5 ERECTION WORK and TRANSPORT


5.1 General
This chapter describes certain steps for transport, storage and installation
of the pump, which may be the responsibility of the operator.
The description does not include preliminary works assembly carried out
by ANDRITZ.

5.2 Safety instructions

Do not disregard the safety regulations.


If the safety regulations are disregarded, this may cause a risk to life
and limb and damage to the machine or its components.
DANGER
All safety instructions in this section must be strictly observed!

General safety All applicable accident prevention regulations must be observed.


instructions
Do not exceed permissible crane loads and weights on lifting gear and
ropes/shackles. Secure loads to prevent them from falling.
Do not step or walk below suspended loads! Standing below suspended
loads can have fatal consequences and thus is strictly forbidden!
All general safety measures applicable to welding equipment and work
must be observed. The safety measures must take account of the
demands on this special welding equipment.

Qualification of Transport and unloading of the machine are to be carried out by


personnel personnel specially familiar with such work.
assigned
Personnel assigned to operate lifting gear and conveying equipment must
have the required national qualifications.
Welders carrying out welding work must have the required national
qualifications.
Erection work may only be carried out by trained, skilled personnel.

5.3 Transportation

During transport or loading/unloading there is a risk to life and limb


from falling machine components and also a danger that machine
components may be damaged.
DANGER
Do not lift machine and transport crates except at the points marked
for lifting by crane or forklift!
If the entire component is lifted and there are several different types
of lifting lug available, personnel should only use suitable lugs
(according to the transport sketch) for the work in hand.
Do not step or walk below suspended loads!

Delivery Machine components and auxiliary materials are packed in crates.


Transport sizes and weights are stated in the shipping documents.
Largest supply weights:
.../TECHNICAL DATA

Acceptance • Check whether supply is complete (against shipping documents and


packing lists) and in perfect condition.
• In the event of transport damage or short supply, do not accept goods,
but notify forwarder and the ANDRITZ shipping department
accordingly.
• If there is a hidden loss or defect, notify the forwarder and the
ANDRITZ shipping department within two weeks of receiving the
goods.

5.4 Storage
The following instructions must be observed if the system is not to be
installed immediately:
• Please inform the ANDRITZ shipping department.
• Provide weather protection for stored machine components. In
particular, avoid wide variations in temperature and ensure that the

5.5 General

General

Disregarding the sequence plan and the installation instructions


may result in hazardous situations causing a danger to life and limb,
as well as machine damage.
WARNING
The sequence of erection work is important and must be strictly
observed!

Completion of the various steps must be documented in the certificate of


completion of erection work.

The sequence of erection work is shown in step-by-step tables. The


individual activities are numbered according to the sequence in which
they are to be performed.

Required The following supplementary documentation must be available at the


documentation at beginning of installation work:
installation site
• Foundation and arrangement drawing
• Assembly drawings
• Documentation on electrical, measuring and control equipment
• Packing lists for each individual consignment

Preparations Foundation
Foundation prepared according to the ANDRITZ foundation plan.
The following preparations have to be made to the foundation prior to
erecting the equipment:
• Mark axes and elevations on the foundation.
• Check the workmanship of the foundation before beginning erection
work.

Preservation
Corrodible machine parts are protected with "Cortec VCI 369"
preservative grease.
The preservative grease need not be removed.

Welding

Risk of electric shock when performing welding work.


When using electric welding equipment, check the following:
DANGER • The welding equipment must be installed and earthed according
to local standards.
• Personnel must be isolated against earthing and the workpiece.
Live parts or electrodes must not be touched with bare hands or
when protective apparel is wet.

Eyes and hands may be injured when performing welding work.


UV and IR light can cause eye and skin burns.
DANGER Protect eyes and body. Wear protective hard hat with filter unit and
protective garments.
Other workers in the vicinity must be protected by protective
walls/curtains.

5.6 Erection of the parts cast in concrete

Parts may fall during transport on site.


Do not lift machine parts except at the points marked for lifting by
crane or forklift!
DANGER
Do not step or walk below suspended loads!

Parts of the body may be trapped or crushed during installation


work.
Do not place your hand below suspended loads.
DANGER
Wear your personal protective apparel.

Corundum coating The torque is transferred from the impeller to the shaft by adherence and
on the pump shaft pre-tensioned bolts. In order to increase the friction coefficient, the contact
surface on the flange of the pump shaft is coated with corundum.

Step Activity
1 Clean and degrease contact surfaces at the impeller and the
shaft
2 Use a spray gun with a nozzle diameter of 1.8 - 2 mm to apply
the corundum coating.
3 Prepare a mixture of three parts zapon varnish (nitrocellulose
lacquer) to one part corundum powder (silicon carbide, grain
size 160 - 180 microns) suitable for spraying.
4 Test the mixture by spraying it very thinly onto an upright,
bright-finish metal plate.

Keep modifying the mixing proportions and spray method until


the corundum powder grains are lying evenly beside one
another; at least 60% of the surface must be covered by the
corundum powder.

Avoid accumulations of powder grains and uncoated


surface areas!
5 Cover the bore holes (a) in the coupling bolts, the centering
surface (b) and the O-ring grooves (c).
6 Spray the supporting ring surface (x) at the flange of the pump
shaft.

The coating should be sprayed on in one single process.


Avoid cross-coating. The spraying distance should be 250 -
300 mm. Air pressure 1.8 - 2 bar.
7 Do not attach the shaft to the impeller until the coating has
completely hardened.

The hardening time is approximately three hours at a room


temperature of 20° C.

The pipework must be mounted such that it does not stress the
machine during operation (e.g. by heat expansion of the pipes).

Instruments • Control units and instruments must be installed according to the


control documentation provided by ANDRITZ.

Electrical • Complete electrical installation work must be performed according to


equipment electrical documentation provided by ANDRITZ.
