➢
If the air humidity is high, use of a water separator or air dryer is recommended.
Otherwise on the air discharge side due to decompression, icing on the muffler can
appear causing it to shrink and eventually it can shoot out of its socket.
➢
If the ambient air is humid, icing can occur outside of the muffler. In such case it is
recommended to use a longer exhaust of the compressed air (ca. 500 mm / 19,7’’).
➢
If there is possibility of freezing at the air exhaust, it is good to pre-heat the air before
it reaches the air intake in order to raise the dew point of the air.
NOTE! Make sure that the air temperature does not exceed 50°C (122°F).
➢
If icing / freezing is still a problem with the standard muffler, we recommend using our
heavy duty metal muffler. Contact us for more information.
2.3. Pump stopping
The pump can be stopped in two ways:
1)
By closing of the discharge valve. The pressure from the system will stop the pump
automatically. The pump restarts easily when the valve is opened again.
NOTE! When using this method keep in mind that air must be supplied to the pump.
This is essential to keep the diaphragms in balance what protects them from premature
failure.
2)
By cutting off the air supply.
NOTE! When using this method make sure that the discharge valve is opened to relief
the pumps pressure.
2.4. Residual risks
Even with proper application and observance of all points listed in this operating manual,
there is still an estimable and unexpected residual risk when using the pumps. It may leak,
fail due to wear, application-related causes or system-related circumstances.
2.5. Disposal after expiration
The metallic components like aluminium, stainless steel and carbon steel can be recycled.
Plastic parts are not recyclable and must be disposed of as residual waste. The pump must
be disposed of properly, according to local regulations. It should be noted that potentially
dangerous fluid residues may remain in the pump and can create a hazard to the operator
or the environment, therefore the pump has to thoroughly cleaned before disposal.
2.6. Actions in emergency
In case of transferred liquid leakage, the air supply have to be closed and the pressure
released. During spillage of an aggressive liquid, local and national safety rules must be
followed.
