 2.9.1 Filling the unit

Normally the system of suction and discharge lines and consequently the pump’s interior that is in contact
with the fluid is permanently filled with the pumped medium during pump operation to prevent any potentially
explosive atmosphere and the risk of dry running.

If the operator cannot meet this requirement, we recommend providing appropriate monitoring facilities.
Moreover, ensure that auxiliary, heating and cooling systems are filled properly.

2.9.2 Special operating conditions

In the standard model of the pump, the inner (fluid-filled) space of the magnetic coupling is cooled by a
partial flow that branches off from the main fluid flow. If particular properties of the fluid (sticking, clogging)
lead to a disruption of the cooling flow, the temperature may rise inadmissibly. If such risk exists, make
sure to take suitable monitoring measures (see 4.3.4).

In case of overloading, overheating or non-observance of design data or improper selection of the

magnetic coupling, the internal and external magnet may become desynchronized. Furthermore, thermal
energy generated in the containment shell or on the external magnet may also cause an inadmissible rise
in temperature. If such risk exists, make sure to take suitable monitoring measures (see 4.3.4).

If an environmental hazard arises as a result of damage to the containment shell (rare incident) causing
liquid to leak, make sure to provide leakage detection facilities (see 4.3.4). If necessary, check if there is
any potential interaction between the liquid and the pumped medium.

2.9.3 Markings

Markings and signs on the pump refer only to a specific pump section, i.e., shaft coupling and motor should
be considered separately. A Manufacturer’s Declaration with the appropriate marking is required for the
shaft coupling. The drive is subject to a separate marking on the pump section. Example of marking on
the pump section: II 2 GT3 -T4.

The marking shows the range of theoretically available temperature classes. Admissible temperatures
depending on the relevant pump design are specified in 2.9.6.

4 Description of the product and accessories

4.1 General description

4.1.1 General description of the pump

V-Series internal gear pumps are volumetric rotary displacement pumps with internal gears designed to
deliver fluids of any viscosity. The flow of the fluid to be delivered is produced by two gears: The directly
driven rotor designed as a gear and the pinion which, also designed as a gear, engages the rotor in an
off-centre configuration.

Rotor and pinion are isolated from one another by a stationary steady (crescent-shaped partition). For the
pumped fluid to be drawn in (inlet), the teeth of the rotor and the pinion in engagement will come out of
mesh, whereas the teeth moving into mesh will result in discharge of the fluid (outlet).

The pump shaft is supported in the bearing housing in a plain bearing; similarly, the pin of the pinion
(single-ended shaft) is also supported in a plain bearing. The plain bearings are lubricated by the pumped
fluid. The pumps are self-priming. Optionally, the pumps are equipped with a safety relief valve (a pressure
relief valve designed as a bypass). When the valve operates, as a rule fluid will flow from the discharge side
to the suction side of the pump, which - in an extreme case - can entail recirculation (internal circulation)
with overheating.

It is the key property of pumps with magnetic couplings (VTRM Series) that they are driven through a
magnetic coupling. The external magnet core is connected to the motor shaft; it serves to transmit the
torque to the internal magnet core that is mounted to the pump shaft. The magnetic field generated by the
motor-driven magnet hub with the externally placed set of (permanent) magnets causes the internal
magnet core and, thus, the rotor to rotate.

Arranged between the two magnet cores is a containment shell which hermetically seals the pumped fluid
from the atmosphere without any shaft seal fitted. Suitably designed coolant and lubricant grooves are
provided to continuously dissipate heat to which the magnetic coupling is exposed because of eddy current
losses. The coolant flow is returned to the pump's suction side through the gap between the containment
shell and the internal rotor, via the internal rotor's rear side and a centre port in the pump shaft.

Pumps with a drive-end magnetic coupling and a pressure relief valve at the opposite end do not have any
dynamic shaft seals fitted. These pumps are hermetically sealed.

The drive shaft which mounts the magnet hub at its drive end is supported in the bearing flange in two ball
bearings with a shaft seal made of Perbunan fitted to cover the bearings towards the outside. Where it is
desirable to monitor the temperature on the magnetic coupling the pumps can be equipped with a PT 100
temperature sensor that is inserted into the flange of the containment shell from above. Moreover,
provision for PT 100 temperature monitoring is made directly on the pump casingr.

The maximum operating pressure for all pump types is in the range from 8 to 16 bar, depending on pump
type, design and operating conditions.

The ambient temperature range TA is: - 40°C… to TA + 60°C.

The maximum allowable operating temperature range (at the same time the
pumped-fluid temperature range) is: - 40°C to + 220°C.

Page 14 
4.1.2 Operating principle

Arranged in a pump casing a gear pump has two gears that mesh to provide its pumping action through
rotation in opposite senses. The gears are mounted on two shafts which, in turn, are supported in the pump
casing and the pump cover. One of the two gears is driven through a shaft, with the former also driving
the second gear in mesh. As the space between any two teeth opens a pressure below atmospheric is
generated, drawing the fluid into the pump and advancing it between the tooth spaces and the casing wall.
In the area where the teeth re-mesh the fluid is forced from the tooth gaps and into the outlet. Thus, the fluid
can also be delivered against a higher pressure.

The figure above shows the liquid as it advances through the pump; the point where the teeth come out of
mesh governs the phase of the liquid entering between the rotors and is, therefore, physically located
close to the suction zone. The liquid is carried between the teeth and the steady and the discharge opening
developing as the teeth come into mesh eject the liquid.
The permanent-magnet coupling guarantees operation that requires no maintenance, it is without leakage,
and prevents air entrainment, e.g., when product is drawn in from a vacuum.

