8.6 Cleaning the pump

No solvent cleaning agents may be used to clean the pump as they
could create an uncontrollable explosive atmosphere.

8.7 Medium to be pumped

Carbon disulphide and chemicals that are combustible below 120C must not be
pumped.

8.8 Coupling

If the pump is used in potentially explosive atmospheres, it must be coupled to the
drive by means of an elastic, positive coupling with ATEX certification for use with
the pump. Chains, toothed belts, V-belts or similar equipment which may transmit
radial forces to the bearings should not be used.

8.9 Drive

Any reduction gears in the drive chain and control units must be ATEX-certified for
use with the pump. Combustion engines must never be used.

An inverter must be installed away from potentially explosive atmospheres, or have
the same ATEX certification as the pump. In any case the inverter must have the
properties required for operation in potentially explosive atmospheres: temperature
monitoring, speed limitation, etc.

9 Pump specifications

Your pump carries a type plate on the bearing housing. It includes a serial
number, which identifies the features of the product. The serial number also
appears on the technical data sheet.
