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 pump at
intervals to prevent brinelling of the bearings and
the seal faces, if fitted, from sticking.

Do not store pumps starting on the fan guard.

The pump may be stored as above for up to 6
months. Consult Flowserve for preservative
actions when a longer storage period is needed.

2.5 Recycling and end of product life

At the end of the service life of the product or its
parts, the relevant materials and parts should be
recycled or disposed of using an environmentally
acceptable method and local regulations.
If the product contains substances which are
harmful to the environment, these should be
removed and disposed of in accordance with
current regulations. This also includes the liquids
and or gases in the "seal system" or other utilities.

Make sure that hazardous substances or

toxic fluid are disposed of safely and that the
correct personal protective equipment is used. The
safety specifications must be in accordance with
the current regulations at all times.

3 PUMP DESCRIPTION

3.1 Configurations

The NMD or NMAD type pump is a vertical, multi-
stage, simple suction and radial joint plan pump.
This pump is designed for the pumping of cold
water or all clear liquids which are not solid and
liquid mixtures, corrosive, abrasive or explosive
when in contact with the pump motor unit and its
working parts (Important: for other liquids consult
FLOWSERVE for preliminary advice).

The modular design (2 hydraulics by pump
type, number of stages variation) enables an
accurate pump adjustment to the required
operating conditions
