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 in
excess of 25 kg (55 lb). Fully trained personnel must
carry out lifting, in accordance with local regulations.
Pumps with drivers over approximately 7.5 kW, are
supplied with the pump packed as a separate item from
the driver. For improved stability unbolt the driver and
lift the driver and pump separately. They should be
lifted separately into their installed position, using lifting
points on the pump soleplate and on the motor.
Pumps and motors often have integral
lifting lugs or eye bolts. These are only intended for
use in lifting the individual piece of equipment.
Before lifting the driver alone, refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
When lifting pumps with drivers fitted,
the resulting center of gravity may be above the lifting
points, and the method of slinging must prevent the
machine tipping during the lift. Slings, ropes and other
lifting gear must be positioned where they cannot slip
and where a balanced lift is obtained.
Most units are supplied with four lifting points on the
pump sole plate [6140]. Attach D-links onto all four
lifting points. Use a spreader beam attached to the
overhead crane and fit two D-links. Ensure the sling is
not in contact with the pin of any of the D-links. Lift the
pump up to the vertical, as shown above using the
D-links on the sole plate.
To avoid distortion, the pump unit
should be lifted as shown.
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 six
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 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.
For lifting the driver on to or off the
pump refer to the dimension
