If the ECA is removed from the pump eccentric box, it should be stored in the same pump
mounted orientation. After removing the ECA
from the eccentric box, seal the opening with
a dust and moisture proof material. If the ECA
was shipped in its own carton, it should be
stored in that carton.

5.2 Long Term (12 months or more)

Storage of the ECA for periods of longer than twelve months is not recommended. If extended
storage is unavoidable, the ECA should be stored in accordance with those conditions
stipulated for Short Term Storage. In addition, a porous bag of 85g (3 oz) silica gel or similar
desiccant should be placed within the enclosure. The cover should be re-installed to seal the
desiccant within the enclosure. The two conduit connections must be tightly capped. Inspect
the unit carefully for any signs of damage and remove the desiccant before placing it into
operation.

Special note for long-term storage:

If AC input power has not been applied to the ECA for a period greater than 12 months, the
controller must be prepared for operation. The ECA should have AC power applied at the
input for a period of 8 hours before placing pump into normal operation. Refer to Installation
and Wiring section for AC power connection instructions.
