Installation, Operations & Maintenance Manual
SECTION 2 - INSTALLATION
2.2 UNPACKING
Units are shipped Free on Board (FOB) factory
and the title passes to the customer when the
carrier signs for receipt of the unit. In the event
that damages occur during shipment, it is the
responsibility of the customer to notify the carrier
immediately and to file a damage claim.
Carefully examine the shipping crate/box upon
receipt from carrier to be sure there is no obvious
damage to contents. Open the crate/box carefully
so accessory items fastened to the inside of the
crate/box will not be damaged or lost. Examine
all material inside crate/box and check against
packing list to be sure that all items are accounted
for and intact.
2.3 STORAGE/IDLE SERVICE
Several ECC components are steel and are subject
to corrosive attack during storage/idle time in hot,
humid environments. The ECC covers are not air
tight. In humid environments, the humidity in the
air can condense during cooler evenings, even
to the extent that water can accumulate inside
the housing. Milton Roy does not warrant against
damage caused by corrosion or atmospheric
conditions.
With reasonable care at the site, the products and
packaging methods will effectively protect new,
uninstalled units from corrosion due to water and
water vapor for up to one year.
FAILURE TO PROPERLY STORE
AND PROTECT THE EQUIPMENT
MAY VOID ANY WARRANTY, EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED.
OUTDOOR STORAGE IS NOT RECOMMENDED UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES UNLESS SPECIFICALLY PREPARED FOR
STORAGE PRIOR TO SHIPMENT FROM THE FACTORY.
The amount of time the ECC can remain in storage
or idle service can be extended. Depleted, factory
installed desiccant can be removed and replaced
with new desiccant. Visit the factory website
(www.miltonroy.com)
for instructions to properly
extend ECC storage.

2.4 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
When installing, operating, and maintaining
the ECC, keep safety considerations foremost.
Use proper tools, protective clothing and eye
protection when working on the equipment and
install the equipment with a view toward ensuring
safe operation. Follow the instructions in this
manual and take additional safety measures
appropriate to the liquid being pumped. Be
extremely careful in the presence of hazardous
substances (e.g. corrosives, toxics, solvents, acids,
caustics and flammables etc.)
2.5 MOUNTING
The Milton Roy ECC is commonly shipped already
mounted on a pump. Because of this, installation
usually requires connecting the power and signal
wires. If the ECC was shipped without a pump,
mounting to your pump and minor calibration
adjustment is required (Full calibration is performed
at the factory and only limited calibration is required
after mounting). ECCs installed on pumps outdoors
should be protected by a shelter. Care should be
taken to keep condensation and moisture from
entering via the electrical conduit.
