SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Safety
These instructions contain basic recommendations that should be followed during installation, set up, operation and
maintenance. Therefore, these operating instructions must be read by the installer, operators and other personnel
before assembly and operation. These instructions must be available at all times to the operator.
Precaution Icons
Those safety recommendations in the operating instructions that when ignored could endanger people are marked with
appropriate precaution icons.
Instructions written on the pump assembly must be followed at all times and kept in a readable condition, for example:
• direction of rotation arrows
• marking for fluid connections
Operator Qualifications and Training
Personnel responsible for the operation, maintenance, inspection and assembly must be suitably qualified for this work.
The customer must be responsible for the competence and supervision of staff. If suitably qualified personnel are not
available, training must be provided. This can be provided by the Manufacturer or Distributor, if necessary, at the
request of the customer, who must ensure that the operating instructions are fully understood by all staff.
Dangers of Ignoring the Instructions
Ignoring the safety instructions can endanger people, the environment and equipment. Ignoring these instructions will
also invalidate the warranty.
Not following the safety instructions can lead to:
• machinery failure
• putting people at risk through electrical, mechanical or chemical hazards
• endangering the environment through leakage of hazardous materials
Safety Awareness at Work
The safety instructions contained in the operating manual must be observed, in addition to any national or local codes
and regulations for the prevention of accidents and the customer's own safety regulations.
Safety Instructions for the Operator
• If hot or cold parts could be hazardous, they must be constructed in such a way that they cannot be touched.
• Guards which cover moving parts (e.g., coupling) must not be removed while the machine is in operation.
• Any electrical hazard must be avoided (refer to local electrical codes).
Safety Instructions for Maintenance, Inspection and Assembly
The customer must ensure that all maintenance, inspection and assembly are carried out by authorized and fully
trained personnel who have read fully and familiarized themselves with the operating manual.
As a basic rule, the pump must be taken out of operation before any maintenance work is carried out. The procedures
in the operating manual for taking the pump out of operation must be followed.
Pumps or systems used for liquids which are hazardous to health must be decontaminated before maintenance.
Immediately after completion of any work, all safety and protective devices must be refitted.
Before restarting the pump, follow the instructions for commissioning a pump for the first time.
User Modification or Manufacturing of Spare Parts
Modification to the pump should be made only after consultation with the Manufacturer. Those modifications to the
pump will not be covered under warranty. Use only original spare parts, hose and fittings approved by the Manufacturer.
The Manufacturer will not accept liabilty for use of unauthorized spare parts. Use of hoses or tubes other than those
supplied by the Manufacturer shall invalidate the warranty.
Unauthorized Operation
Operational safety is guaranteed only if the instructions in the SAFETY PRECAUTIONS section are followed. Under no
circumstances are the performance limits shown on the data sheet to be exceeded.
