3 Safety instructions

When operating the pump, the safety instructions
contained in this manual, the relevant national
accident prevention regulations and any other
service and safety instructions issued by the plant
operator are to be observed.
3.1 Hazards in the event of non-compliance
with the safety instructions
Non-compliance with the safety instructions may
produce a risk to the personnel as well as to the
environment and the machine and results in a loss
of any right to claim damages.
For example, non-compliance may involve the
following hazards:
• Failure of important functions of the ma-
chines/plant
• Failure of specified procedures of maintenance
and repair
• Exposure of people to electrical, mechanical and
chemical hazards
• Endangering the environment due to hazardous
substances being released
3.2 Unauthorized modes of operation
• Pump may not be used in potentially explosive
environments!
• Pump and discharge piping are not designed to
hold any weight and may not be used as a step
ladder.
3.3 Remaining Risk
Risk of Injury!
Risk of squeezing or crushing body parts when
installing or removing the pump exists. Proper and
secured lifting tools must be used.
Risk of burns!
The pump must have cooled down sufficiently prior
to commencing any repair, maintenance or installa-
tion.

3.4 Qualification and training of operating
personnel
The personnel responsible for operation, mainte-
nance, inspection and assembly must be adequate-
ly qualified. Scope of responsibility and supervision
of the personnel must be exactly defined by the
plant operator. If the staff does not have the neces-
sary knowledge, they must be trained and instruct-
ed, which may be performed by the machine manu-
facturer or supplier on behalf of the plant operator.
Moreover, the plant operator is to make sure that
the contents of the operating manual are fully
understood by the personnel.
3.5 Safety instructions relevant for operation
• If hot or cold machine components involve
hazards, they must be guarded against acci-
dental contact.
• Guards for moving parts (e.g. coupling) must not
be removed from the machine while in opera-
tion.
• Any leakage of hazardous (e.g. explosive, toxic,
hot) fluids (e.g. from the shaft seal) must be
drained away so as to prevent any risk to per-
sons or the environment. Statutory regulations
are to be complied with.
• Hazards resulting from electricity are to be
prevented (see for example, the VDE Specifica-
tions and the bye-laws of the local power supply
utilities).
• The pumps are only secured safely if properly
attached to the floor or top of the tank.
3.6 Safety instructions relevant for mainte-
nance, inspection and assembly work
Any work on the machine shall only be performed
when it is at a standstill, it being imperative that the
procedure for shutting down the machine described
in this manual be followed.
Pumps and pump units which convey hazardous
media must be decontaminated.
On completion of work all safety and protective
facilities must be re-installed and made operative
again.
Prior to restarting the machine, the instructions
listed under "Start up" are to be observed.
