Maintenance
9.1
Introduction
WARNING
Observe the general safety precautions
for installation, maintenance and repair.
Regular maintenance is necessary for the correct
operation of a pump. For maintenance of the pump,
please contact your supplier.
9.2
Lubrication
Standard motors, with a maximum power of 7.5 kW,
are provided with maintenance free sealed bearings.
Motors with lubricating nipples must be lubricated
after 2000 hours. If the pump works under extreme
conditions, such as vibrations and high temperatures,
the motors must be lubricated more often.
Use a lithium based -30 °C / 160 °C bearing lubricant
(about 15 grams).
When the pump is delivered without a motor and fitted
with an other brand or the standard motor is replaced
by an other brand than KSB, please consult the
maintenance instructions of the motor supplier.
ATTENTION
Also follow the instructions in § 7.2:
Mounting a motor on the pump.
9.3
Maintaining the pump for an
extended period of non-
operation
Turn the shaft every three months. This protects the
seals from seizure.
Protect the pump against if there is a risk of frost.
Proceed as follows:
1.
Close all pump valves.
2.
Drain each pump and/or the system.
3.
Remove all plugs from the pump.
4.
Open the shut-off and fill/air vent plug, if present.
