<strong>Solenoid</strong>-<strong>Diaphragm</strong> <strong>Dosing</strong> <strong>Pump</strong> MAGDOS LP<br />
Operating Instructions<br />
12 Maintenance<br />
Lutz-Jesco dosing pumps are produced to the highest quality standards<br />
and have a long service life. Nevertheless, some of their parts are<br />
subject to wear due to operation (e.g. diaphragms, valve seats, valve<br />
balls). This means that regular visual inspections are necessary to<br />
ensure a long operating life. Regular maintenance will protect the<br />
dosing pump from operation interruptions.<br />
DANGER<br />
Danger to life due to electric shock<br />
Live parts can inflict fatal injuries.<br />
Before carrying out any maintenance work, always disconnect<br />
the dosing pump from the power supply.<br />
Secure the dosing pump from accidental power-up.<br />
WARNING<br />
12.1 Maintenance intervals<br />
CAUTION<br />
Increased risk of accidents due to insufficient qualification<br />
of personnel!<br />
<strong>Dosing</strong> pumps and their accessories may only be installed, operated<br />
and maintained by personnel with sufficient qualifications. Insufficient<br />
qualification will raise the risk of accidents.<br />
Ensure that all action is taken only by personnel with sufficient<br />
and corresponding qualifications.<br />
Prevent access to the system for unauthorised persons.<br />
This table gives you an overview of maintenance work and the intervals<br />
at which you must carry it out. The next few chapters contain instructions<br />
for carrying out this work.<br />
Caustic burns or other burns through dosing media!<br />
While working on the dosing head, valves and connections, you may<br />
come into contact with dosing media.<br />
Maintenance work to be carried<br />
out<br />
Check that piping is seated firmly<br />
Regularly<br />
Frequency<br />
Use sufficient personal protective equipment.<br />
Rinse the dosing pump with a medium (e.g. water) which does<br />
not pose any risk.<br />
Release pressure in hydraulic parts.<br />
Never look into open ends of plugged pipelines and valves.<br />
Check that suction and discharge<br />
valves are seated firmly<br />
Clean suction and discharge valves<br />
Check that electrical connections<br />
are not damaged<br />
Regularly<br />
Regularly<br />
Regularly<br />
WARNING<br />
Caustic burns or other burns through dosing media!<br />
After connecting the mains supply, residual dosing media in the<br />
dosing head can spray out.<br />
Before connecting the mains supply, connect the dosing lines.<br />
Check that all the screw connections have been tightened correctly<br />
and are leak-proof.<br />
Tighten dosing head bolts<br />
Check diaphragms for leakage due<br />
to rupture<br />
Check that the installed accessories<br />
are functioning correctly<br />
• Regularly<br />
• Before initial commissioning<br />
• Each time you replace the<br />
diaphragms<br />
Regularly (assuming that no<br />
leakage monitoring facility was<br />
installed)<br />
Regularly<br />
CAUTION<br />
Danger of personal injury and material damage!<br />
The dosing pump can generate a pressure that is many times the<br />
rated one. The dosing medium can escape in the case of material<br />
failure or wear on the dosing head, the connection pipe or the seals<br />
that are used.<br />
Check the dosing pump for<br />
unusual noises during operation,<br />
unusual temperatures or smells<br />
Regularly<br />
