Similarly the motor noise assumed in the “pump and
motor” noise is that typically expected from standard
and high efficiency motors when on load directly driving
the pump. Note that a motor driven by an inverter may
show an increased noise at some speeds.
If a pump unit only has been purchased for fitting with
your own driver then the “pump only” noise levels in
the table should be combined with the level for the
driver obtained from the supplier. Consult Flowserve
or a noise specialist if assistance is required in
combining the values.
It is recommended that where exposure approaches
the prescribed limit, then site noise measurements
should be made.
The values are in sound pressure level L
pA
at 1 m
(3.3 ft) from the machine, for “free field conditions
over a reflecting plane”.
For estimating sound power level L
WA
(re 1 pW) then
add 14 dBA to the sound pressure value.
2 TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
2.1 Consignment receipt and unpacking
Immediately after receipt of the equipment it must be
checked against the delivery/shipping documents for its
completeness and that there has been no damage in
transportation. Any shortage and/or damage must be
reported immediately to Flowserve and must be
received in writing within one month of receipt of the
equipment. Later claims cannot be accepted.
Check any crate, boxes or wrappings for any
accessories or spare parts that may be packed
separately with the equipment or attached to side
walls of the box or equipment.
Each product has a unique serial number. Check
that this number corresponds with that advised and
always quote this number in correspondence as well
as when ordering spare parts or further accessories.
2.2 Handling
Boxes, crates, pallets or cartons may be unloaded
using fork lift vehicles or slings dependent on their
size and construction.
2.3 Lifting
A crane must be used for all pump sets or
components in excess of 25 kg (55 lb.). Fully trained
personnel must carry out lifting, in accordance with
local regulations.
No specific lifting points are provided
for this complete machine (unless so specified). Any
lifting points that can be seen are provided only for
dismantling parts for servicing. Slings, ropes and
other lifting gear should be positioned where they
cannot slip and where a balanced lift is obtained.
The angle between sling or ropes used for lifting must
not exceed 60°.
Before lifting the driver alone, refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
The driver weight is recorded on its nameplate.
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.
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 requirements. If the
product contains substances that 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 that may be used in
the "seal system" or other utilities.
Make sure that hazardous substances or toxic
fluids 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.
