7. Maintenance and service
7.1 General maintenance
The system requires no user maintenance. Maintenance must be done by trained
personnel. The frequency of the maintenance depends on the process and can be
adjusted according to the user experience. Refer to
on page 39 for the
maintenance schedule.
We recommend a monthly visual inspection of the dry pump system. Check that the
electrical supply cord, hoses and pipelines connected to the pump are in good condition
and are secured properly.
7.2 Maintenance plan
More frequent maintenance may be required if the pump is used to pump aggressive
gases or vapours, solvents, organic substances and acids, or if the pump is operated
continuously at high operating temperature.
