These operating instructions include safety instructions.
Follow all instructions in order to prevent personal injury, damages to the
environment or damage to materials.
2.1 Basic safety advice
Basic safety advice includes instructions that ensure that the device is operated safely
or kept in a safe condition.
Not complying with the following safety advice can have the following consequences:
•personal injury, environmental or material damage;
•important functions in the device fail;
•maintenance and servicing methods prescribed are unsuccessful;
•any rights to claim indemnification are rendered null and void.
To protect yourself and the environment, please comply with the following
instructions.
If necessary, brief people about the safety advice and warnings.
Malfunctions
Operating the device if it is not operating correctly could be fatal, harm the environment
and cause material damage to the device.
If a malfunction occurs switch the device off immediately.
Hazardous media
The device material could be destroyed if you use media not intended for use to operate
the device. Physical injury, environmental damage and material damage to the device
may result.
Before operating the device with media not intended for use, check that the material
the device is made of is compatible with the media.
Protective gear
Operating or carrying out work on the device without protective gear could cause
serious injury.
When handling the device, please wear the protective clothing required.
Hot surfaces or components
The device can become hot depending on the media used, the area where the device is
fitted and the type of operation. Heat can cause serious injuries.
Depending on the wall temperature, provide heat insulation for the device when
fitting it.
Fit protective devices that prevent contact with the device.
Shut-off device

SAFETY ADVICE
Excessive noise
During operation, noise emitted from the device can harm hearing and the environment.
When fitting the device, take steps to protect against noise.
During operation, wear suitable hearing protection.
Please observe statutory regulations on noise protection.
Corrosion
Stainless steel components have been pickled and passivated to protect them from
chemicals. A primer has been applied to components made of carbon steel/ductile cast
iron. This primer is not sufficient to prevent any impact from ambient conditions if the
device is operated outdoors. Operating the device outdoors without any extra corrosion
protection will lead to material damage.
When operating the device outdoors, take appropriate precautions to protect it from
corrosion.
Maintenance and servicing work
The device is only safe to operate if in perfect condition. The operator is responsible for
the device being in a proper and safe condition.
Ensure that the specified maintenance work is carried out regularly.
Carry out the specified checks before operating the device.
2.2 Proper usage
The purpose of the device is to convey media such as liquids and solids in the process
concerned. The media are conveyed under higher pressure, mixed and transferred to
the next stage in the process.
The device may only be operated within the confines specified and in line with technical
specifications. Chapter 12 Technical data
The device is only suitable for operation outdoors if appropriate protection from
corrosion has been applied.
Incorrect handling or other usage of the device is not as intended and is therefore not
allowed. The manufacturer accepts no liability for any damage that might be caused as
a result.
2.3 Danger zones
Depending on how the device is used, the liquid applied and the type of connection,
danger zones are defined as the areas where the motive medium and suction medium
enter and where the mixed flow is discharged, as well as the area of the body.
Only stay in danger zones if there is an urgent need and with due caution.
Avoid staying in danger zones unnecessarily.
