Storage Preparation
Goulds DWT Pumps require proper preparation for
storage and regular maintenance during storage. The
pump shall be considered in storage when it has been
delivered to the job site and is awaiting installation.
Preferably, the storage area shall be paved, well drained
and free from fl ooding, and be indoors whenever
possible.
Weatherproof coverings used for outdoor storage shall be
fl ame resistant type sheeting or tarpaulins. They shall be
placed so as to provide good drainage and air circulation
and shall be tied down to protect from wind damage.
Storage area shall be maintained in a clean condition at
all times.
Pumps and/or component parts shall be placed on skids,
pallets, or shoring to permit good air circulation.
Pumps and/or component parts shall be sorted so as to
permit ready access for inspection and/or maintenance
without excessive handling.
Pumps and/or component parts stacked during storage
shall be arranged so that the racks, containers, or crates
bear full weight without distortion of pumps or parts.
Identifi cation markings must be readily visible. Any
cover removed for internal access shall be replaced
immediately.
Pump and bowl assembly shafting shall be rotated
counter clockwise, as a minimum, once a month. Shaft
shall not be left in the same previous position, nor in the
extreme raised or lowered lateral position. Shaft should
rotate freely.

contact your Goulds Pumps representative.
Recommended Storage Procedures

even temperature 10º F (6º C) or more above the dew
point with relative humidity less than 50% and little or
no dust. (If these requirements can not be met the pump
is to be considered in uncontrolled storage.)
For uncontrolled storage periods of 6 months or less,
the pump is to be inspected periodically to insure that all
preservatives are intact.
All pipe threads and fl anged pipe covers are to be sealed
with tape.
The pump must not be stored closer than six inches
