FLOTIDE SC Series Centrifugal Pump User Manual

IMPORTANT NOTICE

All FLOTIDE pumps must be wired to the main power supply with correct rating and by a certified electrician. Installation of electrical items must comply with Local Rules and

Ordinances. Below information are for reference only:

  • Local Rules (UK): According to BS7671
  • Local Rules (NL): According to NEN1010
  • Local Rules (Be): According to AREI 50

Pump Mount Must:

4Be solid,  level, rigid  and free from vibration.
4Allow use of short, direct suction pipe. (To reduce friction losses & do not install the pump at more than 3M geometrical height from water level)
4Flowgates should be used in suction and discharge piping.
4Have adequate floor drainage to prevent flooding.
4Be protected from excess moisture.
4All adequate access for pump and piping servicing.

NOTICE:

Pump suction and discharge connections have moulded in thread stops, DO NOT try to screw pipe in beyond these stops.

OPERATION

NEVER run pump dry! Running pump dry may damage seals, causing leakage and flooding! Fill pump with water before starting motor.

!  Before removing lid:
STOP PUMP before proceeding.
CLOSE GATE VALVES in suction and discharge pipes. RELEASE ALL PRESSURE from pump and piping system. NEVER tighten or loosen screws while pump is operation.
! Do not block pump suction! To do so with body may cause severe or fatal injury. Children using pool must ALWAYS have close adult
Supervision!

Priming Pump:

Release all air from filter and piping system: see filter owner manual.
In a flooded suction system (water source higher than pump),
pump will prime itself when suction and discharge valves are opened.
If pump is not in a flooded suction system, unscrew and remove trap cover; fill trap and pump with water.
Clean and inspect Ring; re-install on trap cover.
Replace trap cover on trap; turn clockwise to tighten cover.
NOTICE: Tighten trap cover by hand only.
Pump should prime now. Priming time will depend on vertical length of suction lift and horizontal length of suction piping.

Routine Maintenance

The only routine maintenance needed is inspection/cleaning of trap basket. Debris or trash that collects in basket, will choke off water flow through the pump. Follow instructions below to clean trap: 1.Stop pump, close gate valve in suction and discharge, and release all pressure from system before proceeding.

  1. Unscrew trap lid (turn counterclockwise).
  2. Remove strainer basket and clean. Be sure all holes in basket are clear,flush basket with water and replace in trap with large opening at pipe connection port (between ribs provided). If basket is replaced backwards cover will not fit on trap
  3. Clean and inspect lid Ring; reinstall on trap
  4. Clean Ring groove on trap body and Replace lid. To help keep lid from sticking, tighten hand tight
  5. Prime pump (see priming instructions above)
