1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1.8 Specific points for the use of a NEMO® pump

E
A NEMO® pump must be used for the purpose only for which it was sold.
If you change or wish to change the process medium, you must check with either the
supplier or manufacturer that the pump is suitable for the new medium. This is
especially important with aggressive, poisonous or otherwise hazardous substances.
Pump criteria include:

PL
1. Compatibility with the pumped media
2. Suitability for seal design / material, especially the shaft seal
3. Resistance to pressure and temperature of the media

The NEMO® pump is a positive displacement pump and as such is able to


generate pressures that exceed the pumps design limit.
A blockage or the chance closure of a valve in the discharge line can cause a
pressure rise manifold as high as can be tolerated by the installation.
This can result in the bursting of pipes, which must be avoided especially in the case
of dangerous media.
Corresponding safety equipment must therefore be installed, for example an
emergency stop button, a pressure relief valve with return pipe or a bursting disc.
AM
During maintenance and repair work on the pump please note the following:
1. Ensure that the pump drive can not be turned on without authorization
2. When opening the pump follow the instructions for handling the medium (eg.
protective clothing, no smoking etc)
3. Before putting the pump back into operation ensure that all guards and other
safety devices (eg. drive–belt protection, coupling protection) are properly re–
installed

Always consider and observe your safety during operation,


maintenance and installation of the machine. Please adhere to the
EC-Directive for Machinery including national regulations and
follow the European Standard EN ISO 12100-1 with the accident
prevention rules laid down by the trade unions and other
EX

appropriate technical institutions.

1.9 Notes on inspection and repair

E
The statutory regulations on safety at work, accident prevention regulations and
environmental protection regulations oblige all commercial undertakings to protect
their employees, persons and the environment from the negative effects of handling
hazardous materials.
Important:

PL
Machines and their parts may only be inspected / repaired if the ”Safety
clearance certificate (Technical Declaration)” has been filled in correctly
and fully by authorised and qualified personnel and is available.
The ”Safety clearance certificate (Technical Declaration)” can be
downloaded from our website at: ”https://pumpen.netzsch.com/” or
please contact our service team
(→ Chapter 16 - Contacts).
If special safety precautions are required when emptying and cleaning the machine,
the necessary information must be provided in the certificate.
The ”Safety clearance certificate (Technical Declaration)” is part of the
inspection/repair order and must always be filled in and signed when NETZSCH is to
carry out inspection/repair. However, the reserved right of NETZSCH to reject this
AM
order remains unaffected.

1.10 Instructions concerning explosion protection

E
The instructions below are to be considered and kept to when using
pumps in potentially explosive areas in order to guarantee durable
explosion protection of the pumps and avoid any danger of ignition.
Permissible area of application, in accordance with Directive
2014/34/EU (ATEX):
→ ATEX declaration of conformity (→ Chapter 17 - Certificates /

PL
Annexes).
It has to be taken into account that in case of aggregates the
components (e.g. gears, couplings) mounted on the pump must
comply with the directive 2014/34/EU as well. The relevant
documentation concerning these components has to be considered.
The application area of aggregates is determined by the application
area of the mounted component with the lowest approval and thus
may deviate from the allowed application area of the pump.

The declaration of conformity, as defined by the ATEX directive


2014/34/EU, will become invalid if spare parts other than the ones
manufactured or approved by NETZSCH are used.
The manufacturer's warranty, as granted in the ordering documents, will also become
invalid, because the safety of operator and/or machine can no longer be guaranteed.
EX

The maximum conveying product temperatures apply when mechanical seals of


Messrs. Burgmann with carbide - carbide and carbide - carbon as sliding

1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

1. Assembly and repair in potentially explosive areas

E
When performing assembly and repair work, it has to be seen to that no danger of
ignition arises especially during heating up the pump parts. This means e.g. heating
up by explosion-proof heating devices or exclusively in non-explosive areas. The
temperature of the heated part and the ignition temperature of the materials which
cause the danger of explosion have to be considered.

2. Dry-running protection

PL
Under no circumstances is the pump to run dry. The pump is to be equipped with an
appropriate dry-running protection device.
The device for dry-running protection should be self-regulating.
This means that this device can give alarm signals and/or switch off the pump also in
case of failures in its own control system.

