This European standard establishes the technical safety requirements for constructing,
assembling, erecting, operating, servicing of a liquid pump or pump unit.
It contains a list of significant hazards, which can arise with the use of a liquid pump or pump unit, and
establishes the requirements and/or measures which will lead to a reduction of the risks.
Liquid pumps are described as rotodynamic pumps, rotary positive displacement pumps, reciprocating
displacement pumps, supplied separately without driver.
In general, pumps are defined as being terminated by their inlet and outlet connections as well as by their
shaft ends.
Pump units comprise the liquid pump types above together with a driver (electric motor or i.c.-engine)
including transmission elements, baseplates, and any auxiliary equipment.
