Maintenance safety instructions
Hazard due to toxic and harmful fumes, gases and substances (e. g. bacteria, viruses). If the pumping station
is located in a chamber, any necessary work must always be carried out by skilled personnel only (see 3.2).
Before opening housing covers, plugs and cables (including those on floating switches) they must be safely isolated
from the power supply (de-energised). Work on electrical components may only be carried out by skilled personnel
(see 3.2).
If the floating contact is connected to an external device / connection, follow the manufacturer's operating
instructions for this device / connection.
Do not step on electrical components, cable connections or cables during maintenance work.
Drowning hazard in the system chamber. In the event of flooding, a system chamber can fill with water within a very
short time. If there is a risk of penetrating water, the inspection chamber must not be entered until there is no danger
involved.
After all maintenance work, carry out a functional test on the pumping station (see 4.7.2).
