SAFETY AND CONTROL MEASURES TO RESPECT IMPERATIVELY
1 - Mechanical risk
Ensure that all protections (cover, sight glass, ventilator hood, coupling protection) are in place be-
fore operating the pump.Disconnect the electricity supply before any mechanical intervention, ex-
cept during a hose replacement. Hose replacement must be done with the pump cover closed.
While replacing a hose, wear protective gloves and clothes and keep hands away from the brackets, suction and
discharge anges.
During the pump maintenance, check that the lifting points are correctly used. The frame of the pump must be
rmly fastened to the ground.
2 - Electrical risk
Ensure that the electrical installation is conforming to the standards required in the country of use especially
regarding earth and thermal protection.
3 - Operational risk
Check the compatibility of the products to be pumped with :
> The peristaltic pump principle.
> The hose material.
> The inserts material.
> The rollar material.
ALBIN PUMP cannot guaranty the hose lifetime or the product loss due to a hose burst. It is the operator’s re-
sponsibility to prevent pumped liquid loss with additional hose rupture detectors and or automatic shut down
valves. Check §2.4 conditions of guarantee for further information.
Ensure that the pump is compatible with the required process.
Ensure that the pressure applied on the suction side is compatible with the pump.
The rupture of the hose and its consequences must be taken in account :
> The pump casing can be lled with the pumped product.
> If the suction line is on load, this one can empty into the pump casing and leak out of the pump.
> If the discharge line is under pressure, the pumped product may be forced back into the pump casing
and leak out of the pump.
A leakage detector as well as automatic shut down valves are recommended in order to prevent such conse-
quences. While draining the pump following a hose rupture, take note of the risk of pollution caused by the
pumped product.
The pump, being volumetric, may suffer dangerously high pressure by even partial blockage of the discharge
line. Ensure that all protections have been made regarding this aspect.
Before each use, check the direction of rotation of the pump.

3/ DESCRIPTION DU PRODUIT
3.1 - IDENTIFICATION OF THE PUMP
ALBIN PUMPS are identiable by the pump plate located on the frame. This one includes the type and serial
number of the pump. This serial number leads to all information concerning building materials, nature of the
hose, characteristics of the gearbox and characteristics of the motor. The gearbox as well as the motor in-
clude their own descriptive plate on which you can read the reduction ratio, power and electrical voltage etc.
3.2 - OPERATION PRINCIPLE
PHASE 3
As soon as, at the discharge side, the rollar is detached from
the hose, the other rollar diametrically opposite is already in
compression thus avoiding an internal product leakage. The
product is then successively sucked and pushed due to the
wheel rotation.
PHASE 2
The pumped liquid has now entered the hose. The second
rollar will compress the hose and push the liquid towards
the pump outlet.
PHASE 1
The pump hose is compressed successively by two rollars
assembled on a rotating wheel. The rst rollar, by pressing
the walls of the hose, will create a vacuum and attract the
pumped liquid into the hose.

4.1 - UNPACKING AND CONTROL
During the reception of the pump, please follow the indications pointed out on the packing. Undertake a vi-
sual control to be sure that no damage happened during the transport. If this is the case, please contact your
ALBIN PUMP distributor as soon as possible.
4.2 - CONDITIONS OF USE
ALP pumps can work in atmospheres where the temperature is situated between - 20°C and +45°C. Pumps
are delivered painted with a 150µ polyurethane paint which allows them to resist to certain aggressive ambi-
ences. They are designed for indoor and outdoor setups.
4.3 - SET UP
Before installing the pump, check the following points :
- The pump is delivered with a frame provided with four anchoring holes. It must be xed on a solid
base with a slope which does not exceed 5mm for 1m and must be rmly fastened to this one.
- Require enough space around the pump to carry out maintenance. If such was not possible, consider
the moving of the pump to a space provided for this purpose.
- Make sure that the room is adequately ventilated to releive the heat generated by the pump. Leave a
space behind the motor ventilatior hood so as not to obstruct air intake.
4.4 - PIPING
Suction line piping :
- The internal diameter of the piping must be superior to that of the pump hose (see §3.4.).
- It must be the shortest and most direct possible to avoid suction loss.
- Install a valve on the suction line especially if the pump is on load.
- Limit the presence of bends and make sure that they are as large as possible.
- Make sure that piping can support the service pressure of the pump.
Discharge line piping :
- The internal diameter of piping must be superior to that of the pump hose (see §3.4.).
- It must be the shortest and most direct possible to avoid discharge pressure loss.
- Limit the presence of bends and make sure that they are as large as possible.
- Provide a space for a pulsation dampener (see picture below).
- If there is a valve on the discharge line, install a pressure valve or a over pressure protection gauge to
avoid any possible damage to the pump and to the installation.
- It is recommended to install a Dillatoex® pipe to absorb vibrations created by the pump pulsations.
During the pump ground study, provide enough space for the hose change.
Distance (L) is the required length for hose removal.
