For declaration of Conformities, see appendix 1 .
introduction
This document contains specific information regarding
the safe installation, operating and maintenance of Vertical
In-Line pumps and should be read and understood by
installing, operating and maintenance personnel. The
equipment supplied has been designed and constructed to
be safe and without risk to health and safety when properly
installed, operated and maintained. The instructions
following must be strictly adhered to. If clarification is
needed on any point please contact Armstrong quoting the
equipment serial number.
important:
The use of any pump for chemical flushing will immediately
invalidate the warranty.
warning symbols
Safety instruction where an electrical hazard is
involved.
Safety instruction where non-compliance would
affect safety risk.
Safety instruction relating to safe operation of the
equipment. (at tention)
instructions for safe use
No installation of this equipment should take place unless
this document has been studied and understood. Handling,
transportation and installation of this equipment should only
be undertaken by trained personnel with proper use of lifting
equipment. See later diagrams for lifting advice. Refer to the
pump nameplate for pump speed, pressure and temperature
limitations. The limits stated must not be exceeded without
written permission from Armstrong.
temper ature
Where under normal operating conditions the limit of
68°c / 155°f (Restricted Zone) for normal touch, or
8 0°c / 176°f (Unrestricted Zone) for unintentional touch,
may be experienced, steps should be taken to minimize
contact or warn operators/users that normal operating
conditions will be exceeded. In certain cases where the
temperature of the pumped liquid exceeds the above stated
temperature levels, pump casing temperatures may exceed
10 0°c /2 12°f and not withstanding pump insulation tech-
Series 4300, 4360 and 4380
Vertical in–line pumps
niques appropriate measures must be taken to minimize risk
for operating personnel.

stor age
Pumps not immediately placed into service, or removed from
service and stored, must be properly prepared to prevent
excessive rusting. Pump port protection plates must not be
removed until the pump is ready to connect to the piping.
Rotate the shaft periodically (at least monthly) to keep rotat-
ing element free and bearings fully functional.
For long term storage, the pump must be placed in a vertical
position in a dry environment.
