Transport, storage and disposal Transport, storage and disposal Transport Weight specifications (→ order data sheet). 4.1.1 Unpacking and inspection on delivery 1. Unpack the pump/aggregate on delivery and inspect it for transport damage. 2. Report any transport damage to the manufacturer immedi- ately.
Transport, storage and disposal Storage Disposal Plastic parts can be contaminated by poisonous or radioac- NOTE tive pumped liquids to such an extent that cleaning will be insufficient. Material damage due to inappropriate storage! Treat and store the pump properly. For a longer storage time, dismantle the elastomer stator WARNING and store it in dark film at -10 to 25 °C.
Setup and connection Setup and connection For pumps in explosion-hazard areas (→ ATEX additional 5.1.4 Preparing the foundation and surface instructions). Setup options: – With concrete foundation – With steel foundation frame NOTE Make sure the foundation and surface meet the following Material damage due to distortion or passage of electrical conditions: current in the bearing!

WARNING Risk of injury and poisoning due to hazardous pumped 1. Make sure the nominal suction pipe diameter is ≥ as pos- liquids! sible to the nominal suction branch diameter.
Setup and connection Connecting the pipes 5.5.5 Inspection for stress-free pipe connections Piping installed and cooled down 5.5.1 Keeping the piping clean NOTE NOTE Material damage due to impurities in the pump! Material damage due to distorted pump casing Make sure no impurities or foreign particles enter the pump. Ensure that all pipes are stress relieved when connected to the pump.
Setup and connection Aligning the coupling precisely 3. Measure the gap with a feeler gauge (2): – Permissible gap (→ setup drawing) Applies to base plate version with coupling – Use the feeler gauge to measure the gap (A) between the coupling halves.
Setup and connection Aligning the motor Applies to base plate version with coupling Alignment options: – With sets of shims – With adjusting screws 1. Align the motor so that the coupling halves are exactly in line and fit shims if necessary. 2.
