2 Safety
!DANGER
All the information contained in this section refers to hazardous situations.
In addition to the present general safety information the action-related safety
information given in the other sections must be observed.
2.1 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.
▪Comply with all the safety instructions given in the individual sections of this
operating manual.
▪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 and markings 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 not
taken into account.
2.2 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 to handle the fluids described in the data sheet or product
literature of the pump model.
▪Never operate the system without the fluid to be handled.
▪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×QBEP to minimise the risk of clogging/hardening.
▪Avoid duty points for continuous operation at very low speeds and small flow
rates (<0.7×QBEP).
▪Observe the minimum flow rate and maximum flow rate 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 system (prevention of
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.

provided by sufficiently trained specialist personnel. 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.
2.4 Consequences and risks caused by non-compliance with this manual
▪Non-compliance with these operating instructions will lead to forfeiture of
warranty cover and of any and all rights to claims for damages.

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 stopping 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.
2.7 Safety information for maintenance, inspection and installation
▪Modifications or alterations of the pump (set) are only permitted with the
manufacturer's prior consent.

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 or belt drive.
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 casing to the suction nozzle. At the rear side of
the impeller, the shaft (4) enters the casing 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)
linked with the pump casing and/or casing cover.
Sealing The pump is sealed by two bi-directional mechanical seals in tandem arrangement.
A lubricant reservoir in-between the seals ensures cooling and lubrication of the
mechanical seals.

5.1 Safety regulations
DANGER
Excessive temperatures in the shaft seal area
Explosion hazard!
▷Never operate a pump (set) with gland packing in potentially explosive
atmospheres.
NOTE
Operating pump sets with gland packings in combination with a frequency
inverter/ variable speed system is not recommended.
5.2 Checks to be carried out prior to installation
Place of installation
WARNING
Installation on a mounting surface which is unsecured and cannot support the load
Personal injury and damage to property!
▷Use a concrete of compressive strength class C12/15 which meets the
requirements of exposure class XC1 to EN 206.
▷The mounting surface must be set, even, and level.
▷Observe the weights indicated.
1. Check the structural requirements.
All structural work required must have been prepared in accordance with the
dimensions stated in the outline drawing/general arrangement drawing.
5.3 Installing the pump set in a horizontal position
DANGER
Electrostatic charging
Explosion hazard!
Damage to the pump set!
▷Connect the potential equalisation conductor to the earthing terminal
provided.
▷Make sure that the connection between pump and baseplate is electrically
conductive.
▷Screws, bolts, nuts and shims must not be coated or the coating must be
removed.
▷Provide potential equalisation between the pump set and the foundation.
