Cautions—Read First!
WARNING:
In any positive-displacement pump system, a
reliable pressure-protection device must be used in the
discharge piping to avoid a dangerous pressure increase,
which could cause the pump or any component in the
discharge piping to burst and can lead to serious injury. A
pump-mounted integral relief valve is not intended to be
used in this manner.
WARNING:
This pump contains powerful permanent
magnets that can cause serious injury. Read the appropriate
section of this IOM before doing any service work.
WARNING:
Magnetic field can disrupt medical implants
such as pacemakers. Implant wearers should remain a
minimum of 0.3 m (1 ft) away from pump and 1 m (3 ft) away
from disassembled magnets.
WARNING:
Magnets inside the pump can damage
electronic equipment or magnetic media.
WARNING:
This pump is designed to rotate only in the
direction indicated. Do not run the pump in the opposite
direction for long periods because internal passageways
that control axial thrust will not work correctly, causing
premature wear and reduced pumping efficiency.
WARNING:
The inner magnets on the back of the rotor
assembly are strongly attracted to the outer magnets in the
outer-drive assembly. During the separation process, there will
be a strong force of up to 136 kg (300 lbs) trying to pull them
back together, which can create a powerful pinch point.
To safely separate the rotor assembly from the outer-drive
assembly, follow the instructions below and use the
following equipment:
Crane, hoist or other suitable lifting device capable of
lifting at least 182 kg (400 lbs)
Sturdy workbench that is positioned beneath the lifting
device and is firmly anchored to the floor, or if
unanchored, the workbench must weigh at least 182 kg
(400 lbs), and be strong enough to resist a lifting force
of up to 182 kg (400 lbs)
Pump Disassembly Tool F-00096 or F-00097
WARNING:
Failure to have each magnet segment in
opposite polarity with adjacent magnets will cause a
significant reduction of coupling torque.
WARNING:
During operation the pump surface temperature
can exceed 140º F (60ºC). Allow for proper cooling before
any handling.
WARNING:
Maximum temperature limits are based upon
mechanical stress only. Certain chemicals will significantly
reduce maximum safe operating temperatures. Consult
Chemical Resistance Guide for chemical compatibility and
temperature limits.
WARNING:
Prevent static sparking. If static sparking
occurs, fire or explosion could result. Pump, valves and
containers must be grounded to a proper grounding point
when handling flammable fluids and whenever discharge of
static electricity is a hazard.
WARNING:
For applications requiring CE or Atex, refer to
the E Series Safety Supplement for addition cautions and
warnings.
CAUTION:
Only personnel who are familiar with the
operation and repair of mechanical products should perform
the necessary maintenance. You must familiarize yourself
with the entire contents of this manual prior to operating
and/or performing any maintenance.
CAUTION:
When selecting a E Series pump for an
application, you must first ensure that the pump components
are compatible with the process media.
CAUTION:
Do not operate this pump in excess of its rated
capacity, pressure, speed and temperature.
CAUTION:
Before any maintenance and repair is attempted,
disconnect the drive.
CAUTION:
Before any maintenance or repair is attempted,
bleed all pressure from the pump through the suction or
discharge lines.
CAUTION:
Do not remove any pressure-containing
components during pump operation.
CAUTION:
All E Series pumps contain residual hydraulic oil
from the factory production test. Hypar-FG 15 food-grade oil is
the standard production test fluid, but any certified performance
testing may be done on a non-food grade oil, such as Unilube
32 (ISO 32) or Unilube 100 (ISO 100). Determine if this is
compatible with the fluid you are pumping. If the fluid is
incompatible, then the pump must be fully flushed prior to use.
CAUTION:
When pumping fluids at elevated temperatures,
care should be taken to gradually increase temperature. Rapid
temperature increase can damage internal components.
CAUTION:
Ensure that the pump has cooled to a safe
temperature before any maintenance or repair is attemped.
CAUTION
: When pumping fluids at elevated temperatures
the piping may expand, resulting in excessive stress on the
pump. This can cause pump failure. Care must be taken
when considering pipe design to avoid damage from thermal
expansion.
CAUTION:
All inlet and discharge plumbing should be clean
and free from foreign material prior to startup of pump.
CAUTION:
When connecting to an electric motor, follow all
safety recommendations provided by the motor manufacturer.
CAUTION:
Never remove safety guards from shafts,
couplings, V-belts or pulleys during operation. Doing so
could result in injury.
CAUTION:
Do not wear loose or dangling clothing or jewelry
near the equipment. These items could become caught in
the equipment and cause injury.
CAUTION:
Before any maintenance or repair is attemped,
ensure that the pump has been thoroughly flushed of any
hazardous fluids. Review the Material Safety Data Sheet
(MSDS) applicable to the fluid for proper handling.
