  • Page 5: General

    Operating instructions 1. General 1.1 Foreword This product complies with the safety requirements of EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC. The staff employed on installation, operation, inspection and maintenance must be able to prove that they know about the relevant accident prevention regulations and that they are suitably qualified for this work.
  • Page 6: Safety Regulations

    Operating instructions In order for the guarantee to apply, it is essential that the pump or pump unit is used in accordance with the operating conditions given on the type plate, confirmation of order and in the Data Sheet. This applies particularly for the endurance of the materials and smooth running of the pump and shaft sealing.
  • Page 7: Safety Instructions For The Operator

    Operating instructions Safety instructions for the operator • Depending on the operating conditions, wear and tear, corrosion or age will limit the working life of the pump/pump unit, and its specified characteristics. The operator must ensure that regular inspection and maintenance are carried out so that all parts are replaced in good time which would otherwise endanger the safe operation of the system.
  • Page 8: Speed, Pressure, Temperature

    Operating instructions Speed, Pressure, Temperature Suitable safety measures must be taken at the plant to ensure that the speed, pressure and temperature of the pump and the shaft sealing do not exceed the limit values given in the Data Sheet. The given admission pressures (system pressures) must also be sufficiently high. In addition, the pump must be protected against pressure surges such as can be caused by switching off the plant quickly (e.g.
  • Page 9: Back Flow

    Operating instructions Back flow In systems where pumps are operating in closed circuits under pressure (gas cushions, steam pressure), the pressure of the gas cushion must not be reduced via the pump, since the back flow speed may be much higher than the operating speed, which would destroy the unit. 2.

  • Page 12: Installation And Alignment Of Coupling

    Operating instructions To prevent vibrations being transmitted to adjoining components, the foundation should be laid on a suitable insulating base (panels providing insulation against structure-borne sound or vibration panels). Please The size of these insulating panels will vary, depending on circumstances, and note should therefore be determined by an experienced specialist..
