Recirculation pumps: All pumps and pump motors should be taken down
and stored indoors (pumps and motors may be stored fully assembled). Then,
every month, turn pump impeller shaft to evenly distribute lubricant to the
bearing parts.
Belts: Properly stored belts will retain their properties unchanged for several
years. Under unfavorable storage conditions and with improper handling, dete-
rioration of their physical properties will result. These changes can be caused,
for example, oxidation, ozone, extreme temperatures, light, damp or solvents.
It should be ensured that belts are stored stress free, which is to say without
tension, pressure or other causes of deformation, as strain causes permanent
deformation and failure due to fatigue, as well as cracking. If, for reasons of
space, they are stored suspended, the diameter of the bar from which they
are suspended must be equal to at least 10 times the height of the belt.
The belts may not be stored for longer than 3 month in an open,
uncontrolled environment.
Storage Area
The storage area must be dry and dust-free. Belts may not be kept
together with chemicals, solvents, fuels, lubricants, acids, etc.
Temperature
Belts should be shielded from Radiators and their pipes. The distance
between radiators and stored equipment must be at least 10 feet.
Light
Belts should be protected from light, particularly from direct sunlight
and strong artificial light with high ultraviolet content (formation of
ozone), such as for example fluorescent tubes installed in open fixtures.
Ideally, room lighting should be normal incandescent bulbs.
Ozone
To counteract the damaging effect of ozone, the storage areas may
not contain any form of ozone generating equipment, such as for
example fluorescent light sources, mercury vapor lamps or electrical
high voltage devices. Combustion gases and vapors, which may lead
to ozone formation due to chemical processes, must be avoided or
removed.
Dampness
Damp storage areas are quite unsuitable. It should be ensured that no
condensation occurs. The relative humid should be below 65 %.
