The diesel engine is an internal comb ustion power unit, in

which the heat of fuel is converted into work in the cylinder
of the engine.
The unidirectional flow of air toward the exhaust valves produces a scavenging effect, leaving the cylinders full of clean
air when the piston again co vers the inlet ports.
In the diesel engine, air alone is compressed in the cylinder;

then, after the air has been compressed, a charge of fuel is
sprayed into the c ylinder and ignition is accomplished by
the heat of compression.
As the piston continues on the upw ard stroke, the exhaust

valves close and the charge of fresh air is subjected to compression (Fig. 1 & 2 - Compression).
The Two-Cycle Principle

In the tw o-cycle engine, intake and e xhaust functions tak e
place during part of the compression and po wer strokes respectively (Fig. 1) or (Fig. 2). In contrast,
a four -cycle
engine requires four piston strokes to complete an operating
cycle; thus, during one half of its operation, the four-cycle
engine functions merely as an air pump.
A blo wer is pro vided to force air into the c ylinders for
expelling the exhaust gases and to supply the cylinders with
fresh air for combustion. The cylinder wall contains a row of
ports which are above the piston when it is at the bottom of
its stroke. These ports admit the air from the blower into the
cylinder as soon as the rim of the piston unco vers the ports
(Fig. 1 & 2 - Sca venging).
Shortly before the piston reaches its highest position,

the
required amount of fuel is sprayed into the comb
ustion
chamber by the unit fuel injector (Fig. 1 & 2 - Po wer). The
intense heat generated during the high compression of the
air ignites the f ine fuel spray immediately. The combustion
continues until the fuel injected has been b urned.
The resulting pressure forces the piston do wnward on its
power stroke. The exhaust valves are again opened when the
piston is about half way down, allowing the burned gases to
escape into the e xhaust manifold (Fig. 1 & 2 - Exhaust).
Shortly thereafter , the do wnward mo ving piston unco vers
the inlet ports and the c ylinder is again swept with clean
scavenging air. This entire combustion cycle is completed in
each c ylinder for each re volution of the crankshaft, or, in
other words, in two strokes; hence, it is a "two-stroke cycle".

DESCRIPTION
Introduction
NFPA Pamphlet 20 sta tes "The compression ignition diesel
engine has pro ved to be the most de pendable of the inter nal
combustion engines for dri ving fire pumps." The diesel en gine will operate under emer gency power conditions w here
loss of utility or stand-b y electric po wer renders electric
motor driven pumps useless. The diesel driven fire pump system is preferred by most insurance companies.
This manual co vers Detroit Diesel engines. These engines
have been manuf actured with specif ic options to function
integrally with an automa tic engine controller for stand-by
fire protection service and to meet NFP A-20 requirements.
These systems ar e designed to function under emergenc y
conditions and to assist in holding fire damage to a minimum.
Complete understanding of the operation and maintenance of
this fire protection system is essential to ac hieve this objec tive.
A separate manual co vers the operation and maintenance of
the Automatic Engine Controller (AEC).
The two-cycle engines co vered in this man ual are produced
with v arious c ylinder arrangements. The same bore and
stroke and many of the major working parts such as injectors,
pistons, connecting rods, cylinder liners and other par ts are
interchangeable within eac h engine series. The engines are
either naturally aspirated (NA) or turbocharged (T) and some
units are turbocharged and aftercooled (TA).
The engines ha ve either an in-line or a vee type c
ylinder
arrangements. The engine may ha ve clockwise (CW) or
counter-clockwise (CCW) r otation. Rotational reference is
made from a front vie w of the engine to deter mine the r otation of the output shaft. All other engine references, (right or
left side) are made from a rear view of the engine, looking at
the flywheel.
All DDFP engines are Underwriters Laboratories (UL) listed,
Underwriters Laboratories of Canada (ULC) listed and/or
Factory Mutual (FM) approved and meet the requirements of
the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standard 20.
Each engine is equipped with an oil cooler, lubricating oil filter, fuel f ilters, air cleaner , heat e xchanger, starting motor ,
alternator, instrument panel and engine jacket water heater.
Full lubrication oil pr essure is supplied to all main, connecting rod and camshaft bear ings, and to other mo ving parts
within the eng ine. A gear type pump dr aws oil fr om the oil
pan through an intak e screen, through the oil f ilter and then
to the oil cooler. From the oil cooler the oil enter s a longitudinal oil g allery in the c ylinder b lock where the suppl y
divides and is channeled to the turbocharger (if included), to
the cam and balance shaft end bear ings and c ylinder head ,
with the r emainder going to the main bear ings and connect ing rod bearings via the drilled crankshaft. The oil then drains
back into the oil pan.
Coolant is circulated through the engine by a centrifugal-type
water pump. Heat is removed from the coolant as it circulates
in a closed system through the heat exchanger. Control of the
engine temper ature is accomplished b y a thermostat which
regulates the f low of the coolant within the cooling system.
Raw water from the f ire pump passes thr ough a tube b undle
in the heat e xchanger to remo ve the heat from the engine
coolant.
Fuel is dra wn from the suppl y tank through a str ainer by a
gear-type fuel pump. It is then forced through a filter and into
the fuel inlet gallery in the cylinder head and to the injectors.
Excess fuel is r eturned to the suppl y tank through the fuel
outlet g allery and connecting lines. Since the fuel is con stantly circulating through the injector s, it serves to cool the
injectors and purges the system of air.
Air for sca venging and comb ustion is supplied b y a blo wer
which pumps air into the engine cylinders via the air box and
cylinder liner por ts. All air enter ing the blo wer f irst passes
through an air c leaner. Turbocharges, when included, are
located between the air cleaner and the blower. Some engines
also include an after cooler which cools the air prior to entering the cylinders.
Engine starting is usually provided by an electric starting system. The electric starting motor is energized by a storage battery. A battery-char ging alter nator, with a b uilt-in v oltage
regulator, serves to keep the battery charged while the unit is
running. At rest, a battery charger in the AEC keeps batteries
charged.
Engine speed is r egulated by a mechanical type eng ine governor with a tamper proof speed control device.
Model Numbering & Identification

Two model numbers are sho wn on this pr oduct. First is the
Clarke FM/UL/ULC a pproved model n umber sho wing the

