2.6 Safety notes concerning maintenance, inspection, and assembly works
The operator has to make sure that all maintenance, inspection, and assembly works are carried out
by authorised, skilled, and qualified personnel which are adequately informed by having thoroughly
studied the operation manual.
Generally, works on the machine are only to be carried out when the machine is turned off. The
procedure of switching off the machine, which is described in the operation manual, has to be
observed at all costs.
Pumps or pump units which convey media that are hazardous to health have to be decontaminated.
Immediately after completion of the works, all safety and protection devices have to be reattached or
reactivated.
Before restart, the points listed in the chapter commissioning have to be taken into consideration.
2.7 Unauthorised modification of the machine and fabrication of spare parts
Modifications of the machine are permitted only after having consulted the manufacturer. Original
spare parts and accessories authorised by the manufacturer ensure the safety. The use of other parts
can lead to the removal of liability for the resulting damages.
2.8 Unauthorised modes of operation
The operational reliability is only guaranteed, if the machine is used as intended according to chapter
1
– General. The limit values stated in the data sheet must not be exceeded!
3. Transport and temporary storage
3.1 Transport
The prefabricated pump stations of the type series FPS-K (A) are not to be thrown or dropped.
Furthermore, they should be transported in upright position.
3.2 Temporary storage/conservation
For temporary storage and conservation, it suffices if the plant is stored in a cool, dark, dry, and frost-
protected place. The plant should be stored in upright position.
4. Description
4.1 General
The pump station is completely assembled, so that only the pump has to be put into place and the
connections (inlet, pressure pipe, ventilation line, level control system and power supply) have to be
established.
