2 Safety
This section lists all the generally applicable
safety instructions and technical information. In
addition, all the other sections contain specific
safety instructions and technical information. All
instructions and information must be observed
and followed during the various phases of the
pump's life cycle (installation, operation, main-
tenance, transport etc.)! The operator is respon-
sible for ensuring that all personnel follow these
instructions and guidelines.

2.1 Instructions and safety instructions

This manual uses instructions and safety in-
structions for preventing injury and damage to
property. To clearly identify them for personnel,
the instructions and safety instructions are dis-
tinguished as follows:
• Instructions appear in "bold" and refer directly to
the preceding text or section.
• Safety instructions are slightly "indented and
bold" and always start with a signal word.
• Danger
Serious or fatal injuries can occur!
• Warning
Serious injuries can occur!
• Caution
Injuries can occur!
• Caution (instruction without symbol)
Substantial property damage can occur.
Irreparable damage is possible!
• Safety instructions that refer to personal injury
appear in black and are always accompanied by a
safety symbol. Danger, prohibition or instruction
symbols are used as safety symbols.
Example:
Danger symbol: General hazard
Danger symbol, e.g. Electrical current
Symbol for prohibited action, e.g. No entry!
Instruction symbol, e.g. Wear protective
clothing
The safety symbols used conform to the generally
applicable directives and regulations, such as DIN
and ANSI.
• Safety instructions that only refer to proper-
ty damage are printed in grey, without safety
symbols.

2.2 General safety information

• When installing or removing the pump, never
work alone in rooms and pump chambers. A
second person must always be present.
• The pump must always be switched off before
any work is performed on it (assembly, disman-
tling, maintenance, installation). The pump must
be disconnected from the electrical system and
secured against being switched on again. All ro-
tating parts must have come to a standstill.
• The operator must report any faults or irregulari-
ties that occur to a line manager immediately.
• The end-user must shut down the equipment im-
mediately if defects occur that represent a safety
risk. These include:
• Failure of the safety and/or monitoring devices
• Damage to important parts
• Damage to electrical equipment, cables and
insulation
• Tools and other objects should only be kept in
their designated places to ensure safe operation.
• Sufficient ventilation must be provided when
working in enclosed spaces.
• When welding and/or working with electronic
devices, make sure there is no risk of explosion.
• Only lifting gear may be used that is legally de-
fined and officially approved as such.
• The lifting gear must be kept safely and must be
suitable for the conditions of use (weather, hook-
ing unit, load, etc.).
• Mobile equipment for lifting loads should be
used in such a way that it is guaranteed to remain
stable during operation.
• When using mobile equipment for lifting
non-guided loads, take action to prevent tipping,
shifting, sliding, etc.
• Measures should be taken to ensure that no
person is ever directly beneath a suspended
load. Furthermore, it is also prohibited to move
suspended loads over workplaces where people
are present.
• If mobile equipment is used for lifting loads, a
second person should be present to coordinate
the procedure if required (for example, if the
operator's field of vision is blocked).
• The load to be lifted must be transported so that
no-one will be injured if there is a power failure.
Furthermore, if such work is being performed
outdoors it must be halted if the weather condi-
tions worsen.
These instructions must be strictly observed.
Non-observance can result in injury or substan-
tial property damage.
