Hence, make sure the temperature of the medium is sufficiently be-
low the ignition temperature of the medium, even when it is com-
pressed to the maximum permissible operating pressure of the
pump. The maximum permissible operating pressure of the pump
is stated in the technical specifications (Chapter 4).
If necessary, consider any external sources of energy, such as ra-
diation, that may add heat to the medium.
In case of doubt, consult the KNF customer service.
Store all replacement parts in a protected manner and dispose of
them properly in accordance with the applicable environmental pro-
tection regulations. Observe the respective national and interna-
tional regulations. This especially applies to parts contaminated
with toxic substances.
For the purposes of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, pumps
are “partly completed machinery”, and are therefore to be regarded
as not ready for use. Partly completed machinery may not be com-
missioned until such time as it has been determined that the ma-
chine in which the partly completed machinery is to be assembled
is in conformity with the provisions of the Machinery Directive
2006/42/EC. The following essential requirements of Annex I of Di-
rective 2006/42/EC (general principles) are applied and observed:
−
General Principles No. 1
−
No. 1.1.2. / 1.1.3. / 1.3.1. / 1.3.3. / 1.3.4. / 1.4.1. / 1.5.1.* /
1.5.2.* / 1.5.8. / 1.5.9. / 1.7.4. / 1.7.4.1. / 1.7.4.3.

As these partly completed machinery are OEM-models the power
supplies and the equipment for disconnecting and switching-off the
partly completed machinery respectively have to be considered
when mounting as well as over-current and overload protective
gear.
In addition a protection against mechanical parts in motion and hot
parts, if existing, has to be provided when mounting.
The pumps conform to the Directive 2011/65/EU.
