3. EQUIPMENT INSPECTION
Check all equipment for completeness against the order and for any evidence of shipping damage.
Shortages or damage must be reported immediately to the carrier and your Pulsafeeder representative.
3.1 Storage Instructions
The ECA can be successfully stored for extended periods. The key to this success is control of
temperature and humidity.
3.1.1 Short Term (0 - 12 months)...
The ECA 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.
If the ECA 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 ECA is removed from the pump eccentric box, it should be stored in the same pump
mounted orientation. After removing the ECA from the eccentric box, seal the opening with a
dust and moisture proof material. If the ECA was shipped in its own carton, it should be stored
in that carton.
3.1.2 Long Term (12 months or more)...
Storage of the ECA for periods of longer than twelve months is not recommended. If extended
storage is unavoidable, the ECA 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 within the enclosure. The cover should be re-installed to seal the desiccant
within the enclosure. The two conduit connections must be tightly capped. Inspect the unit
carefully for any signs of damage before placing it into operation.
