T
hese precisely distilled fluids (100 % solvent refined neutral
paraffinic oil) deliver lower base pressure capability, faster pump-
down cycles, and reduced maintenance requirements on both the
pump and the fluid.
It is absolutely necessary to continue using the lubricants initially
used to fill the tank. If this is not possible for organizational or
business reasons, use only products with the same characteristics as
the previous oils.
Only use of lubricants of suitable quality will guarantee safe
operation of the pumps.
CAUTION!
Mineral oils and the PFPE oil are incompatible. To change from one type to
another, the pump must be stripped down completely and all parts washed
carefully to eliminate all oil residues.
If you expect to have to use other lubricants, first find out if the two
products are compatible. In cases of doubt, the lubricant used up to
that time must be flushed out by way of a pump flushing procedure.
CAUTION!
To avoid the risk of contaminating the oil, absolute cleanliness of the pump and
surrounding area must be ensured during the lubrication procedures.
