Warning
Condensate accumulated inside the pump head destroys the pump.
Condensate can form, for example, if the pressure dew point is ex-
ceeded or if there is a malfunction in the sampling process. If conden-
sate is to be expected, then the following measures must be taken:
Turn the pump head downwards so that the gas connections point
downwards.
Mount the pump at the highest point in the system. If this is not
possible, route the outlet tubing away from the pump at an incline.
These measures allow condensate formed in the pump outlet to flow
out of the pump head and be safely drained.
M&C
recommends: When transferring aggressive media, flush the pump prior to switch off
(see chapter 16.2) to increase the service life of the diaphragm.
SWITCHING PUMP ON AND OFF
Switching pump on
The pump may start up against pressure and/or vacuum during switch-on (see chapter 9). This also
applies in operating following a brief power failure.
Switching pump off
M&C
recommends: When transferring aggressive media, flush the pump prior to switch off (see chapter
16.2) to increase the service life of the diaphragm.
Open pressure and suction lines to normal atmospheric pressure. (Relieve the pump pneumatically.)
SETTING THE FLOW
Caution
Excessive pressure will destroy the pump and the downstream analyz-
ers.
Unnecessarily high pressure increases the risk of exceeding the pres-
sure dew point (condensate accumulation in the pump head) and can
reduce the service life of the pump. Downstream analyzers may be
destroyed if the pressure set at the pump throttle valve exceeds the
maximum operating pressure of the analyzer.
Set the required pressure for the analysis system.
Check the pressure.
