▪ When taking the pump set out of service always adhere to the procedure
described in the manual. (
ð Section 6.1.6, Page 30) ( ð Section 6.3, Page 36)
▪
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. (

Section 6.1, Page 27)
2.8 Unauthorised modes of operation
Never operate the pump (set) outside the limits stated in the data sheet and in this
manual.
The warranty relating to the operating reliability and safety of the supplied pump
(set) is only valid if the equipment is used in accordance with its intended use.

2.9 Explosion protection
!
DANGER
Always observe the information on explosion protection given in this section when
operating the product in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Only pumps/pump sets marked as explosion-proof and identified as such in the data
sheet may be used in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Special conditions apply to the operation of explosion-proof pump sets to EU
Directive 2014/34/EU (ATEX).
Especially adhere to the sections in this manual marked with the symbol opposite and
the following sections, (
ð Section 2.9.1, Page 10) to ( ð Section 2.9.4, Page 11)
The explosion-proof status of the pump set is only assured if the pump set is used in
accordance with its intended use.
Never operate the pump set outside the limits stated in the data sheet and on the
name plate.
Prevent impermissible modes of operation at all times.
2.9.1 Marking
Pump The marking on the pump refers to the pump part only.
Example of such marking:
II 2 G c TX (EN 13463-1) or II 2G Ex h IIC T5-T1 Gb (ISO 80079-36)
Refer to the individual Temperature Limits table for the temperatures permitted for
the individual pump variants.
The pump complies with the requirements of type of protection constructional safety
"c" to ISO 80079-37.
Shaft coupling An EC manufacturer's declaration is required for the shaft coupling; the shaft
coupling must be marked accordingly.
Motor The motor must be considered separately.
2.9.2 Temperature limits
In normal pump operation, the highest temperatures are to be expected at the
surface of the pump casing and at the shaft seal.
The surface temperature at the pump casing corresponds to the temperature of the
fluid handled. If the pump is heated, the operator of the system is responsible for
observing the specified temperature class and fluid temperature (operating
temperature).
The table below lists the temperature classes and the resulting theoretical
temperature limits of the fluid handled. (A possible temperature rise in the shaft seal
area has already been taken into account).
The temperature class specifies the maximum permissible temperature at the surface
of the pump set during operation. For the permissible operating temperature of the
pump in question refer to the data sheet.
