foundation bolts are tightened lnctall the pumps so that connection may be
made to the suction and discharge headers without any springing or otherwise
forcing either the pump or the header. Carefully fit and coat all bolt _
threads with lubricant to facilitate future removal . After the pump has

data and data which will apply to field conditions. The field data entered
shall be reproducible in the field acceptance test. Certified test curves
which do not include the computed field curves will be unacceptable.
FIELD TEST. Prior to acceptance of each installed pump, demonstrate
proper operation of the pump at the guarantee point, at which time data
shall be taken on the total head, flow, and horsepower requirements of the
pump. Furnish all instruments and labor as required for this procedure.
The Owner will furnish electric power for the test.
BALANCE OF VIBRATION. The rotating parts of each pump and its driving
motor shall be statically and dynamically balanced before final assembly.

where required by NEC; othe rise, a single lockout and insulated, metallic
bushings are acceptable. Provide suitable expansion fittings for raceways
