avoid unintentional restart of the unit, the control panel and the auxiliary control circuit.
DANGER: Electrical hazard
If the unit is connected to the frequency converter, disconnect the mains power supply and
wait at least 10 minutes for the residual current to dissipate.
DANGER: Explosion due to overheating
Observe the operating limits for pressure, temperature and speed.
DANGER: Explosion
The unit must be filled and vented properly before it can be started. It is prohibited to operate
the unit when dry, not primed and below the rated flow rate.
DANGER: Burns and explosion due to temperature increase caused by contact between
rotating and fixed components
If the coupling is misaligned, it may overheat or overheat the bearings, resulting in burns and
explosion. Check the alignment of the motor-pump coupling at the operating temperatures
and pressures.
DANGER: Hot and/or toxic liquid spillage
It is prohibited to operate the unit with the on-off valves on the suction and discharge sides
closed. If the unit needs to operate for more than a few seconds with the discharge valve
