SVCN 7 INSTALLATION, OPERATION, & MAINTENANCE
1.7.5 ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT
For motors, turbines, gears, or any other equipment supplied by Flowserve with your pump, see the
specific storage requirements in the manufacturer’s manual in the back of this manual.
1.8 PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION & OPERATION
WARNING
Fumes from alcohol, acetone, petroleum solvents and
other such chemicals are injurious to health and may
ignite from a spark. Ensure that the area where they are
used is well ventilated and has a fire extinguisher nearby.
After the equipment has been inspected and unpacked after receipt or storage, the pump surfaces must
be cleaned and prepared for operation before installing the pump.
Internal and unpainted external surfaces of the pump (as well as items ordered separately) are
protected with a petroleum-based rust preventative. This can be removed by wiping or flushing with a
petroleum-based solvent.
Any painted surfaces that have been scratched or chipped should be touched-up with the appropriate
paint.
