OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The KT HIGH PRESSURE version pumps have
been designed to operate in environments with
atmospheres that are not potentially explosive,
with filtered water (see par. 9.7) and at a maximum
temperature of 40 °C.
Other liquids can be used only upon formal approval
by the Engineering Department or Customer
Service Department.
7.1
Water temperature
The maximum permissible water temperature
is 40 °C. However, the pump can be used with
water up to a temperature of 60 °C, but only for
short periods. In this case, it is best to consult the
Technical or Customer Service Departments.
7.2
Maximum pressure and flow rate
The rated specifications stated in our catalog are the max.
that can be obtained by the pump. Independently of the
power used, the maximum pressure and rpm indicated on the
specification label can never be exceeded unless prior formal
authorization is given by our Technical or Customer Service
Departments.
7.3
Minimum operating speed
The minimum rotating speed of the pump is 100 rpm, any
lower minimum speed must be expressly authorized by our
Technical or Customer Service Departments.
7.4
Sound emission
The sound pressure detection test was performed according
to Directive 2000/14 of the European Parliament and Council
(Machinery Directive) and EN-ISO 3744-1995 with class 1
instrumentation.
A final detection of sound pressure must be performed on the
complete machine/system.
Should the operator be located at a distance of less than
1 meter, he will have to use appropriate hearing protection
according to current regulations.
7.5
Vibration
The detection of this value shall be carried out only with the
pump set up on the plant and at the performance declared by
the customer.
Values must be in accordance with regulations.
7.6
Brands and types of oils recommended
The pump is supplied with oil suitable for room temperatures
from 0 °C to 30 °C.
Some types of recommended oil are indicated in the table
below, these oils have additives to increase corrosion
resistance and fatigue resistance (DIN 51517 part 2).
Alternatively you can also use Automotive Gear SAE 85W-90
oil for gearing lubrication.
