17 Installation, Operations & Maintenance Manual
2.1 UNPACKING/INSPECTION
Units are shipped Ex Works and the title passes
to the customer when the carrier signs for receipt
of the unit. In the event that damages occur during
shipment, it is the responsibility of the customer to
notify the carrier immediately and to le a damage
claim. Carefully examine the shipping crate upon
receipt from the carrier to be sure there is no
obvious damage to the contents. Open the crate
carefully so accessory items fastened to the inside
of the crate will not be damaged or lost. Examine
all material inside the crate and check against the
packing list to be sure that all items are accounted
for and intact.
2.2 STORAGE
Short Term Storage (Less than 6 Months)
It is preferable to store the material under a shelter
in its original package to protect it from adverse
weather conditions. In condensing atmospheres,
follow the long term storage procedure.
Long Term Storage (Longer than 6 Months)
The primary consideration in storage of pump
equipment is to prevent corrosion of external and
internal components. This corrosion is caused
by natural circulation of air as temperature of the
surroundings change from day to night, day to day,
and from season to season. It is not practical to
prevent this circulation which carries water vapor
and other corrosive gasses, so it is necessary to
protect internal and external surfaces from their
effects to the greatest extent possible.
When the instructions given in this section are
completed, the equipment is to be stored in a
shelter; protected from direct exposure to weather.
The prepared equipment should be covered with a
plastic sheet or a tarpaulin, but in a manner which
will allow air circulation and prevent capture of
moisture. Equipment should be stored 12 inches
(.304 meters) or more above the ground.
If equipment is to be shipped directly from Milton
Roy into long term storage, contact Milton Roy to
arrange for long term storage preparation.
Pump Drive
1. Remove motor and flood the gearbox
compartment with a high grade lubricating
oil/rust preventative Mobile Oil Corporation
product Mobilarma 524 or approved equivalent.
Fill the compartment completely to minimize air
space. After storage, drain this oil and rell the
equipment with the recommended lubricant for
equipment commissioning.
2. Brush all unpainted metal surfaces with
multipurpose grease NLGI grade 2 or 3 or
approved equivalent. Store these unattached.
Electrical Equipment
1. Motors should be prepared in the manner
prescribed by their manufacturer. If information
is not available, dismount and store motors as
indicated in step 3 below.
2. Dismount electrical equipment (including
motors) from the pump.
3. For all electrical equipment, place packets of
Vapor Phase Corrosion Inhibitor (VPCI) inside of
the enclosure, then place the entire enclosure,
with additional packets, inside a plastic bag.
Seal the bag tightly closed. Contact Milton Roy
Service Department for recommended VPCI
materials.
