4. Storage
Instructions
The DLC-XP/RC can be successfully stored for extended periods. The key to this success is control of
temperature and humidity.
4.1
Short Term (0 - 12 months)
The DLC-XP/RC should be stored in a temperature and humidity controlled environment. It is
preferable to keep the temperature constant in the range of -18 to 60° Celsius (0 to 140° Fahrenheit).
The relative humidity should be 0 to 90% non-condensing. The adjustment knob should be rotated by
hand one full revolution every six months.
If the DLC-XP/RC is installed on the pump, it should not be removed during this period - provided the
above conditions can be applied to the pump as well. If the DLC-XP/RC is removed from the pump, it
should be stored in the same pump mounted orientation. After removal, seal the eccentric box opening
with a dust and moisture proof material. If the DLC-XP/RC was shipped in its own carton, it should be
stored in that carton.
4.2
Long Term (12 months or more)
Storage of the DLC-XP/RC for periods of longer than twelve months is not recommended. If extended
storage is un-avoidable the DLC-XP/RC should be stored in accordance with those conditions stipulated
for Short Term Storage. In addition, a porous bag of 85g (3 oz) silica gel or similar desiccant should be
placed beneath the wiring access cover. The cover should be re-installed to seal the desiccant within the
enclosure. The three conduit connections must be tightly capped.
