all times when the unit is being operated.
1.4 Special hazards
Working in temporary installations
Certain industries, such as mining or construction, have a dynamic nature and
require temporary installation of equipment. Due to the rugged nature of these
applications, normal use of electrical equipment causes wear and tear that can
result in insulation breaks, short-circuits, and exposed wires. To maximize safety
when using the unit in rugged applications, the following conditions must be
met:
• If electrical cables must be located such that they are at risk of being run
over by heavy equipment, then provide mechanical protection to prevent
physical damage to the cables.
• Visually inspect electrical equipment before use. Remove from service any
equipment with exposed wires or visible damage.
• Use ground-fault circuit interrupters on all receptacles, or have an assured
equipment grounding conductor program.
Biological hazards
The product is designed for use in liquids that can be hazardous to your health.
Observe these rules when you work with the product:

2 Transportation and Storage
2.1 Inspect the delivery
2.1.1 Inspect the package
1. Inspect the package for damaged or missing items upon delivery.
2. Note any damaged or missing items on the receipt and freight bill.
3. File a claim with the shipping company if anything is out of order.
If the product has been picked up at a distributor, make a claim directly to the
distributor.
2.1.2 Inspect the unit
1. Remove packing materials from the product.
Dispose of all packing materials in accordance with local regulations.
2. Inspect the product to determine if any parts have been damaged or are
missing.
3. If applicable, unfasten the product by removing any screws, bolts, or straps.
For your personal safety, be careful when you handle nails and straps.
4. Contact a sales representative if there is any issue.
2.2 Transportation guidelines
Precautions
DANGER: Crush Hazard
Moving parts can entangle or crush. Always disconnect and lock out power
before servicing to prevent unexpected startup. Failure to do so could result in
death or serious injury.
Position and fastening
The unit can be transported either horizontally or vertically. Make sure that the
unit is securely fastened during transportation, and cannot roll or fall over.
2.2.1 Lifting
Always inspect the lifting equipment and tackle before starting any work.
WARNING: Crush Hazard
1) Always lift the unit by its designated lifting points. 2) Use suitable lifting
equipment and ensure that the product is properly harnessed. 3) Wear personal
protective equipment. 4) Stay clear of cables and suspended loads.
6 8125.230 Milli Installation, Operation, and Maintenance
2 Transportation and Storage
NOTICE:
Never lift the unit by its cables or hose.
2.3 Temperature ranges for transportation, handling and storage
Handling at freezing temperature
At temperatures below freezing, the product and all installation equipment,
including the lifting gear, must be handled with extreme care.
Make sure that the product is warmed up to a temperature above the freezing
point before starting up. Avoid rotating the impeller/propeller by hand at
temperatures below the freezing point. The recommended method to warm the
unit up is to submerge it in the liquid which will be pumped or mixed.
NOTICE:
Never use a naked flame to thaw the unit.
Unit in as-delivered condition
If the unit is still in the condition in which it left the factory - all packing
materials are undisturbed - then the acceptable temperature range during
transportation, handling and storage is: –50°C (–58ºF) to +60°C (+140ºF).
If the unit has been exposed to freezing temperatures, then allow it to reach the
ambient temperature of the sump before operating.
Lifting the unit out of liquid
The unit is normally protected from freezing while operating or immersed in
liquid, but the impeller/propeller and the shaft seal may freeze if the unit is lifted
out of the liquid into a surrounding temperature below freezing.
Follow these guidelines to avoid freezing damage:
1. Empty all pumped liquid, if applicable.
2. Check all liquids used for lubrication or cooling, both oil and water-glycol
mixtures, for the presence of unacceptable amounts of water. Change if
needed.
Water-glycol mixtures: Units equipped with an internal closed-loop cooling
system are filled with a mixture of water and 30% glycol. This mixture remains a
flowing liquid at temperatures down to –13°C (9°F). Below –13°C (9°F), the
viscosity increases such that the glycol mixture will lose its flow properties.
However, the glycol-water mixture will not solidify completely and thus cannot
harm the product.
2.4 Storage guidelines
Storage location
The product must be stored in a covered and dry location free from heat, dirt,
and vibrations.
NOTICE:
Protect the product against humidity, heat sources, and mechanical damage.
NOTICE:
Do not place heavy weights on the packed product.
Long-term storage
If the unit is stored more than six months, then the following apply:
8125.230 Milli Installation, Operation, and Maintenance 7
2 Transportation and Storage
• Before operating the unit after storage, it must be inspected with special
attention to the seals and the cable entry.
• The impeller/propeller must be rotated every other month to prevent the
seals from sticking together.

3.3.1 Level regulators
About level regulators
Starting and stopping the pump at different water levels can be manual or
automatic. If automatic start and stop is required, a level regulator can be
ordered (as an option). The option is only available for standard pumps.
Features
Below are some of the features of the level regulators:
• The level regulator can be set at different operating levels by adjusting the
length of cable.
• A clamping bracket situated at the lifting handle holds the level regulator
cable in place.
• If continuous pumping is required, the level regulator can be placed in a
special rubber bracket on the discharge connection to eliminate the level
regulator function.
