1.2 Safety rules
With regard to safety, all pumps meet the regulations in force UNI EN 809.
The manufacturer should select the pump type according to the kind of liquid used and to
the technical specifications (output, pressure) to fulfil.
The Bertolini diaphragm pumps are designed with materials that are compatible with water
and with the most of pesticides and herbicides currently on the market in the concentration
recommended by the producers.
The pumps should be used only with liquids compatible with the pump component
materials. Failure to follow this warning can result in injury and/or property damage.
The technical specifications of the pump (RPM, output, pressure) are shown on the label
put on the pump. For more information refer to our Technical Department.
The manufacturer should take care of the proper selection and correct size of the operation
system to prevent possibly bodily injury.
Make certain that the electric, gasoline/diesel motors, or driven systems conform to the
recommended performance, to prevent personal injury and environment damage.
The manufacturer should take a special care of the design and construction of the
equipment, to prevent bodily injury, coming not from the pump, but from the design,
construction or wrong use of the equipment.
When wiring an electrically driven pump follow all electrical and safety regulations EN
60204.1 (refer to "Installation").
