ALL THE HOSE PUMP YOU’LL EVER NEED
Congratulations!
And welcome to the world of realax
hose pumps.
Drawing on extensive interaction with real users of peristaltic
pumping technology and examining applications as diverse as
food, water and wastewater, chemicals and pharmaceuticals,
construction and mining, we have tried to tailor our range of
pumps more precisely to your needs.
Our range of hoses and accessories reect what hose pump
customers really need and use – after all, best is what you want,
second best should never be an option.
We hope you’ll nd using your realax pump simple, trouble-
free and that it makes a positive contribution to the success of
your process. If you have any questions you can’t nd answers to
in these pages, check our website or call your local representative
on the number on the contact page of this guide.
Of course this manual is available in your language.

The original instructions for this manual have been written in English.
Other language versions of this manual are a translation of the original
instructions.
1.3 Other supplied documentation
Documentation of components such as motors and inverters is normally
not included in this manual. However, if additional documentation
is supplied, you must follow the instructions in this additional
documentation.

2 SAFETY
2.1 Explanation of the safety information
This symbol identies the instructions of this manual,
which must be observed to avoid failure to meet safety
standards.
This symbol identies the instructions of this manual,
which must be observed to avoid compromising
electrical safety.
This symbol identies the instructions of this manual,
which must be observed to guarantee the correct
operation of the pump.
!
CAUTION
In this manual the following symbols are used:
2.2 Intended use
The hose pump is exclusively designed for pumping suitable products.
Every other or further use is not in conformance with the intended use. In
case of doubt it is the use which appears to be its intended use judging from
the construction, execution and function of the product. Observing the
instructions in the user’s documentation also belongs to intended use.
Only use the pump in conformance with the intended use described above.
The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for damage or harm result-
ing from use that is not in conformance with the intended use. If you want
to change the application of your hose pump, contact your AxFlow repre-
sentative rst.
2.3 Responsibility
The manufacturer does not accept any responsibility for damage or harm
caused by not (strictly) observing the safety regulations and instructions in
this manual and the also supplied documentation, or by negligence during
installation, use, maintenance and repair of the hose pumps mentioned on

the front cover. Depending on the specic working conditions or accesso-
ries used, additional safety instructions can be required.
2.4 User qualications
Pumps are machines that can present dangers due to moving parts and the
presence of a pressurised uid within the hose.
THE FOLLOWING CAN CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE AND INJURY
• Improper use
• Removal of the protections and/or disconnection of protective
devices
• Lack of inspections and maintenance
The person responsible for safety should therefore guarantee that the
pump is transported, installed, put in service, used, maintained and
repaired by qualied personnel who should possess:
• Specic training and sufcient experience for the tasks.
• Knowledge of the technical standards and applicable laws.
• Knowledge of the national and local safety and installation
standards.
Any work carried out on the electrical part of the pump should be
authorized by the person responsible for safety.
Given that the pump is intended to form part of a system, it is the
responsibility of whoever supervises the installation of the entire system to
guarantee absolute safety, adopting the necessary measures of additional
protection.

Live parts
Possible consequence: fatal or very serious injuries.
- Risk mitigation: the device must be disconnected
from the power supply before it is opened.
- Isolate damaged, faulty or manipulated devices
from the mains in order to de-energise.
Lack of emergency stop switch
Possible consequence: fatal or very serious injuries.
- An emergency stop switch must be connected
for the entire system. This should enable the
entire system to be shut down in the event of an
emergency in such a way that the overall system
can be brought into a safe condition.
Unauthorized access
Possible consequence: fatal or very serious injuries.
- Risk mitigation: ensure that there can be no
unauthorized access to the pump or to the system.
Hazardous media/contamination of persons and
equipment
Possible consequences: fatal/serious injuries. Material
damage.
- Ensure that the pump hoses are chemically
resistant against the media being handled.
- Always observe the safety data sheets for the
media to be handled. The system operator must
ensure that these safety data sheets are available
and that kept up-to-date.
- The safety data sheets for the uid being handled
are always decisive for initiating countermeasures
and/or rst aid in the event of leakage of the uid.
- Observe the general restrictions in relation to
viscosity limits, chemical resistance and density.
- Always switch the pump off before exchanging
the pump hose.

Incorrect and improper use
Possible consequence: fatal or very serious injuries.
- The unit is not intended to convey or regulate
gases or solid media
- Do not exceed the rated pressure, speed or
temperature for the pump
- Maximum pressure on suction/inlet side is 3 bar
(45 psi approx.).
- The unit may only be used in accordance with
the technical data and specications provided in
these operating instructions and in the operating
instructions for the individual components.
- This pump is NOT supplied for use in areas of risk
from explosion. ATEX versions of Realax pumps
are available and they are supplied with a special
ATEX version of the instruction manual.
- Only switch the pump on if it has been properly
fastened to the oor.
- Only switch the pump on if the front cover has
been attached.
- Do not carry out any maintenance operations or
dismantle the pump without rst making sure
that the pipes are not under pressure and are
empty or isolated.
- In the case of the hose becoming stuck during
extraction or tting it is necessary to reverse the
direction of the pump, re-lubricate, and then
repeat the operation.
- As the peristaltic pump is volumetric and
its functioning is positive displacement, it is
necessary to prevent a possible overload of
pressure, due to for example the accidental
closure of a valve. For this reason it is advisable to
t a safety device such as: a safety valve, pressure
limiter, etc.
Operational lifetime of the pump hoses
Possible consequence: fatal or very serious injuries.
- The hose has an indeterminate life and due to the
possibility of its breakage or deterioration, the
user is responsible for the prevention of a possible

- (although most unlikely) incorporation of
particles from the hose into the product being
pumped. This can be achieved by means of
ltration, a hose rupture alarm or other means
suitable for the respective process.
CIP cleaning
- In the event of CIP cleaning, it is necessary to
obtain information from the manufacturer
about correct installation of the pump (a
special installation is required) as well as
regarding the compatibility of the cleaning
agents with the pump hoses and the hydraulic
connections.
- Cleaning should be undertaken at the
recommended maximum temperature.
Direction of rotation/ow direction
Possible consequence: material damage,
destruction of the unit.
- The pump’s direction of rotation in relation
to the desired ow direction must be checked
prior to every start.
Disconnect the pump from the mains
Possible consequence: personal injury.
- Work may only be carried out on the pump
after it has previously been switched off and
disconnected from the mains.
Environmental inuences
Possible consequence: material damage up to
destruction of the unit.
- The device is suitable for outdoor operation
once it is covered and protected from rain and
direct sunlight. Ambient conditions must also
be respected (see section 8.1).
- Take suitable measures to protect the device
from environmental inuences such as:
UV rays | moisture | frost | etc.