3. Overpressure protection
The pump must not be loaded over the maximum allowable pressure. The pump is to
be equipped with an appropriate overpressure protection device. The pump must not
convey against a closed slide valve.
The overpressure protection device should be self-regulating.
AM
4. Drives
The drives must be adjusted to the performance of each pump. In the case of a
blocking of the pump, the drives must be turned off automatically by means of a
motor protection unit.

5. Potential equalization
All conductive parts of the pump are to be integrated in the potential equalization of
the pumping set unless the conductive connection to the ground potential is
guaranteed by the drive or connecting shafts or otherwise.

6. Stator
The stator is to be regularly checked for wear.
When the allowable wear limit is reached, the stator is to be replaced. Before
EX

exchanging the conveying product, the pump operator has to consult the
manufacturer concerning the durability of the stator unless the stator has already
been confirmed for the intended application.
Inspection and maintenance interval of the stator:
- in the case of an operating time of > 16 h/day, at least twice a year
- in the case of an operating time of < 16 h/day, at least once a year.

text no. issued: 18.03.2019 Revision: 5


R 01013-1/2 copy to:
PAGE
1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS 1.5

7. Joints / joint lubrication

E
The sealing and the lubrication of the joints are to be regularly checked. If necessary,
the seals and the lubricants are to be replaced.
Inspection and maintenance interval of the joints:
- in the case of an operating time of > 16 h/day, at least twice a year
- in the case of an operating time of < 16 h/day, at least once a year.

PL
8. Inspection after initial startup
The aspects relevant for ensuring the explosion protection (such as lubrication and
wear check) are to be checked six months after the initial startup of the pump at the
latest.

9. Materials
Although being allowed as material for the pumps, aluminum should be avoided in
potentially explosive areas.
The pumps may only be used if, under the particular operating conditions, the
materials are resistant to mechanical and/or chemical influences or corrosion such
that the explosion protection will be maintained.
AM
10. Gland
If a gland packing is applied it has to be observed that the permitted temperature
corresponding to the temperature category is not exceeded. Recommendation: fasten
the screws of the stuffing box gland only with low torque (approx. 5 Nm).

11. Dust layer


No dust layer of more than 5 mm is allowed on the pumps. Rotating parts (like drive
shaft, bearing carrier and drive stool of paddle agitators) must not run in a dust layer.
In respect of this the pumps have to be controlled at regular intervals and if
necessary the dust has to be removed.

2.1 Description
Rotorposition
The NEMO® pump is a progressing cavity
pump. S
R
The main components which determine the 0°/360°
system discovered by Professor René Moineau

PL
are a rotating part, called the rotor (R) and a
static part, called the stator (S).
The rotor is a helical screw with an extremely
large pitch, large thread depth and small centre
diameter with round cross-section for ½-
geometry and elliptical cross-section for
⅔-geometry. The stator has a two start or resp. 90°
3 start thread and is double or resp. 1.5 the
pitch length of the rotor. This provides space
for the medium between the rotor and stator.
When the rotor turns round inside the stator
the medium moves continuously from the inlet

Noise emissions:
AM
The maximum permitted noise emission level at a work place is ≤ 70 dB (A).
The noise level was measured in accordance with DIN Standard 45635-24-01-KL2.
Noises generated by the drive and pipes are not included in the above emission value.
A prerequisite for the noise emission level of ≤ 70 dB (A) is that the pump is operated
in a cavity free regime and is bolted to a concrete base.

E
3.1 Packaging and Transportation
NEMO® pumps are shipped in railroad containers or crates unless the customer
specifies otherwise.
The packings are labelled and symbols give the handling instructions in accordance
with DIN 55402.

PL
On receipt check for any transport damages.
Transport damages should be reported to the transporter immediately.
The pumps should be transported as closely as possible to the location of installation
and only there should they be uncrated.
Uncrated horizontal pumps should be lifted by using a shackle which can be attached
to the baseplate. The bolt holes of the frame or the lifting lugs attached to the
baseplate could be used as shown on the installation drawing.
Vertical pumps should be lifted by using the bolt down holes, lifting lugs or shackles
attached to the baseplate. This is shown on the installation drawing. For most
applications, the drive is mounted on top of the pump.
Be careful when lifting top heavy pumps. The centre of gravity may be above the
AM
points where the lifting gear is attached to. If the case, secure additionally against
tipping over!
Vertical pumps should not be deposited unless they are secured vertically. Hazards
of tipping!
Deposit only in horizontal position.
It is essential to avoid that the total pump unit be suspended with eye bolts of the
motor or gear box. These eye bolts should be used for lifting the motor and/or the
gear box only.
The local accident prevention rules relating to lifting accessories for
the lifting of loads must be strictly adhered to.
Because of the variety of possible pump designs and applications, only general
instructions can be given here. These should be good enough for experienced
assemblymen or transportation experts.
When in doubt, please ask for detailed information on the pump unit concerned.
EX

