Pentair SHURFLO 5059 series User Manual

"Intermittent Duty" is defined as: operated and/or frequent-
ly started within a period of time that would cause the
motor to reach its maximum thermal limits. Once the
maximum thermal limit is obtained, the motor must be
allowed to return to ambient temperature before resuming
operation.
DO NOT use to pump flammable liquids. Never operate the
pump in an explosive environment. Arcing from the motor
brushes, switch or excessive heat from an improperly
cycled motor may cause an explosion.
DO NOT assume fluid compatibility. If the fluid is improp-
erly matched to the pump’s elastomers, a leak may occur.
Pumps used to transfer hazardous or hot (max. tempera-
ture 120°F [49°C] viton only) chemicals must be in a
vented area to guard against the possibility of injury due
to harmful or explosive liquid/vapors.
DO NOT operate the pump at pressures which cause the
motor to exceed the amperes rating indicated on the name
plate. Various pump models are equipped with thermal
breakers to interrupt operation due to excessive heat.
Once the temperature of the motor is within proper limits,
it will automatically reset, and the pump will start
operation without warning.
To prevent electrical shock, disconnect power before
initiating any work. In the case of pump failure, the motor
housing and/or the pumped fluid may carry high voltage to
components normally considered safe.

SHURflo offers various pump models for different applications. The information
outlined by this manual is general and not specific to all 5059 series pumps.
Be certain the pump’s materials will be compatible with the fluid being pumped.
The 5059 series pumps are intended for intermittent or continuous duty when
the proper operating criteria are met. Product data sheets outlining specific
thermal limits, load, flow curves, and other technical information for a particular
model are available. If unsure of the chemical compatibility with a given elas-
tomer or the motors intended design, please call SHURflo for assistance.
General Safety Information
Notes are used to notify of installation, operation, or
maintenance information that is important but not safety
related.
Caution is used to indicate the presence of a hazard,
which will or may cause minor injury or property damage
if the notice is ignored.
Warning denotes that a potential hazard exists and indi-
cates procedures that must be followed exactly to either
eliminate or reduce the hazard, and to avoid serious
personal injury, or prevent future safety problems with the
product.
Danger is used to indicate the presence of a hazard that
will result in severe personal injury, death, or property
damage if the notice is ignored.
Hazardous Substance Alert
1. Always drain and flush pump before servicing or disassem-
bling for any reason (see instructions).
2. Always drain and flush pump prior to returning unit for repair.
3. Never store pumps containing hazardous chemicals.
4. Before returning pump for service/repair, drain out all liquids
and flush unit with neutralizing liquid. Then, drain the pump.
Attach tag or include written notice certifying that this has
been done.
It is illegal to ship or transport any hazardous chemicals with-
out United States Environmental Protection Agency Licensing.
