should be secured against slipping along with
protective cover to prevent damage to the
product, paint and/or injury to personnel.
When lifting the pump in combination with the
pump stool and motor stool, the lifting tackle
should be attached to the lifting lugs
provided on the base plate side member. To
lift the pump the lifting slings should pass
beneath the pump body at suction and
delivery flanges (see lifting diagrams - see also
general safety Information, chapter 2). These
must have sufficient load bearing capacity to
ensure that the product can be transported
safely.(Refer Figure 1)
3.2 Delivery
On arrival, the delivered items must be
inspected for damage and a check made that
all parts are present. If any parts are damaged
or missing, the transport company or the
manufacturer must be informed on the day of
delivery. Any claim made at a later date will be
deemed invalid. Damage to parts must be
noted on the delivery or freight
documentation.
3.3 Storage
3.3.1 Short-term storage (less than 3 month)
The equipments as shipped have adequate
protection for short-term storage in a covered,
dry and ventilated location at the job site prior
to installation.
If the pump is not installed immediately after
delivery, it must be stored in a dry and clean
place with sufficient ventilation, no vibration,
no freezing and the temperature variations
must be smooth. Bearings and couplings must
be protected against sand, dust and foreign
bodies. To avoid corrosion and jamming, please
lubricate the pump and make turn the
rotating elements for several turns at least
once a week. Pre-packed desiccants may be
used to absorb moisture & keep the pump
dry. It must be removed before putting the
pump on operation.
3.3.2 Long-term storage (more than 3 month)
If the equipment will be subject to extended
storage condition prior to installation, then
the manufacturer must be informed about
storage duration, so that special protection
can be recommended.
Place the SCPV pumps horizontally on firm
foundation and secure it against falling.
The machine must be protected from direct
sunlight, heat, dust, and frost.
The rotors or propellers must be turned at
regular intervals. This prevents the bearing
from locking and the film of lubricant on the
mechanical shaft seal is renewed.
For mechanical seal, we recommend: relative
air humidity below 65%, temperature
between 15°C and 25°C. Direct exposure of
the mechanical seal to heat (sun, heating) as
well as to ozone, present or produced by
ultraviolet light (halogen or fluorescent
lamps), must be avoided because of the risk
of embrittlement of elastomeric materials.
3.4 Pump returning back to the supplier
Products, which are delivered back to the plant,
must be clean and correctly packaged. In this
context, clean means that impurities have been
removed and decontaminated if it has been
used with materials, which are hazardous to
health.
The packaging must protect the product
against damage.
CAUTIO N! Guarantee not applicable!
Products, which are not suitably packaged for
delivery back, are no longer covered by guaran-
tee!
4 I n t e n d e d use
The pump supplied is intended for specific fluid.
Refer pump data sheet and order confirmation.
For any change in pumped fluid refer Wilo
beforehand. Vertical Split Case pumps are used in
water supply, water-circulating systems, injection
water, spray pond, air-conditioning, water
treatment, Sprinkler & drip irrigation, fire fighting,
juices etc. If the operating conditions are different
of the specifications given in the order, (i.e. type
of liquid, temperature or duty point), the end user
must ask a written agreement to Wilo on the new
operating conditions before starting the pump.
