frost-protected room for storage with a temperature
between 5 °C and 25 °C.
• The product may not be stored in rooms where welding
work is conducted as the resulting gases and radiated heat
can damage the elastomer parts and coatings.
• Any suction or discharge ports should be closed tightly
before storage to prevent impurities.
• The current supply cables should be protected against
kinking, damage, and moisture.
ELECTRICAL hazard!
Damaged power supply cables can cause fatal inju-
ry! Defective cables must be replaced by a qualified
electrician immediately.
BEWARE of moisture!
Moisture penetrating the cable will damage both
the product and the cable. never immerse the
cable end in fluid and always protect it from mois-
ture.
• The product must be protected from direct sunlight, heat,
dust, and frost. Heat and frost can cause considerable
damage to rotors and coatings!
• The impellers must be turned at regular intervals. This pre-
vents the bearings from jamming and the film of lubricant
on the mechanical shaft seal is renewed.
BEWARE of sharp edges!
Sharp edges can form on impellers and hydraulic
ports. there is a risk of injuries! Wear the necessary
protective clothing, e.g. safety gloves.
• If the product has been stored for a long period of time
it should be cleaned of impurities such as dust and oil
deposits before start-up. Rotors should be checked
for smooth operation. The housing coatings should be
checked for damage.
Before start-up, the filling level in the oil separa-
tion chamber should be checked and topped up, if
necessary.
Damaged coatings should be repaired immediately.
only a coating that is completely intact fulfills the
criteria for intended use.
If these rules are observed, your product can be stored for a
lengthy period. Please remember that elastomer parts and coat-
ings become brittle over time. If the product is to be stored for
longer than 6 months, we recommend checking these parts and
replacing them as necessary. Consult the manufacturer for details.