When moving the pump or unit on wheels strictly attend to the following:
■ Pad lock the motor drive and secure against unintended starting up.
■ Move the pump unit carefully and slowly, especially where the ground is uneven.

Hazards of tipping!

■ Ensure a stable position of the pump or unit at the operating /storage place and

E
secure it by actuating all clamping devices on all the wheels or rollers against
voluntary moving away.
■ Where fitted loosely, carefully watch the pipe bends when pumping. Power of
repulsion!
■ Where necessary, secure the pump unit additionally with support blocks.

PL
NETZSCH undertakes to take back any clean and fully emptied transport packaging

! free of charge, based on section 15 of the German Packaging Act (VerpackG).


The packaging chips are made of polystyrene.

3.2 Storage
The pumps are only preserved for transport and short term storage unless specified
otherwise.
In cases of long term storage the pumps should be handled as follows until
installation:
▲ Stator:
If the pump is not to be used immediately, then the elastomer along the contact line
between rotor and stator may become permanently distorted (compression-set). This
AM
will increase the break away torque.
Therefore, the stator should be removed and kept separately.
Standard DIN 7716 summarizes detailed information on the storage of rubber
products, extracts from which are stated here.
The following applies for a storage period of up to six months.
General:
Most rubber products may change their physical properties under unfavourable
conditions or if treated improperly, which will result in a shorter lifetime. They can
become unsuitable for use through excessive hardening, ageing, degeneration or
permanent deformation, or because of blistering, cracking or other damage appearing
on the surfaces.
These changes may occur under the influence of oxygen, ozone, heat, light, humidity,
solvents or because of storing the products under load.
If stored and treated properly, rubber products will retain their properties even during
EX

long term storage (some years), with little change. However this does not apply to
uncured rubber compounds.

STORAGE 3.1

Store room:

E
- The environment in which rubber products are being kept must be cool, dry, free of
dust and naturally ventilated.
- Rubber products must not be stored in the open, not even in an area sheltered
from the weather.
- Rubber products should be stored at temperatures above minus 10 °C and not
more than plus 15 °C. Store rooms should not be damp and there should be no
condensation.

PL
- Rubber products should be stored in an environment offering a relative humidity
under 65 %.
- Rubber products must be protected against light, particularly direct sunlight or high
UV artificial.
- Rubber products should be kept away from forced ventilation and draughts; under
these conditions they should be wrapped.
- As ozone is very aggressive and harmful to rubber products they should not be
stored in the same room with equipment likely to produce ozone, e.g. electric
motors or other equipment which could electrically discharge or cause sparks.
- Rubber products should not be stored together with solvents, oil, grease,
lubricants or any chemicals.

thoroughly in order to avoid unsuitability of the grease with the
stator material and the pumping medium.
Screw the pump at all fixing points (bearing housing / drive stool,

PL
end stud, support feet) using all fixing bores securely down to the
sub-structure (ground plate, machine frame, foundation etc.).

4.1 Direction of rotation


The direction of rotation of the pump is given on the model plate and in the order
confirmation. The direction of delivery of the NEMO® pump is a function of the
direction of rotation.
Changes must be agreed upon and confirmed by the supplier.

4.2 Pressure
If not explicitly confirmed otherwise in the order confirmation, the maximum
AM
permissible pressure (e.g. when turning clockwise) inside the pump
housing (A):

- for models with pump housing of cast iron 6 bar

- for models with welded pump housing 10 bar

The maximum permissible pressures inside the end connection (B) is


a function of the design applied for connections:
- with flange: maximum nominal pressure (e.g. PN 16).
- with threaded internal socket: maximum 25 bar.
- with DIN 11851 "dairy" thread up to DN 100 for one or two stage pumps: max. 12
bar, for multi stage pumps: max. 25 bar.
- for other versions: maximum permissible pressure of the socket connection, but
EX

not more than 6 bar per pump stage, depending on the stator installed.

