NOTICE
Do not connect inlet to the emergency drain!
The pump chamber is pumped out via the emergency drain in the event of an acci-
dent. Do not connect inlets to the emergency drain! The pump chamber cannot be
drained in case of emergency otherwise!
In case of maintenance work or pump malfunction, the pump chamber can be emptied
via the emergency drain. It is recommended to install a diaphragm hand pump for this
purpose.
CAUTION! If the pumps malfunction, there is backflow into the inlet and the pump
chamber can burst! Shut off the inlet and drain the pump chamber.
