  • Page 14: Performance

    2.0 Performance • Operation of the pump outside its specified operating range and unauthorised modes of operation may result in the specified temperature limits being exceeded. See IM for temperature limits. • In order to remove the heat generated by hydraulic and mechanical friction inside the pump, it must be assured that there is always a sufficient minimum flow through the pump.
  • Page 15: Installation

    3.0 Installation Checks Before installation, the equipment must be checked. • Ensure the equipment data (as indicated on nameplate, documentation etc.) corres- ponds to the explosive atmosphere zone, category and system requirements. • Possible damage: the installed equipment must be undamaged and must have been properly stored before installation (for maximum 3 years).
  • Page 16: Direction Of Rotation

    • Follow the separate instructions for gear and motor drive and for explosion protected shaft couplings. • When using a belt drive, ensure the belts have sufficient electrical conductivity to avoid electrostatic loads. Use only belts with electrical leakage resistance lower than 10 and avoid using aluminium or light metal pulleys containing more than 7.5% magnesium.

  • Page 18: Commissioning

    4.0 Commissioning General Take note that the TopGear pump is a Positive Displacement pump and procedures may often differ from procedures commonly used for centrifugal pumps. Follow the instructions and checklist given in the IM and the separate instructions for gear and motor drives.
  • Page 19: Maintenance

    5.0 Maintenance General • Pumps certified for ‘Explosion protection’ need maintenance and precaution to prevent risks of ignition due to malfunction and unacceptable wear. • Follow the Maintenance Instructions given in the Instruction Manual (IM). Follow the separate instructions for gear and motor drive as well. •...
  • Page 20: Magnetic Coupling

    For a non-pressurised quench: • Check the level in the supply reservoir; • Check the temperature of the quench liquid; • Check the condition of the quench liquid by inspection: change the quench liquid in case it is heavily contaminated with leaking fluid. Note: Frequent contamination is an indication of an unacceptable shaft seal leakage, which should be repaired.