As the actual maximum surface temperature varies with the temperature of the pumped fluid rather than
the ignition sources, no marking is made to show a temperature class or temperature. The marking
includes the symbol "X" and reference to surface temperatures occurring is made in Section 2.9.6 of this
Operating Manual.

4.3 Main components

4.3.1 Magnetic coupling

The external rotor is driven by an electric motor through antifriction

bearings. It is due to the magnetic forces of the permanent magnets
that the internal rotor is driven in synchronism with the motor
speed. The rotating magnetic field induces in the containment shell
eddy currents attributable to the conductivity of the latter. Hence,
there is a heat build-up in the containment shell. In the hydraulic
section, part of the pumped fluid is branched off through ports in the
rear casing cover, to pass through the inside of the containment
shell and return through a shaft bore, thereby dissipating heat. The
hydrodynamic plain journal bearings are lubricated by the pumped
fluid present in the containment shell.

Page 16 
4.3.1.1 Internal rotor

The internal rotor is mounted on the pump drive shaft. The magnets are pasted on the rotor outside and
hermetically sealed in to protect them from chemical attack.

4.3.1.2 External rotor

The external rotor with the coupling hub is mounted on the motor shaft. The magnets sit on its inside. The
magnets actually fitted are provided as a function of the torque to be transmitted by the coupling.

4.3.1.3 Magnets

The magnets consist of high-grade samarium cobalt (SmCo). Outstanding features are high magnetic
energy density and low unit volume as well as a high field service temperature limit. Given the magnets'
limited chemical resistance the internal rotor is encapsulated (i.e., hermetically sealed).

4.3.2 Bearings

The drive-end shaft is supported in deep groove ball bearings which, featuring C3 bearing clearance and
high-temperature grease packing, have sealing washers on either side.
The pump-end shaft is supported in hydrodynamic carbide plain bearings which are lubricated by the
pumped fluid.

Page 21
7 Removing the pump

If the pump is under warranty you will need to contact Varisco prior to removing the pump. Otherwise,
warranty claims will be null and void.

Prior to opening the pump, make sure that:

it is completely depressurised;

all its content was drained and the pump flushed;

it was vented and allowed to cool down.

8 Risk analysis according to EN 13463-1

Predictable malfunction denotes equipment trouble which, usually occurring in the field, entails a situation
such that the pumps do not function any longer as intended or fail to meet the design parameters.

When operating the pumps the following aspects need to be given particular consideration:

Faulty design: Failure of a pump component (e.g., bearing damage);

Trouble caused by external effects: Obstruction attributable to foreign matter in the pumped medium,
or discharge-side clogging;

Overtemperature resulting from recirculation when the pressure relief valve has operated;

Operator's failure to conduct checks as necessary.

Referring to the appraisal of malfunctions, it can be anticipated that predictable malfunction because of
faulty design or installation faults is ruled out by implementing the 'Internal Production Control' quality
assurance system established at the manufacturer's in conformity with Annex VIII of the Directive 94/9/EC.
This quality system, while guaranteeing design in line with good engineering practice, also serves to
ensure that agreements with the customers as well as the design solutions chosen are in conformity with
Directive 94/9/EC and the underlying standards.

Consistent compliance with the operating manual and maintenance instructions implies that loss of control of
the pumps by the operators is ruled out.

An assessment of concrete design solutions with respect to ignition hazards (acc. to EN 13463-1) is
made in the table below (see next page).

Æthere are no exposed components of non-conductive
plastics in pumps;
Æall conductive components of the pump are in metal-to-
metal contact to one another and the pump is included in
the equipotential bonding system of the equipment;
Æit needs to be remembered that a flexible coupling with non-
conductive elastoms functions as insulation. 
Potential differentials between the individual assemblies
(pump and motor) are prevented in that all the assemblies
of the pump are bonded through metal-to-metal screwed joints
and, in the end, the pump is included in the equipotential
bonding system of the equipment (earthed). The oil film
between the rotating and the stationary components is not
considered a mutual insulation. However, it should be
remembered that a flexible coupling with non-conductive
elastomers between the motor and the drive shaft functions as
insulation.
Ignition sources other than those described above are not likely to occur.
Therefore, no further evaluation of ignition hazards is required.

9. Disassembly

9.1 General

Improper or incorrect assembly and disassembly may cause pump malfunctions and result in high
repair costs and long downtimes. If you have questions or require further information, please do not
hesitate to contact VARISCO S.p.A.

! Failure to observe these instructions and/or the warning notes may result in risks to the operator
and/or serious damage to the pump or pump unit. VARISCO S.p.A.shall not be held liable for any
accidents or damage caused as a result of non-observance of this manual.

The specific safety requirements in relation to strong magnetic fields must be strictly observed.

Persons who have a pacemaker should not be allowed to work on a pump with magnetic
coupling! The magnetic field is sufficiently strong to affect a pacemaker’s proper operation. For
this reason, a safe distance of at least three (3) metres should be kept.

Always keep equipment with magnetic data carriers (memory) such as cheque cards, computer
disks, watches, etc. at a distance from the magnetic coupling (at least 1 m) because they might
be damaged and/or data loss might occur.

Prior to opening the pump, make sure that

- it is completely depressurized

- all its content was drained and the pump flushed

- it was vented and allowed to cool down.
