4.4. PIPES Before starting up the pump, make sure that the suction and discharge valves of the pump are open. Before closing the suction and discharge valves, make sure that the pump is switched-off and has stopped. When hot fluids are being pumped, pay attention to thermal dilation. In this case, use expansion washers and pay special attention to avoid leaving the equipment electrically insulated (electrical equipotentiality) from the rest of the assembly.
Protection against motor overload, suitable for the motor’s nominal power, must also be installed. The electrical equipment, terminals and components of the control systems may still contain electric current when switched off. Contact may place the operator or installation in danger or cause irreparable damage to the equipment. The supplier's instructions for the safe opening of the motor should be followed at all times.
