enters full bypass at 40 psi maximum Capacity is too low e There are air leaks in the suction line e Suction losses are too high The suction lift is too great or the suction line too small or too long This can be detected by installing a vacuum gauge directly at the pump suction The maximum vacuum at the pump suction should never exceed 15 of mercury Vaporization caused by higher vacuums will generally result in capacity drop off Suction conditions must be redesigned Pump speed is too slow The strainer is too small or obstructed The suction port or pipe is not immersed deeply enough in the liquid Piping is improperly installed permitting an air pocket to form in the pump e Increased clearances or wear in the pump will sometimes cause the pump to deliver an insufficient supply of fluid This can generally be corrected by reducing the thickness of the cover gaskets A folded gasket or a slight amount of dirt can exaggerate the problem and cause leakage 16 ASL 8393
