9 Operation manual for blowers
9.1 Installation
The blower must always be installed above the
water level!! If it is set below, the back-flowing
water can cause an electrical short circuit.
The blower should be installed at least 10 cm higher than the foundation
on a stable platform. If installed on an unstable base, noise from vibrati-
ons can result.
The blower must be located on a leveled platform to prevent biased stra-
in on the diaphragms that could lead to reduced component life of the
blower.
9.2 Ambience
Ensure that the unit has good ventilation, especially when subjected to
servere operating conditions. If installed in a control cabinet, sufficient
ventilation (louvered vents) is essential to prevent overheating. The blower should not be operated in a dusty environment. The life of
the diaphragms and valves may be shortened by overheating due to easi-
ly blocked filter elements. Where the air is dirty, corresponding filters
should be provided.
The blowers are weatherproof. However, they should not be exposed to
direct sunlight, rain or snow.
9.3 Medium quality
The blowers were specially developed for transporting air. The atmosphe-
re humidity should not be higher than 90%. Inflammable or aggressive
gases and vapors should not enter the pump as the flow path leads to
current-carrying parts. A requirement for transporting gases or vapors is
that the medium has been previously tested to their resistance and ope-
rating safety. This test must take place on the initiative of the user. The
producer accepts no responsibility.
Ambient temperature should not exceed 40°C.
For operation at higher temperatures, contact
the producer.
9.4 Piping
Select tube size, lengths and accessories to keep the pressure loss as
small as possible, in particular:
• Make the piping as short and straight as possible
• Do not use tubing of smaller diameter than the port of the unit (inside
R min. 27 mm for EL twin system, G ¾” for lamella blowers and G 1
for vane blowers).
• Utilize large valves of smaller diameter than the blower's connector
port. Use check valves that provide the lowest pressure drop rather
than spring loaded valves.
• Select low air loss diffusers for aeration.
9.5 Storage
The blowers may not be stored at less than -10°C. The permanent mag-
net would be weakened in such a case, and the performance would not
be expected. The pump may not be stored in direct sunlight or at high temperatures.
The rubber parts would age too quickly.
9.6 Maintenance and service for membrane blower
Apart from occasional filter cleaning and the simple replacement of some
components, such as broken diaphragms, long-term maintenance-free
operation is ensured. Complete repair kits available.
Always disconnects power before servicing.
Failure to do so could result in electrical shock,
personal injury or death.

A cool ambience will ensure longer diaphragm
and valve life!
Do not touch live parts. Touching live parts will
result in electric shock.
