Pump Baseplate Installation and Epoxy
Grouting*
The goal of this section is to present a proven method of pump base-
plate installation using epoxy grout with zero voids. While this method is
not the only way to achieve a 100 percent void-free grout job, it has been
designed to shorten pump installation and alignment time by employing a
“one pour” grout procedure.
