3. Transportation, conveyance, storage and installation
3.1 Precautions for transporting, moving and storing the pump
(1) Do not unpack the container unnecessarily.
If you unpack the container unnecessarily, securely pack again in such a manner that the product
body does not jump out of it and fall down during transportation, conveyance or storage
(2) When you transport, move, or store the pump, ensure that the pump is located in a well-ventilated
place with minimum exposure to dust and moisture in an environment at an ambient temperature
of -25 to 55 degrees Celsius and humidity of lower than 85%RH. The packing materials, made
mainly of corrugated cardboards, break more easily when they absorb moisture.
(3) Check the orientation of the container and then place it in the correct orientation (not upside
down).
(4) Do not stack the containers of the product more than the allowable number of units indicated on
the packing material.
The maximum allowable number of stacks for this product is four.
(5) Use extreme care so as not to give an impact or offset load to the pump during conveyance or
transportation. The container may greatly incline depending on its center of gravity.
Warning
Before transporting or moving the product, confirm the weight of each unit
by referring to the catalog, dimensional outline drawing, and other
documents, and then determine the appropriate method.
Caution
When you lift the product by hand, pay attention to its center of gravity and
weight. Do not allow a single person to lift a product heavier than 15 kg.
Otherwise, it may put strain on the body, thus leading to an injury.
3.2 Before using the pump
Upon receiving the pump, check the following points first.
If you find any problems, contact the vendor from which you purchased the product.
Caution
Before unpacking the delivered container, ensure that the container is
placed in the correct orientation (not upside down). Pay special attention to
nails especially when opening a wooden crate. Otherwise, you may get
injured.
(1) Check the nameplate to verify that the delivered product is exactly what you ordered. (Refer to 2.4.
Information indicated on the nameplate. [page 2-3].)
(2) No part of the product is damaged during transportation.
(3) All fastening parts including bolts and nuts are securely tightened.
(4) All the accessories that you ordered have been delivered.
Caution
Do not run the pump at a frequency exceeding 60 Hz. Otherwise, it may
lead to overload and burnout of the motor.
