It should be understood that Flowserve does not accept any
liability for instances of damage and/or malfunctioning incurred
through non-adherence to these installation instructions.
4. Transport, Storage
The mechanical seal and related equipment maust be transported and
stored in the unopened, original shipping box. The warehouse in which
the mechanical seals and related equipment are stored must be dry and
free of dust. Avoid exposing equipment to large temperature fluctua-
tions and radiation.
Parts or complete mechanical seals that have been dropped or other-
wise have been subjected to heavy impacts during transport must not
be installed. An inspection by Flowserve or its appointed representative
is strongly advised.
If the machine is to be preserved with integrated mechanical
seals the preserving medium must not impair the functions of the
mechanical seals by e.g. fouling of the seal faces, hardening, or
swelling the secondary seals.
After a storage period of 3 years the mechanical seal must be inspected
for its "as new" properties. This applies in particular to the seal faces
and secondary sealing elements. An inspection by Flowserve becomes
necessary.
The mechanical seal can in principle be transported with suitable
means like lifting accessories.
