ƒ The manual contains basic instructions which must be
observed during installation, operation and mainte-
nance. Before installation and start-up, the manual
should be carefully read by the person in charge of the
installation. The manual should also be read by all other
technical personnel/operators and should be available at
the installation site at all times.
ƒ Personnel qualifications and training – All person-
nel for the operation, maintenance, inspection and
installation must be fully qualified to perform that type
of job. Responsibility, competence and the supervision
of such personnel must be strictly regulated by the
operator. Should the available personnel be lacking
the necessary qualification, they must be trained and
instructed accordingly. If necessary, the operator may
request the manufacturer/supplier to provide such
training. Furthermore the operator/user must make sure
that the personnel fully understand the contents of the
manual.
ƒ Dangers of ignoring the safety symbols – Ignoring
the safety directions and symbols may pose a danger to
humans as well as to the environment and the equip-
ment itself. Non-observance may void any warranties.
Non-observance of safety directions and symbols may
for example entail the following: Failure of important
functions of the equipment/plant; failure of prescribed
methods for maintenance and repair; danger to persons
through electrical, mechanical and chemical effects; dan-
ger to the environment because of leakage of hazardous
material; danger of damage to equipment and buildings.
ƒ Safety-oriented operation – The safety directions
contained in the manual, existing national regulations
for the prevention of accidents as well as internal
guidelines and safety-regulations for the operator and
user must be observed at all times.
ƒ General safety directions for the operator/user –
If hot or cold equipment parts pose a danger then they
must be protected by the operator/user against contact
with people. Protective covers for moving parts (e.g.
couplings) must not be removed when the equipment
is running. Leaks (e.g. at the shaft seal) of hazardous
pumping media (e.g. explosive, toxic, hot liquids) must
be disposed of in such a way that any danger to person-
nel and the environment is removed. All government
and local regulations must be observed at all times. Any
danger to persons from electrical energy must be elimi-
nated by using good installation practices and working
to local regulations (e.g. VDE in Germany).

ƒ Safety directions for maintenance, inspection
and assembly work – It is the user's responsibil-
ity to make sure that all maintenance, inspection and
assembly work is performed exclusively by authorized

careful study of the Operating Instructions. The accident
prevention regulations must be observed. All work on
the equipment should be done when it is not opera-
tional and ideally electrically isolated. The sequence for
shutting the equipment down is described in the manual
and must be strictly observed. Pumps or pump units
handling hazardous liquids must be decontaminated.
Immediately upon completion of the work, all safety and
protective equipment must be restored and activated.
Before restarting the equipment, all points contained in
chapter "Initial start-up" must be observed.
ƒ Unauthorized changes and manufacturing of
spare parts – Any conversion of or changes to the
equipment may only be undertaken after consulting
the manufacturer. Original spare parts and accessories
authorized by the manufacturer guarantee operational
safety. Using non-authorized parts may void any liability
on the part of the manufacturer.
ƒ Unauthorized operation – The operational safety
of the equipment delivered is only guaranteed if the
equipment is used in accordance with the directions
contained in this manual. Limits stated in the data
sheets may not be exceeded under any circumstances.
