Safety

Note that the pumps may only be used for their intended purpose.
The pumps must not be used in areas where there is a danger of
explosion.
Components connected to the pump must be designed to
withstand the pneumatic performance of the pump.
Take care that safety regulations are observed when connecting
the pump to the electricity supply.
When the operation of the pump is interrupted by the thermal
switch, the pump will re-start automatically after cooling down.
Take all care necessary to prevent this leading to a dangerous
situation.
Specific safety instructions for the media being handled must be
observed.
When using hot media, the pneumatic pump suction and pressure
lines heat up, as do the pump head and the head insulation. Do not
touch these parts; they could burn you.
Use only original KNF spare parts.
For the purposes of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, pumps
are "partly completed machinery," and are therefore to be regarded
as not ready for use. Partly completed machinery may not be
commissioned until such time as it has been determined that the
machine in which the partly completed machinery is to be
assembled is in conformity with the provisions of the Machinery
Directive 2006/42/EC. The essential requirements of Annex I of
Directive 2006/42/EC (general principles) are applied and
observed.
The pumps conform to the EC Directive 2004/108/EC concerning
Electromagnetic Compatibility.
The following harmonized standards have been used:
DIN EN 61326-1
DIN EN 61000-3-2/3
DIN EN 60204-1
