CAUTION
•
Lifting pump
If a lifting rope or chain breaks or is cut when lifting the pump, a fatal or serious
injury to person may result from the accident. Select a lifting rope or chain which is
strong enough for the load of the pump. Furthermore, no person should be allowed
to get under the pump while it is being lifted.
•
Power OFF
Make sure no one turns on the power switch while work is being done on the pump.
Be sure to turn off the power switch before you start any maintenance/repair work
concerning the pump. If the working site is noisy or under conditions of low visibility,
you should display a notice which clearly states "POWER Off(Maintenance)," near
the power switch in order to inform other personnel about the situation. Power ON
executed by any other person than the operator/service personnel may result in a
serious accident. The operator must take special precautions to avoid accidents.
•
Storage limit
Do not store the pump in places where an explosive atmosphere is located, dust is
generated, or corrosive gas (such as chlorine gas) is present. Otherwise, a fire may
be caused or the health of personnel may be jeopardized.
•
Ventilate site
When handling a toxic liquid or odorant, ventilate the working site well. In addition,
wear protective gear (protective mask, goggles, gloves, etc.).
•
Disposal of used pump
Disposal of used or damaged pumps must be done in accordance with local laws
and regulations. (Consult a licensed industrial waste products disposing company.)
•
Send-back to Iwaki
When sending the pump back to Iwaki, drain the liquid out of the pump and clean
thoroughly with water to prevent any accidents during transportation.
•
Pump stroke speed
Do not run the pump at a stroke speed higher than the max. stroke speed which is
shown on the item 4. Specifications on page 8. A stroke speed higher than Max.
stroke speed shortens the life of the bellows.
