4.3.2 After Storage
• Remove the temporary protections and visually check the condition of all the elements.
• If the pump has been stored and/or stopped for a long period of time (more than 6 months) it is necessary:
o Renew the lubrication of bearings.
o Check the condition of the gaskets.
o Check leveling.
o Check all auxiliary connections.
• After a short storage period, it is sufficient to manually rotate the pump shaft to unlock the rotor assembly.
• Carry out the instructions for after short storage specific to the manuals of motors and other elements.
• Observe the other steps listed in the "Start-up" section.
If the equipment is going to be stopped for a certain period of time and there is danger of frost, it is necessary to drain the
pump completely to avoid its deterioration due to the possible freezing of the contained fluid.
