Transport and interim storage
3.1
Shipping
The pump is enclosed in a box or lashed to a pallet ex works and is pro-
tected against dirt and moisture.
Transport inspection
On arrival, inspect the pump immediately for any transport damage.
If damage is found, the necessary procedure involving the forwarding
agent must be taken within the specified period.
Storage
Before installation, the pump must be kept dry, frost-free and pro-
tected from mechanical damage.
CAUTION! Risk of damage due to incorrect packaging!
If the pump is transported again at a later time, it must be packaged
so that it cannot be damaged during transport.
• Use the original packaging for this, or choose equivalent packag-
ing.
3.2
Attachment
WARNING! Risk of personal injury!
Improper transport can lead to personal injury.
• The pump must be transported using approved load bearing equip-
ment. This is to be attached to the pump flanges and, if necessary,
to the outer motor diameter (safeguarding against slipping
required!).
• The transport eyes on the motor are only for guiding while bearing
the load (Fig. 4).
• To lift with a crane, the pump must be supported by suitable belts,
as shown. Place loops around the pump which tighten from the
pump's own weight.
• The transport eyes on the motor are only for transporting the
motor, and are not approved for transporting the complete pump
(Fig. 5).
WARNING! Risk of injury due to the weight of the pump!
The pump itself and the parts of pump can be extremely heavy.
Falling parts pose a risk of cuts, crush injuries, bruises or impacts,
which may lead to death.
• Always use suitable lifting equipment and secure parts against fall-
ing.
• Never stand underneath a suspended load.
