Make sure that the corrosion inhibitor used does not
affect the rubber parts with which it comes into
contact.
Commercially available preservatives can be used for
this purpose. Please observe the manufacturer’s
instructions for application or removal.
To prevent water, dust, etc. from entering the pump,
keep all openings covered until the pipes are to be
fitted. The cost of having to dismantle the pump
during startup to remove foreign objects can be very
high.
