Consider interactions and chemical reactions of

the pumped media. Ensure that the materials of the

pump’s wetted parts are compatible with the pumped

substances, see section “Technical data”, pg. 26.

When changing the substances pumped, we recom-

mend purging the pump with air or inert gas prior to

changing the pumped media. Purging the pump will

pump out residues and it will reduce the possibility of

reactions of the pumped substances with each other

and with the pump’s materials.

Safety during operation

Adopt suitable measures to prevent the release of dan-

gerous, toxic, explosive, corrosive, noxious or pollut-

ing fluids, vapors and gases. To prevent any emission

of such substances from the pump outlet, install an

appropriate collecting and disposal system and take

protective action for pump and environment.

You must take suitable precautions to prevent any for-

mation of explosive mixtures in the pump chamber or

at the outlet of the pump. In case, e.g., of a diaphragm

failure, mechanically generated sparks, hot surfaces

or static electricity may ignite these mixtures. Use inert

gas for venting, if necessary.

Drain appropriately or otherwise remove any poten-

tially explosive mixtures at the outlet of the pump, or

dilute them to non-explosive concentrations.

Never operate this pump if it has a damaged cord or

plug.

+

If the pump is not working properly, has been dropped

or has fallen into water, contact your pump service pro-

vider.

Prevent any part of the human body from coming into

contact with vacuum.
