8.2. Cleaning and dismantling
WARNING
Health hazard due to dangerous
substances in the pump
Depending on the medium transferred, caustic burns
or poisoning are possible.
Wear protective clothing if necessary, e.g. pro-
tective gloves.
Flush the pump with a neutral liquid and pump
empty.
With NFB pumps, make sure that both pump
heads are flushed.
With NFB pumps the necessary steps are repeated for the
second pump head.
8.2.1. Flushing the pump
If transferring aggressive media, KNF recommends flushing
the pump with a neutral fluid under atmospheric conditions for
a few minutes before switching off, to extend the service life of
valves and diaphragm.
8.2.2. Preparations for disassembly
Flush the pump with a suitable neutralising liquid, and make
sure that no dangerous substances are left in the pump.
Pump empty.
Separate electrical connections.
Disconnect hoses from pump head.
