I have been fighting the old 'pump room not big enough' frustration and it occurred to me the alignment requirements would not apply to an In-Line Vertical, right?
First and foremost is the wording itself; "...parallel to a horizontal split-case pump shaft..." , because DUH the shaft on an In-Line Vertical is vertical. And with the impeller being horizontal there is not much one can do to get equal velocity on each side of the impeller because there is a top and bottom instead of sides. If this thinking is correct I hope it saves a Sprink some time and aggravation down the road. thanks, Brad Casterline, NICET IV Fire Protection Division FSC, Inc.
