Storage and disposal
6.1
Storage
Use the following procedure to store the pump.
1. Place protective covers over the main inlet, side inlet, outlet, interstage (Hi variants only) and vent ports.
2. Place the pump in its packing materials. For fastest pump-down when the pump is put back into service, seal the
pump inside a plastic bag together with a suitable desiccant.
3. Store the pump in cool, dry conditions until required for use. When required, prepare and install the pump as
described in
.
4. Keep the pump upright at all times to prevent the drainage of oil from the bearing reservoir.
5. Avoid long-term storage if possible. When long-term storage is necessary, the pump should be set up and run for
at least eight hours every six months.
6.2
Disposal
Dispose of the EXT Split Flow Pump and any components and accessories safely in accordance with all local and
national safety and environmental requirements.
Take particular care with components and waste oil which have been contaminated with dangerous process
substances.
Take appropriate action to avoid inhalation of any particulates which may be present in the pump. Do not incinerate
the pump. The pump contains phenolic and fluorosilicone materials which can decompose to very dangerous
substances when heated to high temperatures.
WARNING
In the unlikely event of a failure of the pump rotor, dust can be generated from the carbon fibre
reinforced components.
In this event, use appropriate Personal Protective Equipment when handling and disposing of the
pump, and ensure that all pump inlets and outlets are capped off before disposal.
