1.0 Introduction
1.1 General
Johnson magnetic drive centrifugal pumps type MDR are manufactured by SPX Process

This instruction manual contains necessary information on the magnetic drive
centrifugal pumps and must be read carefully before installation, service and maintenance.
The manual must be kept easily accessible to the operator.
Important!
The pump must not be used for other purposes than recommended and quoted for
without consulting SPX Process Equipment’s distributor.
Liquids not suitable for the pump can cause damages to the pump unit and imply
risk of personal injury.
1.2 Reception, handling and storage
1.2.1
Reception
Remove all packing materials immediately after reception. Check the consignment for
damage immediately on arrival and make sure that the name plate/type designation is in
accordance with the packing slip and your order.
In case of damage and/or missing parts, a report should be drawn up and presented to the
carrier at once. Notify your local distributor.
On the pump there is a plate with
article number and fabrication num-
ber. Always state these numbers and
the pump type when contacting your
local distributor.
1.2.2
Handling
Check the weight of the pump unit (see section 7.0). All parts weighing more than 20
kg must be lifted using lifting slings or suitable lifting devices, e.g. overhead crane or an
industrial truck.
Always use two lifting slings. Make sure that they
are secured in such a way as to prevent them from
slipping and that the pump unit is hanging straight.
Never lift the pump unit with only one fastening
point. Incorrect lifts can cause personal injury
and/or damage to the product.
