TRAINING
Personnel assigned to installation, electrical connections and ordinary and special maintenance of the pump, must have at least
8 hours of specific training by an appropriate organism on equipment for explosive atmospheres caused by the inflammable
gases and combustible dusts.
NOTE:
The pump was designed to operate with lubricants with a maximum rating NLGI 2. Use lubricants that are compatible with
NBR gaskets. Any internal residual lubricant used for assembly and testing purposes is NLGI 2 oil
