▷ Always operate the pump set with a belt guard.
If the customer specifically requests not to include a belt guard in KSB's delivery,
then the operator must supply one!
▷ Observe all relevant regulations for selecting a belt guard.
WARNING
The volute casing and casing/discharge cover take on the same temperature as the fluid
handled
Risk of burning!
▷ Insulate the volute casing.
▷ Fit protective equipment.

Damage to the bearing!
▷ Never insulate the bearing bracket, bearing bracket lantern and casing cover.
