Example: Lifting of suction barrel
2.3.5 Lifting of fully assembled pumps
If the pump is fully assembled, it has to be adequately
strapped and supported at least two places before it
can be lifted from the shipping crate and moved to
the installation site. See details shown. Same rules
are applicable when the pump is pulled out from the
sump and moved to another location.
Examples shown here are for
illustration only. See section 2.3 1~2.3.4 for specific
lifting instructions based on design variations. The
pumps vary in weight, length and physical
appearances from the types shown here. Therefore,
before lifting is attempted, exercise caution to prevent
any injuries or loss of life.
2.4 Storage
Store the pump in a clean, dry location
away from vibration. Leave piping connection covers
in place to keep dirt and other foreign material out of
pump casing. Turn the pump at frequent intervals
(refer to section 2.4.1.2) to prevent brinelling of the
bearings and the seal faces, if fitted, from sticking.
Electric Motors (Pump Driver) should not be stored in
damp places without special protection (Refer to
Motor manufacturers instructions).
The pump may be stored as above for up to 6
months.
