labelling data may cause a fire or explosion.
Check the label on the pumphead to ensure that the pumphead type and the ATEX labelling conform to
the planning of the plant or machine.
Check that all components are present. Inspect components for damage in transit. If anything is missing
or damaged, contact your Watson-Marlow representative immediately.
