WARNING
Placing the pump set on an unsecured and uneven mounting surface
Personal injury and damage to property!
▷
Always place the pump set on a solid and level surface with the pump set in
vertical position and the motor on top.
▷
Only place the pump set on a surface of sufficient load-carrying capacity.
▷
Use appropriate means to secure the pump set against overturning or tipping
over.
▷
Refer to the weights given in the data sheet/name plate.
Any resonances at the usual excitation frequencies (1x and 2x rotational frequency,
rotational noise) must be prevented both in the foundation and in the connected
piping, as such frequencies may cause extreme vibrations.
1. Check the structural requirements.
All structural work required must have been prepared in accordance with the
dimensions stated in the outline drawing/general arrangement drawing.
5.2.3 Checking the lubricant level
The lubricant reservoirs are filled with an environmentally-friendly, non-toxic
lubricant at the factory.
