10.4 Decontamination and Declaration of
Clearance
 WARNING
Danger from flammable, caustic or toxic
substances!
To protect the environment and persons, the
following applies:
Pump-motor unit which have come into contact
with dangerous substances must always be
decontaminated before being passed on to a
workshop!
A so-called Declaration of Clearance must be
included with each pump-motor unit that is
given to a workshop for inspection,
maintenance or repair.
The declaration of clearance
 is provided as a pre-printed form for
photocopying on page 31,
 is legally binding,
 must be filled out and signed by authorized,
qualified personnel,
 must be issued for each unit sent in (i.e. a
separate declaration for each unit),
 must be attached outside on the packing of
the unit,
 should be sent to as a copy by fax the
workshop conducting the work prior to
shipment.
This ensures
 that the unit has not come into contact with
dangerous substances,
 that a unit that has come into contact with
dangerous substances has been sufficiently
decontaminated,
 that the inspection, maintenance or repair
personnel can take the required protective
measures if necessary.
NOTICE
The inspection/maintenance/ repair of the unit
at the workshop will not be begun
until the declaration of clearance has been
received!
If the declaration of clearance is not included
with the shipment,
delays may result!
11 Disposal
Have the entire pump-motor unit scrapped by a
suitable disposal company. No special
measures are required when doing so.
For additional information on disposing of the
