6.- STORAGE
The pumps should be stored in well-ventilated zones free of damp.
For short storage periods the machined parts should be protected with an oil or anti-corrosion product.
If the pump is to be left for longer periods in the store, precautions should be taken to prevent the pump
from corroding by using an anti-corrosion product, also proceeding to cover up the suction and delivery
flanges. Turn the shaft by hand every 15 days to prevent any possible seizing up.
TAKE NOTE
Make sure that the diesel engine or electric motor is not exposed to atmospheric
agents not compatible with its degree of protection which might cause damage to this.
Before storing a pump, which has recently been installed, proceed to clean and then air-dry it (do not
used hydro carbide-based products).
7.- MANIPULATION
For handling the equipment appropriate lifting and transport systems complying with
safety norms should be used.
Raise and transport the pump (without packaging) as indicated in (Fig. 1)
The electric motor should be handled using the securing point(s) provided for this purpose consisting on a
ring located at the top of the casing (for motors with feet).
For diesel engines see the specific manual supplied with them.
To handle the motor/pump (Fig. 2) set use a sling going under the bed so as to ensure stability during
lifting and displacement. Under no circumstances use the ring located over the motor or pump.
