English
Use in drinking water is not permitted!
• If a product is operated with a lubricant or cooling
fluid (such as oil), the pumped liquid can be con-
taminated by these substances if the mechanical
shaft seal is defective.
• It is strictly prohibited to pump explosive or highly
flammable liquids in pure form!
DANGER – explosive liquids!
It is strictly prohibited to pump explosive
liquids (gasoline, kerosene, etc.). The products
are not designed for these liquids!
2.12. Sound pressure
Depending on the size and output (kW), the prod-
uct generates a sound pressure of approximately
70 dB (A) to 110 dB (A).
The actual sound pressure, however, depends on
several factors. These include, the installation
depth, configuration, fastening of accessories and
pipeline, operating point, immersion depth, etc.
Once the product has been installed, we recom-
mend that the operator make additional mea-
surements under all operating conditions.
CAUTION: Wear ear protectors!
In terms of the applicable laws and regu-
lations, ear protection must be worn if the
sound pressure is greater than 85 dB (A). The
owner is responsible for ensuring compliance
with these regulations.
3. Transport and storage
3.1. Delivery
On delivery, immediately check that the prod-
uct is complete and undamaged. If any parts are
damaged or missing, the transport company or
the manufacturer must be notified on the day of
delivery. Claims made after this date cannot be
recognized. Damage to parts must be noted on
the delivery or freight documentation.
3.2. Transport
Only the appropriate and approved fastening de-
vices, transportation and lifting gear may be used.
These must have sufficient load-bearing capacity
to ensure that the product can be transported
safety. 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 product is delivered by the manufacturer or
shipping agency in suitable packaging. This nor-
mally precludes the possibility of damage occur-
ring during transport and storage. The packaging
should be stored in a safe place for reuse if the
product is frequently used at different locations.

TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
3.3. Storage
Newly supplied products are prepared so that
they can be stored for at least 1 year. The product
should be cleaned thoroughly before it is put into
temporary storage.
The following should be taken into consideration
for storage:
• Place the product on a firm surface and secure it
against slipping and falling over. Wastewater and
sewage submersible pumps are stored vertically.
DANGER from falling over!
Never set down the product unsecured. If the
product falls over, injury can occur!
• Our products can be stored at temperatures down
to -15 °C. The store room must be dry. We recom-
mend a frost-protected room for storage with a
temperature between 5 °C and 25 °C.
• The product may not be stored in rooms where
welding work is conducted as the resulting gases
and radiated heat can damage the elastomer
parts and coatings.
• Any suction or discharge ports should be closed
tightly before storage to prevent impurities.
• The current supply cables should be protected
against kinking, damage, and moisture.
ELECTRICAL hazard!
Damaged power supply cables can cause fatal
injury! Defective cables must be replaced by a
qualified electrician immediately.
BEWARE of moisture!
Moisture penetrating the cable will damage
both the product and the cable. Therefore,
never immerse cable ends in the pumped
liquid or other liquids.
• The machine must be protected from direct
sunlight, heat, dust, and frost. Heat and frost
can cause considerable damage to rotors and
coatings!
• The impellers must be turned at regular intervals.
This prevents the bearings from jamming and the
film of lubricant on the mechanical shaft seal is
renewed.
BEWARE of sharp edges!
Sharp edges can form on impellers and hy-
draulic ports. There is a risk of injuries! Wear
protective gloves.
• If the product has been stored for a long period
of time it should be cleaned of impurities such
as dust and oil deposits before start-up. Rotors
should be checked for smooth operation. The
housing coatings should be checked for damage.
Before start-up, the filling levels (oil, motor
filling, etc.) should be checked and topped up, if
necessary.
