Signs on the pump
3.7
– It is imperative that signs affixed to the ma-
chine, e.g:
• arrow indicating the direction of rota-
tion
• symbols indicating fluid connections
be observed and kept legible.
Unauthorized alterations and pro-
3.8
duction of spare parts
Any modification may be made to the machine
only after consultation with the manufacturer.
Using spare parts, standard parts, and accesso-
ries authorized by the manufacturer is in the inter-
est of safety. Use of other parts may exempt the
manufacturer from any liability.

4 Transport and storage

WARNING
Danger of clamping, crushing and cutting
when transporting the pump!
– Protective packaging should remain on
the pump end until its installation.
– The pumps may only be transported in a
horizontal position and hooks or straps
must be attached on the motor and pump
end.
ATTENTION
– Protect the pump against damage when
transporting.
– Pump may not be placed on its pump end!
– Do not use the pump shaft for connecting
any transportation aids such as hooks or
straps.
WARNING
Risk of injury by discharging fluid!
Pumping fluid that remains inside the pump af-
ter shut down can freeze during low tempera-
ture conditions and cause damage and cracks
to pump components, such as the pump body.
As a result, after restart of the pump the
pumping fluid can then discharge through
such cracks under high pressure and cause
severe injury.
– Pumps must be drained prior to their stor-
age.
– Store pump in dry and protected areas
and protect it against penetration of for-
eign bodies.
– Always store pump above the freezing
point!

5 Installation and Connection

Mechanical installation
5.1
WARNING
Risk of clamping or crushing body parts
when installing or removing the pump ex-
ists!
– Pump must be secured with appropriate
hoist.
– During any assembly or disassembly pro-
cess the pumps must be secured against
tipping trough ropes for example at all
times.
– The pumps must be securely mounted to the
tank.
CAUTION
Risk of cutting and crushing!
If the pipe work is installed under tension and
with stress on the pump, the discharge port
can break off and the pipe work can collapse.
– Discharge piping must be installed without
tension or stress with proper support.
– Discharge piping must never be used as a
step ladder.
– Do not prop up the pressure line via the
joining socket.
– Piping, tank and pumps must be mounted
without any tension.
– Maximum tightening torque for piping con-
nections is 200 Nm!
– When installed the space around the
pump must be large enough to provide
sufficient cooling of the motor.
The inlet is at the bottom of the immersed pump
body.
The bottom of the inlet cover must be located 100
mm above the tank bottom in order to prevent un-
wanted objects, such as broken tools or indexing
plates from entering the pump suction. This dis-
tance is critical and must be maintained at all
times.
– To obtain the full flow rate it is recommended
to choose for the pipework the nominal bore
diameter of the pumps cross section for con-
nection.
– Pipe bends should be used, not pipe angles.
– The pipework must be qualified for occuring
hydraulic pressure.
