2. Use
2.1. Intended use
KNF pumps are to transfer, evacuate and compress gases and
gas-fluid-mixtures.
Owner's responsibility
Only install and operate the pumps under the operating parameters
and conditions described in Chapter 4, Technical data. Only com-
pletely installed pumps may be taken into service.
Before using a medium, check whether the medium can be trans-
ferred danger-free in the specific application case.
Before using the pump, check the compatibility of the materials of
the pump head, pump housing, diaphragm, seals and valves with
the medium.
The temperature of the medium must lie within the permissible
temperature range (see Chapter 4).
The transferred media should not contain particles as these can
prevent the pump from working correctly. If this cannot be guaran-
teed, a filter < 50
m with sufficiently large filter area must be used
upstream of the pump.
See the type- plate or data sheet for full electrical and pneumatic
data.
2.2. Improper use
DANGER
The pumps must not be operated in an explo-
sive atmosphere.
The pumps are not suitable for transferring dusts and liquids.
Please contact your local KNF partner for special designs that
are not included in the technical specification.
An overpressure must not be applied to the suction side of the
pump.
