11 Maintenance
CAUTION
Metering pumps must only be maintained by technically competent and authorized
persons.
)
NOTE
The maintenance interval is quarterly. Shorter intervals are recommended in the event of
heavy loads (e.g. continuous use).
The following inspections are recommended:
# suction pipes and pressure pipes for leak-free connections
# suction valve and pressure valve (chapter 11.1
, Fig. 11.1) for dirt and impermeability.
# discharge connection (chapter 5
, Fig. 5.1) on the pump head (for diaphragm breakage).
# correct metering
# union nut (chapter 7.1.2
, Fig. 7.6 and chapter 7.1.3, Fig. 7.7)
# metering head screws (chapter 11.2
, Fig. 11.3, Pos. 2) (stable seat, 3 - 4 Nm)
)
NOTE
The life of the diaphragm depends on the:
backpressure, operating temperature and metering medium.
It is recommended to inspect the diaphragm more frequently in extreme operating
conditions or if abrasive substances are metered.
