Hose cleaning
The hose can be cleaned in place without disassembly. It can be done with water or any other
appropriate agent as long as it is compatible with the hose material. Check not only the chemical
compatibility but also the allowable temperature for the utilized hose.
3.8.
Hose replacement
The hose can be replaced without the whole pump disassembly. Make sure that suction and
discharge valves are closed before disconnecting of the pump.
In order to avoid costly downtime of the pump, it is recommended to inspect the hose after about
90% of the lifetime of the first hose as part of preventive maintenance.
NOTE!
Proceed with this procedure only after familiarizing oneself with the instructions at the
beginning of chapter 3.
