Installation, Operation and Maintenance APP 53-92 pumps
Pumps which have a weight above 20 kilos must
be handled by using lifting eyes and slings.
When the pump is mounted together with a bell
housing, the pump can be rotated and in that
case the lifting eye cannot be used in all
positions. When lifting a pump with bell housing,
a sling can be used to lift the pump by position-
ing it on the drive end of the pump outlet.
When the pump is mounted together with an
electric motor, it must not be lifted in the lifting
eye. A pump unit with motor must be handled by
using two slings around the pump unit. One sling
must be attached to the electric motor and one
sling around the pump.
Make sure that the unit/load is balanced before
lifting. The centre of the mass varies from pump/
pump unit size to pump(pump unit).
See below examples of where to/not to attach
the lifting slings on the pump unit with motor:
Correct lifting with 2 separate slings:
Wrong lifting:
Some motors and pumps have specific lifting
eyes.
Do not use connections/nozzles for lifting!
Do not use only one sling!
Make sure that the unit/load is balanced before
lifting. The centre of the mass varies from pump/
pump unit size to pump/pump unit.
How to mount the pump and the electric motor
correctly, see appendix 1, Data sheet or appendix
2, Instruction.
Incorrect lifting can result in personal injury
and/or damage to the pump unit, see appendix
2, Instruction.
Once the lifting is done the lifting eye must
be removed from the pump.
