3.6 Environment conditions
• Stationary Lubrigun Pumps / Pump units are
designed for use in closed areas protecting the
equipment against weather; in the case of mobile
equipment being used outdoors, the equipment must
be stored safely protected.
Contamination of the material to be pumped must be
avoided during operation as well as storage.
• Ambient temperature
⇒ Refer to ‘Technical Data’ of the pump.
If the equipment is operated at ambient tempe-
ratures lower than room temperature, it must be
ensured that pumpability of the material is not
restricted. That also concerns the storage of
material.
The user must take care for pumpability of the
material.
