Pump Typ Z
Version: 27215 -G.1
Schmalenberger GmbH + Co. KG
D-72072 Tübingen / Germany
- Unsuitable storage
If unsuitable storage conditions prevail
(e.g. high humidity) or if the pump is to be
stored for longer than 6 weeks, then the
pump housing should be filled with oil (see
chapter 3.1.3.).
- Long periods of storage
After a storage period of more than 2 years
the motor roller bearings and bearing
supports need to be re-greased or replaced
entirely.
3.1.3
Conservation
The centrifugal pumps that we deliver are
treated with a conservation material
corresponding to the storage time quoted
us by the purchaser. This conservation
must be removed before start-up. See
chapter 3.2.2 “Cleaning”.
If the pump is to be taken out of service for
a longer period of time or if the originally
envisaged storage time is going to be
considerably exceeded, then conservation
must be undertaken as protection against
corrosion.
How to do this is described in detail in
chapter 6.1 “Shutdown and Storage”.
3.2
Unpacking, Cleaning and
Assembly
3.2.1
Unpacking
For transportation purposes the pump is
fastened to a palette by bands. For
transportation over long distances it is
packed in crates or boxes .
After removing the retaining bands extract
the pump out of its packing with the help of
suitable lifting equipment. Observe the
instructions in section 3.1.1.
3.2.2
Cleaning
A number of measures are taken for
protection against transportation damage
and corrosion. Check your pump for which
measures have been taken.
1. Covering lid on the nozzles
2. Shaft protection for deliveries without
the motor
3. Protective paint on exposed parts.
These protective measures must be
removed before the pump is set up or
installed. Under no circumstances must
impurities be left inside the pump.
3.2.3
Assembly
In general the pump is delivered fully
assembled and can be installed directly.
In special cases the pump is delivered
without the drive motor. Prior to installing
the pump in the plant, install the drive motor
into the pump.
Important:
Depending on the delivery medi-
um to be used, the interior of the
pump should be cleaned of resid-
ual traces of oil. Use a cleaning
agent that will not be harmful to
the throttling section and pump
materials. Make sure that the
pump is carefully dried after
cleaning.
The cleaning agents that can be
used include spirit, Ritzol 155 or a
strongly alkaline soap solution, for
example. If a steam jet cleaner is
to be used, then let the solvent
work itself in for a time first. Then
also please take care not to dam-
age the electric motor and bear-
ings.
Important:
Before installation check that the
pump runs freely and easily.
