3/ DESCRIPTION
3.1 - IDENTIFICATION OF THE PUMP
ALBIN PUMPS are identifiable by the pump plate located on the upper bracket. This one includes the type and
serial number of the pump. This serial number leads to all information concerning building materials, nature of
the hose, characteristics of the gearbox and characteristics of the motor. The gearbox as well as the motor
include their own descriptive plate on which you can read the reduction ratio, power and electrical voltage
etc.
3.2 - OPERATION PRINCIPLE
PHASE 1
The pump hose is compressed successively by two pressing
shoes assembled on a rotating wheel. The first shoe, by
pressing the walls of the hose, will create a vacuum and at-
tract the pumped liquid into the hose.
PHASE 2
The pumped liquid has now entered the hose. The second
shoe will compress the hose and push the liquid towards
the pump outlet.
PHASE 3
As soon as, at the discharge side, the shoe is detached from
the hose, the other shoe diametrically opposite is already in
compression thus avoiding an internal product leakage. The
product is then successively sucked and pushed due to the
wheel rotation.

4.1 - UNPACKING AND CONTROL
During the reception of the pump, please follow the indications pointed out on the packing. Undertake a
visual control to be sure that no damage happened during the transport. If this is the case, please contact
your ALBIN PUMP distributor as soon as possible.
4.2 - CONDITIONS OF USE

ALH pumps can work in atmospheres where the temperature is situated between - 20C and +45C. Pumps
are delivered painted with a 150 polyurethane paint which allows them to resist to certain aggressive ambi-
ences. They are designed for indoor and outdoor setups.
4.3 - SET UP

Before installing the pump, check the following points :
- The pump is delivered with a frame provided with four anchoring holes. It must be fixed on a solid
base with a slope which does not exceed 5mm for 1m and must be firmly fastened to this one.
- Require enough space around the pump to carry out maintenance. If such was not possible, consider
themoving of the pump to a space provided for this purpose.
- Make sure that the room is adequately ventilated to relieve the heat generated by the pump. Leave a
space behind the motor ventilator hood so as not to obstruct air intake.
4.4 - PIPING
Suction line piping :
- The internal diameter of the piping must be superior to that of the pump hose (see 3.4.).
- It must be the shortest and most direct possible to avoid suction loss.
- Install a valve on the suction line especially if the pump is on load.
- Limit the presence of bends and make sure that they are as large as possible.
- Make sure that piping can support the service pressure of the pump.
Discharge line piping :
-The internal diameter of piping must be superior to that of the pump hose (see 3.4.).
- It must be the shortest and most direct possible to avoid discharge pressure loss.
- Limit the presence of bends and make sure that they are as large as possible.
- Provide a space for a pulsation dampener (see picture below).
- If there is a valve on the discharge line, install a pressure valve or a over pressure protection gauge to
avoid any possible damage to the pump and to the installation.
- It is recommended to install a Dillatoflex pipe to absorb vibrations created by the pump pulsations.

6.5 - SHOE SHIMMING
NOT : this paragraph does not concern pumps ALH05 to ALH20.
CAUTION ! The shimming of shoes is an operation which consists in adding

shims under the shoe to stop any internal leakage. An internal leakage con-
siderably reduces the life time of the hose as well as the flow. As a result, it is
essential to adjust the shoes shimming according to the rotation speed of the
pump, the desired discharge pressure and the liquid viscosity.

WARNING ! Never run the pump without the sight glass.
The shoe shimming can be made without disassembling the hose or the cover.
Shims are inserted or withdrawn by the sight glass as pointed out below :

1 - Jog run the motor and bring a shoe in front of the sight glass.
2 - Cut the power supply of the pump.
3 - Unscrew the sight glass bolts and withdraw taking care in not damaging
the seal.
4 - Slightly unscrew the shoes fastening bolt(s) and lift the shoe off the
wheel with a screwdriver or a similar tool.
5 - You can now either slide in or withdraw the necessary number of shims
under the shoe.
Consult the shimming table 9.6 to determine the precise number of shims
according to your application.
6 - Tighten the shoe bolts.
7 - Reassemble the sight glass with its seal.
8 - Re-connect and jog run the motor to bring the second shoe in front of the
sight glass.
9 - Cut the power supply of the pump.
10 - Repeat operations 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7. Replace the sight glass seal REF46

6.7 - ALHS SERIES COMPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
6.7.1 - SET UP

