Safety

These operating instructions contain basic information
that must be observed during installation, operation and
maintenance. Therefore, prior to final installation and
commissioning, these operating instructions must be
read by the installation engineer, as well as by the
supervising personnel/operator, and must always be
available at the place of installation of the machine/plant.

Not only is the general safety information listed under
the main heading of „Safety“ to be observed, but also
the special safety hints provided under other main
headings, e.g. for private use.

Marking of hints in the operating instructions

The safety hints contained in these operating instructions,
relating to situations which may cause danger to
personnel in the event of non-compliance, are specially
marked with the general hazard symbol

And, for warnings relating to electrical voltage, with

For safety hints where non-compliance may cause
danger to the machine and its operation, the word

ATTENTION

is used.

Safety hints attached directly to the machine, such as,
for example:
–Rotation arrow
–Labels for fluid connections
must always be observed and kept in completely legible
condition.

Qualification and training of personnel

Personnel engaged in operation, maintenance, inspec-
tion and assembly must have appropriate qualifications
for these tasks. Area of responsibility, competence and
supervision of personnel must be precisely controlled
by the user. Personnel with inadequate knowledge must

receive training and instruction. If required, this can be
provided on behalf of the user by the manufacturer/sup-
plier. In addition, the user must ensure that the contents
of the operating instructions are fully understood by the
personnel.

Dangers in the event of non-compliance with the
safety information

Non-compliance with the safety information may result
in danger not only to persons, but also to equipment and
the environment. Non-compliance with the safety
information will lead to the loss of any damage compen-
sation claims.

In detail, non-compliance may, for example,result in the
following dangers:
–Failure of important functions of the machine/plant
–Failure of specified procedures for maintenance and

servicing

–Danger to persons due to electrical, mechanical and

chemical influences

–Danger to the environment due to leakage of hazard-

ous substances.

Safety-conscious working

The safety hints provided in this operating manual, the
current national accident prevention regulations, as well
as the user’s in-house operating and safety regulations,
must be observed.

Safety hints for the user/operator

– If hot or cold machine parts are dangerous, these parts
must be protected against accidental contact on site.
– Guards for moving parts must not be removed when
the machine is in operation.
– When operating pump aggregates in a dust-laden
enviroment (e.g. milling, chipboard manufacture,
bakeries), the surfaces of the pumps and motors must be
cleaned at regular intervals, depending on local
conditions, in order to maintain the cooling effect and
eliminate the possibility of spontaneous combustion.
Please also see explosion protection regulations (BGR
104).
– Leakages (e.g. from the shaft seal) of hazardous
pumping liquids (e.g. explosive, toxic, hot) must be
drained in such a way that no danger is caused to
persons or the environment. Legal regulations must
be observed.
- Provisions must be taken against electrical hazards
(for details please refer to the regulations of the VDE
and the local electricity board).