ENGINE START UP AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Preparing New Engine For Start-Up
Before starting a new or overhauled engine for the first time,
carefully read and follow the check list below. Attempting to
run the engine before studying these instructions may result
in serious damage to the engine.
1. Make all electrical (DC) connections between engine
(DC) junction box and engine controller.
2. Make all raw water connections to heat exchanger tank.
Discharge line should be one size larger than supply line and
rise a minimum of 3 inches abo ve heat e xchange outlet to
assure complete co verage of the heat e xchange core. Discharge water is to be piped to an open w aste cone.
NOTE: Do not allo w ra w w ater plumbing to stress on
engine heat exchanger.
3. Install all of the drain cocks or plugs in the cooling system (drain cocks are removed for shipping engines dry).
4. Fill engine cooling system with PRE-MIXED 50 per cent water and 50 percent permanent type antifreeze solution. Fill to top heat e xchanger tank.
NOTE: Refer to Section 3.4 for Cooling System
Fill Procedure.
5. Connect fuel supply line and fuel return line to supply
tank. Bleed fuel system of all air.
NOTE: Do not use galvanized material for any component part of a diesel fuel system. The fuel will
chemically react with the zinc coating.
6. Fill fuel tank with No. 2 diesel fuel.
NOTE: No. 2 diesel fuel is the only recommended fuel,
engine po wer could be af fected by using an y
other type.
7. Fill engine crankcase with SAE 40 weight oil per oil
recommendations of Section 3. Oil filler locations v ary by
engine model. Most will be found on the engine valve cover.
8. Pre-lubricate engine to a minimum 25 psi (172 KPA) to
insure an immediate flow of oil to all bearings at the initial
engine start-up. Contact the authorized DDC
Distributor/Dealer if you require assistance with this item.
9. Unbox and inspect air cleaner element for damage or deterioration. Install air cleaner element on engine.
10. Install batteries, battery cables and service batteries as
required by manufacturer. See battery recommendation under
Section 3.
11. Install exhaust system. A vertical exhaust outlet is furnished for customer/contractor installation. A fle xible e xhaust connector must be installed at outlet.
NOTE: Do not exceed exhaust back pressure limits. See
Section 5 for details for each engine model.
NOTE: Do not allo w exhaust system plumbing to stress
on engine.
If any problems or questions develop in performing the above
procedures, advise the authorized DDC Distributor/Dealer of
details when making arrangements for the installation inspection.
NOTE: Only one initial start-up inspection is provided at
no charge for an installation re view. Be sure to
cover items 1-11 thoroughly before calling the
authorized DDC Distributor/Dealer.
Normal Running
Fire pump engines are run periodically to assure proper operation. Units may be run automatically as programmed within
the AEC or the y may be run manually for systems e valuation.
NOTE: For specific operating instructions, see Section 3
- Electrical System.
Normal Care And Maintenance Should Be Made On
The Following Systems:
Fuel System
Periodically check fuel tank to assure it is full. K eep the fuel
tank f illed to reduce condensation to a minimum and to
assure full running time during emergency operation. Engine
fuel filter should be changed annually or when fouled with
contamination. If contaminated, locate the source and correct. (See Section 3 page 13 for proper procedure). If the
engine runs out of fuel or if the eng ine is out of service for a
considerable length of time, it may be necessary to reprime
the fuel system. Refer to Section 3 for proper procedure.
Page 8
SECTION 2
DDFP
Drive Belts
Adjust the alternator dri ve belts as recommended under the
Preventive Maintenance Section 2.
Storage Battery
Check the batteries. The top should be clean and dry, the terminals tight and protected, and the electrolyte must be at the
proper level. They should be tested weekly to determine the
condition of cells, and the amount of charge.
NOTE: Once each week, check the batteries with a hydrometer; the corrected reading should be 1.265
or higher. Hydrometer readings should be corrected for the temperature of the electrolyte.
Should a problem be detected, locate source and
correct.
Oil Pressure
Normal engine operating oil pressure is 40-70 psi (276-433
kPa). If operating pressure falls below 30 psi (206 kPa), stop
engine and investigate cause.
Crankcase
The oil le vel should be maintained between the Full mark
and Low mark. Check the oil le vel weekly prior to normal
exercise. The oil dipstick is located on the right side of the
engine. Do not check oil level when the engine is running. If
the engine crankcase was refilled, stop the engine after normal operating temperature has been reached, allow the oil to
drain back into the crankcase (approximately 10 minutes)
and check the oil le vel. Add oil, if necessary, to bring it to
the proper level on the dipstick.
NOTE: DO NOT OVER-FILL CRANKCASE.
Use only the recommended lubricating oil specif ied under
Section 3 - Lubricating Oil.
Running Inspection
While the engine is running at operating temperature, check
for coolant, fuel or lubricating oil leaks. Tighten the line
Coolant Temperature
When unit is not running,
engine coolant between 120 -140 de grees F (49-60 C).

When running, engine coolant temperature should re gister
between 180-200 de grees F (82-93 C). See Section 3 for
detailed information.

ELECTRONIC SPEED SWITCH
The speed switch is located on the rear or back side of the

instrument panel.
There are two (2) functions built into the speed switch. First
to terminate starter cranking, once the engine is running.
Second to signal the controller and ef fect an engine shutdown in the event of an engine overspeed condition.
Features of the speed switch are a "manual reset b utton" on
the face of the switch, which must be pushed into reset the
switch should the engine shutdo wn from an o verspeed condition. Additionally, a varification circuit to assist in checking or setting the overspeed set point.
OVERSPEED VARIFICATION
To varify the function of the overspeed signal (SW#2) without overspeeding the engine, install a jumper wire on terminals "C & D" of the speed switch. This will provide the controller with an o verspeed signal and engine shutdo wn at
67% of calibrated RPM.
Start the engine via the controller , the speed switch will
effect an overspeed signal and shutdown protecting both the
engine and pump.
EXAMPLE
CALIBRATION
Both crank terminate (SW#1) and o verspeed (SW#2) set
points, are set at the factory and should not require additional calibration. Adjustments can be made to the set points of
SW#1 and/or SW#2 if required using a je welers screw driver. Turning the corresponding adjustment scre w CW to
increase or CCW to decrease the set point. To access either
adjustment screw remove the small co ver plate on the f ace
of the speed switch.
Crank terminate (SW#1) adjustment should be done reading
"engine crankshaft" speed at the front of the engine using a
hand held tachometer . F or starter protection and optimum
engine stability , this switch should be calibrated to 1000
RPM.
Rated Speed : 2100 RPM

Overspeed Shutdown : 2520 RPM (120% of 2100 RPM)
Varification Shutdown : 1688 RPM (67% of 2520 RPM)
CAUTION
After v arification of SW#2 the jumper wir
e must be
removed and the "reset b utton" pushed in to re-instate normal operation of the engine and speed switch.
Overspeed (SW#2) adjustment should be done r eading "engine crankshaft" speed at the front of the engine using a
hand held tachometer . This switch should be calibrated to
120% of rated speed, but ne ver higher than 3200 RPM.
Refer to the stainless steel nameplate located at the right rear
of the engine for the correct rated speed.

