The pump is to be used only for the applications specified on the confirming order for which
POMPETRAVAINI has selected the design, materials of construction and tested the pump to meet the
order specifications. Therefore, the pump or system

ING THE INFORMATIONS MARKED ON PUMP’S NAMEPLATES AND SERVICE CARDS
The machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and the ATEX Directive 2014/34/EU require the marking of certain information on
the pump’s nameplates. The pump nameplate must be applied so that it is not easily removable and remains legible for
long time.
Furthermore, according to the regulations in force, it is necessary to provide the machines with a document, the
Declaration of Conformity, to the safety requirements imposed by the Machinery Directive for all pumps (usually named
as EC Declaration of Conformity) and to the ATEX Directive for pumps intended for use in environments subject to the
directive (usually named ATEX Declaration of Conformity).
Pompetravaini has chosen to make each Declaration
supplied with the pump’s documentation unique, applying on it an
adhesive tag that incorporate the information of the pump nameplate applied on the pump.
In this way each Declaration of conformity is uniquely identified with the same serial number as the pump for which it was
issued. By convention in Pompetravaini this tag is called Service Card.
Markings on nameplates of pumps and vacuum systems
The pump nameplate must bear all the all the mandatory information required by the applicable directives (Machinery
Directive and ATEX Directive if requested). The appearance and arrangement of the markings on the nameplate may
differ depending on the type of pump and the recipient of the pump. Or for some branches of Pompetravaini customized
executions are provided. The minimum information required by the regulations remains present in the various possible
configurations.
The vacuum system packages are provided with a single nameplate that identify them as an assembly of pump, or pumps,
with vessel and accessories. The system nameplate is applied on the body of the vacuum pump (or on the pumps if the
system has more than one) and the serial number is unique for the whole system.
For Pompetravaini everything that is supplied as a vacuum package, identified by the serial number on the nameplate
and for the bill of material associated to the serial number, it is integral part of the package and therefore included in the
EC Declaration of Conformity and also ATEX Declaration of Conformity if required by the Order Confirmation.
