Transport
•
All Hypro pumps are capable of being transported by air, sea, rail or motor vehicle. When the pump is shipped ensure
that the pump is moved in accordance with local and national laws, and is properly secured to prevent unwanted
movement which could cause damage to person or property. Prior to shipping all fluids should be removed from the
pump.
Storage
•
New pumps in their boxes can be stored several years as long as the port plugs are not removed. Once the plugs
have been removed if the pump is not to be used for an extended period of time (i.e. more than 30 days) the pump
must be winterized as described in the Cleaning section of this manual.

Before attempting to install your Hypro centrifugal pump it is imperative to read and understand the following:
•
Installation of a Hypro pump should only be performed by a technician having the knowledge and skills necessary
to install the pump without the risk property damage or injury.
•
When handling hypro pumps one should wear steel toed shoes and protective gloves in order to protect the feet
in the event the pump is dropped and protect the hands from any sharp surfaces on the pump or chemicals.
•
Pumping systems must be installed in accordance with Hypro installation instructions. Failure to do so will void
your warranty and could cause damage to property, serious personal injury, or death
•
Electrical power cables and pump hoses must be routed where there is no risk of personnel tripping, walking into,
or falling because they have been routed in areas where personnel are expected to move. Electrical power cables
and pump hoses should be routed according to local and national standards.
•
It is the installer's responsibility to ensure that AC electric-drive motors, Hypro pumps, and metalwork of support
structures are bonded to earth (ground), per local and national standards.
•
It is the installer's responsibility to conduct earth continuity tests between AC electric-drive motors, Hypro pumps,
and metalwork of support structures and earth according to EN60204-1:2006/A1:2009, or its superseding standard, to
confirm that all components that need to be connected to earth are satisfactorily bonded.
•
It is the installer's responsibility to conduct electrical tests in accordance with EN60204-1:2006/A1:2009, or its
superseding standard, on finished pump assemblies.
•
All connections to electrical components must be number, symbol, or color coded generally as recommended by
EN60204-1:2006/A1:2009, or its superseding standard.
•
For pumps with gas engines, the exhaust must be directed away from operators and anyone standing nearby to
ensure that exhaust fumes do not enter their breathing zone.
