Take adequate precautions to protect people from the

effects of dangerous substances if contamination has

occurred. Use appropriate protective clothing, safety

goggles and protective gloves.

+

Wear parts have to be replaced regularly.

+

Never operate a defective or damaged pump.

+

Check every motor capacitor regularly by measuring

its capacity and estimating its time in operation. Re-

place old capacitors early enough to prevent a failure

in operation. If an old motor capacitor fails, the capaci-

tor may get hot. It may even melt or emit a flame, which

could be

dangerous for persons and equipment in

the vicinity. The capacitors have to be replaced by an

electrician.

+

Vent the pump before starting maintenance. Isolate

the pump and other components from the vacuum sys-

tem. Allow sufficient cooling of the pump. Separate the

pump from the coolant circuit and drain condensate, if

applicable.

Ensure that

maintenance is done only by suitably trained

and supervised technicians. Ensure that the maintenance

technician is familiar with the safety procedures, which re-

late to the products processed by the pumping system.

Only dismantle the pump as far as necessary.