Before the setup of the pump, check the following points :
- The ALHS pump is delivered without a frame. Assembly holes are at the back of the pump for assem-
bly on a frame. Dimensions of these assembly holes can be found in 9.2 l. The pump with its drive
and frame must be fixed to a solid base with a slope which does not exceed 5mm for 1m and must be
firmly fastened to this one.
- The pump frame must be built in order to support the stress and deformations delivered by the pump
and drive. It should be built by qualified staff with good engineering practice. In no case ALBIN PUMP
AB is responsible for its construction or conception.
- The alignment of pump and drive shafts must be made in accordance with instructions given by the
manufacturer of the coupling. Refer to the specific notice of such material. To achieve alignment and
coupling, use a perfectly straight ruler to control the misalignment, and a feeler gauge for angular mis-
alignment. Control four points (top, bottom, left, right) at each stage of the installation (after setting on
foundations, after fixing pipes and after a first start).
- Make sure there is enough room around the pump to carry out maintenance. If that was not the case,
envisage the moving of the pump in a space provided for this purpose.
- Make sure the room is adequately ventilated to relieve the heat generated by the pump. Leave a
space behind the motor ventilator hood so as not to obstruct the air intake.

6.7.2 - PUMP STARTING
Follow the steps described in 5. The hose is not mounted on bare shaft pumps when delivered. Therefore,
hose mounting operations should be followed before the starting up.
6.7.3 - BEARING CASE DISMANTLING AND LIP SEAL POS26 REPLACEMENT
Carry out operations described in 6.4.2. Disassemble the bearing case in the same way as for the gearbox.
1 - Remove lip seals POS105 and POS106 from the bearing case.
2 - Remove the circlips POS 107.
3 - Remove the shaft with the bearings.
4 - Carry out the disassembly of the bearings and replace them together with the shaft POS102 if nec-
essary.
5 - Remonte the shaft and the bearings, circlips and O rings. Feel up the bearing box with grease
through the greaseer positioned on the top of the box.
6.7.4 - MAINTENANCE AND PERIODICAL CONTROLS

Regularly check the absence of greasee coming from the leakage channel or from the lip seal POS106.
7/ STORAGE
7.1 - STORAGE OF THE PUMP
Store the pump in a sheltered and dry place and ensure that the storage room temperature is between - 20C
and +45C. Protect the pump if necessary and block the inlet and outlet orifices : if the pump stays without
working more than 1 month, withdraw the hose from the pump or withdraw one of the shoes as well as its
centring pin and position the wheel so that the second shoe can be seen threw the sight glass.For models
ALH05-10-15-20, position the wheel so that one of the cam lobes remains submerged in the lubricant. If you
can neither withdraw the hose or one of the shoes, run the pump 5min a week.
22

ALH since 1928
7.2 - STORAGE OF THE PUMP HOSES
Hoses must be stored sheltered from light in a cool place. Their life is reduced after two years. The perfor-
mance of hoses is reduced at the end of this expiry date due to the ageing of rubber.

1 - Pumps certification level
All ALBIN peristaltic pumps are certified with II 2G T4, II 3G T4 or II 2D T4 certification.
All ALBIN peristaltic pumps are certified with II 2G T4, II 3G T4 or II 2D T4 certification. The pumps are ma-
chines whose surface temperatures are very dependent on the temperature of the product that they pump.
Moreover, the peristaltic pumps have mechanical heating due to the deformations of the hose, depending
on the discharge pressure and speed of rotation of the pump. So, the level of protection II 2G T4, II 3G T4,
II 3D T4 and II 3D T4 is obtained with the working limits determined at the reception of the ATEX form (see
adjoined form).
Pumps ALHO5, ALHS05, ALH10, ALHS10, ALH20 and ALHS20 are limited to a maximum discharge
pressure of 7.5 bars.
Pumps ALH 25 to 125 and AHS25 to ALHS125 are limited to a maximum discharge pressure of 15 bars.
Going beyond of the working limitations specified at the sale is regarded as an abnormal function of the
pump.This can generate surface temperatures higher than the safe maximum surface temperatures recom-
mended in the classification of temperature T for which the pump was certified. It is the responsibility of the
operator to respect these working limits.
In order to use the pump industrially with the required safety levels, safety devices have been provided (see
the chapters Protection of the pumping part and Protection of the transmission part).
2 - Protection of the pumping part
The heating of the pumping part is directly related to the functioning temperature of the hose. The lifespan of
the hose, which is the heart of any peristaltic pump, is strongly dependent on the working temperature of the
hose : it imposes the working limits of the ALBIN peristaltic pumps. Consequentially, the working temperature
of the hose (and thus the heating of the pump) must be known and controlled, and it depends on the three
following parameters :
> Temperature of pumped product

> Number of rotations of the pump
> Discharge pressure

ALH
For pumps II 2G T4
Use of a PT100 temperature sensor only in a gas atmosphere.

