2 TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
2.1 Consignment receipt and unpacking
Immediately after receipt of the equipment it must
be checked against the delivery/shipping
documents for its completeness and that there has
been no damage in transportation. Any shortage
and/or damage must be reported immediately to
Flowserve Pump Division and must be received in
writing within one month of receipt of the
equipment. Later claims cannot be accepted.
Check any crate, boxes or wrappings for any
accessories or spare parts that may be packed
separately with the equipment or attached to
sidewalls of the box or equipment.
Each product has a unique serial number. Check
that this number corresponds with that advised and
always quote this number in correspondence as
well as when ordering spare parts or further
accessories.
Your pump was carefully checked at the factory
prior to shipment to ensure compliance with the
requirements of your order. It is suggested that the
pump be inspected upon arrival for damages or
signs of rough handling. If any damage is found
and/or parts are missing, notify the carrier and
nearest Flowserve office immediately. Failure to do
so may affect the validity of the warranty.
The condition of the skid and covering is indicative
as to the way the shipment was handled. Broken
skids, torn coverings, bent hold-down bolts, broken
straps, etc., indicate rough handling.
Inspect all covers over pump openings and piping
connections. The protective covers on the pump
nozzles should be in place and undamaged. If
covers or seals for the covers are damaged or
loose, they are to be removed, and a visual
inspection made of the accessible interior areas for
accumulation of foreign materials or water. Install or
replace covers and fasten securely.
Inspect the preservative coating on the various
parts. If necessary, renew the preservative in areas
where it has been rubbed off or scraped to restore
the parts to the "as shipped" condition.
Inspect all painted surfaces. If necessary, touch up
the areas where paint has been chipped or scraped.
Paints and preservatives used are either Flowserve
standard or special as required by the contract
specification.
The driver [8000] end cover, screens, and conduit
box should be visually inspected for damage.
Shipping documents should be checked to
determine satisfactory arrival of any special tools,
loose parts, and/or spare parts (if provided), which
are usually preserved and packed in a box attached
to the skid.
2.2 Handling
Boxes, crates, pallets or cartons may be unloaded
using forklift vehicles or slings dependent on their
size and construction. Consult current local
regulations.
2.3 Lifting
Careful attention must be paid to lifting the
unit. Improper lifting can result in severe injury to
personnel and/or damage to the equipment. Only
qualified personnel trained in proper methods of
lifting equipment should attempt to rig and lift this
equipment.
To lift pump and baseplate [6110] or
just baseplate [6110], sling baseplate [6110] from all
lifting eyes provided. Failure to do this may result in
permanent deformation of baseplate.
Assure that coupling(s) [7000] are
disconnected before lifting equipments.
To lift the pump use cored holes in
corners, see Fig.1. Use 4 slings to minimise danger
of twisting the suction and discharge casings [1130
and 1140].
Fig.1 Lifting the pump
The suction casing [1130] /discharge casing
[1140] nozzles, and/or any auxiliary equipment or
piping, should never be used to support the weight
of the pump-driver unit, or any of its parts.
Be sure that the lifting slings and/or
chains are positioned to take equal strain so that
twisting or sudden movement will not occur. Control
lines around the pump or driver [8000], are
suggested to prevent the unit from swinging or
flipping over
