  • Page 2: Description, Operating Conditions

    Description, Operating Conditions Diaphragm Vacuum Pumps UN86_.16I Description, Operating Conditions KNF pumps in the N 086.16 range transfer, evacuate and compress 100% oil-free. In operation they are gas-tight (leak rate: 6 x 10 mbar x l/sec), and maintenance-free. They have temperature-resistant pump heads for media temperatures up to 240 °C.
  • Page 3: Safety

    When using hot media, the pneumatic pump suction and pressure lines heat up, as does the pump head. Do not touch these parts; they could burn you. Use only original KNF spare parts. EC Directives / Standards For the purposes of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, pumps are “partly completed machinery,”...
  • Page 4 Safety Diaphragm Vacuum Pumps UN86_.16I In addition a protection against mechanical parts in motion and hot parts, if existing, has to be provided when mounting. The pumps conform to the EC Directive 201/65/EU (RoHS2). The pumps conform to the EC Directive 2004/108/EC concerning Electromagnetic Compatibility.
  • Page 5: Installation