In this Engine Systems section that follows, data is presented in a generalized way for a description of system operation. For specific operational data and system limits, refer
to Section 5. In addition to kno wing the specif ic DDFP
model being operated, make special note of the certif ied

engine operating speed (RPM). Much of the data v aries by
operating RPM - check the FM/UL/ULC certification tag on
the engine flywheel housing for this speed.
FUEL SYSTEM
OPERATION
Fuel is drawn from the supply tank through the fuel strainer
and enters the fuel pump at the inlet side. Upon lea ving the
fuel pump under pressure, the fuel is forced through the fuel
filter and into the fuel inlet manifold where it passes through
fuel pipes into the inlet side of each fuel injector. The fuel is
atomized through small injector spray tip orif ices into the
combustion chamber. Surplus fuel, returning from the injectors, passes through the fuel return manifold and connecting
fuel lines back to the fuel tank. The continuous flow of fuel
through the injectors helps to cool the injectors and to
remove air from the fuel system.
Since the injector is one of the most important and carefully constructed parts of the engine, it is recommended that
the injector be replaced as an assembly if it is not operating
properly. An authorized DDC Distributor/Dealer is equipped
to pro vide ne w and reconditioned replacement injectors.
Under no circumstance should an attempt be made to repair
these injectors. Genuine f actory new or "reliabilt" injectors
should be used for repairs.
FUEL PUMP
FUEL INJECTOR
DDFP Engines are equipped with a positi ve displacement

gear type fuel transfer pump. Fuel pumps are furnished in
either left or right hand rotation according to the engine
model, and are stamped RH or LH. These pumps are not
interchangeable and cannot be rebuilt to operate in an opposite rotation. The fuel pump used on the 53 series engine is
driven by the go vernor assembly on the left rear . On I-71 it
is attached and driven off the rear of the lower engine blower rotor. On VEE engines, the pump is attached and dri ven
off the right front blo wer rotor located on the v ee of the
block.
A spring-loaded relief valve, incorporated in the pump body,
normally remains in the closed position,
operating only
when the pressure on the outlet side (to the fuel f
ilter)
becomes excessive due to a plugged f ilter or fuel line.
The fuel injector combines in a single unit all of the parts

necessary to pro vide complete and independent fuel injection at each c ylinder. The injector creates the high pressure
necessary for fuel injection, meters the proper amount of
fuel, atomizes the fuel, and times the injection into the combustion chamber.
The fuel pump incorporates two oil seals. Two tapped holes
are provided in the underside of the pump body, between the
oil seals, to permit a drain tube to be attached. If fuel leakage exceeds one drop per minute,the seals must be replaced.
An authorized DDC Distributor/Dealer is properly equipped
to replace the seals or to pro vide reconditioned parts.
CHECK VALVE
A check valve is installed between the fuel filter and the fuel
inlet manifold. The check valve is rated to open at approximately 2 psi (13.7 KP A). The fuel tank and supply lines
should be arranged to limit static pressure so that the v alve
remains closed when unit is not running. This valve opens
automatically from fuel pump pressure when the unit starts.

MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE PROCEDURES
Weekly
1). Fuel Tank: Keep the fuel tank f illed to reduce condensation to a minimum. Open drain at the bottom of the
fuel tank once a week to drain of f any possible w ater
and/or sediment. Fill tank after each test run.
NOTE: Per NFPA 20 standards, the fuel tank level must
never be less than 50% of capacity.
2). Fuel: Use a proper grade of #2-D diesel fuel only .
6 Months
Check condition of fuel lines for fraying, leaks or poor condition. Replace as necessary.
Yearly
Change primary and secondary fuel filters. Refer to Section
6 for recommended part numbers.
DIESEL FUEL CONTAMINATION

The most common form of diesel fuel contamination is
water. Water is harmful to the fuel system and it also pr omotes the growth of microbiological or ganisms (microbes).
These microbes clog fuel f ilters with a "slime" and restrict
fuel flow.
Water can be introduced into the fuel supply through poor
maintenance (loose or open fuel tank caps), contaminated
fuel supply or condensation.
Condensation is particularly pre valent on units which stand
idle for e xtended periods of time, such as f ire pump units.
Ambient temperature changes cause condensation in partially filled fuel tanks.
Water accumulation can be controlled by mixing isoprop yl
alcohol (dry gas) into the fuel oil at a ratio of one pint per
125 gallons fuel (or 0.10% by v olume).
Microbe growth can be eliminated through the use of commercially available biocides. There are tw o basic types on
the mark et. The w ater soluble type treats only the tank
I-53 Fuel Filters
where it is introduced. Microbe growth can start again if fuel

is transferred from a treated to an untreated tank. Diesel fuel
soluble type, such as "Biobor" manufactured by U.S. Borax
or equivalent, treats the fuel itself and therefore the entire
fuel system. Please follow manufacturer's recommendations
on useage of these materials.
Engine Out of Fuel
The problems of restarting an engine that has run out of fuel
involves the entire fuel system. After the fuel is e xhausted
from the fuel tank, fuel is then pumped from the primary
fuel strainer and sometimes partially removed from the secondary fuel filter before the fuel supply becomes insufficient
to sustain engine firing.
To ensure prompt starting and smooth running, the fuel system must be pur ged of air and full of fuel from the supply
tank to the restricted fitting at the fuel return line. To accomplish this, a manual priming pump, such as tool P/N J5956
or an electrical type priming pump can be adapted easily to
the fittings provided on the secondary f ilter. To be sure the
injectors are lubricated, priming through the secondary filter
is preferred. The system should be primed until no air is present in the fuel flow from the return line. Pressure should not
exceed 15 psi (103kPa) for ease of handling and safety reasons.
Priming is not al ways necessary if the f ilter elements are
filled with fuel when installed and the fuel manifolds in the
head are not drained of fuel. Prolonged use of the starter
motor and engine fuel pump to prime the system can result
in damage to the starter, fuel pump, injectors and erratic running of the engine, due to the amount of air in the lines and
filters from the supply tank to the c ylinder head.
NOTE: Under no circumstances should a starting aid
such as ether be used to run the engine until the
fuel system is primed. Injector damage will
occur if this method is used. The heat generated
by the external fuel source will cause the tips to
be damaged when the fuel cools them.

