Condition
Proper preparation
•
Use weather-proof coverings such as flame-resistant sheeting or
tarpaulins.
•
Place coverings in a manner that maximizes drainage and air cir-
culation.
•
Tie coverings down in order to protect the pump from wind dam-
age.
Placement of pumps and component parts
•
Place the unit on skids, pallets, or shoring higher than 15 cm | 6
in. from the ground for good air circulation.
•
Sort the parts in order to permit easy access for inspection and/or
maintenance without excessive handling.
•
Pump should be stored in upright position only.
Stacking of units or component parts
•
Make sure that racks, containers, or crates bear the full weight of
units or parts in order to prevent distortion.
•
Keep identification markings readily visible.
•
Immediately replace any cover you remove for internal access.
•
Store pump/motor in upright position.
Rotation of the pump and bowl assembly
shaft
•
Rotate the shaft and bowl assembly shaft counterclockwise once
a month, at a minimum.
•
Make sure that the shaft rotates freely.
Controlled storage facilities
•
Maintain an even temperature of 6°C | 10°F or higher above the
dew point.
•
Keep the relative humidity to less than 50%.
•
Make sure that there is little or no dust.
Uncontrolled storage facilities that have un-
even temperatures, higher humidity, and/or
dusty conditions)
•
Inspect the unit periodically to make sure that all preservatives
are intact.
•
Seal all pipe threads and flanged pipe covers with tape.
When pump is not in regular operation
If a pump has been installed, but is not in regular operation for an extended period of time, such as dur-
ing a seasonal shutdown, then operate it for at least 15 minutes every two weeks.
2.5 Preservation and Storage
ITT Goulds Pump Division's normal domestic shipping and storage preparation is suitable for protecting
the pump during shipment in covered trucks. Although this is a submersible pump, storage in a clean, dry
area will help preserve the paint and prevent corrosion. Hand rotation of the shaft every thirty days is
recommended to keep the seals free and the bearings lubricated. For additional storage requirements,
reference ABB/Baldor/Reliance Submersible motor Instruction Manual.
