WARNING
Read the instruction manual completely before installing, filling, oper-
ating, or maintaining this equipment.
Obtain, read and heed the MSDS (Material Safety Data Sheet) for
the fluids being handled before attempting to fill, operate or main-
tain this equipment. Obtain instructions from the Safety Engineer
responsible for your facility before performing any work on the
pumping equipment and systems.
Proper storage while not in use and proper installation and startup
are essential for successful pump operation. Misuse or improper stor-
age, installation or operation of pumps may result in serious loss or
damage. Dean Pump Division is not responsi ble for any loss or dam-
age resulting from causes beyond its control, and is not liable for
charges for work performed or materials furnished to repair such
loss or damage.
All installation, operation, and maintenance must be done by thor-
oughly qualified personnel in strict accordance with this manual and
must comply with all local, state and Federal codes. Only Dean
authorized service parts must be used in the repair of these pumps.
RECEIVING PUMP
When the pump is received from the transportation company it
should be promptly inspected for damage and such damage noted
on the bill of lading before it is signed. Claims for shipping damage
must be filed against the carrier.
Care should be exercised in unloading and handling the pump.
STORAGE
Pumps must be properly covered and protected against mois ture,
dirt, and physical damage during storage prior to installa tion. If pro-
longed storage is anticipated, a heavy protective coating should be
applied to bearings and all exposed machined surfaces. A rust pre-
ventative must be used to protect all steel or cast iron parts.
Compression packing or mechanical seals should be removed and
stored as well as protected separately.
Pumps must also be protected from moisture, dirt, and physical dam-
age during and after installation while the system is being complet-
ed. Pumps “stored” on their foundations must be com pletely checked
for proper installation prior to start-up.
Care in storage and installation will preserve the built in quality of
each Dean Product.
