Warning
When dosing dangerous media, observe the
corresponding safety precautions!
Risk of chemical burns!
Wear protective clothing (gloves and goggles) when
working on the dosing head, connections or lines!
Do not allow any chemicals to leak from the pump.
Collect and dispose of all chemicals correctly!
Warning
The pump housing must only be opened by
personnel authorised by Grundfos!
Repair must only be carried out by authorised and
qualified personnel!
Switch off the pump and disconnect it from the power
supply before carrying out maintenance work and
repair!
Caution
In the event of a diaphragm leakage, the dosing
liquid may leak out of the hole in the intermediate
flange between the pump and the dosing head. The
parts inside the housing are protected from the
dosing liquid for a short time (depending on the type
of liquid) by the housing sealing. It is necessary to
check regularly (daily) if liquid is leaking out of the
intermediate flange.
Observe section
For maximum safety, we recommend the pump
version with diaphragm leakage detection.
Note
If possible, rinse the dosing head, e.g. by flushing it
with water.
