2 TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
2.1 Consignment receipt and unpacking
Immediately after receipt of the equipment it must be
checked against the delivery/shipping documents for
its completeness and that there has been no damage
in transportation. Any shortage and/or damage must
be reported immediately to Flowserve Pump Division
and must be received in writing within one month of
receipt of the equipment. Later claims cannot be
accepted.
Check any crate, boxes or wrappings for any
accessories or spare parts that may be packed
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.
The pump should be lifted with suitably sized and
located slings. Do not use the shaft for lifting and take
special care to prevent the pump from rotating in the
slings due to unbalanced weight distribution.
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. The driver and pump weights are
recorded on the general arrangement drawing for the
specific project. The table of engineering data in
section 3.5 is for bare pump only and does not
include the weight of the base, driver or auxiliary
equipment.
The pump unit should be lifted as shown. Do not Use
the driver, bare shaft pump or component lifting
points to lift the complete machine.
Before lifting the driver alone, refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions
