2. Use
2.1. Intended use
KNF pumps are to transfer, evacuate and compress gases and
gas-fluid-mixtures.
Owner's responsibility
Only install and operate the pumps under the operating parameters
and conditions described in Chapter 4, Technical data. Only com-
pletely installed pumps may be taken into service.
Before using a medium, check whether the medium can be trans-
ferred danger-free in the specific application case.
Before using a medium, check the compatibility of the materials of
the pump head, pump housing, diaphragm, seals and valves with
the medium.
The temperature of the medium must lie within the permissible
temperature range (see Chapter 4).
The transferred gas should not contain particles as these can pre-
vent the pump from working correctly. If this cannot be guaranteed,
a filter < 50 m with sufficiently large filter area must be used up-
stream of the pump.
See the type- plate or data sheet for full electrical and pneumatic
data.
2.2. Improper use
DANGER
The pumps must not be operated in an explo-
sive atmosphere.
The pumps are not suitable for transferring dusts and liquids.
Please contact your local KNF partner for special designs that
are not included in the technical specification.
An overpressure must not be applied to the suction side of the
pump.

Translation of original Operating and Installation Instructions, English 4
3. Safety
Observe the safety precautions in Chapters
5. Installation and connection and 6. Operation.
The pumps are built according to the generally recognized rules of
technology and in accordance with the pertinent occupational
safety and accident prevention regulations. Nevertheless, dangers
may occur during their use which may lead to injuries to the user or
others, or to damage to the pump or other property.
Only use the pumps when they are in a good technical and proper
working order, in accordance with their intended use, observing the
safety advice within the Operating and Installation Instructions, at
all times.
Make sure that only trained and instructed personnel or specially
trained personnel work on the pumps. This especially applies to
assembly, connection and servicing work.
Make sure that all personnel have read and understood the Oper-
ating and Installation Instructions, and in particular the "Safety"
chapter.
Always ensure adherence to all pertinent accident prevention and
safety regulations when working on and operating the pump.
When transferring dangerous media, observe the safety regula-
tions for handling such media.
Be aware that the pumps are not designed to be explosion-proof.
Make sure the temperature of the medium is always sufficiently be-
low the ignition temperature of the medium, to avoid ignition or ex-
plosion. This also applies for unusual operational situations.
Note that the temperature of the medium increases when the pump
compresses the medium.
Hence, make sure the temperature of the medium is sufficiently be-
low the ignition temperature of the medium, even when it is com-
pressed to the maximum permissible operating pressure of the
pump.
If necessary, consider any external sources of energy, such as
radiation, that may add heat to the medium.
In case of doubt, consult the KNF customer service.
Always ensure adherence to all information stickers on the pumps,
such as flow direction arrows and type plates, and keep stickers in
legible condition.
All replacement parts should be properly stored and disposed of in
accordance with the applicable environmental protection regula-
tions. Observe the respective national and international regula-
tions. This especially applies to parts contaminated with toxic sub-
stances.
Dispose of all packaging in an environmentally-appropriate
manner. The packaging materials are recyclable.

Translation of original Operating and Installation Instructions, English 5
Dispose of end-of-life equipment in an environmentally
friendly manner. Use appropriate waste collection systems
for the disposal of end-of-life equipment. Used pumps con-
tain valuable recyclable materials.
For the purposes of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, pumps
are “partly completed machinery", and are therefore to be regarded
as not ready for use. Partly completed machinery may not be com-
missioned until such time as it has been determined that the ma-
chine in which the partly completed machinery is to be assembled
conforms to the provisions of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC.
The essential requirements of Annex I of Directive 2006/42/EC
(general principles) are applied and observed.
- General Principles No. 1
- No. 1.1.2. / 1.1.3. / 1.3.1. / 1.3.3. / 1.3.4. / 1.4.1. / 1.5.8. /
1.5.9. / 1.7.4. / 1.7.4.1. / 1.7.4.3.
As these partly completed machinery are OEM-models the power
supplies and the equipment for disconnecting and switching-off the
partly completed machinery respectively have to be considered
when mounting as well as over-current and overload protective
gear.
In addition a protection against mechanical parts in motion, hot
parts, if existing, has to be provided when mounting.
The pumps comply with the fundamental requirements of Directive
2011/65/EU (RoHS2).
All repairs to the pump(s) must be carried out by the relevant KNF
customer service team.
Exception service interval: see chapter 7.3.
