Transport, Storage and Disposal Transport, Storage and Disposal Transport Weight specifications (→ dimensional drawing, delivery note). 4.1.1 Unpacking and inspection on delivery 1. Unpack the pump/aggregate on delivery and inspect it for damage during trans- port. 2. Report any damage during transport to the manufacturer immediately. 3.
Transport, Storage and Disposal 4.1.2 Lifting Death or crushing of limbs may be caused by falling loads! Use lifting gear appropriate for the total weight to be transported. Fasten the lifting gear as illustrated below. DANGER Do not stand under suspended loads. Fig.
Transport, Storage and Disposal Treatment for storage Not necessary for stainless materials. The preservation applied at the plant lasts for 12 months. CAUTION Material damage may occur due to inappropriate treatment for storage! Ensure the pump is treated for storage properly, both inside and outside. 1.
Installation and connection Installation and connection CAUTION Material damage can be caused by dirt! Do not remove any covers, transport and sealing covers until immediately before connecting the pipes to the pump. Preparing the setup 5.1.1 Checking the ambient conditions 1.
Installation and connection Planning the piping 5.2.1 Specifying supports and flange connections CAUTION Material damage may occur due to excessive forces and torques exerted by the piping on the pump! Do not exceed the permissible values (→ maximum support load, torque table). 1.
Installation and connection 5.2.5 Optimizing cross-section and direction changes 1. Avoid bending radii of less than 1.5 times the nominal pipe diameter. 2. Avoid abrupt changes of cross-section along the piping. 3. Lay the supply pipe so that it runs constantly downwards and not horizontally to the separator.
Installation and connection Automatic venting 1. Install a non-return valve between the outlet flange and the gate valve to ensure the medium does not flow back when the pump is switched off. 2. Provide a bypass pipe to enable venting: –...
Installation and connection Allow measurements of the operating conditions 1. Provide manometers for pressure measurements in the supply pipes and vessel outlets. 2. Provide for pump-side temperature measurements. Connecting the pipes 5.3.1 Keeping the piping clean CAUTION Material damage may occur due to impurities in the pump! Ensure no impurities can enter the pump: –...
Installation and connection Electrical connection Risk of death due to electric shock! Have all electrical work carried out by qualified electricians only. DANGER 5.4.1 Providing a motor protection switch Provide a motor protection switch in accordance with VDE 0660 with the follow- ing specifications: –...
Operation Operation Putting the pump into service for the first time 6.1.1 Identifying the pump type Identify the pump type (→ technical specification). 6.1.2 Checking the shutdown period After a shutdown period of > 2 years: (→ Table 5 Measures after longer storage/ shutdown periods, Page 18).
Operation 6.1.5 Switching on ✔ Pump set up and connected properly ✔ All connections stress-free and sealed ✔ All safety equipment installed and tested for functionality ✔ Pump prepared, filled and bled properly Risk of injury due to running pump! Do not touch the running pump.
Operation Operating 6.2.1 Switching on ✔ Pump initially put into service properly ✔ Pump prepared, filled and bled properly Risk of injury due to running pump! Do not touch the running pump. Do not carry out any work on the running pump. DANGER Risk of injury and poisoning due to pumped liquid spraying out! Use personal protective equipment when carrying out any work on the pump.
Operation Shutting down the pump Risk of injury and poisoning due to hazardous pumped liquids! Safely collect any leaking pumped liquid and dispose of it in accordance with environmental rules and requirements. WARNING Take the following measures whenever the pump is shut down: Pump is Measure ...shut down for a...
Operation Operating the stand-by pump 1. Preparing the stand-by pump: – Putting the pump into service for the first time (→ 6.1 Putting the pump into service for the first time, Page 27). – Fill and bleed the stand-by pump. 2.
Maintenance Maintenance Trained service technicians are available for fitting and repair work. Present a pumped medium certificate (DIN safety data sheet or safety certificate) when requesting service. Inspections The inspection intervals depend on the operational strain on the pump. Risk of injury due to running pump! Do not touch the running pump.
Maintenance Repairs Risk of injury due to running pump! Do not touch the running pump. Do not carry out any work on the running pump. DANGER Isolate the motor from its supply voltage and secure it against being switched back on again when carrying out any fitting or maintenance work. Risk of death due to electric shock! Have all electrical work carried out by qualified electricians only.
Maintenance When dismounting, observe the following: – Mark the precise orientation and position of all components before dis- mounting them. – Dismount components concentrically without canting. Dismount the pump and motor part: For the designations and positions of the components (→ sectional drawing). Mark the position of the suction casing 106, stage casing 108 and pump housing 101.
Maintenance 7.2.2 Returning the pump to the manufacturer ✔ Pump unpressurized ✔ Pump completely empty ✔ Secure motor against being switched on again ✔ Pump de-iced ✔ Manometer lines, manometer and holdings dismounted 1.
