3 Transport and Interim Storage
3.1 Safety Instructions
Transport of the unit requires proper
preparation and handling. Observe the following
explanations and safety instructions.
3.2 Transport
Transport in horizontal position is recommended in
all cases, since this ensures stable positioning of
the unit without any risk of accident, whatever the
method of transport is, e.g. road, rail or ship, etc.
For transport purposes the unit should be secured
on suitable pallets or sleds. All loose and movable
parts must be secured.
3.3 Lifting and Transport of the Pump
Unit by Crane
The motor lifting lugs may only be used for
lifting the motor alone and never for lifting the
complete unit.
When a crane is used to lift or transport the unit,
pay attention to the angle of spread of the lifting
equipment (ropes, belts).
Avoid angles of more than 90 °!
Use separate belts on each side!
The diagrams on the right show how to correctly lift
and transport the unit by crane.
3.4 Interim storage
Please observe the instructions set out in the
chapter 6.5 “ Shutdown / Storage / Preservation”
