Supplemental Instructions
for ATEX Certied Materials
7 - Solvents incompatible with the pump’s seals
The user must make sure that the seals and the hose with which the pump is equipped are
compatible with the pumped product and the products used in the cleaning of the pump.
8 - Possible leakages of pumped liquid
The possible leakages of liquid by the pump’s seals do not generate a risk of ignition as long as the
explosive atmosphere surrounding the material corresponds to the type of atmosphere for which it
was planned.
Please verify the atmosphere in contact with the pump, materials located near the pump, and
liquids being pumped are not likely to create an explosive eect for which the material was not
envisaged.
The rupture of the hose, which is a wearing part, can involve important leakage of pumped liquid. A
hose detector makes it possible to detect these leakages and will stop the pump if necessary.
9 - Checking of the lubricant level in the pump
An insucient lubricant level in the pump can generate surface temperatures higher than the
recommended limit of temperature (T) of the pump. Stop the pump and check the lubricant level
every 1000 working hours.
