2.2Intended use
The hose pump is exclusively designed for pumping
suitable products. Every other or further use is not in
conformance with the intended use.
The "Intended use" as laid down in EN 292-1 is "... the
use for which the technical product is intended in
accordance with the specifications of the manufacturer,
inclusive of his indications in the sales brochure". In
case of doubt it is the use which appears to be its
intended use judging from the construction, execution
and function of the product . Observing the i nstructions
in the user's documentation also belongs to intended
use.
Only use the pump in conformance with the intended
use described above. The manufacturer cannot be held
responsible for damage or harm resulting from use that
is not in conformance with the intended use. If you want
to change the application of your hose pump, contact
your Bredel representative first.
2.3Use in potentially explosive atmospheres
SAFETY
Refer to chapter 10 for a description of pump
configurations th at are suitable in a potentially exp losiv e
atmosphere. Such configurations are suitable for use in
a potentially explosive atmosphere. For use in Europe,
the pump complie s with the European Directi ve 94 /9/EC
(ATEX).
The pumps belong to:
•Group II Appliances, category 2 GD bck T5
Use in Potentially explosive atmospheres
requires special configuration of the pump
unit. Contact y our Bredel rep resentativ e for
use in explosive atmosphe res .

3WARRANTY CONDITIONS
The manufacturer offers a two-year warranty on all
parts of the hose pum p. Thi s m ean s th at al l parts will be
repaired or replaced free of charge, with the exception
of consumables, such as pump hoses, hose clamps,
ball bearings, wear rings, and seals, or parts which
have been misused or have been intentionally
damaged.
If parts are used that are not Watson-Marlow Bredel
B.V. (hereafter called Bredel) parts, every warranty
becomes void.
Damaged parts which are covered by the applicable
warranty conditions can be returned to the
manufacturer. The parts must be accompanied by a
fully filled in and signed safety form, as present in the
back of this manual. The safety form must be applied to
the outside of the shipping carton. Parts which have
been contaminated or which have been corroded by
chemicals or other substances which can pose a health
risk, must be cleaned before they are returned to the
manufacturer. Furthermore, it should be indicated on
the safety form which spec ific cleaning procedure has
been followed, and it should be indicated that the
equipment has been decontaminated. The safety form
is required at all items, even if the parts have not been
used.
WARRANTY CONDITIONS
Warranties purporting to be on behalf of Bredel, made
by any person, including representatives of Bredel, its

DESCRIPTION
4.1.6Identification of the frequency controller
The identification of the Bredel Variable Frequency
Drive (VFD) can be found inside the VFD. Remove the
cover by loosening the two screws. The identification
sticker contains the following data:
A:Article number
B:Serial number
4.1.7Identification of the pump hose
The identification st icker on the pump hose contains the
following data:
A:Pump type
B:Reorder number
C:Internal diameter
D:Type of material of inner liner
E:Remarks, if applicable
F:Maximum permissible working pressure
G:Production code
The heart of the pump head consists of a specially
constructed pump hose (A) which lies contorted against
the inside of the pump housing (B). Both ends of the
hose are c onnected to the suction and discha rge lines
17
DESCRIPTION
(C). A bearing-mounted rotor (D) with two facing
integral pressing shoes (E) is in the centre of the pump
head.
In phase 1 the lower shoe compresses the pump hose
by the rotational movement of the rotor, forcing the fluid
through the hose. As soon as the shoe has passed, the
hose recovers to its original shape due to the
mechanical properties of the material.
In phase 2 the product is drawn into the hose by the
(continuous) turning motion of the rotor.
In phase 3, the second integral pressing shoe will
subsequently compress the pump hose. Due to the
continuous rotating movement of the rotor not only new
product is sucked in, but also the already present
product is pressed out by the shoe. When the first shoe
runs from the pump hose, the second shoe has already
closed the pump hose and the product is prevented
from flowing back . T his m ethod of liquid displacement is
also known as the "positive displacement principle".

4.4Pump hose
4.4.1General
A:Outer extruded layer made of natural rubber
B:Two nylon reinforcement layers
C:Inner extruded liner
The pump hose liner material should be chemically
resistant with the product to be pumped. Dependent on
the specific requirements of your application a
corresponding pump hose must be selected. For each
pump model various hose types are available.
The material of the inner liner of the pump hose
determines the hose type. Each hose type is marked by
a unique colour code.
Consult your Bredel representative for
more detailed information about the chemical and temperature resistance of pump
hoses.
The Bredel pump hoses have been carefully machined,
therefore there are minimum tolerances in wall
thickness. It is very important to guarantee the cor rect
compression of the pump hose, because:
•When the compression is too high, it creates a
too high load of the pump and pump hose,
which may result in a reduction of the life of the
pump hose and bearings.
19
DESCRIPTION
•When the compression is too low, this will result
in loss of capacity and backflow. Backflow
results in a reduction of the life of the pump
hose.
4.4.2Hose compression force adjustment
The compression force of the pump hose can be
adjusted by installing a rotor with a different dimension
between the tips of the integral pressing shoes. The
rotor is chosen to achieve an optimal life of the pump
hose for the intended us e of th e hos e pu mp . If yo u w ant
to change the application of your hose pump, contact
your Bredel representative .
4.4.3Lubrication and cooling
The pumphead, in which the rotor and pump hose can
be found, is filled with Bredel Genuine Hose Lubricant.
This lubricant lubricates the movement between the
hose and the pressing shoes and dissipates the
generated heat via the pump housing and the cover.
The lubricant is food grade. See §11.1.4 for the
required quantity an d NSF registration.
Consult your Bredel representative for
lubrication recommendations when operating the hose pump below 2 rpm.
4.5Gearbox
The hose pump types described in this manual use
helical gearbox units. The gearboxes are fitted with a
flange connection. Refer to § 11.2 for specifications. If
the pump is to be used in potentially explosive
atmospheres, refer to chapter 10.
20
4.6Electric motor
If the electric motor has been standard supplied by the
manufacturer, it is a standardized squirrel-cage motor.
Refer to § 11.3 for specifications. If the pump is to be
used in potentially explosive atmospheres, refer to
chapter 10.
4.7Frequency controller
Refer to the also s upp lie d documentation of the supplier
and § 11.4. If the pump is to be used in potentially
explosive atmospheres, refer to chapter 10.
4.8Available options
The following options are available for the hose pump:
•High (lubricant) level float switch
•Revolution counter
•Low, medium, or high pressure rotor
•Rotor and coupling for heavy duty
•Frequency controller
•Special configuration for use in explosive
atmospheres
