4.3 Storage of the coupling
The coupling is delivered in a preserved condition and can be stored in a covered, dry place for up to
6 months. If the unit is to be stored for a longer period, it should be treated with a longterm preservative
agent (Flender must be consulted).
Correctly stored couplings retain their properties unchanged.
NOTICE
Risk of damage to the coupling through improper storage
Impairment of the physical properties of the coupling and/or coupling parts.
The storage area must be dry (air humidity less than 65 %) and free from dust. Ensure that no
condensation occurs. Do not store with aggressive chemicals, acids, alkalis, etc.
If the coupling contains elastomer components, no ozonegenerating equipment of any kind, such as
fluorescent light sources, mercury vapour lamps or hightension electrical equipment, must be allowed
into the storage areas.
Storage of the coupling on suitable aids or in suitable containers.
