Operating instructions
1. General
1.1 Foreword
This product complies with the safety requirements of EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
The staff employed on installation, operation, inspection and maintenance must be
able to prove that they know about the relevant accident prevention regulations and
that they are suitably qualified for this work. If staff do not have the relevant
knowledge, they should be provided with suitable instruction.
The operating safety of the pumps or units (i.e. pump plus motor) supplied is only guaranteed if
these are used in accordance with the provisions given in the Confirmation of Order and/or Point 4
in „Installation and Operation“.
The operator is responsible for following the instructions and complying with the safety
requirements given in these Operating Instructions.
Smooth operation of the pump or pump unit can only be achieved if installation and maintenance
are carried out carefully in accordance with the rules generally applied in the field of engineering
and electrical engineering.
If not all the information can be found in these Operating Instructions, please contact us.
The manufacturer takes no responsibility for the pump or pump unit if the Operating Instructions
are not followed.
These Operating Instructions should be kept in a safe place for future use.
If this pump or pump unit is handed on to any third party, it is essential that these Operating
Instructions and the operating conditions and working limits given in the Confirmation of Order
are also passed on in full.
These Operating Instructions do not take into account all design details and variants nor all the
possible chance occurrences and events which might happen during installation, operation and
maintenance.
Alterations or changes to the machine are only permitted by agreement with the manufacturer.
Original spare parts and accessories authorised by the manufacturer should be used for greater
safety. We bear no responsibility for the consequences of using other parts.
We retain all copyright in these Operating Instructions; they are intended only for personal use by
the owner of the pump or the pump unit. The Operating Instructions contain technical instructions
and drawings which may not, as a whole or in part, be reproduced, distributed or used in any
unauthorised way for competitive purposes or passed on to others.
1.2 Guarantee
The guarantee is given in accordance with our Conditions of Delivery and/or the confirmation of
order.
Repair work during the guarantee period may only be carried out by us, or subject to our written
approval. Otherwise the guarantee ceases to apply.
Longer-term guarantees basically only cover correct handling and use of the specified material.
The guarantee shall not cover natural wear and tear and all parts subject to wear, such as
impellers, shaft sealings, shafts, shaft sleeves, bearings, wear rings etc., or damage caused by
transport or improper handling.

Operating instructions
In order for the guarantee to apply, it is essential that the pump or pump unit is used in accordance
with the operating conditions given on the type plate and in the Confirmation of Order. This
applies particularly for the endurance of the materials and smooth running of the pump and shaft
sealing.
If one or more aspects of the actual operating conditions are different, we should be asked to
confirm in writing that the pump is suitable.
1.3 Safety regulations
These Operating Instructions contain important instructions which must be followed when the
pump is assembled and commissioned and during operating and maintenance. For this reason,
these Operating Instructions must be read by the skilled staff responsible and/or by the operator of
the plant before it is installed and commissioned, and they must be left permanently ready to hand
at the place where the pump or pump unit is in use. The operator must ensure that the contents of
the Operating Instructions are fully understood by the staff. The operator must confirm this by
signing the „Plant Manager List“ (see Point 10). These Operating Instructions do not refer to the
General Regulations on Accident Prevention or local safety and/or operating regulations. The
operator is responsible for complying with these (if necessary by calling in additional installation
staff).
The safety instructions contained in these Operating Instructions have the following special safety
markings as specified in DIN 4844:
Warning against personal accidents which could occur if the safety instructions
given in this part of the Operating Instructions are not followed.
Warning against dangerous electrical voltage.
Please
note
It is absolutely essential that safety information affixed directly to the pump or pump unit is
followed and maintained so that it is always easily legible.
1.4 Safety instructions
Dangers of not following safety instructions
Failure to follow the safety instructions can result in the following, for example:
• People being at risk because of electrical, mechanical and chemical factors.
• Important functions of the pump or pump unit failing.
• Dangers to the environment as a result of dangerous substances leaking out.
Warning against possible damage to property or the environment.

Operating instructions
Safety instructions for the operator
• Depending on the operating conditions, wear and tear, corrosion or age will limit the working
life of the pump/pump unit, and its specified characteristics. The operator must ensure that
regular inspection and maintenance are carried out so that all parts are replaced in good time
which would otherwise endanger the safe operation of the system. If abnormal operation or any
damage are observed, the pump must cease operation immediately.
• If the breakdown or failure of any system or unit could lead to people being hurt or property
being damaged, such system or unit must be provided with alarm devices and/or spare modules,
and they should be tested regularly to ensure that they function properly.
• If there is any risk of injury from hot or cold machine parts, these parts must be protected against
contact by the user, or suitable warning signs must be affixed.
• Contact protection on moving parts (e.g. coupling guards) must not be removed from systems
that are in operation.
• If dangerous media (e.g. explosive, toxic, hot) leak out (e.g. from shaft seals), these must be
directed away so that there is no danger to people or the environment. The provisions of the law
must be observed.
• Measures should be taken to exclude any danger from electricity (e.g. by complying with the
local regulations on electrical equipment). If work is carried out on live electrical components,
they should be unplugged from the mains or the main switch turned off and fuse unscrewed. A
motor protection switch is to be provided.
• Basically, all work on the pump or pump unit should only be carried out when the pump is
stationary and not under pressure. All parts must be allowed to return to ambient temperature.
Make sure that no-one can start the motor during such work. It is essential that the procedure for
stopping the system described in the Operating Instructions is observed. Pumps or pump systems
that carry media that are dangerous to health must be decontaminated before being taken apart.
Safety Data Sheets for the various liquids handled. Immediately the work has been completed,
all safety and protective devices must be replaced or restarted.
• Under EC Machinery Directives, every machine must be fitted with one or more emergency
command devices by which situations which represent an immediate danger or which could later
be dangerous can be avoided. This does not include machines in which the emergency switches
cannot reduce the danger, either because they do not reduce the time required to stop the
machine or because the do not allow the measures required by the danger to be taken. This
emergency switch must:
have controls that are clearly marked, easy to see and within easy reach;
stop the dangerous movement as quickly as possible without causing any additional danger;
trigger any specified safety movements or allow these to be started up.
If the emergency command device is no longer operated after an emergency „off“ switch has
been triggered, this must be maintained by blocking the emergency command device until it is
released again. It should not be possible to block the device without this triggering an emergency
„off“ switch. It should only be possible to release the device through an appropriate action; this
release should not start the machine up again - it should only make it possible to start it up again.
• If the power supply is interrupted or restored after being interrupted or if it is changed in any
other way, this should not cause any danger (e.g. pressure surges).
