The pumps are built according to the generally recognized rules of
technology and in accordance with the occupational safety and
accident prevention regulations. Nevertheless, dangers can result
during its use which lead to injuries to the user or others, or to
damage to the pump or other property.
Only use the pumps in proper technical condition and in accord-
ance with its intended use in a safety and danger-conscious man-
ner while observing the Operating and Installation Instructions.
Make sure that only trained and instructed personnel or specially
trained personnel work on the pump. This especially applies to
assembly, connection and servicing work.
Make sure that the personnel has read and understood the Operat-
ing and Installation Instructions, and in particular the "Safety"
chapter.
Observe the accident prevention and safety regulations when
performing any work on the pump and during operation.
When transferring dangerous media, observe the safety regula-
tions when handling these media.
Store all replacement parts in a protected manner and dispose of
them properly in accordance with the applicable environmental
protection regulations. Observe the respective national and inter-
national regulations. This especially applies to parts contaminated
with toxic substances.
For the purposes of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, pumps
are “partly completed machinery,” and are therefore to be regarded
as not ready for use. Partly completed machinery may not be
commissioned until such time as it has been determined that the
machine in which the partly completed machinery is to be
assembled is in conformity with the provisions of the Machinery
Directive 2006/42/EC.
The following essential requirements of
Annex I of Directive 2006/42/EC (general principles) are applied
and observed:
−
General Principles No. 1
−
No. 1.1.2. / 1.1.3. / 1.3.1. / 1.3.3. / 1.3.4. / 1.4.1. / 1.5.8. /
1.5.9. / 1.7.4. / 1.7.4.1. / 1.7.4.3.
As these partly completed machinery are OEM-models the power
supplies and the equipment for disconnecting and switching-off the
partly completed machinery respectively have to be considered
when mounting as well as over-current and overload protective
gear.
In addition a protection against mechanical parts in motion and hot
parts, if existing, has to be provided when mounting.
The pumps conform to the Directive 2011/65/EU (RoHS2).
