NOTE!
Behavior of the quench fluid
The level of quench fluid may not drop below the minimum indi-
cated on the level indicator.
— The quench fluid can rise to the rim of the fill hole due to its
function and depending on the operating temperature. A leak
of the mechanical seal can only be assumed if the fluid over-
flows.
— A slow and slight loss of quench fluid may occur due to evap-
oration as well as due to lubrication of the mechanical seal.
— A sudden and persistently strong or complete loss of quench
fluid in vacuum operation is indicative of a leak in the mechan-
ical seal.
ENVIRONMENT!
Danger due to incorrect handling of environmentally haz-
ardous substances!
Inappropriate handling of environmentally hazardous substances,
especially incorrect disposal, can cause significant damage to the
environment.
— Especially water-polluting materials such as grease and lubri-
cating oil must not pollute the soil or enter the sewage system
during installation, repair and maintenance work.
— These materials must be collected, stored, transported
and disposed of in suitable containers.
— When handling oil, grease and other chemical substances,
pay attention and adhere to the applicable regulations and
safety data sheets issued by the respective manufacturer
relating to storage, handling, correct use and disposal.

and the proper recycling/disposal of waste during all work
