4.4.3 Installing the inlet and outlet
NOTICE!
Risk of damage due to incorrectly installed pipe system!
Börger machines are robust, and are constructed for use with
high loads. However, they must not be used as an anchor point
for the pipe under any circumstances. Even at low vibrations, the
stress generated on the pipe during operation can lead to cracks
on weaker components / weld seams.
— Pipes and any additional components such as valves, check
valves etc. must not subject the machine and flange connec-
tions to stress.
— Avoid misalignment between the machine pipe connectors
and the pipe.
— All attachment parts must be supported as close to the
machine as possible according to the valid general technical
rules.
If your Bioselect was delivered without an installed feed pump
and if a feed with sufficient inlet pressure cannot be guaranteed, a
feed pump must initially be installed at a connection of the feed
unit:
Feed pump recommendation
We recommend using a Börger PL series rotary lobe pump, which
has been designed for the required flow rate of the separation
system and the necessary separation outcome.
The feed pump for the Bioselect RC needs to meet the fol-
lowing specifications to fill the Bioselect optimally:
