SECTION III. SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING:
Unit weights are given on page 31. Failure to follow all instructions may result in serious
injury, death, or property damage.
Read all warning & caution decals on the pump.
Never use motor lifting lugs or pump casing lugs to lift entire unit.
When field hydro testing pump or system, do not exceed maximum field hydro test pressure given on
pump nameplate. Vent all air from pump and piping.
CAUTION: Pump damage will occur if rotation is reversed. Check rotation of driver with coupling
disconnected. Failure to follow these instructions could result in severe personal injury or property
damage.
WARNING: Do not operate at or near zero flow (closed shutoff valve). Explosion could result due to
large temperature rise in the fluid being pumped. Failure to follow these instructions could result in
property damage, severe personal injury, or death.
WARNING: If pump is to be used on process fluids above
49°C
pump surface temperatures could be
warm enough to cause burns. We recommend pump surfaces be insulated. Failure to follow these instruc-
tions could result in severe personal injury or death.
SECTION IV. INSTALLATION
A. RECEIVING PUMP:
Check pumps for shortages and damage immediately upon arrival. (An absolute must!) Prompt reporting
