1.7 FEATURES OF THE MACHINE ROOM
Before installing:
- Make sure that the shaft, pit, head and machine room correspond to the project data and respond to
the regulations in force, and:
- Make sure that access ways allow the passage of the different components to be installed.
- Make sure that the bottom of the pit is clean, dry and waterproof.
- Make sure that the shaft is ventilated and illuminated sufficiently.
- Make sure that the machine room has the access door with opening towards the outside, if possible
noise-proof, well-ventilated and its temperature preferably between 10 and 30 °C.
2 TRANSPORT AND STORAGE
2.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
For the transport and the storage of the hydraulic components, the general safety regulations always have to
be followed:
When loads have to be lifted, only use proper hoists and respect their max. capacity.
Never walk or stop under the hanging loads.
Avoid hydraulic components from shocks.
- If the hydraulic components have to be stored, first control that packaging and protections are in a
perfect state; if necessary repair or replace them with other more suitable ones.
- Store the hydraulic components in a dry place, dust free with a temperature between 5 and 30°C.
- If the cylinders or the pump units have to be stored for a long time, it is better for the preservation to
fill them with oil to prevent oxidation phenomena.
2.2 PUMP UNITS
The pump unit is protected by a thermo-shrinking plastic cover and plastic film. In case customers ask, the
pump unit can be packed in resistant cardboard or in a wooden cage.
TRANSPORT OF PUMP UNITS
• Load and unload the pump units using clamp trucks. If the pump unit has to be lifted with ropes,
make them pass under the handles (see Figure 1).
• The pump units cannot be placed on each other, if not packed in special wooden cages designed to.
