2 Safety
11 of 80
RPH
1316.8015/01-EN
▪When taking the pump set out of service always adhere to the procedure
described in the manual. (ðSection6.1.13,Page38) (ðSection6.3,Page40)
▪Decontaminate pumps which handle fluids posing a health hazard.
(ðSection7.3,Page49)
▪As soon as the work has been completed, re-install and re-activate any safety-
relevant devices and protective devices. Before returning the product to service,
observe all instructions on commissioning. (ðSection6.1,Page31)
2.8 Unauthorised modes of operation
Never operate the pump (set) outside the limits stated in the data sheet and in this
manual.
The warranty relating to the operating reliability and safety of the supplied pump
(set) is only valid if the equipment is used in accordance with its intended use.
(ðSection2.2,Page9)
2.9 Explosion protection
!DANGER
Always observe the information on explosion protection given in this section when
operating the product in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Only pumps/pump sets marked as explosion-proof and identified as such in the data
sheet may be used in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Special conditions apply to the operation of explosion-proof pump sets to EU
Directive 2014/34/EU (ATEX).
Especially adhere to the sections in this manual marked with the symbol opposite and
the following sections, (ðSection2.9.1,Page11) to (ðSection2.9.4,Page12)
The explosion-proof status of the pump set is only assured if the pump set is used in
accordance with its intended use.
Never operate the pump set outside the limits stated in the data sheet and on the
name plate.
Prevent impermissible modes of operation at all times.
2.9.1 Marking
Pump The marking on the pump refers to the pump part only.
Example of such marking:
II 2G Ex h IIC T5-T1 Gb
Refer to the individual Temperature Limits table for the temperatures permitted for
the individual pump variants.
The pump complies with the requirements of type of protection constructional safety
"c" to ISO80079-37.
Shaft coupling An EC manufacturer's declaration is required for the shaft coupling; the shaft
coupling must be marked accordingly.
Motor The motor must be considered separately.
2.9.2 Temperature limits
In normal pump operation, the highest temperatures are to be expected on the
surface of the pump casing, at the shaft seal and in the bearing areas.
The surface temperature at the pump casing corresponds to the temperature of the
fluid handled. If the pump is heated in addition, the operator of the system is
responsible for observing the specified temperature class and fluid temperature
(operating temperature).
The table below lists the temperature classes and the resulting theoretical
temperature limits of the fluid handled (a possible temperature rise in the shaft seal
area has already been taken into account).
The temperature class specifies the maximum permissible temperature at the surface
of the pump set during operation.
For the permissible operating temperature of the pump in question refer to the data
sheet.

T3 365°F
T4 248°F
T5 185°F
T6 Only after consultation
with the manufacturer
Temperature class T5 Based on an ambient temperature of 104°F and proper maintenance and operation,
compliance with temperature class T5 is warranted in the area of the rolling element
bearings. If the ambient temperature exceeds 104 °F, contact the manufacturer.
Temperature class T6 A special design is required to comply with the requirements of temperature class T6
in the bearing area.
Misuse, malfunctions or non-compliance with the instructions may result in
substantially higher temperatures.
If the pump is to be operated at a higher temperature, if there is no data sheet or if
the pump is part of a pool of pumps, contact KSB for the maximum permissible
operating temperature.
2.9.3 Monitoring equipment
The pump (set) must only be operated within the limits specified in the data sheet
and on the name plate.
If the system operator cannot warrant compliance with these operating limits,
appropriate monitoring devices must be used.
Check whether monitoring equipment is required to ensure that the pump set
functions properly.
Contact KSB for further information about monitoring equipment.
2.9.4 Operating limits
The minimum flow rates indicated in refer to water and water-like fluids handled.
Longer operating periods with these fluids and at the flow rates indicated will not
cause an additional increase in the temperatures at the pump surface. However, if
the physical properties of the fluids handled are different from water, it is essential
to check whether an additional heat build-up may occur and if the minimum flow
rate must therefore be increased. The calculation formula in can be used to check
whether additional heat build-up may lead to a dangerous temperature increase at
the pump surface.

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
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.
Store the pump (set) in a dry, protected room where the atmospheric humidity is as
constant as possible.
Rotate the shaft by hand once a month, e.g. via the motor fan.
If properly stored indoors, the pump set is protected for a maximum of 12 months.
New pumps/pump sets are supplied by our factory duly prepared for storage.
For storing a pump (set) which has already been operated, the shutdown measures
must be adhered to. (ðSection6.3.1,Page40)
3.4 Return to supplier
1. Drain the pump as per operating instructions. (ðSection7.3,Page49)
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 also neutralise the pump and blow through with anhydrous inert gas to
ensure drying.
4. Always complete and enclose a certificate of decontamination when returning
the pump.
Indicate any safety measures and decontamination measures taken.

Design The pump is designed with an axial fluid inlet and a radial or tangential outlet. The
hydraulic system runs in its own bearings and is connected to the motor by a shaft
coupling.
Function The fluid enters the pump axially via the suction nozzle (6) and is accelerated
outward by the rotating impeller (7). In the flow passage of the pump casing the
kinetic energy of the fluid is converted into pressure energy. The fluid is pumped to
the discharge nozzle (2), where it leaves the pump. The clearance gap (1) prevents
any fluid from flowing back from the pump casing into the suction nozzle. At the
rear side of the impeller, the shaft (4) enters the hydraulic system via the casing cover
(3). The shaft passage through the cover is sealed to atmosphere with a shaft seal (8).
The shaft runs in rolling element bearings (9 and 10), which are supported by a
bearing bracket (5) connected to the casing cover.
Sealing The pump is sealed by a standardised mechanical seal.
