NOTICE
This term characterises dangers
to the machine and its proper
operation.
Warning of a general danger.
The danger is specified by
indications given in the table.
This symbol characterises dangers
associated with the voltage and
provides information on voltage
protection.
1.2 GENERAL POINTS
The operation manual at hand provides basic
notes which have to be taken into account during
assembly, operation and maintenance works.
Therefore, before assembly and commissioning,
this operation manual has to be read by the
assembler as well as the responsible personnel/
operator at all costs. It always has to be available
on site of operation of the machine/plant.
The general safety notes listed under the main
point safety are not the only notes to be taken into
account. Please also observe the specific safety
instructions, such as those for private use, listed
under other main points.
1.3 INTENDED USE
• Only use the pump in the fields of application
described in this documentation.
• The pump must only be operated in technically
perfect conditions.
• The pump must only pump the fluids described
in this documentation.
• The pump must never operate without pumped
fluid.
• Never exceed the usage limits defined in the
documentation.
• The safe operation of the pump is only ensured
if it is used as described in this manual.
1.4 PERSONNEL QUALIFICATIONS AND
TRAINING
The
personnel
responsible
maintenance, inspection and assembly have to
have the corresponding qualifications for those
types of work. Area of responsibility, competence
and the surveillance of the personnel have to be
regulated precisely by the operator. If the personnel
do not possess the necessary knowledge, they
have to be trained and instructed.
Furthermore the operator has to make sure that
the personnel have completely understood the
content of the operation manual.
Re-equipment and modification of the machine
are only permitted after consultation with the
manufacturer. Original spare parts and accessories
authorised by the manufacturer are all part of the
safety strategy. Use of other parts can eliminate
liability for the consequences that ensue.
1.5 SAFETY-AWARENESS AT WORK
The safety instructions described in this Operating
Manual, the valid national regulations on accident
prevention, and possible internal regulations of
the customer on work, operation and safety are to
be observed.
It is imperative to observe signs that are attached
directly to the machine (for example, rotational
direction arrow, sign for fluid connections) and
must be kept fully legible.
1.6 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE
CUSTOMER/OPERATOR
• Hot or cold machine components which could
cause danger have to be secured against contact
by the customer.
• Protective devices to prevent touching moving
machinery (e.g. coupling) may not be removed
from operating machines.
• Leakage (e.g. shaft seals) of dangerous
conveyed products (e.g. explosive, poisonous,
hot) has to be led off in such a way that there
is no endangerment to persons or environment.
Legal stipulations are to be maintained.
• Hazards through electric energy are to be
eradicated (for details, see national regulations
and those of the local power supply companies).
• Damage to the mechanical seal may cause
lubricant to leak. The lubricant used is classified
as WGK 1 (slightly hazardous to water).
1.7 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR MAINTENANCE,
INSPECTION AND ASSEMBLY WORK
• The customer has to ensure that all maintenance,
inspection and assembly work is carried out by
authorised and qualified specialist personnel, who
have been sufficiently informed through relevant
and adequate study of the operating manual.
• Work on the machine is to be done only when
it is shut down. The procedure for shutting down
the machine is described in the operating manual
and is to be precisely adhered to.
• Pumps, or pump units that convey hazardous
media have to be decontaminated. Immediately
for
operation,
after finishing work, all safety and protective
devices have to be re-attached and put into effect.
• Prior to initial (re-)start-up, you are to take heed
of the points listed in the section 5. Commissioning.