The permanent control of the maximum surface temperature of the pump housing makes it possible to control
the heating of the pump effectively.
In the event of dysfunction of the pump (excessive rotation, too high temperature of pumped product, unsuit-
able shimming of the shoes), the temperature sensor will detect any passing over the critical temperature of
the body and will stop the pump before the surface temperatures of the pump exceed the limit corresponding
to the classification of temperature T of the pump.
The threshold of release of the temperature sensor will have to be adjusted from 0C to 75C more or less
5C, with a 10C hysteresis.
For the certified pumps II 3G T4, II 2D and II 3D :
For dust zones, D becomes IP6X
According to the specific requirements for ATEX materials group II category 3, the use of such materials in
an exposable atmosphere is adapted only under normal working conditions of the known material.
Thus, the end-user must make sure that the pump is used under normal working conditions, and that the
particular working limits indicated in this manual are respected.
3 - Protection of the transmission part
The reducer and the motor which motorize the pump must be used within the limits of working defined by
the manufacturers of these materials. Going beyond these limits is likely to generate a risk of ignition of the
atmosphere surrounding the material.
The ALBIN PUMP installations are in particular designed so that the normal working conditions of the pump do
not generate an overload of the motor or the reducer.
So that the function limits of these components are not exceeded, even in case of dysfunction of the pump,
the motor will have to be protected from the overcurrents, in accordance with the code of practice.
50

ALH since 1928
4 - Particular dispositions when using a frequency inverter
The ALBIN peristaltic pumps have variable limits of working according to the discharge pressure, number of
rotations of the pump and temperature of the pumped product. These working limits are mainly imposed by
the heating of the hose, on which the lifespan is strongly dependent.
Within the framework of an application required to change the speed of the pump, the three following points
will have to be checked.
> Temperature of pumped product

> Number of rotations of the pump
> Discharge pressure
The maximum values of use will be fixed at the determination of the pump whose copy is in the appendix.
5 - Dry running the pumps
The ALBIN peristaltic pumps can function in the absence of liquid in the pump, without causing heating of
the pump higher than the classified of temperature T, in particular for the period of starting-up of the pump.
In fact, dry running the pump with blocked inlets or outlets generates too high a demand on the pump hose,
and can generate high internal temperatures because of the compression and decompression of the air
locked up between the pump and the blocked opening.
This type of dysfunction is not controllable by a safety device (of sensor type) because the pump is dry and
the mechanical constraints generated on the pump are low. Starting up the pump must thus be done after
having checked that the inlet and outlet are not blocked.
Nevertheless, dry running is not a normal function of the pump and if it doesnt directly constitute a risk of
ignition, it leads to premature wear and tear of the hose. This type of function must be limited as much as
possible.
51

since 1928
ALH
6 - Replacement of parts
The parts should be replaced only by original ALBIN parts which correspond to the configuration of origin of
the pump. If necessary, the characteristics of the pump are modified and the ATEX certification of the pump
is not applicable any more.
With each hose replacement, the adjustment of compression of the hose must be controlled and adapted to
the instructions of adjustment registered in the handbook.
The technicians who intervene on ATEX material must be ATEX trained and approved.
7 - Solvents incompatible with the pumps seals
The user must make sure that the seals and the hose with which the pump is equipped are compatible with
the pumped product and the products used in the cleaning of the pump.
8 - Possible leakages of pumped liquid
The possible leakages of liquid by the pumps seals do not generate a risk of ignition as long as the explosive
atmosphere surrounding the material corresponds to the type of atmosphere for which it was planned.
You have to check that in contact with the atmosphere surrounding the pump or of a material located near
the pump, the pumped liquids are not likely to create an explosive atmosphere for which the material was not
envisaged.
The rupture of the hose, which is a wearing part, can involve important leakage of pumped liquid. A hose
detector makes it possible to detect these leakages and will stop the pump if necessary.
9 - Checking of the lubricant level in the pump
An insufficient lubricant level in the pump can generate surface temperatures higher than the recommended
limit of temperature T of the pump. Stop the pump and check the lubricant level every 1000 working hours.
52

ALH since 1928
10 - Drive the pump
The maximum speed of rotation of the pumps must be respected (see certification of the pumps). At the start
or after any modification of the pumping installation, the speed of rotation of the pump must be controlled and
must be lower than the maximum speed indicated in the instructions.
10 - 1 - Alignment of the pump and the drive (only for the ALHS pumps)
To carry out the alignment and the coupling, use a perfectly straight ruler to control offsetting and thickness
gauges for angular misalignment.
It is important to control alignment with each stage of the installation as indicated below in order to make
sure that none of these stages generate constraints on the group or the pump :
- after fixing the pump on the foundations

