Versa-Matic 2 Bolted Metallic Hazardous Service Ball Valve (RE2 ) - Manual (Page 2)

IMPORTANT
Read the safety warnings and instructions in this manual
before pump installation and start-up. Failure to comply with
the recommendations stated in this manual could damage the
pump and void factory warranty.
When used for toxic or aggressive fluids, the pump should
always be flushed clean prior to disassembly.
Airborne particles and loud noise hazards. Wear eye and ear
protection.
Before maintenance or repair, shut off the compressed air line,
bleed the pressure, and disconnect the air line from the pump.
Be certain that approved eye protection and protective clothing
are worn at all times. Failure to follow these recommendations
may result in serious injury or death.
When the pump is used for materials that tend to settle out
or solidify, the pump should be flushed after each use to
prevent damage. In freezing temperatures the pump should be
completely drained between uses.
Before pump operation, inspect all fasteners for loosening
caused by gasket creep. Retighten loose fasteners to prevent
leakage. Follow recommended torques stated in this manual.
CAUTION
WARNING
Nonmetallic pumps and plastic components are not UV
stabilized. Ultraviolet radiation can damage these parts and
negatively affect material properties. Do not expose to UV light
for extended periods of time.

In the event of diaphragm rupture, pumped material may enter
the air end of the pump, and be discharged into the atmosphere.
If pumping a product that is hazardous or toxic, the air exhaust
must be piped to an appropriate area for safe containment.
This pump is pressurized internally with air pressure during
operation. Make certain that all fasteners are in good condition
and are reinstalled properly during reassembly.
Take action to prevent static sparking. Fire or explosion can
result, especially when handling flammable liquids. The pump,
piping, valves, containers and other miscellaneous equipment
must be properly grounded.
Safety Information
To be fully groundable, the pumps must be ATEX Compliant. Refer to the nomenclature page for ordering information.
Optional 8 foot long (244 centimeters) Ground Strap is available for
easy ground connection.
To reduce the risk of static electrical sparking, this pump must be
grounded. Check the local electrical code for detailed grounding
instruction and the type of equipment required.
Refer to nomenclature page for ordering information.
Grounding the Pump
WARNING
Take action to prevent static sparking.
Fire or explosion can result, especially
when handling flammable liquids. The
pump, piping, valves, containers or
other miscellaneous equipment must
be grounded.
Users of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) with the WEEE marking per Annex IV of the
WEEE Directive must not dispose of end of life EEE as unsorted municipal waste, but use the
collection framework available to them for the return, recycle, recovery of WEEE and minimize
any potential effects of EEE on the environment and human health due to the presence of
hazardous substances. The WEEE marking applies only to countries within the European Union
(EU) and Norway. Appliances are labeled in accordance with European Directive 2002/96/EC.
Contact your local waste recovery agency for a
designated collection facility in your area.
None of the equipment supplied within the AirVantage unit either use of exceed the amounts
stated above hazardous substances. A signed declaration from our supplier of the electronic/
electrical portion of the AirVantage unit will be held on file stating their adherence to the RoHS,
2002/95/EC regulation.
The enclosure is non-conducting and may generate an ignition-capable level of electrostatic
charges under certain extreme conditions. The user should ensure that the equipment is not
installed in a location where it may be subjected to external conditions (such as high-pressure
steam) which might cause a build-up of electrostatic charges on non-conducting surfaces.
Additionally, cleaning of the equipment should be done only with a damp cloth.”
WARNING
Pump not designed, tested or certified to be powered by
compressed natural gas. Powering the pump with natural
gas will void the warranty.
