0.1.7 Theequipmentmustnotbepressurisedbeyondthemaximumworkingpressureasstatedon
pressuresensors/temperaturesensors/pumps/pipework/vessels/controlpanelotherwiseserious
mechanicaldamage/destructioncouldoccurcausinginjurytopeopleorproperty.
0.1.8 Theequipmentmustnotbeheated/chilledbeyondthemaximum/minimumworkingtemperature
asstatedonpressuresensors/temperaturesensors/pumps/pipework/vessels/controlpanel
otherwiseseriousmechanicaldamage/destructioncouldoccurcausinginjurytopeopleorproperty.
0.1.9 Anydamagetoequipment,sensors,pumpset,vessels,pipeworkorsystemcomponentscausedby
misapplication,mishandlingormisusecouldleadtoElectricshockhazard,Burnshazard,Firehazard,
Floodinghazardorcauseinjurytopeopleorproperty.
0.1.10 Thisequipmentmaycontainmoving/rotatingpartsthatmustremainguarded.Removalofor
missingguardscouldleadtoseriouspersonalinjury.
0.1.11 Pressurevesselsmustneverbedisassembledwhilstinuse,theycontainhighpressureair/gascharge
whichcouldcauseinjurytopeopleorproperty.
0.1.12 Pumpmotorswithliftingeyes;theliftingeyesareonlysuitableforliftingmotorsNOTtheentire
pumpassembly.Thiscouldcauseinjurytopeopleorproperty.
0.1.13 Ensurethebase/foundation/plinth/walltowhichtheequipmentistobeattachedissufficiently
strongenoughtocarrytheentiremassoftheequipmentincludingthewaterthatitwillcontain
underworst‐casefaultconditions.E.g.fullysaturatedpressurevesselwithnoaircharge,breaktank
fulltooverflowing,etc.Failuretoobservethiscouldcauseseriousmechanicaldamage/destruction
resultingininjurytopeopleorproperty.
0.1.14 Thisequipmentcontainsafluidwhichmayundercertaincircumstancesleak/drip/sprayfluid(e.g.
servicing,repairormalfunction).Ensureanyfluiddischargewillnotcausedamagetothe
surroundingsbytakingappropriateaction.E.g.installinaplacethatwillnotbedamagedbyleakage
orinstallinabundedareawithadequatedrainage.

0.2 CAUTIONSFORINSTALLATION
0.2.1 READGENERALSAFETYINFORMATION0.0,WARNINGS0.1andCAUTIONS0.2,0.3&0.4
0.2.2 Theunitshouldonlybeinstalled/operatedbyacompetentperson;Acompetentpersonissomeone
whoistechnicallycompetentandfamiliarwithsafetypracticesandthehazardsinvolved.
0.2.3 Donotliftthepumpset(wheresupplied)bypipework.Liftthepumpsetbythecontainerpalletusinga
pallet/forkliftorcranebypassingstropsunderneaththeskidusingaspreaderbar.Failuretoutilise
thesefacilitieswillresultindamagetothepumpset.
0.2.4 Storeinadryplacetoavoiddampconditionsdeterioratingtheequipment.
0.2.5 Protectagainstdirt,damageandfrost.Itisabsolutelyessentialthatnoforeignmattersuchaspipe
threadswarf,weldingslag,gritorstonesareallowedtoentertheequipment.Debrisofthistypecan
causeseveredamagetothesensors,mechanicalseals,diaphragmsandimpeller.Frost/freezingwill
damagesensors,pumps/pipeworkandcontrolpanelcomponents.
0.2.6 Theequipmentisonlysuitableforinstallationinaclean,dustfreeindoorenvironment,withadequate
protectionfromheatandfrost,andsufficientventilationtoensurecoolingofthemotors(where
applicable).Ambientairtemperatureshouldbebetween5and40degreescentigrade,non‐
condensating.Operationoutsideoftheseconditionscouldseriouslydamagetheequipment.
0.2.7 Iftheequipmentweretobestoredortakenoutofserviceforaperiodoftime(e.g.1weekormore),
thenwewouldrecommenddrainingtheequipmentofallwater/liquid(withdueregardtoanylocal
regulations)topreventfrostdamagetocomponents.Whenrestartingisrequiredwewould
recommendcommissioningbyourauthorisedserviceagent.
0.2.8 Ensurethebase/foundation/plinth/walltowhichtheequipmentistobeattachedhassufficientmass
comparedtotheequipment,inordertoavoidnoise/vibrationtransmission.E.g.themassofthebase
shouldbeatleastfivetimesthemassoftheequipment.
