2.4.7 Risk caused by heat
Risk of burning by touching hot surfaces. When in operation for longer periods, wastewater pumps develop a
high temperature on the housing surface. Wear protective equipment (gloves) or allow the pumps to cool down
accordingly.
2.4.8 Risk caused by unexpected pump start-up
Any pump can start up at any time if the backwater lifting station is not disconnected from the power supply.
Always have specialist staff remove the pumps and only after the system has been cleared and secured
against being switched on again unintentionally.
2.4.9 Risk of drowning in the system chamber
In the event of a flood, a system chamber can fill with water within a very short time. If there is a risk of water
entering, the inspection chamber must not be entered until there is no danger involved.
The pump must not be opened;
the pump is sealed to IP68. No humidity will enter provided the pump is installed correctly. Provide a fault
current circuit breaker
