5.3. TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
According to the model, the agitators are too heavy to be stored or installed manually. Use an
appropriate mode of transport. Do not handle the agitator by the shaft as this may become
deformed.
Take all possible precautions when lifting the agitator. Always use properly attached slings when
moving the agitator with a crane or other lifting device.
If the agitator is not to be installed immediately, it must be stored in an appropriate place. The shaft must be
stored in a horizontal position and placed on wooden supports or for a similar material. In this position, the shaft
will not becoming deformed but it must not be subject to any type of load.
5.4. LOCATION
Place the agitator in such a way as to facilitate inspections and checks. Leave enough room around the agitator
for service, disassembly and maintenance operations. It is very important to be able to access the electric
connection device of the agitator, even when in operation.
For a good agitation process, it may be necessary to place a deflector in the tank. Ask our Technical
Department for information on any particular application. If required, the approximate dimensions for the
deflector for different tank diameter are shown in the next figures and the next table:
