Servicing work on the pump

Before carrying out any kind of work on the pump, the following safety precautions must be
observed and implemented:
Warning
– Before starting work of any kind on the product, the power supply must be
switched off and secured against being switched back on unintentionally.
– Close the shut-off valves on the intake and pressure sides so that no more fluid
can flow through the pump. Otherwise the pump could generate electricity by
forced rotation of the motor, as in a turbine.
– Connect the pump to the same protective earth (PE) conductor as the motor if
both motor bearings are insulated bearings, e.g. ceramic bearings.
Warning
– Do not lift the pump by the motor eye-bolts if the pump is fitted with a different
motor.
– Follow the lifting instructions in Section 5.3 Lifting the pump.
– Use lifting equipment that is approved for the weight of the product.
– While the pump is being lifted, all persons must keep a safe distance away.
– Make sure that the product is kept stable and securely held while it is being
worked on.
– Always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment.
Warning
Make sure that persons cannot accidentally come into contact with excessively hot
or cold surfaces, and always wear the appropriate personal protective equipment.
Biral recommends that pumps with motor ratings of over 7.5kW should be repaired on site. How-
ever, that requires that suitable lifting equipment is available.
