➢
The fluid remaining in the connected piping, as well as in the pump itself, may expand
because of freezing or heat, which may cause damage to the pump or/and piping, and lead
to leakage of the fluid.
➢
Some parts of the hose pump can become hot during operation and cause burns, therefore
make sure to use appropriate protection when handling the pump.
1.8.6.
Rotating parts
Do not tamper with the protection of the rotating parts, do not touch or approach rotating
parts in movement.
1.8.7.
Cleaning and disinfection
Cleaning and disinfection of the pump system is of greatest importance when the pump is used
in a food process installation. Use of a pump system that is NOT cleaned or disinfected can
cause contamination of the product
1.9.
Installation recommendations
➢
If liquid contains sold particles bigger than max allowable size for the corresponding pump
size, a strainer on the suction side should be used.
➢
Manometers or pressure sensors must always be installed on the suction and discharge
side of the pump to determine proper operation of the pump.
➢
The suction and dishcarge piping must be fastened properly so that no strain occurs on
the pump manifolds.
➢
It is recommended to install a check-valve on the discharge side in order to protect the
pump from water hammer effect that can be created in the discharge pipeline.
➢
The suction line should be as short and straight as possible.
➢
A gate valve could be installed on the discharge line for easier pump disconnection from
the pipeline (
ATTENTION!
The gate valve should never be closed during pump
operation).
➢
A pressure relief valve must be assembled obligatory on the discharge side by the
customer if overpressure in the system is possible. A device must be incorporated into the
pump, system, or drive, to prevent the pump exceeding the rated pressure.
