NAMEPLATE
The pump shall be identified by means of a separate name-plate permanently
affixed in a conspicuous location. The plate shall bear the manufacturer's
name, model designation, serial number if applicable, and other pertinent
information such as wattage horsepower, speed, capacity, type, direction of
rotation, etc. The plate shall be made of corrosion-resisting metal with
raised or depressed lettering and contrasting background.
2.10
INSTRUCTION PLATES
The pump shall be equipped with suitably located instruction plates,
including any warnings and cautions, describing any special and important
procedures to be followed in starting, operating, and servicing the
equipment. Plates shall be made of corrosion-resisting metal with raised
or depressed lettering and contrasting background.
2.11
GUARDS AND COVERS
Safety guards and/or covers shall be provided wherever necessary to protect
the operators from accidental contact with moving parts. Guards and covers
shall be of sheet steel, expanded metal, or another acceptable material and
removable for disassembly of the pump.

[SPARE PARTS
**************************************************************************
NOTE: Spare parts should be required if estimated
station operating hours are greater than 500 hours
per year. Spare parts should also be considered for
pumps located in remote locations and for pumps with
unusual design. Spare parts for pumping stations
having more than three pumps of identical
construction should be considered, since acquisition
of these spares will be more economical when
purchased with the pumping units. Decisions on
requiring spare parts can also be based on
furnishing spare parts for stations in remote areas
or having unusually designed pumps where parts could
take considerable time to obtain. When spare parts
are included as part of the original supply
contract, their cost would probably be half of their
cost if obtained after original construction. When
spare parts are included as part of the original
purchase of the pumping units, their cost could be
less than one half of the cost when obtained at a
later date.
Select appropriate alternate paragraphs for
subparagraphs "d" and "f", below.
**************************************************************************
The Contractor shall furnish the following spare parts:
a.
One complete replacement set of bearings, bearing shells, journal
sleeves, shaft coupling, if applicable, and seals for one main
pump.
