Gear Pump - WPP, WPL Series TRANSPORT, HANDLING, PACKAGING, STORAGE Pompe Cucchi sells “ex works”. Consequently, transport from the manufacturing shop to the named place of destination is carried out by the Customer under his own responsibility. For each transport a suitable standard packaging is ensured or established based on Customer requirements who, in any case, must give information about the type of shipment to be per- formed (by land, air, “overseas“).
The pump is usually supplied equipped with mechanical seal. If the Customer requires a particular type of seal, Pompe Cucchi S.r.l. installs the desired seal after verifying if its di- mensions are compatible with those of the pump. In case the Customer requires only the seal mark, the Company leaves the Manufacturer to select the type of seal, by giving infor- mation about the pumped liquid.
