1. General information
Pump type and model are stated on the pump nameplate.
The pumps are fitted with Grundfos motors, type MG or MMG. If
the pump is fitted with a motor make other than Grundfos, please
note that the motor data may differ from the data stated in this
booklet. This may also influence the pump performance.
2. Delivery and handling
2.1 Delivery
The pumps are tested 100% before leaving the factory. The test
includes a function test where the pump performance is meas-
ured to ensure that the pump meets requirements of relevant
standards. Test certificates are available from Grundfos.
The pumps are delivered from the factory in a carton with a
wooden bottom designed for transport by equipment such as a
forklift truck.
Pump motors as from 4 kW are supplied with lifting eyes.
2.2 Handling
Pumps fitted with motors should be lifted by means of nylon
straps and shackles, if required. See fig. 1.

comply with local regulations and accepted codes of
good practice.
Pump motors as from 4 kW are supplied with lifting
eyes which must not be used for lifting the entire
pump unit. See fig. 2.
