2. INTRODUCTION
The Diaphragm Pumps of UDOR, with radial piston kinematic drive, are designed and manufactured
to pumps or transfer
water
or
pesticides and herbicides
in water solution to be used according to
the instructions of the actual producers.
They are generally driven by: electric motors, endothermic petrol or diesel engines and hydraulic
motors, tractor P.T.O.. Couplings may be fulfilled by means of transmission shaft, direct flanging,
reduction unit or multiplier, joints, pulleys and belts.
The Pump is supplied to be installed on a more complex machine or plant; the
manufacturer of such machine or plant shall add all the information related to safety of
the assembled machine/plant fulfilled.
3. INTENDED
USE
The Diaphragm Pumps of UDOR are designed for use in machines or systems that transfer water or
pesticides or herbicides, under pressure, such as the following for example: Sprayers, Mist Sprayers,
Herbicide Spray Booms, Gardening, Civil and Industrial Washing Systems, Drain and Pipe Cleaning,
Fire-fighting, Antifreeze Systems.
The temperature of the workplace shall be between: Min. 0°C (32°F) - Max.45°C (113°F)
The Pump cannot be used submerged under any type of liquid.
4. OPERATIONAL
RESTRICTION
The specifications of the liquid to be used are described in detail herewith: do not use for
different liquids; in particular, it is NOT possible to use UDOR Pumps in the following
conditions:
- In the presence of water with high salt content, such as seawater for example.
- In workplaces where there is a corrosive or explosive atmosphere.
- In the presence of any liquid that is not compatible with the constructional material of the
Pump.
- To pump paint, solvents, fuel and any flammable liquid (not suitable for ATEX workplaces).
- Tor foodstuffs.
- To wash people, animals, live electrical or electronic equipment.
- To wash the Pump itself.
5. GENERAL
WARNINGS
- Never start the Pump under pressure.
- Constantly check the state of wear of the pipes and relevant fittings, especially those under
pressure. Pipes with signs of abrasion or that do not guarantee a perfect seal shall be
replaced.
- Protect rotating parts with a cover to prevent contact.
- The Pump is designed to be integrated in a machine or system, with various supply systems,
which may make the noise level vary, even quite substantially. The manufacturer of such
machine or system shall assess the level of noise emitted by the assembled machine or
system and inform the user appropriately, also in relation to the use of suitable personal
protection equipment.
6. BEFORE START UP
6.1 LIQUIDS TO BE PUMPED
The Pump is designed and manufactured to tranfer water or pesticides and herbicides in water
solution to be used according to the instructions of the actual producers.
The liquid intaken must be free from sand or other solid particles in suspension.
The liquid intaken shall have viscosity and density similar to water.
The temperature of the liquid to be pumped must be between 5°C (41°F) and 38°C (100°F).
Any other use is not admitted unless authorised in writing by the Engineering Department of UDOR
