3.2 Unpacking, Cleaning and Assembling
3.2.1 Unpacking
For transportation purposes the centrifugal pump is fastened to a palette by bands. For
transportation over long distances it is packed in crates or boxes .
After removing the retaining bands extract the centrifugal pump out of its packing with the
help of suitable lifting equipment.
3.2.2 Cleaning
A number of measures are taken for protection against transportation damage and
corrosion. Check your centrifugal pump for which measures have been taken.
1. Covering lid on the nozzles
2. Shaft protection for deliveries without the motor
3. Protective paint on exposed parts
These protective measures must be removed before the centrifugal pump is set up or
installed.
Important:
Under no circumstances must impurities be left inside the centrifugal pump.
!
Depending on the delivery medium to be used, the interior of the centrifugal
pump should be cleaned of residual traces of oil. Use a cleaning agent that will
not be harmful to the mechanical seal and the pump materials.
Make sure that the pump is carefully dried after cleaning.
The cleaning agents that can be used include spirit, Ritzol 155 or a strongly
alkaline soap solution, for example. If a steam jet cleaner is to be used, then
let the solvent work itself in for a time first.
Please do not use a steam jet cleaner. If this is unavoidable, then please take
care not to damage the electric motor and bearings.
