4. Delivery and handling
The pump is supplied from the factory in suitable packing in which
it should remain until installation. Make sure that the pump cannot
roll or fall over.
4.1 Transportation and storage
All lifting equipment must be rated for the purpose and checked
for damage before any attempt to lift the pump. The lifting
equipment rating must under no circumstances be exceeded.
The pump weight is stated on the pump nameplate.
For long periods of storage, the pump must be protected against
moisture and heat.
Transportation and storage temperature: -20 °C to +60 °C.
After a long period of storage, the pump should be inspected
before it is put into operation. Make sure that the impeller can
rotate freely. Pay special attention to the condition of the shaft
seals and the cable entry.
4.2 Lifting points
4.2.1 Installation types S/C/D
When lifting the pump, it is important to use the right lifting point
to keep the pump balanced. SE/SL pumps installation types
S/C/D are equipped with two lifting points (see fig. 2 and the table
below to find the correct lifting points) which ensure that the pump
can be lifted in a safe manner.
Fig. 2 Lifting points, installation type S/C/D
4.2.2 Installation type H
Installation type H can be lifted by using a hole in the flange and
the middle lifting point. See fig. 3.

Warning
Always lift the pump by its lifting bracket or by
means of a fork-lift truck, never by means of the
motor cable or the hose/pipe.
Do not remove the insulation from the free end of
the supply cable until the electrical connection is
to be made. Whether insulated or not, the free
cable end must never be exposed to moisture or
water. Non-compliance with this may cause
damage to the motor.
Warning
If the pump is stored for more than one year or it
will be a long time before it is put into operation
after the installation, the impeller must be turned
at least once a month.
