  • Page 4 Because the cleaning requirements of the micro-diaphragm liquid pumps depend on the application, KNF is unable to guarantee cleaning options. The responsibility for cleaning the pump(s) therefore lies with the user. While the NSF/ANSI 169 standard regulates OEM products, it does not define cleaning methods for specific OEM products.

    Excessive pressures and its inherent dangers can be prevent- ed by using a bypass system with a pressure relief valve between the pressure and suction side of the pump. Further information is available from your KNF adviser (Telephone number: see first page). Pump standstill If the pump stops running, reduce the pressure in the system until it is at normal atmospheric pressure.
  • Page 16 Short start and stop cycles may adversely affect the service life of the brushed motors. If the pump is operated with short cycles in your application, please contact a KNF pump specialist for further information (Telephone number: see first page). Turning the pump on In order to guarantee that the pump can start every time it is advisable to reduce the back pressure to an acceptable level.
