separately with the equipment or attached to side
walls of the box or equipment.
Each product has a unique serial number. Check that
this number corresponds with that advised and
always quote this number in correspondence as well
as when ordering spare parts or further accessories.
2.2 Handling
Boxes, crates, pallets or cartons may be unloaded
using fork lift vehicles or slings dependent on their
size and construction.
2.3 Lifting
A crane must be used for all pump
sets or components in excess of 25 kg (55 lb). Fully
trained personnel must carry out lifting, in
accordance with local regulations.
To avoid distortion, the pump unit should be
lifted by using lifting equipment certified to local
standards.
The pumps are generally very heavy therefore,
size/shape factors will have to be considered before
attempting to lift them. It is strongly recommended to
attempt lifting from a safe distance to prevent any
injury or loss of life. Consulting with experts is
recommended.
Pump heads may be shipped with the seal
housing installed. For ease of assembly and to
prevent damage, we recommend removing the
housing before putting the head on the pump.
Flowserve will not supply eyebolts neither
fixed nor separately with the pump. It is the
responsibility of the installer to arrange appropriate
hardware that can handle the weights and results in
safe and successful installation.
Before lifting the driver alone, refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
