TLS. safe operation
To ensure safe operation, the catchment chamber must always be filled with a sufficient
quantity of clean sealing fluid. The sealing fluid must exhibit good compatibility with the
pumping medium. The slight overpressure in the catchment chamber of up to 0.5 bar is
normal and serves as additional protection against the GLRD (mechanical seal) running
dry.
The external temperature of the catchment chamber must not exceed 70°C in normal
operation and must never exceed the boiling temperature of the sealing fluid. We
recommend monitoring the temperature and level of the sealing fluid. The medium being
sealed off must be in a liquid state against the GLRD (mechanical seal) of the SKS
(catchment chamber system) in every operating state.
If the stated operating limit data are observed and the instructions given in the manual are
followed, the SKS (catchment chamber system) should operate with no problems.

The minimum and maximum filling levels
are marked on the viewing glass. The
level of the sealing medium may increase
while the pump is in operation due to
heat. If the level is too high, the sealing
fluid may flow out. However, that will not
affect the functionality of the SKS.
To simplify filling the catchment
chamber, an oil gun can be ordered from
