Installation, hydraulic Installation, hydraulic WARNING! EX pumps in areas at risk from explosion – It is essential that metering pumps to be used in areas at risk from explosion are fitted with an appropriate safety relief valve on the outlet side of the metering pump (to protect it from excessive heating up from overloading and from impact sparks resulting from overloading trig‐...

Installation, hydraulic CAUTION! Warning of backflow Liquid ends, foot valves, back pressure valves, relief valves or spring-loaded injection valves do not constitute absolutely leak-tight sealing elements. – Use a shut-off valve, a solenoid valve or a vacuum breaker for this purpose. P_SI_0022 Fig.
Page 21
Installation, hydraulic CAUTION! Danger of the integral relief valve failing The integral relief valve no longer operates reliably with feed chemicals having a viscosity of greater than 200 mPa s. – Only use the integral relief valve with feed chemicals having a viscosity up to 200 mPa s.

This can either be in the form of a decla‐ ration of conformity from the supplier (ProMinent) for the entire unit or, with the supply of individual components, with the operator's explosion protection document.
Page 24
Installation, electrical WARNING! Danger of electric shock A mains voltage may exist inside the motor or electrical ancil‐ laries. – If the housing of the motor or electrical ancillaries has been damaged, you must disconnect it from the mains immediately. The pump must only be returned to service after an authorised repair.
Page 25
Installation, electrical Install a motor protection switch, as the motors have no fuse. Install an emergency cut-off switch or include the motor in the emer‐ gency cut-off management plan for the system. Only connect the motor to the voltage supply using a suitable cable. Key motor data can be found on the nameplate.
Page 26
Installation, electrical CAUTION! Danger resulting from unnoticed diaphragm rupture If the pump has been ordered with an electric diaphragm rup‐ ture sensor, it must also be electrically installed. – Install the enclosed diaphragm rupture sensor electri‐ cally to a suitable monitoring device. a) Diaphragm rupture sensor with switch contact The cable can be poled as required.

Start up Start up Safety notes WARNING! EX pumps in areas at risk from explosion – An appropriately skilled operative should check whether the appropriate installation information from the "Installa‐ tion " chapter has been implemented correctly. WARNING! Fire hazard with flammable media Only with combustible media: These may start to burn when combined with oxygen.
Page 29
Start up CAUTION! Possible environmental and material damage In event the red gear bleeding plug is sealed, during opera‐ tion it prevents any pressure compensation between the drive housing and the surroundings. This ensure that oil can be pushed from the drive housing. –...
Page 30
Start up When operating the integral relief valve close to the opening pressure, a minimal overflow into the overflow line can occur. Adjusting the stroke length Only adjust the stroke length when the pump is running. This is easier and also better for the pump. P_SI_0095_SW Fig.
– These measures constitute the minimum protective measurements stipulated by ProMinent. It is the duty of the operator to eliminate any other dangers identified by appropriate measures. WARNING! Fire hazard with flammable media Only with combustible media: These may start to burn when combined with oxygen.
Page 32
Maintenance WARNING! Warning of dangerous or unknown feed chemical Should a dangerous or unknown feed chemical be used: It may escape from the hydraulic components when working on the pump. – Take appropriate protective measures before working on the pump (e.g. safety glasses, safety gloves, ...). Observe the safety data sheet for the feed chemical.

Should this not work, remove dirt or swarf out of the thread and screw the diaphragm correctly onto the drive axle this time. ð If this is still unsuccessful, contact ProMinent-ProMaqua cus‐ tomer service. Place the dosing head with the screws onto the diaphragm - the suction connector must be pointing downwards in the pump's fitting position.

Repairs After a successful test, screw the transparent cover onto the dia‐ phragm rupture sensor and then continue at the top by fitting the diaphragm. Electrical diaphragm rupture sensor Press the piston of the diaphragm rupture sensor with a blunt, smooth object into the dosing head (approximately 4 mm) until the monitor triggers alarm.
Troubleshooting Troubleshooting Safety notes WARNING! EX pumps in areas at risk from explosion – Ensure correct operation in general (no leaks, unusual noises, high temperatures, unusual smells etc.), particu‐ larly of the power end and bearings. – Do not allow the pump to become hot due to a lack of oil! If oil is escaping, investigate the leak immediately and eliminate the cause.

Troubleshooting WARNING! Warning of escaping feed chemical When dosing combustible feed chemicals or in hazardous locations, under no circumstances must the second dia‐ phragm also rupture. – If the pump diaphragm rupture sensor triggers, stop the pump immediately and only operate once a new multi- layer safety diaphragm has been fitted.
