▪
Safety regulations for handling hazardous substances
▪ Applicable standards, directives and laws
2.6 Safety information for the user/operator
▪ Fit protective equipment (e.g. contact guards) supplied by the operator for hot,
cold or moving parts, and check that the equipment functions properly.
▪ Do not remove any protective equipment (e.g. contact guards) during operation.
▪ Provide the personnel with protective equipment and make sure it is used.
▪ Contain leakages of hazardous fluids (e.g. explosive, toxic, hot) so as to avoid any
danger to persons and the environment. Observe all legal requirements.
▪ The design of mechanical seals always produces a small amount of leakage.
▪
Higher leakage may occur especially in the running-in phase. The leakage must
be drained off in a controlled way
2.7 Safety information for maintenance, inspection and installation
▪ Modifications or alterations of the mechanical seal require the manufacturer's
prior consent.
▪ Use only original spare parts or parts/components authorised by the
manufacturer. The use of other parts/components can invalidate any liability of
the manufacturer for resulting damage.
▪ The operator ensures that maintenance, inspection and installation is performed
by authorised, qualified specialist personnel who are thoroughly familiar with
the manual.
▪ Only carry out work on the mechanical seal when the shaft is not rotating.
For mechanical seals installed in pump sets:
▪ The pump (set) must have cooled down to ambient temperature.
▪
Pump pressure must have been released and the pump must have been drained.
▪ When taking the pump set out of service always adhere to the procedure
described in the manual.
▪ Decontaminate pumps which handle fluids posing a health hazard.
▪
As soon as the work has been completed, re-install and re-activate any safety-
relevant devices and protective devices. Before returning the product to service,
observe all instructions on commissioning.
▪
Observe the relevant sections of the corresponding pump operating manual.
