3.5 

Safety conscious working 

The  safety  instructions  specified  in this  operating  manual,  the 
national regulations for accident prevention, the safety regula-
tions  for  the  pumped  medium  valid  at  the  place  of  installation 
as well as internal working-, operating-, and safety instructions 
of the owner are to be observed. 
 
 

 

3.6 

Safety instructions for the owner / 
operator 

 
Leaking  pumped  media  must  be  disposed  off  in  such  a  way 
that  any  danger  to  persons  and  hazards  to  the  environment 
are excluded. The legal regulations are to be observed. 
Dangers through electrical energy are to be precluded. 
 
 
 

3.7 

Safety instructions for maintenance-, 
inspection and installation work 

 
The owner must ensure that all maintenance-, inspection- and 
installation  work  are  exclusively carried  out  by  authorized  and 
qualified  personnel  who  have  read  the  operating  instructions 
carefully. 
 
The  spare  parts  used  must  comply  with  the  requirements  of 
the respective operating instructions. 
 
All  screwed  connections  and  connections  may  only  be  re-
moved when the system is not under pressure. 
 
 
 

3.8 

Arbitrary modification and spare parts 
production 

 
Modification to and changement of the pump is only permitted 
after  previous  agreement  of  the  manufacturer.  Original  spare 
parts and accessories approved by the manufacturer increase 
safety.  
 

 

CAUTION ! 

 
If non-approved parts are used or if the pump is modified 
arbitrarily the manufacturer refuses any liability claims. 
 

 
 
 

3.9 

Improper operations 

 
Operating safety of the supplied diaphgram pump is only guar-
anteed if the product is used as intended, according to the de-
scriptions in Chapter 3.10 of these operating instructions.  
 
 

3.10  Intended use 

 
The 

sera

 

– diaphragm pump is only to be deployed according 

to  the  intended  purpose  stated  in  the  product  description  and 
the acceptance test certificate. 
 
If the solenoid diaphragm pump is to be used for other applica-
tions,  then  the  suitability  of  the  pump  for  the  new  operating 
conditions must be discussed with  

sera

  beforehand! 

 

Criteria  for  the  proper  use  of  the  solenoid  diaphragm  pump 
are: 
 

 

Observe  characteristics  of  the  pumped  medium  (please 
see safety-  and  product  data  sheet  of  the  pumped medi-
um used 

– the safety data sheet is to be provided by the 

supplier / owner of the pumped medium) 

 

Resistance of the materials which come into contact with 
the pumped medium 

 

Operating conditions at the place of installation 

 

Pressure and temperature of the pumped medium 

 

Voltage supply 

 
 
 

3.11  Personal protection for maintenance and 

service 

 
In order to avoid risks to health, the provisions of the German 
Ordinance  on  Hazardous  Substances  (GefStoffV)  (§14  Safety 
Data  Shee)  and  relevant  national  safety  regulations  for  the 
pumped medium must strictly be adhered to. 
 
In  case  of  an  incident  pay  attention  to  the  following  leaking 
media: 

 

fluids 

 

vapours 

 

noise emissions (sound level) 

 
Emissions  are  to  be  monitored  by  corresponding  monitoring 
systems. 
 
 

 

CAUTION ! 

 
Wear  protective  clothing,  gloves,  and  a  face  protecting 
and breathing mask. 
 

 
 

 

CAUTION ! 

 
Personal  protective  equipment  must  be  provided  by  the 
owner!