AIR INTAKE AND EXHAUST SYSTEM
AIR INTAKE OPERATION

In the scavenging process employed in the engines, a charge
of air is forced into the c ylinders by the blo wer and thoroughly sweeps out all of the b
urned gases through the
exhaust v alves. This air also helps to cool the inter
nal
engine parts, particularly the e xhaust valves. At the be ginning of the compression strok e, therefore, each cylinder is
filled with fresh, clean air which provides for efficient combustion.
AIR CLEANER
The air cleaner used on DDFP engines is either a dry type or
the reusable type. Should a situation occur where the air
cleaner becomes plugged with dirt (starving the engine for
air), low power and heavy black smoke will be the result; the
air cleaner should be serviced immediately.
CAUTION:
Do not attempt to remo ve the air cleaner

while an engine is running nor run the engine
while the air cleaner is of f. Exposed turbocharger could cause se vere injury to personnel and major internal engine damage could
occur should an y foreign matter be dra wn
into the engine.
The air, entering the blo wer from the air cleaner , is picked
up by the blo wer rotor lobes and carried to the dischar ge
side of the blo wer as indicated by the arro ws in Figure 1 &
2, Page 1. The continuous dischar ge of fresh air from the
blower enters the air chamber of the c ylinder block and
sweeps through the intake ports of the cylinder liners.
The angle of the ports in the c ylinder liners creates a uniform swirling motion to the intak e air as it enters the c ylinders. This motion persists throughout the compr
ession
The air cleaner manufacturer recommends the following:

1. On engines using dry elements, replace the air cleaner
element.
2. On engines with pre-oiled elements, service with a special oil. These elements can be serviced or replaced. Part
number is shown in the parts section of this manual.
3. When servicing the element is not practical, you can improve filter efficiency by re-spraying with oil.
NOTE: Do not attempt this while engine is running.
NOTE: Do not over oil.

AIR BOX DRAINS

During normal engine operation,
water v apor from the
intake air, as well as a slight amount of fuel and lubricating
oil fumes, condenses and settles on the bottom of the air
box. This condensation is remo ved by the air box pressure
through air box drain tubes mounted on the side of the cylinder block.
Liquid accumulation in the air box will result if a drain tube

becomes plugged. Remo ve the drain tubes and connectors
from the c ylinder block and clean them thoroughly when
necessary.
CRANKCASE VENTILATION
Harmful vapors which may form within the engine are removed from the crankcase, gear train, and injector compart-
I-53
ments by a continuous, pressurized ventilation system.
I-71
Figure 2 - Crankcase Ventilation
A slight pressure is maintained within the engine crankcase

and injector compartment. This crankcase pressure and resulting ventilation is accomplished by the air seepage past
the piston rings sweeping up through the flywheel housing
and/or the balance weight co ver into the v alve and injector

SECTION 3.2
DDFP
EXHAUST OPERATION
Internal comb ustion engines con vert fuel ener gy into both
useful w ork and w asted heat. The useful w ork is the flywheel rotation that dri ves the pump. The w asted heat
involves the engine water cooling system, radiated heat and
the exhaust gases. Approximately 2/3 of the fuel ener gy is
wasted. Critical re view must be made of these systems to
assure that the engine delivers the useful power required and
maintains the engine within the operating parameters established by the engine manufacturer.
The exhaust system is critical to the proper engine performance. When initially installed, consideration must be gi ven
to the e xhaust gas flow requirements, the exhaust temperatures and the e xhaust back-pressure limitations of the specific engine. Generally , N engines can tolerate a higher
exhaust pressure than T engines. Refer to Section 5 for specific engine model and operating speed back-pressure limitations. All the components in an e xhaust system contribute
to the back-pressure determination including the fle
x
exhaust section, muffler, exhaust piping and its conf iguration. In addition to providing engine exhaust data and backpressure limitations, Clarke of fers a service to installers,
through the local Pump OEM Dealer , for making recommendations on e xhaust system sizing for specif ic installations.
Weekly
Prior to each maintenance run mak e a visual check of the
exhaust system to v erify condition of piping and muf fler (if
used). Investigate thoroughly an y areas that w ould appear to
have rusty conditions such as rain w ater running do wn pipe
and getting inside the engine. Se vere internal engine damage
could occur.
Inspect the engine air cleaner for dirt b uildup or damage.
During actual maintenance run check engine crankcase ventilation tube for excessive blow-by or pressure.
6 Months
Inspect exhaust system for leaks or plugging,if any are found,
repair immediately. Inspect and tighten if necessary e xhaust
manifold, turbo mount (if equipped) and piping bolts/n uts.
NFPA 37 requirements are to ha ve the e xhaust system co vered with high temperature insulation for personnel protection. Inspect the insulations condition for any deterioration or
looseness, repair as necessary.
Exhaust system back pressure limits are not to be e xceeded.
If the e xhaust system should become restricted, the hot e xhaust gases cannot escape from the engine. This condition
would cause a loss of po wer, extreme internal engine heat,
and v ery high e xhaust gas temperatures. These conditions
can and will cause internal cylinder damage and a reduction
of engine life.
Some engines are turbocharged (T). Turbochargers increase
the air flo w into the engine c ylinder and permit increased
horsepower by burning more fuel than is possible in a naturally aspirated (N) engine. Turbochargers enhance the ef ficiencies of engines and add power to a similar displacement
(N) engine.
Basically, turbochargers are maintenance free. Ho wever,
should any exhaust manifold studs or bolts break or come
loose, engine exhaust gases can start leaking into the pump
room. Under these conditions, the engine should be attended to immediately . First indications of an e xhaust leak
would be the smell of diesel exhaust and possible eye irritation. Unless f ire pump maintenance personnel are well
versed in a repair of turbochar gers and e xhaust systems,
contact your local Distributor/Dealer for assistance.
NOTE: Exhaust back pressure, air inlet restriction and

crankcase pressure limits are listed for each
DDFP Model in Technical Data Section 5. These
limits are not to be e xceeded. To properly check
these limits, the engine must be producing maximum required horsepower.
While the engine is running inspect e xhaust pipe outlet outside of the pump room itself for en vironmental hazards such
as excessive smoke conditions. The following could be used
as a guide for general engine operating conditions.
1. Blue Smoke Possible engine oil consumption - too
many areas to list for possibilities.
2. White Smoke Possibility of water in cylinders
Source Possible w ater in fuel or internal engine problem.
Should any of these or any other conditions be found, contact
your local DDC Distrib utor/Dealer for assistance. Check
condition of the air inlet system ducting, clamp tightness hose
condition.
Yearly
Clean and re-oil the air cleaner element per the manufacturers
directions. Each engine is shipped with the cleaning instructions. Refer to Figure 1, page 17.
Check crankcase v entilation tube for proper operation by
making a visual inspection while engine is running.

