1. INSTALLATION
1.1. Operation principle
In order to operate the pump, the casing has to be filled with liquid before start-up. The
liquid enters the pump casing axially to the shaft. The rotating impeller generates a
centrifugal force accelerating the liquid through the pump casing and into the discharge
piping.
1.2. Receiving inspection
Although precaution is taken by us when packing and shipping, we urge you to carefully
check the shipment on receipt. Make sure that all parts and accessories listed on the packing
list are accounted for. Immediately report any damage or shortage to the transport company
and to us.
1.3. Lifting and transportation
Before handling the pump check the weight of the pump (see chapter 6. Data). Refer to Your
local standards on how to handle the pump. If the weight is excessive to transport by hand
it must be lifted using slings and a suitable lifting device e.g. a crane or forklift.
Always use at least two slings and make sure they are secured in such a way to prevent the
pump from slipping and that the pump unit is hanging straight.
Never lift the pump with only one sling. Incorrect lifting can cause serious injury and/or
damage to the pump.
Never lift the pump under pressure.
Be careful that nobody passes under the pump when lifted.
Never try to lift the pump by the connections or hoses attached to the pump.
