FOR

 

THE

 

OPERATOR

 

OPERATION

 

ON

 

THE

 

PUMP

 

SET

 

:

  

Make

 

sure

 

that

 

electric

 

power

 

is

 

switched

 

off

 

before

 

maintenance

 

operations

 

starts.

 

Electrical

 

protection

 

should

 

not

 

be

 

removed

 

while

 

pump

 

is

 

running.

 

 

Empty

 

pump

 

casing

 

and

 

isolate

 

piping

 

before

 

starting

 

dismantling

 

of

 

pump.

 

If

 

dangerous

 

liquid

 

was

 

pumped

 

the

 

pump

 

should

 

be

 

decontaminated

 

and

 

cleaned

 

prior

 

to

 

dismantling.

 

 

HANDLING

 

OF

 

COMPONENTS

 

:

 

Some

 

machined

 

parts

 

may

 

have

 

sharp

 

edges.

 

Wear

 

safety

 

gloves

 

and

 

use

 

necessary

 

protections

 

to

 

handle

 

them.

 

 

A

 

lifting

 

device

 

must

 

be

 

used

 

to

 

lift

 

parts

 

exceeding

 

25Kg.

 

Use

 

lifting

 

device

 

in

 

accordance

 

with

 

local

 

regulations.

 

 

HOT

 

OR

 

COLD

 

PUMP

 

PARTS:

  

Avoid

 

accidental

 

contact

 

with

 

very

 

hot

 

or

 

very

 

cold

 

components.

 

Actions

 

must

 

be

 

taken

 

if

 

their

 

surface

 

temperature

 

is

 

higher

 

than

 

68

 

°C

 

or

 

below

 ‐

5°C

 

:

 

(pump

 

or

 

accessories).

 

If

 

a

 

complete

 

protection

 

is

 

not

 

possible,

 

the

 

access

 

to

 

the

 

machine

 

must

 

be

 

limited

 

to

 

maintenance

 

staff

 

only.

 

A

 

clear

 

visual

 

warning

 

panel

 

must

 

be

 

attached

 

in

 

the

 

immediate

 

area

 

to

 

indicate

 

the

 

danger.

 

 

HAZARDOUS

 

LIQUIDS:

 

When

 

the

 

pump

 

is

 

handling

 

some

 

dangerous

 

liquids,

 

a

 

special

 

care

 

must

 

be

 

taken

 

to

 

avoid

 

exposure

 

to

 

the

 

liquid.

 

Make

 

sure

 

the

 

pump

 

is

 

set

 

in

 

an

 

appropriate

 

location

 

and

 

access

 

to

 

the

 

pump

 

must

 

be

 

limited.

 

Operators

 

should

 

be

 

trained

 

to

 

potential

 

risks.

 

If

 

the

 

liquid

 

is

 

flammable

 

and/or

 

explosive,

 

strict

 

safety

 

procedures

 

must

 

be

 

applied.

 

2.4.2

 

SAFETY

 

INSTRUCTIONS

 

FOR

 

THE

 

EQUIPMENT

 

Quick

 

temperature

 

changes

 

of

 

the

 

liquid

 

contained

 

in

 

the

 

pump

 

should

 

be

 

avoided.

 

A

 

thermal

 

shock

 

may

 

drive

 

to

 

damages

 

or

 

destruction

 

of

 

components,

 

creating

 

leakages.

 

 

Ensure

 

that

 

pump

 

flanges

 

do

 

not

 

support

 

excessive

 

external

 

forces

 

when

 

fastening

 

piping

 

flanges

 

or

 

after

 

increasing

 

of

 

liquid

 

temperature.

 

Do

 

not

 

use

 

pump

 

as

 

a

 

support

 

for

 

piping.

 

If

 

expansion

 

joints

 

are

 

used

 

they

 

should

 

be

 

equipped

 

with

 

axial

 

movement

 

limiting

 

device.

 

 

Before

 

checking

 

direction

 

of

 

rotation

 

make

 

sure

 

that

 

no

 

parts

 

could

 

be

 

ejected

 

from

 

shafts

 

(pins,

 

keys,

 

coupling

 

element

 

…).

 

Several

 

pump

 

types

 

will

 

be

 

damaged

 

if

 

started

 

in

 

the

 

wrong

 

direction

 

of

 

rotation

 

(screwed

 

impeller

 

design).

 

The

 

flexible

 

coupling

 

of

 

a

 

pump

 

set

 

must

 

be

 

disconnected

 

before

 

first

 

start

 

up

 

to

 

check

 

direction

 

of

 

rotation.

 

 

Unless

 

otherwise

 

indicated

 

and

 

if

 

it

 

is

 

possible,

 

pump

 

should

 

be

 

started

 

with

 

discharge

 

valve

 

partially

 

opened

 

to

 

avoid

 

overloading

 

of

 

the

 

motor.

 

The

 

pump

 

outlet

 

control

 

valve

 

may

 

need

 

to

 

be

 

adjusted

 

to

 

reach

 

the

 

requested

 

duty

 

point.

  

 

Never

 

run

 

the

 

pump

 

with

 

a

 

closed

 

suction

 

valve.

 

The

 

valves

 

located

 

on

 

suction

 

side

 

of

 

pump

 

must

 

always

 

remain

 

opened

 

while

 

pump

 

is

 

running.