LUBRICATION SYSTEM
OPERATION
OIL COOLER
The lubricating oil system is schematically illustrated in

Figures 1, 2 and 3 for the Inline and VEE engines. The system consists of an oil pump, oil cooler, a full-flow oil filter,
by-pass valves at the oil cooler and filter, and pressure regulator valves at the pump and in the c ylinder block main oil
gallery. Positive lubrication is ensured at all times by this
system.
All engines use a plate type oil cooler. Between each engine
model, the major dif ference lies in the number of plates in
each cooler. The number of plates required is determined by
engine horsepo wer de veloped. All the oil cooler systems
incorporate oil bypass valves in the event of plate core plugging.
Oil for lubricating the connecting rod bearings, piston pins,

and for cooling the piston head, is pro vided through the
drilled hole in the crankshaft from the adjacent forw
ard
main bearings. The gear train is lubricated by the o verflow
of the oil from the camshaft pock et through a connecting
passage into the flywheel housing from the camshaft, balance shaft, and idler gear bearings. The blower drive gear
bearing is lubricated through an e xternal pipe from the rear
horizontal oil passage of the c ylinder block.
On the Inline engines the oil from the cam pocket enters the
blower and overflows through two holes, one at each end of
the blo wer housing, providing lubrication for the blo wer
drive gears at the rear end and for the go vernor mechanism
at the front. On the VEE engines, the blower drive gear is
lubricated from the rear of the blo wer.
It should be understood that improper engine maintenance

could adv ersely effect the ef ficiency of the oil cooler system. Please refer to the technical data Section 5, for specific lube oil temperature and engine coolant temperature
ranges for each engine model.
LUBE OIL FILL

On I-71 engines, the oil fill is located on the right rear . On
the VEE engines, it is found in the right bank v alve rocker
cover. On the 53 Series engine, the oil fill is also located on
the rocker cover. See technical data, Section 5 for oil v olumes and specif ications on each engine model. A typical
oil fill location is shown in Figure 5, Page 24.
LUBE OIL PUMP

The positive displacement gear type pump is mounted to the
main bearing caps on I-71 and dri ven from the front end of
the crankshaft. On the I-53,V-71 and V-92 engines the pump
is found in the lower front cover and driven by the front end
of the crankshaft. The I-71, V-71 and V-92 have a pressure
relief located on the dischar ge side of the pump, which
maintains pressure being delivered to the oil filter and cooler. The I-53 engine does not use a pressure relief v alve but
does incorporate the use of the f ilter and oil cooler bypass
valve to maintain pressure.
All four engines use an oil pressure regulator valve to maintain oil g alley minimum pressures. See technical data
Section 5 for specifics per engine model.
OIL LEVEL DIPSTICK

On most DDFP engines, the dipstick is located on the lower
left side. Exceptions are the I-71 and 12V92 models where
the dipstick is located on the right. Oil level can be checked
only when the engine is at rest (not running). Oil levels must
be maintained between the low and full marks.
NOTE: Due to the basic engine design, DDC engines
retain large volumes of oil in the block while
running. For this reason, proper oil level cannot
be checked immediately after engine shut of f.
Wait approximately 10 minutes before checking oil le vel. Do not add oil to a running
engine; overfilling can occur!

LUBE OIL FILTER
All engines use full flow oil filters of the "spin on" type element. They have a non-replaceable pleated paper cartridge.
Each filter has an integral bypass valve in the event of plugging or for cold start purposes.
NOTE: Use only appro ved f ilters with the recommended f iltration micron rating. See parts list

LUBRICATING OIL REQUIREMENTS

Hundreds of commercial oils are mark eted today, but labeling terminology differs among suppliers and can be confusing. Some mark eters may claim that their lubricant is suitable for all mak es of diesel engines and may list engine
makes and types, including Detroit Diesel, on their containers. Such claims, by themselves, are insufficient as a method
of lubricant selection for DDFP engines.
The proper lubricating oil for all DDFP engines is selected,
based on SAE Viscosity Grade and API (American
Petroleum Institute) Service Designation. Both of these
properties are displayed in the API Symbol, which is illustrated within the specif ic requirements. F or DDFP engines,
the proper lubricant must also possess a sulfated ash content
below 1.0% mass.
Lubricating oils for Non-T actical Military usage currently
*CF-2 when available
SAE Viscosity Grade: 40

API Classification: CDII or CF2
Sulfated Ash: less than 1.0%
This is the only oil recommended for Detroit Diesel Engines

used in DDFP service. Lubricants meeting these criteria
have provided maximum engine life when used in conjunction with recommended oil drain and f ilter maintenance
schedules.
Certain engines operating conditions may require e
tions to this recommendation. They are as follows:
xcep-
1. For continuous high temperature operation (o ver 100 F

38 C Ambient), the use of SAE 50 grade lubricant in all
DDFP engines is recommended.
2. The API Performance Cate gory CF2 represents an enhanced level of lubricant performance o ver CD-II category which it replaces. Lubricants meeting this new performance level may not be readily available. During this
interim period oils labeled as API CD-II may be used.
3. When the use of High Sulfur Diesel Fuel (greater than
0.5% mass) is una voidable, the use of lubricants with
higher Total Base Numbers (alkalinity) are recommended. Refer to Fig. 4 for minimum TBN numbers to be
used for normal service.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE PROCEDURE

Weekly
1). Check oil le vel with the engine stopped. Please refer to
"note" listed in Section 3 under oil le vel dipstick for
proper oil level check.
Page 22
SECTION 3.3
DDFP
2). During and after weekly maintenance run, check o ver

entire engine for signs of oil leaks. Repair immediately
if found or call your authorized DDC Distributor/Dealer
for service.
NOTE: If oil is observed coming from the air box drain
tubes while running, review maintenance procedure on page 19.
Yearly
Stationary diesel engines collect condensation in the engine
oil pan while at rest. When in use, lubricating oil undergoes
deterioration from combustion by-products and contamination. For these reasons, regardless of the appearance of the
oil, change oil and filter(s) annually.
CAUTION: Use only recommended lube oil and oil f ilters. Internal engine damage and/or excessive wear could
occur using unauthorized materials.
LUBRICATING OIL ANALYSIS

Oil Analysis kits are available through the DDC Distributor
Network for ef ficient monitoring of the lubricating oil in a
DDFP engine. Refer to Parts Information Section 6 to order.
Oil Analysis consists of a series of laboratory tests conducted on the engines lubricant. Some tests sho w the condition
of the engine and others show the condition of the lubricant.

OPERATION
The heat resulting from combustion in the engine cannot be
fully converted into kinetic ener gy. A major portion of that
heat is absorbed by the coolant from the c ylinder walls and
cylinder heads and must be carried away from the engine. It
is the function of the Heat Exchanger to transfer w
aste
engine heat to the raw cooling water.
Inside the heat e xchanger tank Fig. 1 is a heat e xchanger
core, somewhat similar to a miniature radiator
. Engine
coolant circulates around the heat exchanger core while cool
raw water, from a tap on the pressure side of the f ire pump,
is circulated inside the core carrying a way the heat. The installing contractor mak es the ra w w ater discharge connection at time of system installation.

