packaging.
1. Spray-coat the inside wall of the pump casing and, in particular, the impeller
clearance areas with a preservative.
2. Spray the preservative through the suction and discharge nozzles.
It is advisable to then close the pump nozzles (e.g. with plastic caps or similar).
NOTE
Observe the manufacturer's instructions for application/removal of the preservative.

1. Drain the pump properly. (ð Section 7.3, Page 106)
2. Flush and clean the pump, particularly if it has been used for handling noxious,
explosive, hot or other hazardous fluids.
3. If the pump has handled fluids whose residues could lead to corrosion damage
in the presence of atmospheric humidity or could ignite upon contact with
oxygen, the pump must also be neutralised, and anhydrous inert gas must be
blown through the pump to ensure drying.
