EP-200 SERIES PUMP INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL

SECTION 2: INSTALLER RESPONSIBILITY

The installer is responsible for the following:

•To install the pump and electrical supplies, in accordance with applicable specifications and codes. Roberts-Gordon recommends the installer contact a local building inspector or Fire Marshal for guidance.

•To use the information given in a layout drawing and in the manual together with the cited codes and regulations to perform the installation.

•To furnish all needed materials not furnished as standard equipment.

•To plan location of supports.

•To provide access to pump for servicing on all sides and for pump removal.

•To provide the owner with a copy of this installa- tion, operation and service manual.

•To never use pump or pump platform as support for ladder or other access equipment and never hang or suspend anything from pump or pump platform.

•To safely and adequately install pump using materials with a minimal working load of 400 lb (181 kg).

2.1 Corrosive Chemicals

CAUTION

Do not use heater and pump in an area containing corrosive chemicals.

Avoid the use of corrosive chemicals to ensure a longer life of the pump, burner, tubing and other parts.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in property damage.

Roberts-Gordon cannot be responsible for ensuring that all appropriate safety measures are undertaken prior to installation; this is entirely the responsibility of the installer. It is essential that the contractor, the sub-contractor, or the owner identifies the presence of combustible materials, corrosive chemicals or halogenated hydrocarbons* anywhere in the premises.

*Halogenated Hydrocarbons are a family of chemical com- pounds characterized by the presence of halogen elements (flu- orine, chlorine, bromine, etc.). These compounds are frequently used in refrigerants, cleaning agents, solvents, etc. If these compounds enter the air supply of the burner, the life span of the heater components will be greatly reduced. An outside air supply must be provided to the burners whenever the presence

of these compounds is suspected. Warranty will be invalid if the heater is exposed to halogenated hydrocarbons.

2.2 National Standards and Applicable Codes

All Appliances must be installed in accordance with the latest revision of the applicable standards and national codes. This refers also to the electric, gas and venting installation. Note: Additional standards for installations in Public Garages, Aircraft Hangars, etc. may be applicable.

SECTION 3: UNPACKING THE PUMP 3.1 Open Shipping Cartons

Open cartons and remove packing inserts. Carefully remove pump components from the cartons. Lift assembly by gripping metal pump frame. Two people are required (weight 112 lb, 51 kg). This pump has been tested prior to packing. The impeller was dynamically balanced before assembly and requires care in handling to avoid damage.

WARNING

Severe Injury Hazard

Install pump scroll and inlet assembly before operating high speed rotating impeller.

Keep hands, fingers and clothing away from inlet and outlet.

Install and operate equipment according to installation manual.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or severe injury.
