2 Use
2.1 Proper use
The pumps are intended exclusively for transferring gases and vapors.
Responsibility of the owner
Operating parameters and
conditions
Only install and operate the pumps in accordance with the operating pa-
rameters and conditions described in Chapter 4 Technical data and Chap-
ter 2.3 Use in potentially explosive areas.
Pumps with ATEX designation do not always satisfy the regulations
for potentially explosive atmospheres in countries outside of the EU.
Only pumps that are fully assembled and in the condition as delivered may
be operated.
Make sure that the installation location is dry and that the pump is pro-
tected against rain, splash, gushing, and drip water as well as from other
contaminants.
The pump is suitable for transferring potentially explosive atmospheres
and for operation in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Check the tightness of the connections between the pipes of the applica-
tion and the pump (or the connection of the pump) at regular intervals.
Leaky connections carry the risk of releasing dangerous gases and vapors
from the pump system.
Requirements on the transferred
medium
Before transferring a medium, check whether the medium can be trans-
ferred danger-free in the specific application.
Before using a medium, check the compatibility of the media-contacting
components (see 4 Technical data) with the medium.
Risk of dangerous gas mixtures during pump operation if diaphragm
breaks: Depending on the medium being transferred, breakage of the di-
aphragm can result in a dangerous mixture if the medium mixes with the
air in the compressor housing or the surroundings.
Make certain that no risk of explosion arises even in extreme operating sit-
uations (temperature, pressure) and in the event of system breakdowns.
Only transfer gases that remain stable under the pressures and tempera-
tures that arise in the pump.
2.2 Improper use
The pumps are not suitable for use below ground.
The pumps are not suitable for delivering:
§Dusts
§Fluids
§Aerosols
§Biological and microbiological substances
§Explosives
§Fibers
§Foodstuffs.
Pumps that can produce both vacuum as well as overpressure may not be
used to simultaneously produce vacuum and overpressure.
This function can be made possible on a project basis following consulta-
tion with KNF Customer Service.
No overpressure may be applied to the suction side of the pump.

The classification of gases and vapors into groups with respect to explo-
sion group and temperature class applies for the transferred medium as
well as for the pump surroundings.
Transferred medium The device must only be used to transfer gases and vapors that belong to
the respective explosion group and the corresponding temperature class
(or lower), (see designation on the type plate) or which are not explosive
and not combustible.
Surroundings of the device The devices may only be operated in an environment with an atmosphere
that belongs to the respective explosion group and the corresponding tem-
perature class (or below) (see designation on the type plate) or which is
not explosive and not combustible.

2.4.4 Temperature classes
Maximum surface temperature The maximum surface temperature is the highest temperature reached by
a surface of the device under the most unfavorable conditions.
Ignition temperature The maximum surface temperature of the device must always be lower
than the lowest ignition temperature of the gas/air or vapor/air mixture in
which it is used.
Temperature class The maximum surface temperature is derived from the construction of the
device and is stated as the temperature class.

Tab.6
The temperature class of the pump was determined using air. If gas mix-
tures consisting mainly of gases with a greater isentropic exponent than
that of air (helium, argon, xenon, neon, krypton) are pumped, compressing
these mixtures can give rise to higher gas temperatures, and consequently
higher surface temperatures as well. This must be taken into account and
if necessary tested before operating the pump. When gas mixtures of this
kind are pumped, it is recommended to run the pump with water cooling
connected.

