4. Transport and storage
4.1. Delivery
On delivery, check immediately that the shipment is
complete and undamaged. If any parts are damaged
or missing, the transport company or the manu-
facturer must be notified on the day of delivery.
Claims made after this date cannot be recognized.
Any damage to parts must be noted on the freight
documentation.
4.2. Transport
Only the appropriate and approved fastening de-
vices and transportation and lifting equipment may
be used. These must have sufficient load bearing
capacity to ensure that the pump can be transport-
ed safely. If chains are used they must be secured
against slipping.
The personnel must be qualified for the tasks and
must follow all applicable national safety regula-
tions during the work.
The pumps are delivered by the manufacturer or
shipping agency in suitable packaging. This nor-
mally precludes the possibility of damage occurring
during transport and storage. The packaging should

be stored in a safe place for reuse if the product is
frequently used at different locations.
4.3. Storage
Newly supplied pumps are prepared so that they can
be stored for at least 1 year. The pump should be
cleaned thoroughly before it is put into temporary
storage.
The following should be taken into consideration for
storage:
• Place the pump on a firm surface and secure it
against slipping and falling over. Submersible sew-
age pumps are stored vertically.
DANGER: from falling
Never set the pump down unsecured. If the
pump falls over, it could cause an injury.
• Our pumps can be stored at temperatures down to
+5 °F (-15 °C). The storage area must be dry. We
recommend a frost-protected room for storage
with a temperature between 41 °F (5 °C) and 77 °F
(25 °C).
• Do not store the pump in rooms in which welding
work is carried out, because the resulting gases or
radiation can damage the elastomer components
and coating.
• Suction and pressure connections must be sealed
securely to prevent the entry of contamination.
• All power supply cables must be protected against
kinking, damage, and moisture ingress.
DANGER: electrical hazard!
Damaged power supply cables can cause fatal
injury! Defective cables must be replaced by a
qualified electrician immediately.
CAUTION: beware of moisture!
Moisture penetrating the cable will damage
both the pump and the cable. Never immerse
the cable end in fluid and always protect it from
moisture.
• The pump must be protected from direct sunlight,
heat, dust, and frost. Heat or frost can cause serious
damage to impellers and coatings!
• The impellers should be checked at regular intervals.
This presents jamming of the bearings and it renews
the film of lubrication on the mechanical seal.
WARNING: sharp edges!
Sharp edges can form on the impellers and
hydraulic openings. There is a risk of injury!
Wear the necessary protective clothing, such as
protective gloves.
• If the pump has been stored for a long period of
time, it should be cleaned of contaminants such as
dust and oil residue before commissioning. Check
