2.2 General
This operating manual contains general installation, operating and maintenance
instructions that must be observed to ensure safe operation of the system and
prevent personal injury and damage to property.
The safety information in all sections of this manual must be complied with.
The operating manual must be read and understood by the responsible specialist
personnel/operators prior to installation and commissioning.
The contents of this operating manual must be available to the specialist personnel
at the site at all times.
Information attached directly to the product must always be complied with and kept
in a perfectly legible condition at all times. This applies to, for example:
▪Arrow indicating the direction of rotation
▪Markings for connections
▪Name plate
The operator is responsible for ensuring compliance with all local regulations which
are not taken into account.
2.3 Intended use
▪The pump set must only be operated within the operating limits described in the
other applicable documents.
▪Only operate pump sets which are in perfect technical condition.
▪Do not operate partially assembled pump sets.
▪Only use the pump set to handle the fluids described in the data sheet or product
literature of the pump variant.
▪Never operate the pump set without the fluid to be handled.

2 Safety
11 of 128
Amarex KRT
▪Observe the limits for continuous duty specified in the data sheet or product
literature (Qmin and Qmax) (to prevent damage such as shaft fracture, bearing
failure, mechanical seal damage, etc).
▪When untreated waste water is handled, the duty points in continuous operation
lie within 0.7 to 1.2×Qoptto minimize the risk of clogging/hardening.
▪Avoid duty points for continuous operation at very low speeds and small flow
rates (<0.7xQopt).
▪Observe the minimum flow rates and maximum flow rates indicated in the data
sheet or product literature (to prevent overheating, mechanical seal damage,
cavitation damage, bearing damage, etc).
▪Do not throttle the flow rate on the suction side of the pump set (to prevent
cavitation damage).
▪Consult the manufacturer about any use or mode of operation not described in
the data sheet or product literature.
▪Only use the respective impeller types in combination with the fluids described
below.
Free-flow impeller
(impeller type F/F-max)
Closed single-channel impeller
(impeller type E/E-max)
Closed multi-channel impeller
(impeller type K/K-max)
Prevention of foreseeable misuse
▪Observe the minimum flow velocities required to fully open the swing check
valves to prevent the reduction of pressure and risk of clogging.
(Contact the manufacturer for the required minimum flow velocities/loss
coefficients.)
▪Never exceed the permissible operating limits (pressure, temperature, etc.)
specified in the data sheet or product literature.
▪Observe all safety information and instructions in this manual.
2.4 Personnel qualification and personnel training
All personnel involved must be fully qualified to transport, install, operate, maintain
and inspect the machinery this manual refers to.
The responsibilities, competence and supervision of all personnel involved in
transport, installation, operation, maintenance and inspection must be clearly
defined by the operator.
Deficits in knowledge must be rectified by sufficiently trained specialist personnel
training and instructing the personnel who will carry out the respective tasks. If
required, the operator can commission the manufacturer/supplier to train the
personnel.
Training on the pump (set) must always be supervised by technical specialist
personnel.
2.5 Consequences and risks caused by non-compliance with these operating
instructions
▪Non-compliance with these operating instructions will lead to forfeiture of
warranty cover and of any and all rights to claims for damages.
▪Non-compliance can, for example, have the following consequences:

explosive, toxic, hot) so as to avoid any danger to persons and the environment.
Adhere to all relevant laws.
▪Eliminate all electrical hazards. (In this respect refer to the applicable national
safety regulations and/or regulations issued by the local energy supply
companies.)
▪If shutting down the pump does not increase potential risk, fit an emergency
stop control device in the immediate vicinity of the pump (set) during pump set
installation.
2.8 Safety information for maintenance, inspection and installation
▪Modifications or alterations of the pump are only permitted with the
manufacturer's prior consent.
▪Use only original spare parts or parts authorized by the manufacturer. The use of
other parts can invalidate any liability of the manufacturer for resulting damage.
▪The operator ensures that maintenance, inspection and installation is performed
by authorized, qualified specialist personnel who are thoroughly familiar with
the manual.
▪Only carry out work on the pump (set) during standstill of the pump.
▪Only perform work on the pump set when it has been disconnected from the
power supply (de-energized).
▪The pump casing must have cooled down to ambient temperature.
▪Pump pressure must have been released and the pump must have been drained.

▪Use wooden supports to prevent any damage to the coating of the pump set.
3.2.2 Placing the pump set in a vertical position
To change the pump from a horizontal to a vertical position, attach lifting
equipment to the attachment point provided.
When the pump is pulled upright, the pump casing will act as a pivot. Place wooden
supports under the pivot points.
3.3 Storage/preservation
If commissioning is to take place some time after delivery, we recommend that the
following measures be taken for pump set storage:
CAUTION
Improper storage
Damage to the power cables!
▷Support the power cables at the cable entry to prevent permanent
deformation.
▷Only remove the protective caps from the power cables at the time of
installation.

3 Transport/Temporary Storage/Disposal

Amarex KRT
CAUTION
Damage during storage due to humidity, dirt or vermin
Corrosion/contamination of the pump (set)!
▷For outdoor storage cover the pump (set) or the packaged pump (set) and
accessories with waterproof material.
CAUTION
Wet, contaminated or damaged openings and connections
Leakage or damage to the pump!
▷Clean and cover pump openings and connections as required prior to putting
the pump into storage.
Table5: Ambient conditions for storage
Ambient condition Value
Relative humidity 5% to 85%
(non-condensing)
Ambient temperature -4°F to 158°F [-20°C to +70°C]
▪Store the pump set under dry and vibration-free conditions, if possible in its
original packaging.
1. Spray-coat the inside wall of the pump casing, and in particular the impeller
clearance areas, with a preservative.
2. Spray the preservative through the suction and discharge nozzles.
It is advisable to then close the pump nozzles (e.g. with plastic caps or similar).
NOTE
Observe the manufacturer's instructions for application/removal of the preservative.
3. Rotate the impeller by hand once every three months.
3.4 Return to supplier
1. Drain the pump as per operating instructions. (ðSection7.3,Page77)
2. Flush and clean the pump, particularly if it has been used for handling noxious,
explosive, hot or other hazardous fluids.
3. If the pump has handled fluids whose residues could lead to corrosion damage
in the presence of atmospheric humidity or could ignite upon contact with
oxygen, the pump must also be neutralized, and anhydrous inert gas must be
blown through the pump to ensure drying.
4. Always complete and enclose a certificate of decontamination when returning
the pump.
Always indicate any safety measures and decontamination measures taken.
(ðSection10,Page122)
NOTE
If required, a blank certificate of decontamination can be downloaded from the
KSB web site at: www.ksb.com/certificate_of_decontamination

3.5 Disposal
WARNING
Fluids handled, consumables and operating supplies which are hot or pose a
health hazard
Hazard to persons and the environment!
▷Collect and properly dispose of the flushing fluid and of any residues of the
fluid handled.
▷Wear safety clothing and a protective mask if required.
▷Observe all legal regulations on the disposal of fluids posing a health hazard.
1. Dismantle the pump (set).
Collect greases and other lubricants during dismantling.
2. Separate and sort the pump materials, e.g. by:
- Metals
- Plastics
- Electronic waste
- Greases and other lubricants
3. Dispose of materials in accordance with local regulations or in another
controlled manner.
