4.2 IMPORTANT PROTECTIONS AND CAUTIONS
All products are designed with guards over moving
parts. Operating the pump without the guards
in place can cause physical injury.
The pump is supplied with a grounding conductor
or a grounding type plug. To reduce the risk of
electric shock, be certain that it is connected only
to a properly grounded electrical supply.
Do not connect pump to a power supply until
permanently grounded.
4.3 ADDITIONAL RISKS INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:
a) Possible contact with the motor cooling fan by inserting any
objects (e.g. screwdrivers, sticks and similar) through the fan
cover holes.
b) Possible restart without warning due to automatic re-arming
of the motor protection device, if tripped due to motor overheating.
5. HANDLING AND STORAGE
5.1 HANDLING
Crushing hazard: The pump and its components
are HEAVY and must be handled carefully. Use
proper lifting equipment and work apparel. When
lifting the pump/motor, use appropriate crane (or
hoist). Check position and tightness of lift system
so that weight of the pump is NOT unbalanced.
Failure to observe this precaution can result in
serious accidents.
The following must be done when moving or dismantling the
motor pump:
a) disconnect the electric supply;
b) remove the suction and discharge pipes (where present) if too
long or bulky;
c) if present, remove any screws that secure the pump to its
supporting surface;
d) lift the pump using equipment suitable to the pump weight
and dimensions (refer to the technical section specifications).
The product is packed horizontally in a cardboard box, with
handles on request. Larger models may be packed on a
wooden pallet.
Handling a complete pump with motor
To move the pump from its horizontal packed position, simply
attach a suitable strap securely to the pump and motor and lift
slowly using a hoist while keeping the load balanced.
EVMU and EVMSU pumps with motor installed
WARNING!
tend to be top heavy. Care should be taken in
handling and transporting to prevent damage or
injury caused by the pump falling over.
Handling a bare pump:
Follow the same procedure as for a complete pump with motor.
In this case, the strap must be attached to the motor bracket.
Keep packing materials inside the motor bracket in place while
moving the bare pump.
5.2 STORAGE
a) The product must be stored in a covered and dry place, far
away from heat sources and protected against dust, dirt,
and vibration.
b) Protect the product against damp conditions, heat sources
and mechanical damage.
c) Do not place heavy objects on the packaging.
d) The product must be stored at an ambient temperature
between +5°C and +40°C (41°F – 104°F) with a relative
humidity of 60%.

6. PRODUCT OVERVIEW
6.1. DESCRIPTION
EBARA's EVM(S)U pumps are vertical multi-stage multi-pur-
pose, non-self-priming pumps. EVM(S)U pumps are designed
for coupling to standard electric motors to provide pumping of
water at various flow, pressure and temperature conditions in a
wide range of appplications.
The abbreviations EVMSU and EVMU identify a wide range of
vertical multi-stage pumps with in-line ports, sized for nine nominal
flow rates (EVMSU 1, 3, 5, 10, 15 and 20 and EVMU 32, 45, 64
m3/h), with varying number of stages available either as a
complete pump with motor or bare pump.
If you have purchased a bare pump, please make sure your
motor is suited to coupling with the pump.
The model designation can be found in section 7.1.
6.2 APPLICATIONS
The pump is designed for:
- commercial and industrial water distribution systems
- washing systems
- water treatment
- fire systems
- cooling systems
- pressurisation systems
- irrigation systems
