Storage
DANGER
Danger through bacterial infection!
The lifting unit collects and pumps sewage. There can be bacteria and hazardous germs in the tank. Follow these points:
- After removal, disinfect the lifting unit. Especially the inner side of the tank.
- Obey the factory regulations.
CAUTION
Property damage through water ingress in the connection cable!
Water in the connection cable destroys the cable. Water ingress in the connection cable can also cause total loss of the motor.
- Do not immerse the bare cable end in the fluid.
- Seal the bare cable end for storage.
Newly supplied lifting units can be stored for one year. For longer storage time, contact customer service.
When storing the pump, follow these points:
- Put the lifting unit securely on a hard surface and prevent it from slipping and falling over.
- Permitted storage temperature: -15 ... 60 °C (5 ... 140 °F), max. humidity: 90%, non-condensing.
- It is recommended to use frost-proof storage. Storage temperature: 5 ... 25 °C (41 ... 77 °F), relative humidity: 40 ... 50%.
- Drain the collection tank fully.
- Coil up connection cables and attach to the motor.
- Seal open ends of the connection cables and plugs in a watertight manner.
- Obey the instructions for switchgear storage.
- Tightly seal all open connections.
- Do not keep the lifting unit in spaces where welding work is carried out. The caused gases or radiation can corrode the plastic and elastomeric parts.
- Prevent the lifting unit from direct sunlight and heat. Very high heat can damage the plastic parts.
- Elastomeric parts are subject to natural brittleness. Contact customer service if storage is necessary for more than 1 year.
