General

Meaning of symbols and

corresponding information

In this manual, the symbols and safety wor-

dings shown on this page are intended to

communicate a particular risk to persons,

material assets, or the environment.

All safety instructions must be respected

by person exposed to these risks. The safety

instructions must be communicated to all

other persons.

Instructions attached directly to the

equipment, such as

• rotational direction arrows

• ﬂuid connection labels, etc.

must be respected and remain perfectly

legible.

It is essential to read these instructions

thoroughly and to respect the safety instruc-

tions given.



1. Safety

instructions

The described product was manufactured in

accordance with all generally acknowledged

regulations pertaining to technology, occu-

pational safety, and accident prevention.

However, dangers that can cause physical

injury to persons or damage to other mate-

rial assets might still occur during the use of

the product.

NOTE

These instructions must be read and

understood by all persons who are involved

with the installation, operation, maintenance,

and repair of the product. These instructions

must be kept close to the equipment for

future reference.

Note that these installation instructions is

an integral part of the product. It must be

handed over to the new operator of the pro-

duct if the product is sold.

In addition to the information provided in

the installation instructions, all generally

applicable regulations on accident prevention

and the environment must be observed.

1.1 Intended use

Electromagnetic pumps PE serve to supply

lubricant to centralized lubrication systems.

Other use or use beyond this purpose is

considered unintended.

Products of SKF must not be used in

conjunction with substances and mixtures

classiﬁed as hazardous by the Annex I part

- of the CLP regulation (EC /),

and identiﬁed with hazard pictograms

GHS-GHS and GHS.

None of the products manufactured by

SKF can be used in conjunction with gases,

liqueﬁed gases, pressurized gases in solution

and ﬂuids with a vapor pressure exceeding

normal atmospheric pressure ( mbar)

by more than . bar at their maximum per-

missible temperature.

Unless otherwise noted, products of SKF

must not be used in conjunction with explo-

sive atmospheres according to the ATEX-Di-

rective //EU.



NOTE

All SKF products may be used strictly respec-

ting the instructions described in this bro-

chure or the operating instructions.

1.2 Authorized

personnel

The products described in the installation

instructions may only be installed, operated,

maintained, and repaired by qualiﬁed

experts. Qualiﬁed experts are persons who

have been trained, instructed, and familia-

rized with the end product into which the

described product is installed.

These persons are considered capable of

such tasks due to their education, training,

and experience with valid standards, condi-

tions, accident prevention regulations in

effect, and installation conditions. They

should be able to carry out the required

tasks and to recognize – and thus avoid – any

dangers that might otherwise occur.

A deﬁnition of what constitutes a qualiﬁed

person and who are unqualiﬁed persons are

stipulated in DIN VDE  and IEC .

1.3 Danger relating

to electric current

The electrical connection for the described

product may only be established by qualiﬁed,

instructed persons who have been autho-

rized by the operator or owner to carry out

this task. If the product is improperly

connected, substantial material or personal

damage my be the consequence.

1.4 Danger relating

to system pressure

CAUTION!

Working on products that have not been

disconnected from the power supply can

cause serious injury or death to persons.

Installation, maintenance, and repair work

may only be carried out by qualiﬁed experts

on products that have been disconnected

from the power supply. The supply voltage

must be turned off before any product com-

ponents are opened.

CAUTION!

Centralized lubrication systems are under

pressure when they are being operated. Such

systems must therefore be depressurized

before starting installation, maintenance, or

repair work and before making any changes

to the system.



1.5 Warranty

The instructions do not contain any informa-

tion on the warranty. This can be found in

the General Conditions of Sales, which are

available at: www.skf.com/lubrication.

2. Lubricants

2.1 General

NOTE

All SKF products must only be used for their

intended purpose and in accordance with the

speciﬁcations of the installation instructions

for the product in question.

The intended use of this product is for the

centralized lubrication/lubrication of bea-

rings and wear points with lubricants. All

physical limitations of use stipulated in the

documentation of the product such as the

owner’s manual, technical drawings and

catalogs must be observed.

More speciﬁcally, we call your attention to

the fact that substances and mixtures classi-

ﬁed as hazardous by the Annex I part - of

the CLP regulation (EC /), and

identiﬁed with hazard pictograms GHS-

GHS and GHS, can only be used to feed

the SKF centralized lubrication systems,

transported or distributed by these systems

after consultation with SKF and obtaining

written permission.

All products manufactured by SKF are not

approved for use in conjunction with gases,

liqueﬁed gases, pressurized gases in solution

and ﬂuids with a vapor pressure exceeding

normal atmospheric pressure ( mbars)

by more than , bar at their maximum per-

missible temperature.

Should there be a need to use the product

to convey media other than lubricants or

hazardous substances, this must be dis-

cussed with SKF ﬁrst and the company must

give express written permission.

In the opinion of SKF, lubricants constitute

a design element that must be considered

when selecting components and designing

centralized lubrication systems.The lubrica-

tion properties of the lubricants in question

must be considered.



NOTE

You must observe the machinery manufac-

turer's information on the lubricants to be

used in the machinery.

NOTE

The manufacturer of the bearing or

machinery to be lubricated will specify the

lubricant requirements for each point to be

lubricated. You must make sure that the

required quantity of lubricant is provided to

the relevant lubricating point. If a lubricating

point is insufﬁciently lubricated, the bearing

may become damaged or jammed.

While the machinery/bearing manufacturer

usually speciﬁes lubricants, it is the owner/

operator (or maintenance person) who must

ﬁnally select the appropriate lubricant, with

the help of the lubricant supplier. When

selecting a lubricant, the type of bearing/

wear point, the stresses and strains to be

expected during operation, and anticipated

ambient conditions must be taken into

Note

If required, SKF can help customers to

select suitable components for the

conveyance of the selected lubricant and to

plan and design their centralized lubrication

system.

If you have further questions, you can

contact SKF.

We can test lubricants in our own labora-

tory to establish their suitability for

CAUTION!

Only lubricants that have been approved by

SKF for use with the product may be used.

Unsuitable lubricants can cause product

malfunctions and damage to property.

also be considered.
