1.3 Disposal Samson’s liquid ring pump is manufactured so that most of the device can be reused/recycled. Samson Pumps offer users of the company’s pumps the option of returning used pumps to be restored or scrapped. Alternatively, the pump must be taken apart and sorted into its separate components, by the customer (see section 7 for the pump’s material).
1.4 ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU The pump may be incorporated into a larger system, if the internal atmosphere has an area classification of: Zone 0 (for ATEX category 1 pumps) These systems will be certified in accordance with the ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU For the certification to be valid, the pump must be installed as described in this manual.
Do not operate the pump so that cavitation can occur! For further information see instruction manual for the Samson Pumps vacuum limiter It must be ensured that the inlet gas cannot react with the service liquid and create aggressive bonds that break down the pump's components.

2.4 Handling and transport The pump must not be used if it is damaged or the identification plate is missing ATEX marking must correspond to the area the pump is operating in The pump must be transported in such way that it is not exposed to vibrations and impacts that can overload the bearings.
When emptying the pump, it is important that all chambers inside the pump are emptied. The pump can be fitted with valves in the draining connections. See below. DOC1627383 DOC1627383 Truck Master 350...

The round velocity reducer can be placed inside any tank geometry. Air flow [m³/h] øD minimum [mm] DOC1627391 øD so the velocity is below 3 m/s H=4 to 6*Ød depending on the geometry. A smooth diameter conversion will give a low factor. Truck Master 350...
3.2 Air cooling with fan cooler Compression of air inside the liquid ring pump will create heat that is transferred to the service liquid. Therefore, it can be necessary to install a fan cooler depending on the expected use, the climate etc. The time it takes to heat up the water also depends on for example ambient temperature, suction pressure, amount of water and the cooling effect in the truck itself.
First, we have to reduce the radiator effect based on a temperature difference of 12°C. = 2,4 kW out Truck The total cooling effect required is thereby: = 6 - 2,4 = 3,6 kW out Pump out Truck Truck Master 350...

Therefore, it will be recommended to make a combination of a filter and dome valve as illustrated below. The filter will prevent particles lifted by the foam to enter the pump. DOC1627393 Truck Master 350...
3.6 System layout (Zone 0/1) To safeguard the pump so that it can operate in potentially explosive areas, the components used in the safety device must stop the pump in the event of abnormal operation The maximum working pressure must not exceed specifications, by installing a safety valve The pump must be fitted with the safety device components specified in drawing below.

Due to economical aspect it is more efficient to drain the liquid separator and refill with fresh water instead of protecting with glycol and drain the separator more rarely. Truck Master 350...
3.10 Pipe system The exhaust from the liquid separator will have the same zone classification as the pump’s suction side The pipes that are connected to the pump’s suction and outlet sides must be at least the same dimension as the pump. The length of the pipe system affects the pump’s capacity and should be calculated to account for pressure drop in longer pipe installations.
(C). The M12 bolts must be tightened with 60 Nm (B). In order to prevent tensions in the pump, the pipe connections (A) must be tensionless while tightening the bolts. DOC1627384_1 Truck Master 350 DOC1627384_1...
4.3 Connecting the service liquid The service liquid must be connected to the pump at the hose connections, see illustration below. DOC1627453A DOC1627453A 4.4 Transmission The pump can be connected direct or through belt transmission. For belt transmission, it must be ensured that the permissible radial force is not exceeded.
The pump must be protected from the creation of sparks in connection with static electricity, in accordance with the applicable regulations for use in the current categories. The pump is prepared for earth connection with an M8 bolt. DOC1627452_1B DOC1627452_1B Truck Master 350...
4.6 Prior to start-up • Do not start the pump without service liquid, as this will damage the mechanical shaft seals • Do not start the pump if it is completely filled with service liquid • Do not start the pump before the grease cartridges have been activated, as this can damage the pump •...
Any leaks must be repaired before operation may continue. 5.3 Draining the liquid separator While the pump is stopped, the liquid separator must be drained to remove contaminants. Truck Master 350...
The pump may not be started before the instruments have been re-installed. 5.8 Overhaul of pump The pump must be serviced after 10,000 duty hours. This is done by sending the pump to Samson Pumps, or approved and certified partner, upon agreement. The pump must be cleaned before shipment.
