• If hot or cold components on the product/unit lead
to hazards, measures must be taken by the cus-
tomer to prevent them from being touched.
• Guards for moving components (such as the cou-
pling) must not be removed whilst the product is
in operation.
• Leakages (e.g. from the shaft seals) of hazardous
fluids (which are explosive, toxic or hot) must be
led away so that no danger to persons or to the
environment arises. National statutory provisions
must be observed.
• Highly flammable materials should always be kept
a safe distance from the product.
• Danger from electrical current must be eliminated.
Local directives or general directives [e.g. IEC, VDE
etc.] and instructions from local energy supply
companies must be adhered to.
2.6 Safety instructions for installation and
maintenance work
The operator must ensure that all installation and
maintenance work is carried out by authorised and
qualified personnel who have sufficiently familiar-
ised themselves with the installation and operat-
ing instructions by studying them in detail.
Work on the product/unit must only be carried out
when it is at a standstill. It is mandatory that the
procedure described in the installation and oper-
ating instructions for shutting down the product/
unit is observed.
Immediately upon completing work, all safety and
protective devices must be put back in position
and/or recommissioned.
2.7 Unauthorised modification and manufacture of
spare parts
Unauthorised modification and manufacture of
spare parts will impair the safety of the product/
personnel and make void the manufacturer's dec-
larations regarding safety.
Modifications to the product are only permissible
following consultation with the manufacturer.
Original spare parts and accessories authorised by
the manufacturer ensure safety. The use of other
parts will absolve the manufacturer of liability for
any consequences arising therefrom.
2.8 Improper use
The operational reliability of the supplied product
is only guaranteed for its intended use (see
Section 4 of the installation and operating
instructions). The limit values must on no account
fall below or exceed those values specified in the
catalogue/data sheet.

3 Transport and temporary storage
The pressure-boosting system is foil-wrapped to
protect it against moisture and dust. Transport
and storage instructions applied to the packaging
must be observed.
Transport methods:
• on one or more pallets,
• in a wooden transport frame (see, for example,
Fig. 10a, 10b),
• on transport boards, or
• in a crate.
DANGER! Risk of injury!
Use approved lifting gear to transport the unit
(Fig. 10a and 10b). Ensure the stability of the
load since, with this particular pump design, the
centre of gravity is shifted to the top (top-
heavy). Connect transport slings or ropes to the
transport eyes provided (see Fig. 10a and 10b -
Position 13) or around the base frame. The pipes
are not suitable to withstand loads and should
not be used to secure loads in transit.
CAUTION! Risk of damage!
Subjecting the pipes to loads when in transit can
result in leakages!
The transport dimensions, weights and necessary
passageways and transport areas of the system
can be taken from the supplied installation plan or
other documentation.
CAUTION! Risk of detriment or damage!
The system must be protected by suitable
measures against moisture, frost and heat and
also mechanical damage!
When receiving and unpacking the pressure
boosting system and the supplied accessories,
first check the packaging for damage.
If damage is found which may have been caused
by the system having fallen or similar impacts:
• check the pressure boosting system and accesso-
ries for possible damage, and
• inform the delivery company (forwarding agent)
or our customer service, even if you do not find
any obvious damage to the system or its accesso-
ries.
After removing the packaging, store or install the
system according to the described installation
conditions (see Section Setup/installation).