4.3 Piping system


■ Arrange suction and pressure pipes so that when the pump is not running, the
medium is still present before and after the pump.
Sufficient media should remain inside in order to lubricate the pump during restart.

5 Start-up

E
The NEMO® pump design requires strict attention to the following:

Never run the NEMO® pump dry!


A few rotations in dry condition will damage the stator!

PL
■ Before starting up for the first time, fill the pump with medium. In the case of high
viscosity media fill with a liquid.
Pump priming is vital to ensure lubrication of the rubber stator. Fill the piping on the
pump suction side. In anti-clockwise rotation only: Fill the pump housing.

The NEMO® pump is a progressing cavity pump which can produce


pressures that may cause the bursting of vessels or pipes.

The power transmission train (shaft, coupling rod, joints, rotor) of


the pump may be overloaded thus resulting in damage or breakage.

Also the pump housing parts with their connections may be


overloaded and break. There is a table in Section 4 of these
Maintenance and Operating Instructions showing the pressure

5 START-UP

5.1 NEMO® pumps supplied for Food duties

E
When a pump has been supplied for a food application it is important to ensure that
the pump is clean prior to initial pump operation.
The cleaning of the pump, before use on food, can be executed in two ways:
A) by dismantling the pump components and manual cleaning of these parts using
suitable detergents. No dirt contamination must enter anew during re-assembly.
B) By applying a CIP (Cleaning In Place) procedure provided the type and execution

PL
of the pump suit such a procedure.

A clean in place treatment on the pump should be executed at the following times:
- When the pump is first commissioned for use.
- When any spare components are fitted into the wetted area of the pump.
- After operations, i.e. before a fairly long idleness of the pump.
- After longer idleness, before re–operation.

Many companies have their own CIP procedures which suit to their pumping media,
but if you are unsure that your CIP procedure is suitable for the pump supplied then
please contact NETZSCH.
AM
5.2 A typical CIP procedure
- Towns water pre-rinse to get out product left over inside the pump.
- 1-2 % water / volume Sodium Hydroxide for 10-20 minutes at 60-80 °C.
- Towns water for 5-10 mins.
- 1-1.5 % water / volume Nitric Acid for 5-10 mins at 50-70 °C.
- Towns water for 5-10 mins.

The flow rate of the rinsing liquids should not be lower than 1.5 m/s during CIP
procedure.
When under CIP treatment, the stator has to undergo thermal and chemical stress. It
is therefore important to ensure that the NEMO® pump is operating in STOP AND GO
function during CIP treatment which is:
- two to three starts with one to two rotations in the course of one minute.
EX

This will provide sufficient cleaning of the rotor / stator conveying cavities and it also
reduces the mechanical stress additionally put on the stator through deformation
work.

6 TEMPORARY SHUTDOWN 6.0

6 Temporary Shutdown

E
After stopping the pump empty and if necessary rinse it or resp. apply anti-freezing
agent if:
- the medium might freeze due to the temperature surrounding the pump. Especially
where there is a danger of frost if the pump is installed outside a building
- the medium tends to solidify or harden

PL
- the medium tends to glue up the shaft seal

Caution with biogas plants:


Pressure can build up in the plant when it is shut down!
You should therefore ensure that this pressure can escape.

6.1 Stator
When there is a shutdown of more than 6 months, the rotor can permanently deform
the stator at the contact surfaces (compression-set).
This will increase the break away torque.
For this reason, the stator should be removed (see Section 9), and stored in a cool,
dry place in air tight package to give protection against light and air (see also Section
AM
3.2).

6.2 Rotor
Remove ceramic rotors (please observe Section 10!) and store away, safe in the
original packing.
Support other rotors on wooden blocks and cover to protect them from mechanical
damage, after the stator has been removed.
Rotors not of stainless steels:
Protect the rotor surfaces against corrosion with protective grease.
Remove the grease before re–installing the stator and clean the rotor
thoroughly in order to avoid unsuitability of the grease with the
pumping medium or the stator material.

At a sudden break in a joint up to 470 ml of lubricating oil together with metal


rubbings may enter the pumping medium. It is therefore of essential importance to
regularly check the state of the joint seals and renew in time, if necessary.

