2. Operation
WARNING
correct and equipment is internally clean and free from damage.
Make sure that all equipment is to the correct pressure rating.
Do not exceed the maximum operating pressure stated in the specification.
Observe the relevant health and safety precautions.
CAUTION
sufficient amount is used to achieve pressure seal. If excess tape is used,
particles can become loose during the connector mating process and enter
the pump, potentially leading to loss of pump performance or pressure
leaks.
Note: Wherever possible, use o-ring seals in the BSP connection ports this is the
recommended method of sealing.

2.1 Connecting the Pump
BSP ports can be fitted with any suitable length ¼ BSP male connector, sealing either with an
o-ring at the bottom of the port or a bonded seal at the top. Adaptors are supplied to convert
the BSP ports to ¼ NPT. Fit a suitable blanking plug to an unused port.
2.2 Pressure Release Valve (Figure #1)
Use this (1) to reduce or release the pressure in the system. The amount of turn sets the rate
to release the pressure. Only minimum force is necessary to seal the system.
