1. Safety
This operating manual gives basic instructions,
which must be observed during installation,
operation and maintenance of the pump. It is
therefore imperative that this manual is read by
the responsible personnel / operator(s) prior to
assembly and commissioning. It must always be
kept available at the site of pump installation.
It is not only the general safety instructions
contained in this chapter “Safety” which must be
observed, but also the specific information
provided in the other chapters.
1.1 Identification of safety
symbols in the operating
instructions
Safety symbols are given in these operating
instructions. Non compliance with these would
affect safety and are identified by the following
symbol
Danger symbol as per DIN 4844-W9
(ISO 3864 - B.3.1)
Or in case of danger of electric current with:
Danger symbol as per DIN 4844 W-8
(ISO 3864 - B.3.6)
The word
ATTENTION
identifies those safety regulations where non-
compliance may pose a danger to the pump and
its function. It is imperative that the appropriate
safety information is attached to the pump/pump
set, for example:
•
an arrow indicating the direction of rotation
•
symbols indicating fluid connections
•
the identification plate
and that these are kept legible.
1.2 Qualification and training of
personnel
The personnel responsible for operation,
maintenance, inspection and assembly must be
adequately qualified. The scope of responsibility
and supervision of the personnel must be exactly
defined by plant management. If the staff do not
have the necessary knowledge, they must be
trained and instructed. This task may be
performed by the machine manufacturer or
supplier on behalf of the plant management.
Moreover, plant management must ensure that
the contents of the operation instructions are fully
understood by plant operators and other relevant
personnel such as maintenance staff.
1.3 Hazards in case of non
compliance with safety
instructions
Non compliance with the safety instructions may
result in risk to personnel as well as to the
environment and the pump/pump set and result in
the loss of any right to claim damages.
For example, non-compliance may result from, or
lead to, the following:
•
failure of important functions of the pump/pump
set/plant
•
failure of specified procedures of maintenance
and repair
•
exposure of people to electrical, mechanical
and chemical hazards
•
danger to the environment owing to hazardous
substances being released.
