DRIVE SHAFTS
Radial and axial loads on the shafts must be avoided since they reduce the life of the unit.
In order to avoid misalignment during the assembly with the primary engine, a connection with “Oldham” coupling (or
coupling having convex toothed hub) is recommended.

HYDRAULIC PIPE LINE E0.100.0821.02.00IM03
To ensure favorable suction conditions it is important to keep pressure drop in suction pipe line to a minimum value
(see TECHNICAL DATA).
To calculate hydraulic pipe line size, the designer can use; as an approximate guide, the following fluid speed figures:
From 1 to 2 m/sec on suction pipe line From 3.28 to 6.36 ft/sec on suction pipe line
From 6 to 10 m/sec on pressure pipe line From 19.7 to 32.8 ft/sec on pressure pipe line
The lowest fluid speed values in pipe lines is recommended when the operating temperature range is high and/or for
continuos duty.
The highest value is recommended when the temperature difference is low and/or for intermittent duty.
When tandem pumps are supplied by 2 different reservoirs with 2 different fluids it is necessary to specify “AS”
version.
