5.4 Oil Change
Pump and operating agents may be contaminated
Hazardous substances may escape from the pump and the oil. If there is
the danger that the operating agent may present a hazard in any way due
to decomposition of the oil, or because of the media which have been
pumped, you must determine the kind of hazard and ensure that all nec-
essary safety precautions are taken. use gloves, face protection or a res-
pirator, for example.
Observe Safety Information 0.3 und 0.4.
Change the oil while the pump is cold so as to avoid releasing adsorbed
gases. If releasing adsorbed gases is no problem, change the oil after the
pump has been switched off and while the pump is still warm.
Risk of suffering burns
With the pump warm from operation, both pump and oil can get so hot
that there is the risk of suffering burns. If required, wear gloves.
Check and top up oil only after having shut down the pump first.
When disposing of waste oil, observe the applicable environment protec-
tion regulations!
When changing the oil use the same type of oil which was previously in
the pump. If you want to change the type of oil entirely please consult us
first.
The oil should be changed after the first 100 operating hours and then at least
every 2000 - 3000 operating hours or after one year. At high intake pressures
and intake temperatures and/or when pumping contaminated gases, the oil will
have to be changed much more frequently.
Further oil changes should be made before and after long-term storage of the
pump.
If the oil becomes contaminated too quickly, contact us for more support infor-
mation .