If the pin joints operate without lubricating oil or seals, there will be no risk of
contaminating the medium with oil. This operation, however, results in a higher
amount of rubbed off metal parts through wear on the joints. These metal rubbings
will inevitably and continuously come into contact with the pumping medium.

7.4 Shaft Sealing through Single Mechanical Seal

E
There are various constructions of mechanical seals. Especially advantageous is the
use of standard mechanical seals according to EN 12756. These seals have
regardless of their brand the same fitting dimensions which makes them
interchangeable. Mechanical seals with a coil spring can only be used for pumps
which are run in one direction of rotation.
▲ The seal specification of a NEMO® pump is recorded on the order confirmation sheet.

PL
▲ Pumps fitted with direction dependent seals should never be run in the opposite
direction of the rotation arrow.
▲ If excessive leakages occur the spring tension and the seal surfaces should be
checked, and the seal be replaced, if necessary.
Single mechanical seals usually work without any additional equipment. Their
application range can be increased by operating them with a rinsing or cooling
system.
a) Rinsing, especially outside rinsing in accordance with ISO 5199, appendix E,
classification no. 08a or according to API 610, appendix D, plan 32.
Especially with media which are polluted by solids.
A clear rinse (1) is fed in near the area of the
AM

sliding surface. An additional throttle seal (2) can
be built in. This keeps the contaminated medium
(3) away from the seals (4) if:

- sufficient rinse (1) is added
- the pressure of the rinse (1) is greater than the
pressure of the medium (3).

b) Quench, in accordance with ISO 5199,
Appendix E, Plan Nos. 08, 09, 10 or 13 or API  
610, Appendix D, Plan No. 62.
Quench is the designation commonly used in sealing engineering for an arrangement
that applies a non pressurized external fluid to the atmospheric side of a mechanical
seal. The quench is used when
EX

- a single mechanical seal will not work or only to a limited extent without auxiliary
measures or

Recommended for the following applications:

E
- Low temperature (danger of freezing)
- Operation in a vacuum (dry running)
- Media which must be isolated from the atmosphere (eg. due to build up of solid
deposits or because of less severe damage to the environment, like smell)

Leakages will be transportet away by the quenching liquid.

PL
In vacuum operation dry running of the seals is avoided.
No pressure higher than that of the pumped
medium in front of the mechanical seal is allowed  
to build up in the quenching area (1) behind the
mechanical seal. Otherwise the counter ring will - !
be pushed out of the housing. Free discharge from
(2) is necessary!
Closing off the quenching area from the
atmosphere can be done in three ways:
1. In the case that high emission levels can be
tolerated:  
AM
Through a throttle bush (4). Cooling liquid not
permanently used, only released from time to time.
2. In the case that medium emission levels can be tolerated:
By a radial shaft seal ring (3). Permanent radial shaft seal lubrication through
quenching liquid is necessary.
3. In the case that low emission levels can be tolerated:
By installing an additional single mechanical seal. This results in forming a double
mechanical seal in tandem arrangement. Permanent mechanical seal lubrication
on the atmospheric side through quenching liquid is necessary.

For procedures 2 and 3 requiring permanent quench, the supply of quenching liquid
can be performed in two ways:
1. Feeding in via a supply line over a throttle / check valve, and having an outlet from
the seal quench area.
EX

2. Feeding in through a tank, which should be arranged maximum one meter above
the seal, and having a drain valve from the seal quench area. The level mark in
the tank must always show and the filling be half way on the sight glass. Control
intervals should be determined by the user.

The quenching liquid should be changed and the quenching area should be cleaned
periodically.
Background: there is an exchange of media between quenching liquid and the
pumped media. If you have a sticky pumped media the rising concentration of this
media within the quenching liquid might cause the mechanical seal to stick together.
By the time impurities of the media might settle in the quenching area.

Attention: For vertically installed pumps
with overhead drive as type BT/NT:
On initial start-up the mechanical seal has not come
in contact with the medium. It runs therefore dry for
a short period of time until the air is displaced from
the pump housing. 1

9.2 Assembly and disassembly of the iFD-Stator®

E
iFD-Stator® - new stator technology
The iFD-Stator® (3005) is a patented design and
comprises the stator (3000), the stator housing
(3001) and the stator clamping sleeve (3002). 3000

The iFD-Stator® is maintenance free.


