7.1 Basic installation notes
CAUTION!
Danger resulting from rupturing hydraulic components
Hydraulic components can rupture if the maximum permis‐
sible operating pressure is exceeded.
– Never allow the metering pump to run against a closed
shut-off device.
– With metering pumps without integral relief valve: Install
a relief valve in the discharge line.
CAUTION!
Hazardous feed chemicals can escape
With hazardous feed chemicals: Hazardous feed chemical
can leak out when using conventional bleeding procedures
with metering pumps.
– Install a bleed line with a return into the storage tank.
Shorten the return line so that it does not dip into the feed chemical
in the storage tank.
