▪Only use the pump to handle the fluids described in the data sheet or product

literature of the pump model.

▪Never operate the pump without the fluid handled.

▪Observe the minimum flow rates indicated in the data sheet or product literature

(to prevent overheating, bearing damage, etc).

▪Observe the maximum flow rates indicated in the data sheet or product

literature (to prevent overheating, mechanical seal damage, cavitation damage,

bearing damage, etc).

▪Do not throttle the flow rate on the suction side of the pump (to prevent

cavitation damage).

▪Consult the manufacturer about any use or mode of operation not described in

the data sheet or product literature.

Prevention of foreseeable misuse

▪Never open discharge-side shut-off elements further than permitted.

– The maximum flow rate specified in the data sheet or product literature

would be exceeded.

– Risk of cavitation damage

▪Never exceed the permissible operating limits specified in the data sheet or

product literature regarding pressure, temperature, etc.

▪Observe all safety information and instructions in this manual.
