Danger!
Pumping flammable or explosive li-
quids is life-threatening.
Only use pumps of explosion-proof
design (Ex) in potentially explosive
atmospheres in accordance with the
corresponding specifications.
Caution!
Pumping any liquid which is chemically
aggressive to the pump material or
contains abrasive components can
destroy the pump.
Use bronze or stainless steel as the
pump material for these media.
The media used for the intended operation of the pump and
the associated hazards are the sole responsibility of the
operating company.
Danger!

1.4.4 Shaft sealing
The shaft sealing on the pump side is effected in all models
via a maintenance-free mechanical seal, which is indepen-
dent of the direction of rotation and made from wear-resistant
silicon carbide (SiC). Depending on the pump model, either a
shaft seal ring or a mechanical seal made of carbon/chromi-
um molybdenum cast seals the drive side. The intermediate
casing is filled with lubricating oil to lubricate and cool the
mechanical seals. This oil even enables a short-term dry
run. The intermediate casing can be optionally monitored
for leaks using a sealing electrode.
Caution!
Dry running the pump will destroy the
mechanical seal!
Ensure there is adequate cooling and
lubrication for the sliding surfaces.
1.4.2 Impellers
Open single vane impeller (Q) with automatic
non-clogging system for pumped media with
the roughest solids and for an operationally
reliable supply output (practically clog-free).
Open twin vane impeller (Q) with automatic
non-clogging system for pumped media
with rough solids and for a gentle supply
output. High running smoothness due to
symmetrical form.
Vortex impeller (W) for pumped media with
very rough solids and gas pockets and
trapped air.
Closed multi vane impeller (K) for dirty pum-
ping media contaminated with solids.
Rubber coated vortex impeller (W) for ab-
rasive pumping media (UNIVERS-T-SG).
Vortex impeller (W) with attached slitters for
pumping media that contain substances to
be crushed (UNIVERS-T-PO).
1.4.3 Installation
The pumps can be delivered in various installations:
Installation S = Stationary installation with
suspension device with or
without cooling jacket
Installation T= Transportable installation
with adjustable foot with
or without cooling jacket
for changing installation

The measurements and installation dimensions can be found
in section 5.2 'Dimensions'; for weight details; refer to section
5.3 'Technical data'. The instruction documents and the name
plate data specify the performance and connection data of
the respective pump type.
Performance verification of the pumps is carried out accor-
ding to DIN EN ISO 9906 (Rotodynamic pumps - Hydraulic
performance acceptance tests), Class 2.
Danger!
Air bubbles or accumulations of gas
around the mechanical seal create a
potentially fatal explosive atmosphere.
Provide a constant supply of pumped
media to the supply and pressure pipes
as well as to the interior of the pump
that is in contact with the liquid.
Provide appropriate monitoring
measures to ensure this.
1.4.5 Drive
A three-phase A.C motor, impermeable to presswater drives
the pump. The motor is cooled directly by the medium pas-
sing through the motor (wet- well installation) By the clog-free
by-pass cooling system the pumped medium flows through
the cooling jacket (cooling jacket design).
Danger!
Impermissible heating of the three-
phase motor can create a potentially
fatal explosive atmosphere.
Explosion proof pumps must always
remain completely submerged
Important!
Observe the limit temperatures specified in section 1.4.7
‘General data’.
