Installation

Changing the Orientation of the Fluid Inlet and Outlet Ports

The pump is shipped with the fluid inlet (R) and outlet

(S)ports facing the same direction. See Fig. 4. To change the orientation of the inlet and/or outlet port:

1.Remove the screws and washers (106, 112, 113 and 114) holding the inlet (102) and/or outlet (103) manifold to the covers (101).

2.Reverse the manifold and reattach. Install the screws and washers and torque to 150–160 in–lb (17–18 NSm). See Torque Sequence, page 32.

Fluid Pressure Relief Valve

CAUTION

Some systems may require installation of a pres- sure relief valve at the pump outlet to prevent overpressurization and rupture of the pump or hose. See Fig. 5.

Thermal expansion of fluid in the outlet line can cause overpressurization. This can occur when using long fluid lines exposed to sunlight or ambi- ent heat, or when pumping from a cool to a warm area (for example, from an underground tank).

Overpressurization can also occur if the Husky pump is being used to feed fluid to a piston pump, and the intake valve of the piston pump does not close, causing fluid to back up in the outlet line.
