resulting from incorrect use.
In the event of questions regarding the material resistance and suitability of the pump for specific dosing media,
please contact Grundfos Alldos.

Max. media temperature: 40゜C
Warning Observe the chemical manufacturer's safety instructions when handling chemicals!
The dosing medium must be in liquid form!
Observe the freezing and boiling points of the dosing medium!
3
The resistance of the parts that come into contact with the media depends on the media, media temperature and
operating pressure. Ensure that parts in contact with the media are chemically resistant to the dosing medium
under operating conditions!
Make sure that the pump is suitable for the actual dosing medium!
2. Safety
This manual contains general instructions that must be observed during installation, operation and maintenance of the pump. This
manual must therefore be read by the installation engineer and the relevant qualified personnel/operators prior to installation and
start-up, and must be available at the installation location of the pump at all times.
It is not only the general safety instructions given in this "Safety" section that must be observed, but also all the specific safety
instructions given in other sections.
2.1 Identification of safety instructions in this manual
If the safety instructions or other advice in this manual are not observed, it may result in personal injury or malfunction and damage
to the pump. The safety instructions and other advice are identified by the following symbols:
Warning If these safety instructions are not observed, it may result in personal injury!
If these safety instructions are not observed, it may result in malfunction or damage to the equipment!
Notes or instructions that make the job easier and ensure safe operation.
Information provided directly on the pump, e.g. labelling of fluid connections, must be observed and must be maintained in a
readable condition at all times.
2.2 Qualification and training of personnel
The personnel responsible for the operation, maintenance, inspection and installation must be appropriately qualified for these tasks.
Areas of responsibility, levels of authority and the supervision of the personnel must be precisely defined by the operator.
If the personnel do not have the necessary knowledge, the necessary training and instruction must be given. If necessary, training
can be performed by the manufacturer/supplier at the request of the operator of the pump. It is the responsibility of the operator to
make sure that the contents of this manual are understood by the personnel.
2.3 Risks when safety instructions are not observed
Non-observance of the safety instructions may have dangerous consequences for the personnel, the environment and the pump. If
the safety instructions are not observed, all rights to claims for damages may be lost.
2.4 Safety-conscious working
The safety instructions in this manual, applicable national health and safety regulations and any operator internal working,
operating and safety regulations must be observed.
2.5 Safety instructions for the operator/ user
Hazardous hot or cold parts on the pump must be protected to prevent accidental contact. Leakages of dangerous substances (e.g.
hot, toxic)must be disposed of in a way that is not harmful to the personnel or the environment. Legal regulations must be observed.
Damage caused by electrical energy must be prevented (for more details, see for example the regulations of the VDE and the
local electricity supply company).
2.6 Safety instructions for maintenance, inspection and installation work
The operator must ensure that all maintenance, inspection and installation work is carried out by authorised and qualified personnel,
who have been adequately trained by reading this manual.
All work on the pump should only be carried out when the pump is stopped. The procedure described in this manual for stopping the
pump must be observed.
Pumps or pump units which are used for media that are harmful to health must be decontaminated. All safety and protective
equipment must be immediately restarted or put into operation once work is complete.
Observe the points described in the initial start-up section prior to subsequent start-up.
Warning
Electrical connections must only be carried out by qualified personnel!
The pump housing must only be opened by personnel authorised by Grundfos Alldos!
2.7 Unauthorised modification and manufacture of spare parts
Modification or changes to the pump are only permitted following agreement with the manufacturer. Original spare parts and
accessories authorised by the manufacturer are safe to use. Using other parts can result in liability for any resulting consequences.
2.8 Improper operating methods
The operational safety of the supplied pump is only ensured if it is used in accordance with section 1. General information. The
4
specified limit values must under no circumstances be exceeded.
2.9 Safety of the system in the event of a failure in the dosing system
DMB dosing pumps are designed according to the latest technologies and are carefully manufactured and tested. However, a failure
may occur in the dosing system. Systems in which dosing pumps are installed must be designed in such a way that the safety of the
entire system is still ensured following a failure of the dosing pump. Provide the relevant monitoring and control functions for this.
3. Transport
3.1 Delivery
The DMB dosing pump is delivered in a cardboard box. Place the pump in the packaging during transport and intermediate
storage.
3.2 Unpacking
Retain the packaging for future storage or return, or dispose of the packaging in accordance with local regulations.
3.3 Return
Return the pump in its original packaging or equivalent. The pump must be thoroughly cleaned before it is returned or stored. It is
essential that there are no traces of toxic or hazardous media remaining on the pump.
Before returning the pump to Grundfos Alldos for service, the safety declaration at the end of these instructions must be filled in by
authorised personnel and attached to the pump in a visible position.
If Grundfos Alldos is requested to service the pump, it must be ensured that the pump is free from substances that can be injurious to
health or toxic. If the pump has been used for such substances, the pump must be cleaned before it is returned.
If proper cleaning is not possible, all relevant information about the chemical must be provided. If the above is not fulfilled,
Grundfos Alldos can refuse to accept the pump for service. Possible costs of returning the pump are paid by the customer.
The safety declaration can be found at the end of these instructions.
