7. DISASSEMBLY AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Before disassembly, the pump must have the drive "locked out" and be flushed of all
dangerous liquids. Follow all Federal, State, Local and company regulations with regard to pump
decontamination prior to disassembly and inspection. Ansimag K Series pumps are provided with a
low point casing drain to maximize pump decontamination.
Both the long coupled and close coupled K Series pumps can be pulled back from the casing. Therefore,
if permitted by company regulations, pump disassembly and inspection can be conducted on site.
Before inspecting, be sure to have a spare casing O-ring on hand to reinstall after the inspection is
completed.
