Series 823, 825 and 827 pumps are designed for long, 
trouble-free service life under a wide variety of application 
conditions with a minimum of maintenance  The points listed 
below will help provide long service life 
FIGURE 3 
SPECIAL INFORMATION
CAUTION !
Rare earth magnets used in these 
couplings have extremely strong 
magnetic fields capable of changing the 
performance or damaging items such as 
the following:
 Pacemakers
 
Metal Implants
 Watches
 
Computers & discs
 
Credit Cards
Completely assembled magnetic 
couplings will not affect items listed 
above.
Altered performance or damage can 
occur only when the coupling halves are 
separated.
There are no known harmful effects of 
these magnetic fields on the human 
body.
MAINTENANCE
ROTATION: Viking Mag-Drive® pumps are designed to run 
in the direction indicated on the nameplate only  If rotation 
must be reversed, 
see “Pump Rotation” on page 10.
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVES:
1.  Relief valves are mounted on the head of K and KK 
size pumps  Relief Valves are not available on jacketed 
heads 
2.  If a Relief Valve is not furnished on the pump, some 
means of over protection such as an in-line relief valve 
should be provided  Do not rely on magnets decoupling 
for protection from over pressure  This may result in 
damage to magnets, pump or other equipment 
3.  Relief valve adjusting screw cap must always point 
towards suction side of pump   If pump rotation is 
reversed, remove pressure relief valve and turn end for 
end 
(See “Pump Rotation” on page 10 for additional 
steps required for proper operation)   
See Figure 3.
4.  Pressure relief valves cannot be used to control pump 
flow or regulate discharge pressure 
For additional information on pressure relief valves, 
refer 
to Technical Service Manual TSM000 and Engineering 
Service Bulletin ESB-31.
DANGER !
Before opening any Viking pump liquid 
chamber (pumping chamber, reservoir, 
etc.) Be sure:
1.  That any pressure in the chamber has 
been completely vented through the 
suction or discharge lines or other 
appropriate openings or connections. 
(See detailed procedure for venting 
the pumps, pages 4, 5 and 6).
2. That the driving means (motor,  
turbine, engine, etc.) has been 
“locked out” or made otherwise non- 
operational so that it cannot be 
inadvertently started while work is 
being done on the pump. 
3. That you know what liquid the 
pump has been handling and the 
precautions necessary to safely 
handle the liquid. Obtain a material 
safety data sheet (MSDS) for the 
liquid to be sure these precautions 
are understood.
Failure to follow above listed 
precautionary measures may result in 
serious injury or death.
