PROCEDURE FOR LEVELLING & GROUTING OF BASE FRAME AT SITE
( FOR HDA / HDB / HG / CHT PUMPS ONLY )
PURPOSE :
High speed rotory equipment needs to be installed with maximum contact area between base frame
and the foundation. To achieve this conventionally, blue matching procedure is adopted between packer
plates and foundation. This calls for skilled millwright fitters to work on and consumes lot of time.
Despite this, the contact area achieved is nowhere near 100%.
Therefore, the following procedure is recommended which ensures :
1. Nearly 100% contact area between the foundation, the packer plates and the base frame.
2. Considerable saving in time and manpower.

PREPARATION :
The following preparation is followed, in case the base frame and the packer plates ( equal to the
number of foundation bolts ) are in scope of KSB. Otherwise, the user is requested to follow the
preparation as under :
l The base frame is provided with the pads, which are welded at the bottom, machined in one setting
and drilled to 15 mm. Dia. ( Ref. Fig. 1).
l Machined packer plates, having 0.02 mm. face parallality, and of the dimensions equal to the
welded pads at the bottom of the base frame, are required with tapping of M 10. These packer plates
are to be bolted with pads at the bottom of the base frame, using M10 bolts ( Ref. Fig. 2 & 3 ).
PROCEDURE :

01.Bolt the pump on the base frame.


02.Bolt the packer plates on the bottom pads of the base frame.
03.Place the unit on the foundation.
04.Suspend foundation bolts into the pockets provided on the foundation blocks.
05.Level the pump on the delivery flange or feet, within 0.04 mm. per meter, using jacking bolts pro
vided at the corners of the base frame.
06.Grout the foundation bolts and the packer plates by using quick setting non-shrink cement, ACC
make ‘Shrinkkomp’ or Forsoc make ‘Cobextra-GP2’ or equivalent ( Ref. Fig. 4 ).
07.Allow curing time of 24 to 72 hours depending upon the grout used.
08.Remove M 10 bolts, which are holding packer plates with the base frame.
09.Carry out final levelling by inserting shims (SS shims preferred) between packer plates and the base
frame.
10.Tighten the foundation bolts and recheck the levelling. Correct it, if necessary.
11. Grout the complete base frame, including the hollow portion, if any, using conventional grouting mix, i.e.,
portland cement, sand and aggregate in proportion 1 : 2 : 2 and gravel size not to exceed 20 mm.
12.Plaster the foundation and apply suitable oil resistant paint.
