2. Use

2.1. Intended use

The pumps are intended for transferring and metering liquids.

Owner's responsibility

Only install and operate the pumps under the operating parameters

and conditions described in Chapter 4, Technical data, and Section

2.3, Using the pump in a potentially explosive atmosphere.

Only complete pumps may be taken into service.

Before transferring or metering a medium, check whether the

medium can be transferred danger-free in the specific application

case.

Before using a medium, check the compatibility of the materials of

the pump head, pump housing, diaphragm and valves with the

medium.

The temperature of the medium must lie within the permissible

temperature range (see Chapter 4).

The transferred medium should not contain particles as these can

prevent the pump from working correctly. If this cannot be guaran-

teed, a filter < 100 m with sufficiently large filter area must be

used upstream of the pump.

2.2. Improper use

For special modifications outside the standard technical specifica-

tions, please contact your KNF technical adviser.

2.3. Using the pump in a potentially explosive

atmosphere

Only pumps of the appropriate Equipment Category and tempera-

ture class must be operated in potentially explosive atmospheres

(areas).

Such pumps have the following explosion prevention and protec-

tion markings:

3. Safety

Observe the safety precautions in Chapters

6. Installation and connection, and 7. Operation.

The pumps are built according to the generally recognised rules of

technology and in accordance with the pertinent occupational

safety and accident prevention regulations. Nevertheless, dangers

may occur during their use which may lead to injuries to the user or

others, or to damage to the pump or other property.

Only use the pumps when they are in a good technical and proper

working order, in accordance with their intended use, observing the

safety advice within the Operating and Installation Instructions, at

all times.

Make sure that only trained and instructed personnel or specially

trained personnel work on the pumps. This especially applies to

assembly, connection and servicing work.

Make sure that all personnel have read and understood the Oper-

ating and Installation Instructions, and in particular the "Safety"

chapter.

Observe the accident prevention and safety regulations when

performing any work on the pump and during operation.

When transferring dangerous medium, observe the safety regula-

tions for handling such medium.

Always ensure adherence to all information stickers on the pumps,

such as flow direction arrows and rating plates, and keep stickers

in legible condition.

All replacement parts should be properly stored and disposed of in

accordance with the applicable environmental protection regula-

tions. Ensure adherence to the pertinent national and international

regulations. This especially applies to parts contaminated with toxic

substances.

Dispose of all packaging in an environmentally-appropriate

manner. The packaging materials are recyclable.

Dispose of end-of-life equipment in an environmentally

friendly manner. Use appropriate waste collection systems

for the disposal of end-of-life equipment. Used pumps

contain valuable recyclable materials.

The pumps conform to the safety requirements regarding electro-

magnetic compatibility in Directive 2004/108/EC.

For the purposes of the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, pumps

are “partly completed machinery", and are therefore to be regarded

as not ready for use. Partly completed machinery may not be

commissioned until such time as it has been determined that the

machine in which the partly completed machinery is to be assem-

bled conforms to the provisions of the Machinery Directive

English translation of original Operating and Installation Instructions 8

2006/42/EC. The essential requirements of Annex I of Directive

2006/42/EC (general principles) are applied and observed.

The pumps comply with Directive 2014/34/EU concerning equip-

ment and protective systems for intended use in explosive atmos-

pheres, and with the standards ISO 80079-36 and ISO 80079-37

for ex areas.

The "Directives for the prevention of risks from explosive atmos-

pheres with a collection of examples –explosion prevention and

protection directives –(EX-RL)" should be observed when classify-

ing a pump environment in an explosion-proof area.

In special cases or where there is doubt when defining potentially

explosive atmospheres, notify the supervisory authorities and ask

them to decide.

All repairs to the pump(s) must be carried out by the relevant KNF

Customer Service team.

Only use genuine parts from KNF for servicing work.

Safety concept

A risk analysis was carried out in accordance with EN 1127-1.

Ignition sources

If the pump compresses against the maximum permissible operat-

ing pressure, the temperature of the head will not exceed the

maximum surface temperature because the head is able to transfer

heat to its environment. The pump's environment must therefore

be adequately ventilated.

The projected surface area of the non-conductive parts which may

become electrostatically charged is less than 100cm2. The total

surface area of electrically insulated metal disks is very small, in

addition to which the screw heads are countersunk in the pump

head. As a result there should be no risk of ignition from the elec-

trostatically chargeable parts.

As a result of the material used inside the pump, the possibility that

critical material combinations may come into contact is excluded.

In addition, these are mounted pumps, which should preferably be

installed in housings and are made of plastic.

The nuts and bolts used are made of stainless steel, so contact

with critical materials is unlikely.

Rupturing of the diaphragm and separation of the steel portion is

unlikely. However, this would be noticed at once because flow rate

would fall considerably. In the event of damage, the loose steel

component would be channelled by the pump housing. Even in the

event of a malfunction, no sparks would therefore be generated

mechanically.

Replacing the diaphragm is described in Chapter 8, Servicing.

Have ball bearings replaced in accordance with the servicing

schedule in Chapter 8.1.
