Safety Section
● Access limitation
The magnet drive pump has a pair of strong magnets (the magnet capsule
unit and drive magnet). The strong magnet field could adversely affect the
persons who are assisted by electronic devices such as the pacemaker.
● Turn off power before work
Be sure to turn off power to stop the pump and related devices before work.
Make sure no one turns on power by mistake while working on the pump,
otherwise it may result in a serious accident. If your working area is noisy or
dark, let other people know about the situation by displaying a notice such
as "POWER OFF (Maintenance)" near a power switch.
● Wear protective clothing
Always wear protective clothing such as an eye protection, chemical resist-
ant gloves, a mask and a face shield during disassembly, assembly or main-
tenance work.
● Use the eye bolt or lifting holes
Use the eye bolt when lifting the pump unit only or use lifting holes on the
base if the pump unit is mounted on it. In the latter case, do not use the eye
bolt. Use an overhead crane or any other proper transporting machine. Two
or more operators may be needed for ensuring safe transport depending on
the pump size and weight.
● Do not modify the pump
Alterations to the pump carries a high degree of risk. It is not the manufactur-
er’s responsibility for any failure or injury resulting from alterations to the pump.
● When handling dangerous liquid
For the transfer of the harmful liquid as mentioned below, be sure to conduct
daily inspection and maintenance for the prevention of liquid/gas leakage.
1. Explosive or flammable liquid
2. Corrosive chemicals
3. Harmful liquid or gas
● Ventilation
Fumes or vapours can be hazardous with certain solutions. Ensure proper
ventilation at the operation site.

Safety Section
CAUTION
● Do not catch the finger
Magnetic force of the pump is powerful. Take care not to catch the finger in the
bracket. Observe the instructions on the later pages for disassembly and assembly.
● Do not run pump dry
Do not run pump dry (operation without liquid). Friction heart builds up during
dry running operation and damages internal parts. If the pump is operated
with a suction side valve closed or without priming, the pump runs dry.
*The pumps with the carbon bearing (CF type) can run dry up to 1 hour without damaging internal
sliding parts (see page 15 as well).
● Qualified personnel only
The pump should be handled or operated by qualified personnel with a full
understanding of the pump. Any person not familiar with the product should
not take part in the operation or management of the pump.
● Do not use the pump/motor in any condition other than its intended purpose
The use of the pump/motor in any conditions other than those clearly specied
may result in failure or injury. Use this product in specied conditions only.
● Static electricity
When low electric conductivity liquids such as ultra-pure water and fluor inac-
tive liquid (e.g. FluorinertTM) are handled, static electricity may generate in
the pump and may cause static discharge. Take countermeasures to remove
static electricity.
● Commissioning
Friction heat builds up and damages the internal parts. Break in the pump to
expel gas from the pump and piping, especially when handling liquids that
generate gas bubbles (sodium hypochlorite or hydrogen peroxide).
●Spill precautions
Ensure protection and containment of solution in the event of plumbing or
pump damage (secondary containment).
●Disposal of a used pump
Remove a chemical and ush it out before the pump is disconnected from pip-
ing. Dispose of any used or damaged pump in accordance with local rules and
regulations. If necessary, consult a licensed industrial waste disposal company.
