The respective single phase mains voltage must be checked

before each installation or re-location of the diaphragm
pump.
Use an appropriate screwdriver on the diaphragm pump
voltage selector switch to select the range which
corresponds with the mains voltage provided (please see
Figure 3.4a).

Be sure to disconnect the pump from mains

power before changing the voltage range.

Prior to switching on the pump always check

the voltage range which has been set on the
pump terminal box..

Attemps to start pump at higher differential

damage may result.

4.2. Operation With Gas Ballast

Let the pump run with gas ballast to reduce condensation of
pumped substances (water vapour, solvents, ....) in the pump.

Starting the pump
The pump can be switched on and off at all times.

When starting the pump or system and when the presence of

vapour is to be anticipated it is recommended to open the gas

the operating temperature is reached (after

approximately 15 minutes).

4.3. Shutdown

Short-term after formation of condensate:

➡ Allow the pump to continue to run at atmospheric pressure
for a few minutes.
➡ Check and clean pump heads if the pump has been
exposed to media which may damage the pump materials
or forms deposits.

Long-term:
➡ Take measures as described in section short-term shutdo-
wn.
➡ Separate pump from the apparatus.
➡ Close gas ballast valve.
➡ Close inlet and outlet port (e. g. with transport caps).
➡ Store the pump in dry conditions.

➡ Only dismantle the pump as far is necessary to effect
repairs; only use genuine parts as per the spare parts list
when carrying out inspection work.
➡ Use only benzin or the like for cleaning. Do not use
solvents.

Ensure compliance with local regulations when

working with solvents.

Toxic gases and vapours can arise when carry-

ing out inspection work on corrosive gas versi-
on pumps (“C”). Pumps must be
decontaminated before inspection. Only
qualified personnel are permitted to carry out
maintenance and repair work and the regulations must be
observed.
