3.2 Transport for installation/dismant-
ling purposes
Installation and operating instructions • Wilo-Atmos BST • Ed.01/2023-07
Existing regulations for the prevention of accidents must be followed!
WARNING
Risk of injury from a lack of protective equipment!
Danger of (serious) injuries during work. Wear the following protective
equipment:
• Safety gloves for protection against cuts
• Safety shoes
• Safety helmet must be worn if lifting accessories are used!
WARNING
Risk of personal injury!
Incorrect transport can lead to personal injury!
• Unload boxes, lathed spaces, pallets or cartons, depending on the size
and construction, with forklift trucks or with slings.
• Always lift heavy parts of more than 30 kg with hoisting gear that is in
accordance with local regulations.
– The bearing capacity has to be adapted to the weight!
• Transport the pump using approved lifting gear (block and tackle,
crane etc.). Lifting gear must be attached to the pump flanges and, if
necessary, to the outer motor diameter.
– Securing against slipping is required for this!
• When lifting machines or parts with eyelets, only use load hooks or
shackles that are in accordance with local safety regulations.
• The transport lugs on the motor are only for transporting the motor.
They are not approved for transporting the complete pump.
• If load chains or ropes are put over sharp edges, a guard has to be
used or they have to be put through the eyelets.
• When using a block and tackle or similar hoisting gear, make sure that
the load is lifted vertically.
• Prevent the suspended load from swinging.
– Swinging can be avoided by using a second block and tackle. The
direction of pull of both block and tackles must be less than 30° to
the vertical.
• Never subject load hooks, eyelets or shackles to bending forces - their
load axes have to be in the direction of the tractive forces!
• When lifting, make sure that the load limit of a load rope is reduced
for diagonal pulling.
– The safety and effectiveness of a stranding is best ensured when
all load-bearing elements are loaded in the vertical direction to the
greatest extent possible. If required, use a lifting arm which can be
attached vertically to the load rope.
• Set up a safety zone in such a way that there is no danger if the load
or a part of the load slips or the hoisting gear breaks or tears.
• Never leave a load longer than necessary in a suspended position! En-
sure there is no danger to personnel when accelerating and slowing
down during the lifting procedure.
