7.2 Replacement parts
The operating company of the pump/pump unit is responsible for selecting the correct
replacement parts according to the replacement parts documentation supplied by
Fristam Pumpen
.
Wear parts must be replaced regularly to ensure permanent explosion
protection.
The service life of the pump parts (e.g., bearings, seals, magnetic
coupling, gearbox etc.) depends on the mode of operation. Only original
spare parts may be used; otherwise the warranty expires, and there is a
risk of malfunction with dangers to persons and the environment.
If original spare parts are not used, it must be checked whether there is
any significant modification of the device and which affects safety-related
features or the integrity of a type of protection. If this is the case,
conformity according to Directive 2014/34/EU is no longer guaranteed and
must be reapplied.
In particular for pumps in which an ignitable pumping medium occasionally
occurs inside, contact-less running of internal parts of the pump is only
guaranteed with original Fristam spare parts and the associated quality
controls.
Please note that the mechanical shaft seals and magnetic couplings
used by
Fristam Pumpen
are machine parts for general technical use.
They are not components within the meaning of Directive 2014/34/EC.
Fristam
Service is available for all assembly and maintenance work or
information on spare parts.