- after fixing the piping
- after the pump has functioned at a normal temperature of use
IMPORTANT : one should not rely on the flexible coupling to compensate for a misalignment.
10 - 2 - Flexible coupling
Certified ATEX flexible coupling must be used. These couplings must have a level of protection equivalent
or higher than that of the pumping installation.
For the instructions of maintenance of certified ATEX flexible coupling of the ALBIN pumping installations,
please refer to the technical note of the coupling.
10 - 3 - Electric installation of the motor or the motor reducer of the pump
Check the agreement between the indications of the motor gauge and the supply voltage.
For the connection of the motor to the electrical supply network, follow the indications of the manual sup-
plied with the motor. Follow the assembly diagram of wiring, make sure the wires are adapted to the power
consumption and make sure the contacts are tight.
The motors must be protected by suitable circuit breakers and fuses.
Make sure the earth connections are properly made.
Dry run the pump to make sure that the connections are correct and that the direction of rotation corre-
sponds well with the suction and the discharge of the installation.

10 - 4 - Ground connection of pump
A bonding strip lug can be seen on the frames of ALH type pumps and on the pump housing and bearing
case of the ALHS type pumps.
10 - 5 - ATEX characteristics of the motor or the motor reducer of the pump
The motor or motor reducer must have ATEX characteristics adapted to recognized use (group gas IIB, class
of temperature T4) and must explosion-proof.
11 - ATEX characteristics of the pumping installation
A pumping installation can be composed of materials (motor, reducer, sensors) from which ATEX charac-
teristics are different from those of the pump.
In this case, the group will have ATEX characteristics corresponding to characteristics ATEX of the component
with the lowest level of protection.
12 - Pumping vat of retention
At a constant arrival of liquid in a vat of retention in an ATEX zone, the uninterrupted start-up can generate a
classification in zone 0.
The case can only arise when the pump is used in the starting position. It is then imperative that the suction
pipe always has liquid present so as not to create explosive conditions in the presence of fuel and combus-
tive agents. Thus, the adjustment of the low point of the tank will have to be higher than the opening of the
suction pipe.
That will always result in the presence of liquid and not of gas and liquid.
13 - Marking of the pump
The marking of the ALBIN PUMPS is of type :
ALBIN :
TYPE ALH or ALHS
II 2 G T4 or II 3 G T4
N series :
Year :
The marking of the ALBIN GROUPS is of type :

ALBIN :
Group ALH or ALHS
II 2 G T4 or II 3 G T4
N series :
Year :
In the case of a pumping group, ATEX certified materials will retain their original markings.

SAFETY AND CONTROL MEASURES TO RESPECT IMPERATIVELY

1 - Mechanical risk
Ensure that all protections (cover, sight glass, ventilator hood, coupling protection) are in place before oper-
ating the pump. Disconnect the electricity supply before any mechanical intervention, except during a hose
replacement. Hose replacement must be done with the pump cover closed.
While replacing a hose, wear protective gloves and clothes and keep hands away from the brackets, suc-
tion
and discharge flanges.
During the pump maintenance, check that the lifting points are correctly used.
The frame of the pump must be firmly fastened to the ground.
2 - Electrical risk
Ensure that the electrical installation is conforming to the standards required in the country of use especially
regarding earth and thermal protection.
3 - Operational risk
Check the compatibility of the products to be pumped with:

- The peristaltic pump principle.
- The hose material.
- The lubricant.
- The inserts material.
- The shoe material.
ALBIN PUMP cannot guaranty the hose lifetime or the product loss due to a hose burst. It is the operators re-
sponsibility to prevent pumped liquid loss with additional hose rupture detectors and or automatic shutdown
valves. Check 2.4 conditions of guarantee for further information. Ensure that the pump is compatible with
the required process. Ensure that the pressure applied on the suction side is compatible with the pump. The
rupture of the hose and its consequences must be taken in account :
- The pump casing can be filled with the pumped product.

- If the suction line is on load, this one can empty into the pump casing and leak out of the pump.
- If the discharge line is under pressure, the pumped product may be forced back into the pump casing and
leak out of the pump.
A leakage detector as well as automatic shutdown valves are recommended in order to prevent such conse-
quences.
While draining the pump following a hose rupture, take note of the risk of pollution caused by the lubricant
and by the pumped product.
The pump, being volumetric, may suffer dangerously high pressure by even partial blockage of the discharge
line.
Ensure that all protections have been made regarding this aspect.
Before each use, check the direction of rotation of the pump. While placing the pump under vacuum, mount
window screws using an airtight glue to avoid air leakage.
