The design, materials and workmanship incorporated in the
manufacture of Ebsray pumps make them capable of
reliable operation over a long working life. Correct
installation and operation is essential. Service life is
enhanced by periodic inspection and careful maintenance.
Installation and servicing of
this equipment should be
performed by qualified competent personnel in
accordance with
relevant Directives, Standards, Codes,
Regulations and site restrictions, in conjunction with
these instructions.
When the equipment supplied utilises components other
than those manufactured by Ebsray e.g. electrical
equipment, switches, fittings, valves, etc reference should
be made to the original manufacturer's data before
installation or servicing is commenced. Failure to observe
these details may void the Warranty.
The pump/pumpset must be
operated within the original
selected design parameters of pumped product (Use
only LPG of internationally accepted (ISO) quality and
specification), speed, flow, pressure, temperature,
voltage
and current. Should any change be
contemplated, please confer with Ebsray in order to
verify the suitability of such a change
1.2 TRANSPORTATION, PACKING & STORAGE
Standard domestic packing is suitable for shipment in
covered transports. Pump ports must be sealed to exclude
ingress of condensation, moisture or foreign material. When
received on site the Pumpset must be stored in a dry covered
area.
NOTE:
If Pump is not installed and commissioned
immediately, special preservative techniques will be
required. (Refer to Ebsray). e.g. If the Pump is
installed, but not commissioned, low pressure nitrogen
can be used to purge, seal and protect the Pump from
the effects of condensation and atmospheric corrosion.
NEVER allow water or any
corrosive product to enter the
pump (e.g. for hydrostatic testing of pipework). Severe
internal damage may result and will void the Warranty
