2.4.1.4 Delay in the startup
Startup of the pumps, after installation on the plant,
should be executed within two months as a
maximum.
In case, for any reason, the period between
installation and startup should exceed the two
months, the following precautions must be taken:
a) If acid descaling are foreseen on the plant, the
pump must be by-passed during these
operations, or, otherwise, shall be fully
disassembled, washed with basic solution, dried
and reassembled. All these operations shall be
executed by Flowserve personnel or under
Flowserve supervision.
b) It is advisable, for a long term permanence on the
plant before startup, that blind flanges are
interposed between the pump nozzles and the
relevant pipe, to avoid the possibility that foreign
material can be introduced into the pump. In case
such flange s not installed, it is advisable that the
inner parts of the pumps is carefully inspected
(by disassembling, if necessary) to verify the
absence of foreign material before the startup.
c) During the period between installation and
startup the same maintenance checks described
in point 2.4.1.3 shall be carried out.
