Operating instructions B-Series
Version 2.4, En Page 11 of 81 21-10-2005
Safety instructions during the operation of the pump:
•
The limit values of the area of application as mentioned in this manual must be respected.
•
When cold or hot parts of the pump could cause danger they must be protected against inadvertent
contact.
•
Protective devices for moving parts (e.g. shaft coupling) may not be removed during the operation
of the pump/pump unit.
•
All leaking dangerous (explosive, toxic or hot) liquids (for example originating from the
mechanical shaft seal) must be removed to prevent any risk to persons or the environment. Local
regulations must also be complied with.
•
Dangers resulting from the use of electricity must be avoided (see the standards and regulations of
the local electricity supplier).
•
Pumps with a motor output of over 11 kW may never run against a closed valve. This causes
danger of explosion.
Safety instructions during maintenance, checks and repairs:
•
Working on the pump/pump unit is only permitted when it has been put out of operation.
•
To put an installation out of use follow the procedure described in these operating instructions, for
example the machine may no longer be under pressure and it must have fully cooled.
•
Pumps and pump (units) pumping dangerous media must be cleaned and neutralised beforehand.
•
Protect the drive motor during the whole working time against both inadvertent and unauthorised
switching on.
•
When opening the pump follow all instructions for using the medium involved (for example
protective clothing, smoking ban, etc.).
•
With repairs, in the interest of safety, parts supplied by the supplier or approved by him must
always be used.
•
Modifications to the machine or the application are only possible after consultation with the
suppliers.
•
The reliability of the pump/pump unit is only guaranteed when the pump is used for the
application and in the way it was intended on delivery.
•
At the end of the activities all safety devices and protective equipment must again be installed and
made operative.
•
Before restarting the pump/pump unit read the operating instructions through.
