    3. Conductive Polypropylene, conductive Acetal or conductive PVDF pumps are not to be installed in applications where the pumps may be subjected to oil, greases and hydraulic liquids. 4. Ruby 010 3/8’’ shall not be installed in applications and areas with hydrogen and acetylene atmosphere.
  • Page 6: Pump Identification

    particular for those who are only occasionally involved in work on the pump, like cleaning or service personnel. Each pump is subjected to stringent inspections and function tests before leaving the factory. You should always bear in mind that a correct function, a long lifetime and optimal operational reliability of the pump mainly depend on : ...
  • Page 7: Markings And General Information

    1.0.2 Markings and general information In compliance with the 2014/34/EU standards, the Ruby pumps carry the following identification marks:  EU Directive 2014/34/EU Equipment and protective systems intended for use in potentially explosive atmospheres (ATEX)  EN ISO 80079-36 :2016 Non electrical equipment for use in potentially explosive atmospheres - Basic method and requirements ...
  • Page 8: Warranty

    1.1 Warranty The correct function of each Ruby pump is tested in the factory. However, should any defect appear, please contact the Manufacturer’s After-Sales Service, your dealer or the nearest Customer Service Centre where you will receive assistance as quickly as possible.

    1.4 Pump operation Ruby Air Operated Diaphragm Pumps are oscillating positive displacement pumps with two pump chambers arranged opposite each other. Both of these are separated by a diaphragm each into an air and a fluid section. Both diaphragms are linked by a piston rod, so that with every stroke product is displaced to the outside from the one pump chamber and product is drawn into the opposite pump chamber.
  • Page 11: Safety Rules

    2.0 Safety Rules Dangerous or hazardous practices or practice not complying with the safety rules and with the recommendations contained herein, may cause serious injuries, material damage and even explosions and /or death for which the manufacturer cannot be held responsible. WARNING: these instructions are essential for the pumps' compliance to the requirements of the 2006/42/EC directive and must therefore be available, known, understood and applied.
  • Page 12  also ascertain that the connection piping is strong enough and cannot be deformed by the pump weight or by the intake. Also check hat the pump is not burdened by the weight of the piping.  If the pump is to stay in disuse for a long period of time, clean it carefully by running a non- flammable liquid detergent through it that is compatible with the pump's construction materials.
  • Page 13 WARNING: The air-driven motor of the Ruby pumps is self-lubricating and will not require any greasing. Therefore a void using Iubricated and non- dried air.
  • Page 14 WARNING: Periodic controls must be made to ensure that there is no powder and/or deposits on the external and internal. surfaces of the pump and, if necessary, they must be cleaned with a damp cloth WARNING: removal of the silencer and the air supply fitting must be done when free from powder.
  • Page 15: Equipotential Bonding / Earthing

    2.1 Equipotential bonding / earthing In principle, pumps and accessories must be earthed or provided with equipotential bonding if there is the possibility of product specific electro-static charging and when used in potentially explosive areas. Pumps and pulsation dampers with ATEX II 2/2 G Ex h IIC T4 Gb – II 2/2 D Ex h IIC T35 Db approval are therefore fitted with an earthing screw.
  • Page 16: Installation

    3.0 Installation To be observed before installation 1. The installation must only be carried out by persons who have the necessary skills for this work. 2. Before installation align the pump correctly and fasten it without any tension. Pipelines must be assembled in a way that the basic weight of the lines is not reasting on the pump.
  • Page 17: Connection Of Air Supply Line

    For this reason we recommend the installation of a spool, diaphragm or needle valve as shut-off element. WARNING: pneumatic supply to the Ruby pumps must he made using FILTERED. DRIED. NON LUBRICATED OIL FREE AIR at a pressure of not less than 2 bars and not more than 8 bars.

    3.3 Pump in suction operation Ruby Air Operated Diaphragm Pumps are dry self-priming. Depending on the pump design a suction head of max. 9 mwc can be reached, when the suction line is filled. 3.4 Pump in submerged operation The Ruby Air Operated Diaphragm Pumps are suitable for submerged operation.
  • Page 19: Noise Emissions (2003/10/Ec)

    WARNING: the pump must be connected with FLEXIBLE HOSES REINFORCED WITH A RIGID SPIRAL of a diameter never smaller than the pump's connection. The filters or other equipment installed at the intake side must be suitably dimensioned in οrder to avoid pressure drops. For negative installations and/or viscous fluids, use hoses with an OVERSIZE DIAMETER, especially on the intake side.
