7. Maintenance
During normal application and operation, the controller LC/D 107
is maintenance-free.
However, it is advisable to carry out minor checks of the
LC/D 107 controller, pump pits, tanks, pumps, etc. at suitable
intervals. These checks should be carried out by authorized
personnel.
The checks should include the following among other things:
• Check the gaskets of the LC/D 107 cabinet front and those of
the Pg cable entries.
• Check the cable entries for the explosion hazard area.
• Check for possible deposits/sludge build-up in the pump pit/
tank. Sludge may settle in areas with almost stagnant liquid.
• Check for beginning sludge build-up around the level pickups.
• Check for possible blockage/leaks in the pneumatic tube
between the level pickup and the LC/D 107.
• Check for possible blockage on the suction side of the
pump(s). A blockage will typically be a large solid object.
• If the LC/D 107 has been installed in a particularly aggressive
environment, it is advisable to check the motor protection
contacts in order to identify possible chemical attack resulting
in corrosion. In typical installations, the motor protection
contacts will work for several years and do not require any
inspection.
Note: The list above is not complete. LC/D 107 may be installed
in systems, installations and/or environments which require
thorough and regular maintenance.

Warning
Before starting any work on pumps used to pump
liquids which could be constituted as being
hazardous to health, thorough cleaning/venting of
pumps, pits, etc. must be carried out according to
local regulations.
Before making any connections in the LC/D 107 or
work on pumps, pits, etc., it must be ensured that the
electricity supply has been switched off and that it
cannot be accidentally switched on.
