7.3 Operating the Pump
Operating the Pump DANGER Bodily injuries and property damage!
Incorrectly setting the pump in operation may lead to 
unexpected and uncontrolled movements of the machine / 
equipment and as a result may lead to bodily injuries or 
property damage.
• Only trained personnel should be allowed to operate the 
pump.
• Have the equipment manufacturer or operator assure that 
no uncontrolled signals are being transmitted to the pump.
• Have the equipment manufacturer or the operator assure 
that a pump malfunction (e. g. piston jam caused by crud) 
is recognized so that a malfunction of the axle / machine / 
equipment can be prevented.
WARNING Risk of Burns!
Pump parts run hot while in operation.
• Do not touch the pump while it is running.
WARNING Damage to Property!
Operating the pump without operating fluid will result in the 
pump running dry and damage to the pump.
• Only start up the pump when the pump housing is 
completely filled with operating fluid.
WARNING RKP-D:
The protective conductor connection, if provided, is connected 
to the electronics housing or valve body. The insulation 
materials employed are designed for use in the safety extra-
low-voltage range. The field bus circuit connections, if 
provided, are only functionally galvanically isolated from other 
connected circuits. To comply with safety regulations requires 
isolation from the mains according to EN 61558-1 and EN 
61558-2-6 and limiting all voltages according to EN60204-1.
We recommend using SELV/PELV power supplies.