The stator (3000) is simply replaced when worn: the

PL
stator housing (3001) and clamping sleeve (3002) are
reused.
This reduces your purchasing quantities and creates 3002
less waste. This solution also means that the difficult
3001
disposal of composite materials is no longer an issue:
both to your advantage and that of the environment.

Recommendations for reordering the replacement stator (3000):


The replacement stator (3000) is simply ordered using the part number found on the
front page of your Operating and Maintenance Manual as well as on the pump
identification plate, together with the parts list reference no. 3000.

On the sleeve you will find icons as a reminder to clarify the following steps of the

E
procedure:

Step 3: Disassemble the stator housing (3001/3002)

PL
■ Evenly compress the stator housing (3001) across its diameter with, for example, a
pair of screw clamps or a vice until the clamping force exerted by the sleeve (3002) on
the stator housing (3001) is released.
■ Now remove the clamping sleeve (3002).
CAUTION!
Do not compress more than necessary otherwise the
clamping sleeve will jam.
Tip: 3002
If the clamping sleeve does not loosen immediately, it
can be freed with a light blow in the lengthwise
direction using a plastic hammer.
AM
■ Remove the clamps or vice compressing the housing.
3001

Step 4: Replace the stator (3000)


■ Slide the worn stator (3000) lengthwise out of the
stator housing (3001).
Clean all dirt and other deposits from the iFD-Stator®,
in particular from the contact surfaces between the
stator housing and the clamping sleeve and from the
inner surface of the stator housing.
CAUTION!
The contact surfaces between the stator and stator 3001
housing must be completely free of dirt and grease. 3000
EX

Dry the stator (3000) and the stator housing (3001) fully.

Tip:
Only apply grease to the contact area between the stator housing and clamping
sleeve before reassembling the stator and housing.
Do not lubricate the contact surfaces of the stator (3000) and stator housing
(3001).

PL
Step 5: Assemble the iFD-Stator® (3005)
■ To assemble the stator clamping sleeve (3002),
reclamp the stator housing (3001) across its diameter
and slightly compress the housing.
CAUTION! 3002
Only compress the housing until the the clamping
sleeve can be easily slid onto the housing.
AM
■ Close the housing (3001) by sliding the clamping
sleeve (3002) over the housing guides - note that it
3001
should not be necessary to use force to do this.
Tip:
It is recommended that the clamping sleeve, which is shorter than the housing, is slid
on until it is sitting centrally on the housing.
■ Finally, release the housing from the clamps or vice.
CAUTION!
Check that the stator (3000) is centrally positioned in the stator housing (3001) before
releasing the clamps.

Step 6: Mount the iFD-Stator® (3005) on the pump


3010 2005
■ Slide the iFD-Stator® (3005) onto the rotor (1999)
EX

with the label facing upwards.


The iFD-Stator® appears to be slightly oversize when
it being assembled - allowing it to be easily slid onto 2010 3020
the rotor. This greatly simplifies stator replacement
1999
and allows maintenance and downtimes to be
reduced to a minimum.
■ Reinsert the thru bolts (3010) in the pump housing
(2010) and reassemble the end stub (2005). 3005
■ Tighten all nuts (3020).

12 Removal and Fitting of the Mechanical Seal

E
Utmost cleanliness must be observed for all removal and fitting activities.
Please avoid any damage to the sealing surfaces and gaskets.
The sealing unit is dismantled on the shaft.

■ Remove all visible connecting screws and pull apart the seal housing on the shaft.

PL
The seal housing can be made up of several parts, depending on the seal construction.
Compare the attached Sectional Drawing W…
■ Carefully remove the housing parts from the shaft together with the seal counter face
parts, one after the other.
■ Carefully push the seal counter face parts out of the housing parts.

Special care must be taken when fitting double PTFE-coated gaskets:


the joint of the outer coating must point away from the seal assembly direction,
otherwise the coating may open or be pulled off.

Refitting is a simple reversal of the above procedure.


AM
■ To reduce frictional forces during seal assembly, apply some glycerine to the shaft and
the seal housing in the area of the gaskets.

Ensure that the distribution of pressure is uniform when inserting the pressure
sensitive counter rings.
When inserting larger rings, use a suitable mandrel.
Do not allow any foreign bodies to get between the sliding surfaces.

Important: Exactly keep to the seal installation dimensions and ensure that the
sealing faces are correctly pressed together (see Manufacturer's catalogue).
