Operating instructions
WTS 102/3-en 4
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.
Warning against possible damage to property or the environment.
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

Failure to follow the safety instructions can result in the following, for example:
• People being at risk because of electrical, mechanical and chemical factors.
