2.1. Proper use
The pumps are intended for transferring and metering liquids.
Owner's responsibility
Only install and operate the pumps under the operating parameters
and conditions described in Chapter 4, Technical data.
The pumps may be operated only when fully assembled.
Before transferring or metering a medium, check that it can be
transferred without risk in the specific application case.
Before using a medium, check the compatibility of the materials of
the pump head, pump housing, diaphragm and valves with the
medium.
The temperature of the medium must lie within the permissible
temperature range (see Chapter 4).
The media should not contain particles as these can prevent the
pump from working correctly. If this cannot be guaranteed, a filter
< 100
m with sufficiently large filter area must be used upstream
of the pump.
The .51 versions of our diaphragm liquid pump range have been
certified by NSF according to the standard NSF/ANSI 169 and are
therefore suitable for use with foodstuffs without any restrictions.
All materials used have been checked through a series of
toxicological tests. In order to ensure that the food grade quality is
maintained, NSF will carry out a yearly audit checking our certified
products.
Only the pumps marked with ".51" are NSF-certified and contain a
defined material combination that also has a FDA certificate of
conformity.
