Preparing for commissioning
Personnel:
Mechanic
Protective equipment:
Protective gloves
Anti-Static Safety Boots
Carry out the following checks for the operation:
Check grounding connection of the pump.
Ambient temperature
Relative humidity
Compressed air connection is flexible and con-
ductive.
Connections of the suction and pressure line
are designed to be conductive.
The connection of the suction and pressure line
must be flexible to equalize vibrations of the
pump. Connections must not be made using
tubes and must be compatible with the material
to be pumped.
Connected media lines and connections are
sealed.
Check all screw connections with a torque
wrench.

– Wear ear protection.
WARNING!
Danger of explosion due to sources of igni-
tion in an explosive atmosphere.
Sparks, open flames and hot surfaces can cause
explosions in explosive atmospheres. Serious
injury and death could be the consequence.
– Do not use any sources of ignition and no
open light in the work area.
– Ensure that the forced ventilation is opera-
tional.
– Do not smoke.
– Ground Pump.
– Wear suitable protective equipment.
