Installation and operating instructions Wilo-Padus UNI 19
ƒ Observe regulations for working with heavy loads and under
suspended loads.
ƒ Provide the necessary protective equipment and make sure
that the personnel wears it.
ƒ Provide adequate aeration in closed rooms.
ƒ Take immediate countermeasures if there is a build-up of toxic
or suffocating gases!
8.3 Shut-down
The pump is deactivated during decommissioning, but remains in-
stalled. This ensures that the pump is always ready for operation.
‡ To protect the pump from frost and ice, always immerse
the pump completely in the fluid.
‡ The temperature of the fluid must always be above +3°C
(+37°F).
1. Switch off the pump at the operating point.
2. Secure the operating point against being switched on
again by unauthorised persons (e.g. lock main switch).
▶ The pump is out of operation and can now be dis-
mantled.
If the pump remains installed after decommissioning, observe the
following:
ƒ Ensure that the prerequisites for decommissioning are main-
tained for the complete period of decommissioning. If these
prerequisites cannot be guaranteed, dismantle the pump after
decommissioning!
ƒ For an extended period of decommissioning, carry out a 5-
minute function test at regular intervals (monthly to quarterly).
CAUTION!A function test may only be carried out under the
applicable operating conditions. A dry run is not permitted!
Non-compliance can result in irreparable damage!
8.4 Removal
DANGER
Danger due to fluids hazardous to health!
If the pump is used in fluids hazardous to health, de-
contaminate the pump after dismantling and before
carrying out any other work! There is a risk of fatal in-

working practices!
Work in chambers and narrow rooms as well as work
involving risk of falling are dangerous work. Such
work may not be carried out autonomously! A second
person must be present for safety reasons.
WARNING
Risk of burns from hot surfaces!
Motor housing can become hot during operation. It
may cause burns. Allow the pump to cool down at
ambient temperature after switching it off!
