WARNING
RESALE OF PUMPS AND PARTS
Due to the highly engineered nature of vertical turbine pumps, Trillium Pumps USA does
not recommend reselling used pumps or pump parts. Potentially unsafe conditions could
be created by using pumps and pump parts in applications for which they are not
intended for. Furthermore, used parts may be unsafe and not fit for any use due to
corrosion, wear, or other damage.
NOTICE
For drivers, mechanical seals, and other auxiliary equipment, refer to the respective
manufacturer's IOM for further details regarding decommissioning and disposal.