3 Safety
Observe the safety notices in Chapters 7 Installation and connec-
tion and 8 Operation.
The pumps are produced in accordance with the generally recognized
rules of engineering, as well as the occupational health, safety and acci-
dent prevention regulations. Nevertheless, dangers can arise during their
use that lead to injuries to the user or third parties or to damage to the
pump or other property.
Only use the pumps in perfect technical condition, for their intended pur-
pose, safely and aware of the dangers and in observation of the operating
instructions.
The components that are to be connected to the pumps must be designed
according to the pneumatic data of the pumps.
When connecting the pumps to the electrical mains, observe the corre-
sponding safety rules.
Personnel Make sure that only specialized personnel work on the pumps. This ap-
plies in particular for connection and maintenance work.
Make sure that the personnel have read and understood the operating in-
structions, particularly the chapter on safety.
Working in a safety conscious
manner
Observe the regulations on accident prevention and safety during all work
on the pumps and during operation.
Avoid contact with the heads and housing parts, as the pump heats up
during operation.
When working on the pump, make certain that the pump is disconnected
from mains and without power.
Ensure that no hazards arise from gas flowing when gas connections are
open, from the effects of noise or from hot, corrosive, dangerous and envi-
ronmentally hazardous gases.
Classification of a pump
environment
When classifying a pump environment in a potentially explosive area
(zone), observe the "Guideline for Preventing Danger from Explosive At-
mospheres, with a Collection of Examples – Explosion Protection Guide-
lines – (EX-RL)".
If the situation relates to special cases or if doubt exists about the defini-
tion of the potentially explosive atmospheres, inform the regulatory authori-
ties and have them make the decision.
Use in a potentially explosive
environment
The following applies for use in a potentially explosive environment con-
sisting of gases, vapors and mists:
The lowest ignition temperature of the potentially explosive atmospheres
that comes into question must be higher than the "maximum surface tem-
perature" of the pump.
According to DIN EN ISO 80079-36, the maximum surface temperature is
the highest temperature that is achieved during operation under the most
unfavorable conditions (but within the accepted tolerances) of a part or on
a surface of the pump.
The maximum surface temperature is specified from the design of the
pump and noted on the pump type plate as the temperature class.
Explosion protection The introduction of ignition sources such as sparks, open flames and hot
surfaces may result in explosions in potentially explosive atmospheres.
Therefore, during transport, during installation and during all work on the
device in the potentially explosive atmosphere:
§Only perform work when there is no possibility of a potentially explo-
sive atmosphere.
Safety Diaphragm pump N922 EX
14 Translation of Original Operation and Installation Instruction, english, KNF 313600 05/23
§Only use tools and lifting gear that are approved for use in potentially
explosive atmospheres.
Handling of hazardous media Upon breakage of the diaphragm and/or leaks, the transferred medium
mixes with the air in the surroundings and/or in the pump housing. Make
sure that a dangerous situation cannot arise as a result.
When pumping hazardous media, follow the safety regulations that govern
working with these media.
Handling of combustible media Make certain that the temperature of the medium is always sufficiently be-
low the ignition temperature of the medium so as to prevent ignition or ex-
plosion. This also applies for abnormal operating situations.
At the same time, note that the temperature of the medium rises as the
pump compresses the medium.
Therefore, make certain that the temperature of the medium also remains
sufficiently below the ignition temperature of the medium even when it is
compressed to the maximum permissible operating pressure of the pump.
The maximum permissible operating pressure of the pump is stated in
Chapter 4 Technical data.
Make certain that the permissible ambient temperature (4 Technical data)
is not exceeded.
Where applicable, also take into account external energy sources (such as
radiated heat sources) that might heat the medium further.
In case of doubt, contact KNF Customer Service.
Environmental protection Store all spare parts so that they are protected according to environmental
protection regulations. Observe the national and international regulations.
This applies in particular to parts that are contaminated with toxic sub-
stances.
This product is marked in conformance with the EU directive on the dis-
posal of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE). Old devices

Diaphragm pumps transfer, compress (depending on the version) and evacu-
ate gases and vapors.
The elastic diaphragm (4) is moved up and down by the eccentric (5) and the
connecting rod (6). In the downwards stroke, it aspirates the gas to be trans-
ferred via the inlet valve (2). In the upwards stroke, the diaphragm presses the
medium out of the pump head via the outlet valve (1). The transfer chamber
(3) is separated from the pump drive by the diaphragm.
