Safety
2.1
Basic safety instruction
Please read this operator's manual completely before using
the pump and keep it available at the pump installation lo-
cation.
Heed the applicable national regulations of the owner's
country and the company's work and safety regulations.
All work described here may only be performed by qualified
experts with caution.
Danger of contamination: Heed legal and operational safety
regulations when pumping dangerous media.
2.2
Intended Use
The centrifugal pumps FPM are used to convey liquids with a dy-
namic viscosity of at least 0.35
mPas, up to a maximum of
1,200
mPas and media temperatures of max. 150°C / 250°C (de-
pending on the material). The medium may contain small
amounts of air or gases, it may be homogeneous and may con-
tain minute admixtures; however, solids exceeding a size of >
0.1
mm are not permitted.
The FSM series is designed for the homogenization of fluids or
mixtures. The temperature of the pumping medium can rise to
a
maximum 150°C / 250°C. The medium may contain small
amounts of air or gases, it may be homogeneous and may con-
tain minute admixtures; however, solids exceeding a size of
>
0.1
mm are not permitted.
Each pump is designed according to customer requirements.
The seal materials have been selected for the respective medi-
um. The pump may only be used to pump the medium it was
designed for (see
"Order-Related Documents"
in the attached
documents).
2.3
Improper Use
The standard version of the FPM and FSM series must not be
used in an explosive atmosphere. Special explosion-proof ver-
sions are available for this.
Pumping of media other than those specified can destroy the
pump.
Pumping of foreign objects with the media can destroy the
pump.
Standard pump units from
Fristam
are described in this opera-
tor's manual. If nonstandard items or extras are installed, the op-
erator assumes the responsibility for operation.
Modifications and changes to the pump are only permitted after
consultation with
Fristam
.
2.4
Labels
Do not alter or remove the labels on the pump.
Immediately replace damaged or lost labels with ones that
are true to the originals.
2.4.1
Warning signs
Fig.
1
Safety label: “Hot surface”
This label indicates that parts can become hot during operation
or, if applicable, that hot media is being pumped. Only touch
the pump if you are wearing suitable gloves.

Safety label: "Magnetic field"
This sign indicates that a strong magnetic field is present in
some parts of the magnetic coupling. If you carry a magnetic
data medium, you must remain outside a radius of 1
m to the
magnetic coupling. When using magnetic parts/tools within
a
radius of 0.5
m, extreme caution is recommended. Due to the
magnetic pull there is an inherent risk of injury and damage to
the parts.

Safety label: "Persons with pacemakers are not permitted beyond this point"
This sign indicates that persons with heart pacemakers implant-
ed defibrillators are not permitted near the pump. Persons using
a heart pacemaker must remain at a distance of at least 2
m
to
the pump.
2.4.2
No dry running

Safety label: “No dry running”
This label indicates that the pump cannot be run dry. There
must always be medium in the suction line and the pump when
the pump is started. Otherwise the pump will be damaged.
