3. IDENTIFICATION
Every pump unit comes out with separate name plate. These name plates have serial number, model, flow rate and head.
It is important that the serial number should be quoted while claiming for spares or service. This will identify the unit
exactly and ensure that correct advice and parts are selected. If it is known that any update or modification to the pump
has been carried out since original supply then this information is also crucial.
4. HANDLING
Pump set shifting and lifting shall be done using forklift or crane or hoist(refer Fig Nos.
01
-a,
01
-b,
01
-c). When lifting
the fire pump set it should be very careful not to broke or bend it. Column and shaft should be supported by suitably
sized timbers while laying on floor. Strainer if fitted on the pump should be removed prior to lifting to avoid using
it as a pivot point during lifting. Only lifting lugs on the discharge head should be used whenever the entire pump is
lifted as an assembled unit.
NAFFCO centrifugal pumps will give trouble-free and satisfactory service for a long time if they are properly installed
and maintained periodically. Follow the instructions in this manual carefully. Do not run the pumps under operating
instructions which differ from those specified by us. Motors, engines, controllers, jockey pump, right angle gear drives,
drive shafts and other accessories are provided with their on individual IOM manuals. They should be consulted in
tandem with the corresponding instructions provided in this manual for all installation, operation and maintenance
activities described herein.
