Installation
If the EH pump will be fitted in a new system, ensure that all preliminary pipelines have been installed and that a
suitable base for the EH pump has been prepared before starting installation.
Check that the following services and facilities are available for connection to the EH pump:
Cooling water supply and return.
Electrical supply.
Exhaust extraction system.
Inlet mesh (if required, to prevent the ingress of debris during commissioning).
3.3 Unpack and inspect
Use the following procedure to unpack and inspect the EH pump:
1. Place the pallet in a convenient position with a fork lift truck or a pallet truck.
2. Remove all packing materials.
3. Use suitable lifting gear to remove the EH pump from its pallet:
On all pumps, attach the lifting gear to the centre pair of lifting bolts (Figure 1 to 3, item 1) on the EH pump.
All EH2600 pumps have centres of mass that are offset towards the motor. On these pumps, fit an additional
support strap to the motor (behind the lifting bolt) to support the pump and prevent it from tilting when
lifted.
4. Remove all protective covers and inspect the EH pump.
5. If the pump is damaged, notify the supplier and the carrier in writing within three days; state the Item Number
of the pump together with the order number and the supplier's invoice number. Retain all packing materials for
inspection. Do not use the pump if it is damaged.
6. If the EH pump will not be used immediately, refit the protective covers. Store the EH pump in suitable
conditions as described in Section 6.1.
Use suitable lifting equipment to move the pump. Failure to do so can cause injury to people and
damage to the equipment. Refer to Section 2.4 for the mass of the pump.
