Always observe the safety
regulations in chapter 2 when
performing maintenance work and
conversions!
Check all lines and fittings regularly for leaks
and externally visible damage!

Peristaltic pumps of series IP require only little
maintenance. Ball bearings and radial seals in
the pump neck are lifetime lubricated by the
silicone oil or glycerine filling.
The drive must be serviced according to the
instructions of the respective manufacturer.
The pumping hose is the only wear item on the
pump.
Pumps with electric drive must be
switched off and disconnected
from the electric power supply
before starting maintenance work!
If the pump is used for aggressive,
caustic or toxic media, the pump
must be flushed with a neutralizing
agent before opening the pump
housing.
