Danger!
Rotating cardan shafts or rotating screw conveyors in the pump
can trap hands and other body parts.
Imminent danger: Severe or fatal injuries.
During pump operation, it must not be possible to insert your hands or other body parts
into
the hopper!
Screw conveyor operation may cause serious hand and other bodily injuries!
Secure any flexible parts of the hopper and suction housing with suitable limit switches,
which comply with EC-guidelines.
Use suitable fixed or locked/separating protective devices to ensure that it is impossible to
reach the screw conveyor with any limb, or that any opening of protective devices will
cause the plant to shut down immediately!
Make sure that pumps with plug-in shaft or quick change units run only at the given
direction.
Prior to carrying out any cleaning and maintenance work on the drive unit, this must be
switched into a voltage-free condition and secured against any unauthorized and
accidental restart!

Special Safety Notes for Immersion pumps
Immersion pumps take up the medium directly over the pumping set.
This danger area is in the medium at normal working process.
Use suitable fixed protective device to ensure that it is impossible to reach the pump inlet
of vertical pumps with any limb!

Special Safety Notes for Pumps with Heating Jacket
The suction casing / hopper of these pumps are equipped with a heating jacket and corresponding
connections for medium to flow through. This allows the pump casing to be heated.
The casing is designed for a pressure up to
3 bars
, unless a different pressure has been permitted
in the data sheet.
Possible damage
The heating circuit is to be run exclusively with water.
Make sure by proper pressure control devices the nominal pressure will not be exceeded.
The medium which may escape while the pressure control device is responding must be
drained riskless into a pressure-free area. Make sure in this draining path no shutoff
devices are installed
