7. Shutdown

7.1 Temporary shutdown

For this type of shutdown, the machine remains installed and is not cut off from the electricity supply. For
temporary shutdown, the machine must remain completely submerged so that it is protected from frost and ice.
Make sure the operating room and the pumped fluid cannot be covered by ice.
This ensures that the machine is always ready for operation. During longer shutdown periods, carry out a regular
(monthly to quarterly) function run for a period of 5 minutes.
Caution!

7.2 Final shutdown / storage

Switch off the system, disconnect the machine from the electricity supply and dismantle and store it. Note the
following information concerning storage:
Beware of hot parts!
When removing the machine, be careful of the temperature of the housing components. These can heat
up to well above 40°C. Let the machine cool down to ambient temperature before you touch it.
Clean the machine.
Store it in a clean, dry place, protect the machine against frost.
Place it down vertically onto a firm foundation and secure it against falling.
Seal the intake and discharge ports of pumps with suitable material (such as foil).
Support the electric connecting lead on the cable lead-in to help avoid a permanent deformation.
Protect the ends of the electric power cable from moisture.
Protect the machine from direct sunshine as a preventive measure against brittleness in elastomer
parts and the propeller and casing coating.
When storing the machine in a garage please remember: Radiation and gases which occur during
electric welding destroy the elastomers of the seals.
During lengthy periods of storage, regularly (for example every six months) turn the impeller or
propeller by hand. This prevents indentations in the bearings and stops the rotor from rusting up.

7.3 Restarting after an extended period of storage