A 50% water and 50% anti-freeze solution is
required for pump installations. Premixing
this solution prior to installing is required.
This prevents possible pure anti-freeze chemical reactions to block heater elements which
can burn out the element. Please see the technical data Section 5 for proper cooling system capacities of each model.
WATER
Water can produce a corrosi ve environment in the cooling
system, and the mineral content may permit scale deposits to
form on internal cooling surfaces. Therefore, inhibitors must
be added to control corrosion, cavitation, and scale deposits.
Chlorides, sulfates, magnesium and calcium are among the
materials which mak e up dissolv ed solids that may cause
scale deposits, sludge deposits, corrosion or a combination
of these. Chlorides and/or sulf ates tend to accelerate corrosion, while hardness (percentage of magnesium and calcium
salts broadly classif ied as carbonates) causes deposits of
scale. Water within the limits specif ied in Fig. 2 is satisfac-
Use an eth ylene glycol coolant (lo w silicate formulation)

that meets or exceeds the standard of either the GM 6038-M
formulation (GM 1899-M performance) or ASTM D 4985
requirements.
A 50% coolant/water solution is normally used. Concentrations over 70% are not recommended because of poor heat
transfer capability, adverse freeze protection and possible
silicate dropout. Concentrations belo w 30% of fer little
freeze, boil over or corrosion protection.
COOLANT INHIBITOR
The importance of a properly inhibited coolant cannot be
over-emphasized. A coolant which has insuf ficient or no
inhibitors at all, invites the formation of rust, scale, sludge
and mineral deposits. These deposits can greatly reduce the
cooling systems efficiency and protection capabilities.
DDC-recommended supplemental coolant inhibitors are a
combination of chemical compounds which pro vide corrosion protection, cavitation suppression, pH controls and prevent scale. These inhibitors are a vailable in v arious forms,
such as liquid packages or inte gral parts of anti-freeze.
It is imperative that supplemental inhibitors be added to all
DDFP engine systems. A pre-charge dosage must be used at
the initial fill and the maintenance dosage used at each service interv al. Serious damage will occur unless inhibitors
are used. Some of the more common corrosion inhibitors
are borates, nitrates and silicates.
Inhibitors become depleted through normal operation, additional inhibitors must be added to the coolant as required to
maintain original strength le vels. Refer to Fig. 3 for proper
concentrations of inhibitors.
Do not use soluble oils or chromate inhibitors in DDFP
engines. Detrimental effects will occur.

Analysis Kit. This kit can be purchased for nominal fee for
analyzing the condition of the engine's coolant.
PROCEDURE FOR FILLING ENGINE

During filling of the cooling system, air pockets may form.
The system must be pur ged of air prior to being put in service. This is best accomplished by f illing with a pre-mix
solution, to the top of f iller neck. Install the pressure cap,
start and run engine until the temperature staabilizes at
approximately 170 - 190 F (77 - 91 C). During this
warming process, you may
To verify that the coolant is at a safe operating level, it's best

to wait until the engine temperature drops to approximately
120F (49C), or lower, before removing the pressure cap.
After the cap is removed, the level should be within 2 inches (51mm) of the filler neck.
NOTE: I-71 engines have incorporated the use of a coolant
recovery bottle (white plastic bottle) Fig 4. During
initial filling of the cooling system, it will be necessary to f ill the Reco very Bottle to the Cold Full
line with the pre-mix solution. Start and run the
engine as indicated abo ve. After reaching normal
operating temperature check the coolant le vel in
the recovery bottle to v erify that the le vel is at the
Hot Full line, if not add coolant to the bottle.
Following the same instructions as abo ve, wait for
the engine coolant temperature to drop before
removing the pressure cap.
The coolant le vel
should be at the pre viously mention height. The
coolant level must remain between Hot and Cold
run lines on the recovery bottle.
CAUTION: Do not remove pressure cap while coolant is at
normal operating temperatures. Possible personal injury could result from the expulsion of
hot coolant.
PRESSURE CAP
Like most cooling systems, the Heat Exchanger type operates under pressure. A typical cap shown in Fig. 5 maintains
system pressure to raise the coolant boiling point and permits a some what higher operating temperature without
coolant loss. Pressure cap values can vary in different engine
series. Refer to Section 5 for your engine type.
All pressure caps include a v acuum valve which opens during cool down. This prevents an internal vacuum from being
formed which could contrib ute to leaking seals and hoses
collapsing.
Fig. 4 - Coolant Recovery Bottle

see coolant coming from the o verflow tube attached at the
pressure cap location. This is a normal condition since the
coolant expands as it heats up. When the o verflow ceases,
stop the engine.
NOTE: I-71 engines use a coolant reco very bottle. The

pressure cap includes a rubber ring-type seat.
When the cap installed this ring forms a positi ve
seal between the filler neck and cap. During engine
cool down, if the wrong type cap is used, coolant
cannot transfer back into the heat e xchanger from
the recovery bottle. This can progress into an overheated engine and possible damage.
NOTE: Air entrapment in I-53 engines is v ery lik ely to

occur due to cooling system design. Upon initial
fill with a pre-mix solution. It is recommended that
the coolant be allowed to stand for a four hour period prior to starting.

SECTION 3.4
COOLANT PUMP
The engine water pump is a centrifugal impeller type pump.
It is gear dri ven on the I-71, V-71 and V-92 Series engines
and belt dri ven on the I-53 Series engines. The rebuildable
pump utilizes a shaft and sealed bearing assembly. The V-71
and V-92 incorporate an oil seal and tw o splash lubricated ball type bearings. Each pump also included a w
ater
pump seal weep hole. Should a coolant leak occur at this
location, the pump seal must be replaced. Contact your local
DDC Distrib utor/Dealer for assistance. Should a replacement pump be required for repair , use only the e xact same
type of pump.
THERMOSTAT
Each pump engine is equipped with a temperature controlling thermostat(s). Normal operating ranges will vary due to
engine horsepower and operating speed. The thermostat(s)
are located at the front of the c
ylinder heads. Refer to
Section 5 for specif ic operating temperatures for each
engine.
ENGINE COOLANT HEATER

Fire pump engines must be able to assume full load immediately when used for emergency service. NFPA-20 specifications require an engine coolant heater Figure 6, Page 29,
to maintain a minimum temperature of 120 F . (49 C).
Maintaining this temperature assists the engine to start easily and produce rated horsepo wer immediately . F or f ire
pump units operation in cold climates optional oil heaters
are a vailable to k eep the engines lubricating oil at a safe
temperature for emer gency start purposes. If pump room
temperatures drop belo w 50 F (10 C), oil heaters are
required.
CAUTION: Do not acti vate the AC circuit unless the

engine cooling system has been f illed.
A pre-mix solution must be used. Chemical
reactions will occur if pure Ethylene Glycol
anti-freeze is allo wed to f ill the heater ca vity
with AC circuit is activated.
HEAT EXCHANGER COOLING

The heat e xchanger cooling system is illustrated in Fig. 1,
Page 25.
Raw water from the f ire pump passes through the heat e xchanger core where it lowers the engine coolant temperature
10-15 F (-12 -9 C).Typical raw water connection points
on the heat exchanger are shown in Fig. 7, Page 29.
HOSES
Specific areas on each DDFP engine use hoses to transfer
coolant to and from heat exchangers and immersion heaters.
Regular inspections are necessary to v erify that no leaks
exist. Should replacements be required contact your local
DDC Distributor/Dealer for assistance.
NOTE: Silicon Hose material for the immersion heaters
must meet SAE J20 Requirements with a maximum heat operating range of 350 F (177 C). Do
not replace these hoses with any other type material.
NOTE: Hose clamps required for silicon type hose, must
have a shielded inner band or be of a constant
torque type (spring loaded). If the second type is
used, do not collapse spring by o ver tightening.
On the initial installation of each f ire pump engine, it is the

responsibility of the installing contractor to wire the heater
to the pump room AC circuit. See Section 3 Electrical AC
Wiring Diagram, Page 39, for correct wiring to the heater
disconnect switch.

