In order to ensure smooth operation, check the
tightness and function of the unit:
– Once per year, twice per year in the case of
biogas; check for internal and external
tightness, see page 4 (5 Tightness test).
– Check electrical installations once a year in line
with local regulations; pay particular attention to
the PE wire, see page 2 (4 Wiring).
➔
If the flow rate has dropped, clean the strainer.
➔
We recommend replacing the seals, see accesso-
ries, page 6 (8.2 Seal set VA 1–2).
