Transportation & Packing
All MultiRheo Filter MRF are tested at the factory for leaks and proper functioning. They are
then carefully packed for shipment.
The fluid connections are all sealed with plugs to prevent the intrusion of contaminants
during transport. Upon receipt of the unit, check it for any damage during transportation.
The packing/packaging material should be re-used/re-cycled as appropriate for your area.
3 Storage
3.1 Storage
conditions
Storage may not be done unless the MRF has been completely drained, cleaned and flushed
and the filter elements have been removed. Check the external corrosion protection (paint
coat) for damage, apply a new coat or touch up the existing one as needed. The cleaned
inside of the housing body has to be protected using a suitable anti-corrosion agent like
ANTICORIT 3 (manufacturer: Fuchs-DEA).
All sealing surfaces, e.g. of the flanges, have to be greased before reassembling the MRF.
Storage temperature: +5°C to +30°C Humidity: up to 50% relative humidity
3.2 Duration
of
Storage
Storage under suitable conditions may be done for a maximum of 6 months. Generally
speaking, recommissioning during this period is possible. If the MRF is to be put into storage
for a longer period of time, it is to be sealed in a wrapping using a suitable desiccant. Check
the wrapping regularly for damage and, if necessary, replace it. Replace the desiccant in a
timely manner as needed. Before recommissioning the MRF, make sure that there is no
corrosion and replace all seals and gaskets.
3.3
Space Requirements / Safe Load
The MRF should be stored in an upright position. The load-bearing capacity of the floor has
to amount to a minimum of 2000 kg/m². In cases of doubt, check the structural strength of the
foundation. Access has to be enabled from all sides for maintenance work.
