  • Page 3: Introduction

    Storage and long-term usage In general the ALMATEC pump is delivered operational and packaged. If the unit is not installed right away, proper storage conditions are important for a trouble free operation later. The pump has to be protected from wetness, coldness, dirtying, UV-radiation and mechanical influences.
  • Page 4: Code System

    EU machinery directive, the harmonized standards, European standards and the respective national standards. Hence the operator has to verify whether the ALMATEC pump manufactured and delivered properly according to the customers order meets the mentioned requirements.
  • Page 5: Operation In Explosion Proof Areas

    For pumping flammable liquids or in Ex-areas, only pumps with housing parts and internals made of conductive plastic may be used. Air-operated diaphragm pumps of the E series with housing codes F (PE conductive) and U (PTFE conductive) meet this requirement. They must generally be grounded via a connection on the central housing [4].
  • Page 6 Category G Inside the pump: Category G Conductive ALMATEC air-operated diaphragm pumps may generally be used in explosion group IIC at the installation site (potentially explosive area outside the pump), since the solid housings are made of dissipative materials and the entire pump is grounded.
  • Page 7: Technical Data

    These technical data refer to ALMATEC E-Series pumps without optional equipment. Performance data are in accordance with DIN EN ISO 9906. The data refer to water (20°C) without using of a...
  • Page 8: Recommended Installation

    Recommended installation Installation, operation and maintenance UV-radiation can damage the housing parts of pumps made of PE. In general, the pump has to be connected load free. The flange connections (DIN or ANSI) of the product ports with the suction inlet horizontally at the bottom and the discharge outlet horizontally at the top are integrated into the center housing [2] (torque value 30 Nm).
  • Page 9: Safety Hints

    the suction side may damage the pump. When the pump operation has been stopped by a closed discharge, the pressure equilibrium of the diaphragms must be ensured. This can be achieved by keeping the pump connected to the air supply pressure; for longer stoppage, the pump must be released from the pressure within the system on both fluid side and air supply side.
  • Page 10: Using As Submersible Pump

    • Especially when deliver critical liquids, wear parts, like diaphragms, should be replaced within a preventive maintenance. • The use of non-original ALMATEC spare parts and structural changes lead to the lapse of the warranty immediately. When operating such a pump, damages of properties and/or persons cannot be excluded.
  • Page 11: Disassembly

    When dismantling a pump the mentioned procedures and safety notes on the previous pages have to be considered generally. The general design of the ALMATEC E-Series is simple. Two tools are delivered along with every pump. The plastic one of these is designed for the mounting of the air-valve [22], the other one for the mounting of valve seat [10].
  • Page 12: Assembly

    Only use original ALMATEC spare parts for repairs and / or preventive maintenance work. If this is not observed, the CE and ATEX markings, the declaration of conformity (s) and the guarantee claim for the pump will expire.

    However, it has to be considered, that the diaphragm monitoring possibly cannot prevent that liquid can leave the pump via the muffler. For higher safety requirements the ALMATEC barrier chamber system (optional equipment code BS) is recommended. In case of humid surrounding air a false alert may occur despite operating the pump with dried compressed air.
  • Page 18: Pulsation Damper Et 80

    ALMATEC Pulsation Damper ET80-F for E-Series E 80 pump The pump size E 80 of the E-Series can be equipped with an ALMATEC pulsation damper type ET80-F. The ALMATEC pulsation dampers series ET represents the latest generation of active pulsation dampers. They are specially designed to be used along with ALMATEC air-operated double diaphragm pumps of the E-Series.
  • Page 19 • According to the requirements of our 14001-certification, every unit which is send to ALMATEC for diagnosis or maintenance reasons has to be accompanied by a filled out decontamination-sheet. Otherwise a processing is not possible. The decontamination- sheet is enclosed to this manual.
