membrane
1
1 Multi-layer diaphragm
2 Diaphragm mounting plate
3 Spring
4 Safety ring
5 Spring collar
6 Diaphragm anchor
7 O-ring
WARNING
• Always depressurise the suction and discharge tubing before working on the
pump.
• Always empty and rinse the liquid end before working on the pump, if used
with hazardous or unknown materials.
• Always wear appropriate protective equipment when metering hazardous or
unknown liquids!
• Risk of burning by hot hydraulic oil.
Avoid contact with draining oil.
TAKE CARE
• Take the multi-layer diaphragm out of its packing only immediately before
installing it.

• Ensure the diaphragm is clean.
• Do not "dismantle" the multi-layer diaphragm.
Otherwise the diaphragm failure monitor may fail.

Draining hydraulic oil out of hydraulic unit:
4
Turn stroke position knob beyond "100 %" to the stop
Unscrew the gearbox vent stopper
Place an oil container beneath the hydraulic end
Unscrew the oil drainage stopper from the hydraulic end
Drain out the hydraulic oil from the hydraulic end
5
Screw in the oil drainage stopper with a new seal.
6
Changing the diaphragm:
Remove the liquid end along with the liquid end screws from the hydraulic end
Unfasten the diaphragm mounting plate with the diaphragm (1) from the liquid end.

Replace the O ring between the diaphragm mounting plate and the hydraulic unit
Position the liquid end plus screws so that the suction connector is pointing
downwards (direction of flow / note arrow markings on the valves)
Fasten the liquid end screws lightly at first, then tighten to 20 Nm breakaway torque
Screw the suction and discharge tubing to the liquid end.
Filling hydraulic end with hydraulic oil:
Set stroke adjustment knob (1) to "100 %" and open bypass valve (tighten knurled
