9.9 Shipping the pump or pump unit
If the pump must be sent to the supplier for major maintenance, repair or overhaul, the following
conditions must be met:
– The pump must be drained and thoroughly cleaned inside.
– All compartments of the drip tray under the pump and motor/engine must be drained prior to
transport.
WARNING
Leakage of environmentally harmful liquids can be extremely damaging to the
environment. Do everything necessary to prevent this.
– For compliance with the safety and environmental regulations, the shipment must be accompanied
by a ‘Declaration of no objection’.
Note
BA series pumps may be equipped with a back-pull out system. This makes it possible to remove the
bearing block with intermediate housing, mechanical shaft seal, shaft and impeller from the pump
housing as a whole without the need to remove the suction and pressure pipes.
