RECOMMENDATIONS
RECEIVING:
Immediately upon receipt of the
shipment, inspect and check with the packing list
and report to the transportation company’s local
agent of any damage or shortage. Inspect carton
and wrappings before discarding. Parts and
accessories
may
sometimes
be
wrapped
individually and packed in the carton. Should you
find the plastic wrapping removed or damaged
upon the arrival of the equipment, note the
incident on the carrier’s Bill of Lading.
STORAGE:
The plastic wrapping is not meant as
mean to protect the equipment from the
environment during storage. If the pump is
received sometime in advance of when it can be
put into use, it should be inspected, rewrapped or
re-boxed and stored in a dry location. If the pump
is to be stored for a long period of time, rotate the
pump shaft periodically to protect the bearings.
Units should not be stored where temperatures
will be below 20˚F or above 100˚F.
CONTROLS:
3 Phase, pump only, and non-115Volt
pump models require a separate approved pump
control device or panel for automatic operation.
Be sure that the electrical specification of the
control selected properly match the electrical
specifications of the pump.
SUBMERGENCE:
The pump should always be
operated in the submerged condition. The
minimum liquid level should never be less than
above the pump’s volute. The recommended
liquid level would be the height of the pump to
assist with motor cooling.
VENT HOLE:
The discharge piping of the pump
should always be drilled with a vent hole(⅛”Ø) at
a height of 6” above the pump discharge to
prevent air locking.
