CAUTION
High magnetic field strength of pump impeller.
The pump system contains a rotor magnet with high field strength. This may alter
or damage the calibration of sensitive electronic devices and measuring
instruments in the immediate surroundings. Keep at a safe distance from
computers, monitors and all magnetic data storage media (e.g. disks, credit
cards, audio and video tapes etc.)
!
WARNING
Hazardous voltage may be present.
In case of the usage of an inadequate AC/DC power supply, mains voltages may
be present (even if the system is designed for 48VDC). The usage of a galvanic
separated power supply, which is certified by a 3
rd
party (UL or CE), is highly
recommended. The controller must be grounded and placed in a spill protected
electrical cabinet. Do not under any circumstances open the powered controller.
The usage of galvanic separated AC/DC supply is highly recommended.

WARNING
High magnetic field strength of pump impeller.
The pump system contains a rotor magnet with high field strength. Pacemakers
may be influenced and magnetic forces may lead to contusions. Keep distance
to pacemakers and handle impeller with care.
!
WARNING
TOXIC CHEMICALS may be present.
When using the system to pump chemicals, skin contact and toxic gases may
be hazardous to your health. Wear safety gloves and other appropriate safety

WARNING
Do Not Operate the Metallic Pump Head Dry!
In case of failure in dry running conditions, the failing rotating impeller of the
metallic pump head can cause sparks. Precautions must be taken, to avoid
explosive atmospheres within the pump head under any circumstances. Dry
running must be avoided and the pump head must be filled with liquid at any
time while the impeller is rotating.
