3. Equipment Inspection
Check all equipment for completeness against the order and for any evidence of shipping
damage. Shortages or damage should be reported immediately to the carrier and your
PulsaPro
Representative.
4. Storage Instructions
4.1 Short Term
Storage of
PulsaPro
Series pumps for up to 12 months is considered short-term. The
recommended short-term storage procedures are:
a) Store the pump indoors at room temperature in a dry environment.
b) Prior to startup, inspect the pump head, and gearbox. Replenish oil as required to
maintain operating levels. If water or condensation is present, change oil as described in
the Equipment Startup section.
c) Prior to startup, perform a complete inspection and then start up in accordance with the
instructions in this manual.
4.2 Long Term
Every twelve months, in addition to the above short-term procedures, power up the motor and
operate the pump for a minimum of one hour. It is not necessary to have liquid in the reagent
head during this operation, but the suction and discharge ports must be open to atmosphere.
After twelve months of storage, Pulsafeeder’s warranty cannot cover items that are subject to
deterioration with age such as seals and gaskets. If the pump has been in storage longer than 12
months it is recommended that all seals and gaskets be inspected and replaced as necessary
prior to startup. Materials and labor to replace this class of item under this circumstance are the
purchaser’s responsibility. For a continuance of the 5 year warranty after extended storage,
equipment inspection and any required refurbishing must be done by a Pulsafeeder
Representative.
