3.2.1 Non-conforming Utilisation
Non-conforming utilisations for the pump are among others:
■
Pumping of gases and vapours for which the materials of the pump are not
suited.
■
Pumping of condensable vapours without adequately controlling the tem-
perature of the pump. Upon compression in the pump, these vapours may
condense or form deposits.
■
Pumping of dusts and solids without suitable screens and filters
■
Pumping of liquids
■
Pumping of ignitable gas mixtures
■
Operation at an impermissibly high differential pressures
■
Pumping of process gases which form hard or sticky deposits which may
cause the pump to seize.
■
Use of pump and frequency converter in explosion hazard areas which
exceed the specifications laid down in the ATEX identification of pump and
motor.
■
Non-compliance with the described maintenance and service intervals.
■
Use in systems and pump systems in which the pressure may increase
over 1.2 bar abs.
■
Operation with an inadequately affixed pump.
■
Operation without suitable backing pump.
■
Operation at impermissibly high gas temperatures
■
Use in systems where pump, frequency converter and cables are subject-
ed to impact stresses.
■
Operation on movable systems or system components (locks or mobile
pump systems).
■
Use of pump, fitted ad-on components, drive electronics, flanges and
cables to climb onto the system.
■
Removing, covering or obstructing warning notices.
■
Standstill or storing of pump and drive electronics without suitable sealing
and drying. When stored in a humid atmosphere corrosion can occur.
■
Conversions, manipulations and maintenance work by persons not author-
ised by Oerlikon Leybold Vacuum.
The non-conforming utilisation of pump and accessories may result in
severe injury or damage to the components.
