Unless explicitly ordered differently, the coupling is supplied with preservation and may be stored in a dry and
roofed place for a period of up to 3 months.
In case of a longer storage period please consult with KTR.
Proper storage conditions increase the service life of O-rings. For the storage of O-rings basically DIN 7716
(standards for storage, maintenance and cleaning of rubber products) or ISO 2230 (rubber products - standards
for storage) applies.
The physical characteristics and period of operation may be subject to negative influences like, as an example,
light, heat, moisture, oxygen, ozone, etc.
In general the optimum storage condition is said to be welded in polyethylene bags with temperatures between
+5 °C to +20 °C.
!
The O-rings (component 8) must not be stored being mounted to the hubs (component 1).
The storage space should be dry and free from dust. The O-rings (component 8) must not be
stored together with chemicals, solvents, fuels, acids, etc.
!
In order to avoid any injuries and any kind of damage always make use of proper transport
and lifting equipment.
The couplings are packed differently each depending on size, number and kind of transport. Unless otherwise
contractually agreed, packaging will follow the in-house packaging specifications of KTR.
Observe the manufacturer’s instructions regarding the use of solvents.
STOP
Driving components falling down may cause injury to persons or damage on the machine.
Secure the driving components with assembly or disassembly.
