6 INTRODUCTION
The
MP48-R
diaphragm pump is suitable for 100% oil-free delivery of corrosive gases. Its perfor-
mance and design are specially adapted to the requirements of the analysis technology. The pump is
gas-tight and operates maintenance-free.
PROPER USE
The
MP48-R
is exclusively intended for transferring gases and vapors.
Install and operate the pumps only under the operating parameters and conditions described in chapter
9.
The pumps may only be operated when fully assembled.
Ensure that the installation site is dry and that the pump is protected from the sun, rain, spray, splash
water, pot water and other contaminants.
Regularly check the tightness of the connections between the piping of the application and the pump (or
the casing of the pump), leaking connections may release dangerous gases and vapors from the pump-
ing system.
Before pumping a medium, check whether the medium can be pumped without danger in the specific
application.
Before using a medium, check the compatibility of the materials of the pump head, diaphragm and valves
with the medium.
Only pump gases that remain stable under the pressures and temperatures occurring in the pump.
IMPROPER USE
The
MP48-R
must not be operated in explosive atmospheres.
The
MP48-R
diaphragm pump is not suitable for pumping:
dusts
liquids
aerosol
biological and microbiological substances
fuel
explosives and flammable materials
fibers
oxidizing
agents
food
products
The pumps must not be used for creating vacuum and overpressure at the same time.
Overpressure must not be applied to the suction side of the pump.