RAW WATER SYSTEM (Cooling Loop)
ZINC ELECTRODE
This system is provided by the pump manufacturer or pump

assembler as part of the complete engine-pump-controller
package. Components for the raw water system are selected
to ensure adequate flo w through the heat e xchanger as
required by the engine at specif ic ra w w ater temperature.
The raw water system is generally referred to as the "cooling loop". A typical cooling loop includes the follo wing
components as shown in Fig. 8, Page 29;
A sacrifical zinc anode is included with each heat e xchanger. Over a period of time, normal electrotic action will occur
between dissimiliar metals within the heat e xchanger. The
rate of material transfer is dependent on the electrolitic
strength of the transfer media (ra w w ater). It is the zinc
anode that gi ves up material in this process and thus preserves the integrity of the heat exchanger.

2. Water strainers
3. Pressure regulator

4. Solenoid valve (DC)
1) Check coolant le vel weekly. The level should be within

two inches of the filler neck. Because this is a closed system, when operating temperature is reached, the pressure
relief cap may allo w some e xcess coolant to e xpell out
the o verflow tube until a stabilized le vel is reached.
Refer to procedure for filling engine in this section.
5. Pressure gauge
The heat e xchanger discharge line should be one pipe size
larger than the supply line. Additionally, it is recommended
that the discharge line rise a minimum of 3" to maintain raw
water across the entire cooling core. Discharge is made to an
open waste cone as specified in NFPA-20.
CAUTION: Damage to the heat exchanger may result if
raw w ater plumbing (supply or dischar ge) weight or
stress is applied to the heat e xchanger.
The solenoid valve may be omitted on vertical turbine pump
installations where no static pressure e xists in the heat e xchanger supply line while the engine is not running. Each
engine has a minimum requirement of ra
w w ater flo w.
Correct flow through the heat exchanger is critical for maintaining the proper engine operating temperature.
Engine coolant temperature can be adversely affected by insufficient raw water flow and by excessive ambient temperature of the ra w water. See the technical data Section 5 for
each engine model's minimum raw water flow requirements
at 60 F (16 C) and 95 F (35 C) at specified engine RPM
ranges. Do not exceed raw water pressure allowance within
the heat exchanger.
NOTE: Although engine operating temperature may
appear normal, engine cooling may be compromised and possible engine damage will result if
raw water flow is reduced.
Check the condition of the pressure relief cap. The rubber

seat should be in sound condition. If it is crack ed, split or
frayed, do not use. Do not attempt to run engine without a
pressure cap. Each cap has a relief rating, which is not to be
altered if a replacement cap is required. Refer to Section 5
for specific cap type and rating for each engine.
2) Inspect all hoses for leaks, repair or replace as necessary.
Annually
Check coolant inhibitor concentration, if not within v alues
shown in Fig. 2 re-inhibite as necessary.
Check Zinc Electrode, if more than half is deteriorated electrode should be replaced. Contact your local DDC
Distributor/Dealer for replacements.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ENGINE OPERATING SYSTEM
ENGINE HEATERS
The DDFP engines used for f ire pump service include tw o

electrical systems. F irst is the engine heater system (A C),
second is the engine starting system (DC). The starting and
control circuits are inte gral with the DC wiring harness b ut
are separated for explaining operation, maintenance and service procedures. Engines are supplied with either a 12 or 24
V-DC system. Depending upon the specif ic model (refer to
Section 5). This includes a starting motor, battery charging
alternator, wiring harness, battery insulator, manual contactors, run-stop solenoid and tw o battery systems. F or identification reasons only, usually 12 V-DC systems have 2 batteries, 24 V-DC systems ha ve 4. Under normal operating
conditions, signals for running and shutdown are transmited
from the AEC. With the controller switch on "automatic", a
specific drop in the fire main line pressure or other pre-programmed signal will result in a start of the diesel engine.
Reference the DC wiring diagram Fig. 13, Page 37 or Fig.
14, Page 38.
NFPA-20 specif ications require that the engine coolant be

maintained at 120 F (54 C) minimum. Additionally, if the
pump room temperature should fall below 50 F (10 C), an
engine oil heater is recommended. Both coolant and oil
heaters use AC power.
All Clarke DDFP engines include immersion heaters. Typically these heaters are mounted at the front of the engine.
Some models ha ve horizontal mounting and others are
mounted vertical. See Fig. 6, Page 29. Heater w attage ratings v ary with engine size. (Refer to Section 5).
These
heaters are wired to an AC junction box mounted on the
engine.
CAUTION: SHUT OFF AC VOLTAGE BEFORE

SERVICING ENGINE HEATER
CAUTION: These engines have been pre-set for a specif ic

operational speed (RPM). When started, the
engine will quickly reach this setting. The engines do not have idle speed settings. With the
AEC switch on "T est", the engine can be test
started from the controller using either battery
system A or B. Engine stopping is accomplished by switching the controller selector to
the "Off" position. Consult the AEC operating
manual for specific operational instructions.
NOTE: Prior to turning the AEC to an y position other
than automa tic, please read the paragraph
labeled "IMPORTANT" in Section 2, Page 11.
The engine DC starting and control system terminates at the
DC junction box. The junction box location varies on different engine models, one is typically sho wn in Fig. 5. From
this point, the engine is electrically connected to the automatic engine controller (AEC). Both automatic operation
and test signals are sent to the engine from the AEC. Under
emergency conditions, and if the AEC should become defective or disconnected from the engine for an y reason, it is
possible to start the engine by operating the manual contactors. Specific emergency operating instructions are attached
to the instrument panel and explained in detail under MANUAL STARTING of this section. Engine wiring diagrams

GOVERNOR OPERATING SOLENOID

The DC go vernor solenoid, Fig. 6, Page 32, is an essential
item for the operation of this fire pump system. Upon receiving a signal, the solenoid is energized to move the governor
into the run position.
This solenoid remains ener gized during engine operation.
To stop the engine, the solenoid de-energizes and the governor returns to the "no fuel" position by spring action.
Tachometer and Integral Hourmeter - This meter receives its signal from the o verspeed switch to allo w operator

