DANGER
Danger of injuries and property damage caused by an explo-
sion in the connection lines and in the pump
Evaporation of flammable liquids
➢
When flammable liquids are transferred, an explosive at-
mosphere can form in the pump and in the lines during fill-
ing and emptying.
➢
With the hoses that are used, pay attention that no electro-
static charges can form (use conductive materials, ground-
ing and potential equalization).
➢
The hoses and piping that are used must be able to with-
stand the expected pressure of explosion.
DANGER
Danger of injuries and property damage caused by the pump
exploding
If the pump has not been used or has been stored for some time,
residual medium may evaporate and, together with oxygen, form
an explosive atmosphere.
➢
If the pump has not been used for some time or is stored,
empty the pump and rinse with neutral medium to prevent a
subsequent reaction.
WARNING
Danger of injuries and property damage caused by leaks to
the environment
Flammable materials
➢
Keep flammable materials away from the direct vicinity of
the pump and piping.
2.5 Customer service and repairs
All repairs to the pumps must be carried out by the responsible
KNF customer service team.
Use only genuine parts from KNF for servicing work.
