2.10 Warranty
Seller warrants that the equipment or services supplied will be
free from defects in material, and workmanship for a period of
24
months from the date of initial operation of the equipment, or
30
months from the date of shipment, whichever shall first
occur. In the case of spare or replacement parts manufactured
by Seller, the warranty period shall be for a period of six months
from shipment. Repairs shall be warranted for
24
months or, if
the repair is performed under this warranty, for the remainder of
the original warranty period, whichever is less. Buyer shall report
any claimed defect in writing to Seller immediately upon
discovery and in any event, within the warranty period. Seller
shall, at its sole option, repair the equipment or furnish
replacement equipment or parts thereof, at the original delivery
point. Seller shall not be liable for costs of removal,
reinstallation, or gaining access. If Buyer or others repair,
replace, or adjust equipment or parts without Seller's prior
written approval, Seller is relieved of any further obligation to
Buyer under this section with respect to such equipment or
parts. The repair or replacement of the equipment or spare or
replacement parts by Seller under this section shall constitute
Seller's sole obligation and Buyer's sole and exclusive remedy
for all claims of defects. SELLER MAKES NO OTHER
WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND WITH
RESPECT TO THE EQUIPMENT OR SERVICES OTHER THAN
AS SPECIFIED IN THIS SECTION 10. ALL OTHER
WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, ARE HEREBY DISCLAIMED. For purposes of this
Section, the equipment warranted shall not include equipment,
parts, and work not manufactured or performed by Seller. With
respect to such equipment, parts, or work, Seller's only obligation
shall be to assign to Buyer any warranty provided to Seller by the
manufacturer or supplier providing such equipment, parts or
work. No equipment furnished by Seller shall be deemed to be
defective by reason of normal wear and tear, failure to resist
erosive or corrosive action of any fluid or gas, Buyer's failure to
properly store, install, operate or maintain the equipment in
accordance with good industry practices or specific
recommendations of Seller, or Buyer's failure to provide complete
and accurate information to Seller concerning the operational
application of the equipment.
2.11 Technical documents
Technical documents furnished by Seller to Buyer, such as
drawings, descriptions, designs and the like, shall be deemed
provided to Buyer on a confidential basis, shall remain Seller's
exclusive property, shall not be provided in any way to third
parties, and shall only be used by Buyer for purposes of
installation, operation and maintenance. Technical documents
submitted in connection with a Quotation that does not result in a
Purchase Order shall be returned to Seller upon request.
2.12 Limitation of liability
Seller shall in no event be liable for any consequential, incidental,
indirect, special or punitive damages arising out of the Contract,
or out of any breach of any of its obligations hereunder, or out of
any defect in, or failure of, or malfunction of the equipment,
including but not limited to, claims based upon loss of use, lost
profits or revenue, interest, lost goodwill, work stoppage,
impairment of other equipment, environmental damage, nuclear
incident, loss by reason of shutdown or nonoperation, increased
expenses of operation, cost of purchase of replacement power or
claims of Buyer or customers of Buyer for service interruption
whether or not such loss or damage is based on contract, tort
(including negligence and strict liability) or otherwise. Seller's
maximum liability under this Contract shall not exceed the
Purchase Order amount of the equipment or portion thereof upon
which such liability is based. All such liability shall terminate upon
the expiration of the warranty period, if not sooner terminated.

jurisdiction.
3. Installation - Mechanical
Read these instructions thoroughly before installing and
operating your PACO Type L Centrifugal Pump. Successful
operation depends on careful attention to the procedures
described in Sections 1, 2, 3 and 4 of this manual. Keep this
instruction manual handy for future use.
3.1 Pump identification
All PACO Pumps are identified by Catalog and Serial Numbers.
These numbers are stamped on the pump nameplate (Fig. 1)
affixed to each pump volute casing, and should be referred to in
all correspondence with the Company.
Fig. 1
Nameplate
3.2 Receiving
• Check pumping unit for shortage and damage immediately
upon arrival. Pump accessories when required are packaged
in a separate container and shipped with the unit.
• If equipment is damaged in transit, promptly report this to the
carrier's agent. Make complete notations on the freight bill to
speed satisfactory adjustment by the carrier.
• Unload and handle the unit with a sling. Do not lift unit by eye
bolts on the motor!
3.3 Temporary storage
• If pump is not to be installed and operated soon after arrival,
store it in a clean, dry area of moderate ambient temperature.
• Rotate the shaft by hand periodically to coat bearing with
lubricant to retard oxidation and corrosion.
• Follow motor manufacturer's storage recommendations where
applicable.
3.4 Location
• Locate the pump as close to the suction supply as possible.
Use the shortest and most direct suction piping practical.
Refer to
3.9 Suction (inlet) piping
.
• Locate the pump below system level wherever possible. This
will facilitate priming, assure a steady liquid flow, and provide
a positive suction head.
• Make sure sufficient NPSH (Net Positive Suction Head) is
provided at the suction end by considering the pump's location
in relation to the entire system. Available NPSH must always
equal or exceed required NPSH specified on the pump
performance curve.
• Always allow sufficient accessibility for maintenance and
inspection. Provide a clear space with ample head room for
use of a hoist strong enough to lift the unit.
• Make sure a suitable power source is available for the pump
motor. Electrical characteristics should match those specified
on the motor data plate, within the limits covered in
4. Installation-electrical
and
5. Operation
.
• Avoid pump exposure to sub-zero temperatures to prevent
pump liquid from freezing. If freezing conditions exist during
shutdown periods, see Sections
5.6 Pump shutdown
and
5.7 Short duration shutdown
for specific recommendations.
3.5 Horizontal pump foundation
Horizontal pumps should be permanently installed on a firm,
concrete foundation mounting pad of sufficient size to dampen
any vibration and prevent any deflection or misalignment. The
pad may float on springs or be a raised part of the equipment
room floor. The foundation should be poured without interruption
to 3/4 to 1 - 1/2 inches below the final pump elevation. The top
surface should be well scored or grooved before the concrete
sets to provide a suitable bonding surface for the grout. Anchor
bolts should be set in pipe sleeves for positioning allowance, as
shown in Fig. 2. Allow enough bolt length for grout, lower base
plate flange, nuts and washers. Allow the foundation to cure
several days before proceeding with pump installation.
Warning
Prior to installation, read these installation and
operating instructions. Installation and operation
must comply with local regulations and accepted
codes of good practice.
Warning
The use of this product requires experience with
and knowledge of the product. Persons with
reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilities must not use this product, unless
they are under supervision or have been
instructed in the use of the product by a person
responsible for their safety. Children must not
use or play with this product.