When electric motors, generators, engines, compressors and
other machines are fitted with sleeve or straight roller bearings,
limited axial end float kits are recommended for protecting the
bearings. Falk Steelflex couplings are easily modified to limit
end float; refer to Manual 428-820 for instructions.
LUBRICATION
Adequate lubrication is essential for satisfactory operation. Page
2 provides a list of typical lubricants and specifications for
general purpose and long term greases. Because of its superior
lubricating characteristics and low centrifuge properties, Falk
Long Term Grease (LTG) is highly recommended. Sizes 1020T
to 1090T10 are furnished with a pre-measured amount of
grease for each coupling. The grease can be ordered for larger
size couplings.
The use of general purpose grease requires re-lubrication of the
coupling at least annually.
Long Term Grease (LTG)

The high centrifugal forces encountered in couplings separate
the base oil and thickener of general purpose greases. Heavy
thickener, which has no lubrication qualities, accumulates
in the grid-groove area of Steelflex couplings resulting in
premature hub or grid failure unless periodic lubrication cycles
are maintained.
Falk Long Term Grease (LTG) was developed specifically for
couplings. It resists separation of the oil and thickener and is an
extreme pressure grease.
Steelflex couplings initially lubricated with LTG will not require
re-lubrication until the connected equipment is stopped for
servicing. If a coupling leaks grease, is exposed to extreme
temperatures, excessive moisture, or experiences frequent
reversals, more frequent lubrication may be required.
Although LTG grease is compatible with most other coupling
greases, the mixing of greases may dilute the benefits of LTG.
USDA Approval
LTG has the United States Department of Agriculture Food
Safety & Inspection Service approval for applications where
there is no possibility of contact with edible products. (H-2
ratings).
CAUTION: Do not use LTG in bearings.

INSTALLATION OF TYPE T10 STEELFLEX

TAPERED GRID COUPLINGS
Installation
Only standard mechanics tools, wrenches, a straight edge and
feeler gauges are required to install Falk Steelflex couplings.
Coupling Sizes 1020T thru 1090T are generally furnished
for CLEARANCE FIT with setscrew over the keyway. Sizes
1100T and larger are furnished for an INTERFERENCE FIT
without a setscrew.
CLEARANCE FIT HUBS Clean all parts using a nonflammable solvent. Check hubs, shafts and keyways for burrs.
Do not heat clearance fit hubs. Install keys, mount hubs with
flange face flush with shaft ends or as otherwise specified and
tighten setscrews.
INTERFERENCE FIT HUBS Furnished without setscrews. Heat
hubs to a maximum of 275F (135C) using an oven, torch,
induction heater or an oil bath.
When an oxy-acetylene or blow torch is used, use an excess
acetylene mixture. Mark hubs near the center of their length in
several places on hub body with a temperature sensitive crayon,
275F (135C) melt temperature. Direct flame towards hub bore
using constant motion to avoid overheating an area.

WARNING: If an oil bath is used, the oil must have a flash

point of 350F (177C) or higher. Do not rest hubs on the
bottom of the container. Do not use an open flame in a
combustible atmosphere or near combustible materials.
Heat hubs as instructed above. Mount hubs as quickly as possible
with hub flange face flush with shaft end. Allow hubs to cool before
proceeding. Insert setscrews (if required) and tighten.
(Page 3 of 6)
Use a spacer bar equal in thickness to the gap specified in

Table 2, Page 5. Insert bar as shown below left, to same depth
at 90intervals and measure clearance between bar and hub
face with feelers. The difference in minimum and maximum
measurements must not exceed the ANGULAR installation limits
specified in Table 2.
3 Offset Alignment
Maximize Performance And Life

The performance and life of couplings depend largely upon
how you install and maintain them. Before installing couplings,
make certain that foundations of equipment to be connected
meet manufacturers requirements. Check for soft foot. The use
of stainless steel shims is recommended. Measuring
misalignment and positioning equipment within alignment
tolerances is simplified with an alignment computer. These
calculations can also be done graphically or mathematically.
Alignment is shown using spacer bar and straight edge. This
practice has proven to be adequate for many industrial
applications. However, for superior final alignment, the use of
dial indicators (see Manual 458-834 for instructions), lasers,
alignment computers or graphical analysis is recommended.
1 Mount Seals And Hubs
Align so that a straight edge rests squarely (or within the limits
specified in Table 2) on both hubs as shown above and also at
90intervals. Check with feelers. The clearance must not
exceed the PARALLEL OFFSET installation limits specified in
Table 2. Tighten all foundation bolts and repeat Steps 2 and 3.
Realign coupling if necessary.
4 Insert Grid
Lock out starting switch of prime mover. Clean all metal parts
using a non-flammable solvent. Lightly coat seals with grease
and place on shafts BEFORE mounting hubs. Heat interference
fit hubs as previously instructed. Seal keyways to prevent
leakage. Mount hubs on their respective shafts so the hub face
is flush with the end of its shaft unless otherwise indicated.
Tighten setscrews when furnished.
2 Gap and Angular Alignment
Pack gap and grooves with specified lubricant before inserting grid.
When grids are furnished in two or more segments, install them so
that all cut ends extend in the same direction (as detailed in the
exploded view picture above); this will assure correct grid contact
with non-rotating pin in cover halves. Spread the grid slightly to
pass over the coupling teeth and seat with a soft mallet.

ANNUAL MAINTENANCE
For extreme or unusual operating conditions, check coupling
more frequently.
1. Check alignment per steps on Page 3. If the maximum operating misalignment limits are exceeded, realign the coupling
to the recommended installation limits. See Table 2 for installation and operating alignment limits.
2. Check tightening torques of all fasteners.
3. Inspect seal ring and gasket to determine if replacement is
required. If leaking grease, replace.
4. When connected equipment is serviced, disassemble the
coupling and inspect for wear. Replace worn parts. Clean
grease from coupling and repack with new grease. Install
coupling using new gasket as instructed in this manual.
Periodic Lubrication
The required frequency of lubrication is directly related to the type

of lubricant chosen, and the operating conditions. Steelflex

ALIGNMENT DATA
Maximum life and minimum maintenance for the coupling and
connected machinery will result if couplings are accurately
aligned. Coupling life expectancy between initial alignment and
maximum operating limits is a function of load, speed and
lubrication. Maximum operating values listed in Table 2 are
based on cataloged allowable rpm.
Values listed are based upon the use of the gaps listed,
standard coupling components, standard assemblies and
cataloged allowable speeds.
(Page 5 of 6)
Values may be combined for an installation or operating condition.

Example: 1060T max. operating misalignment is .016" parallel
plus .018" angular.
NOTE: For applications requiring greater misalignment, refer
application details to the Factory.
Angular misalignment is dimension X minus Y as illustrated below.
Parallel misalignment is distance P between the hub center lines
as illustrated below.
End float (with zero angular and parallel misalignment) is the axial
