DECOMMISSIONING/DISPOSAL English
•
Avoid air entry in the inlet, a deflector plate
should be fitted if necessary
• Minimum water submersion
• Switching points for level control device or
dry-running protection
• Smooth running
• All slide valves must be open.
7. Decommissioning/disposal
• All work must be carried out with the greatest
care.
• Proper protective clothing is to be worn.
• When carrying out work in basins and/or tanks,
the respective local protection measures must be
observed. A second person must be present for
safety reasons.
• Only lifting equipment that is in a technically
perfect condition and load-carrying equipment
that has been officially approved may be used for
lowering and raising the pump.
RISK
of fatal injury due to malfunctions!
Lifting gear and equipment must be in
perfect technical condition. Work may only
commence if the lifting equipment has been
checked and found to be in perfect working
order. If it is not inspected, fatal injuries may
result.
7.1. Temporary decommissioning
For this type of deactivation, the pump remains
installed and is not cut off from the electricity
supply. In the event of temporary decommission-
ing the pump must remain completely immersed
so that it is protected from frost and ice. Ensure
that the temperature of the fluid and in the oper
-
ating space does not fall below +3 °C.
This ensures that the pump is always ready for
operation. For extended downtime, a regular
(monthly to quarterly) 5 minute function test
should be carried out.
CAUTION!
Only perform function runs under the proper
operating and usage conditions. Never run
the machine dry! This can result in irreparable
damage!
7.2. Decommissioning for maintenance work or
storage
The system must be switched off and the pump
must be disconnected from the mains by an
electrician and secured against being switched
on again without permission. Pumps with plugs
must be unplugged (do not pull the cable!). Work
on removal, maintenance and storage can then
commence.
BEWARE of poisonous substances!
Pumps that pump liquids hazardous to health
must always be decontaminated before un-
dertaking any other work. Otherwise, there
is a risk of fatal injury! Wear the necessary
physical protection equipment!
BEWARE of burns!
The housing parts can heat up to well above
40 °C. There is a risk of burns! After switch
-
ing it off, let the pump cool down to ambient
temperature.
7.3. Removal
7.3.1. Portable wet well installation
Pumps in portable wet well installation can be
lifted out of the pit once they have been discon-
nected from the mains and the pressure pipe has
been drained. It may be necessary to dismantle
the hose first. It may be necessary to use a suita
-
ble lifting device.
7.3.2. Stationary wet well installation
Pumps in stationary wet well installations with
a suspension unit are raised out of the pump
chamber using the appropriate lifting equipment.
During lifting, always hold the power supply cable
slightly taut to prevent it being damaged.
The operating space does not have to be emptied
especially for this purpose. All pressure- and suc-
tion-side slide valves must be closed to prevent
the operating space overflowing or the discharge
pipe being emptied.
7.4. Return delivery/storage
For shipping, the parts must be packed in tear-
proof plastic bags of sufficient size in such a
manner that they are tightly sealed and leak-
proof.
For return delivery and storage please also refer
to the “Transport and storage” section!
