DESCRIPTION

General description and method of operation

SANIPUMP® is a waste water pumping station specially developed for private and commercial use. It is not intended for pumping rainwater. It can be installed in an outdoor sump (pumping grey water and black water).

The SANIPUMP® macerator has to be installed in a closed tank or a closed sump to prevent danger associated with blades.

Its operating principle is as follows: when the level of effluents contained in the sump where the SANIPUMP® is installed is sufficient, the “ON” float switch starts up the pumping station.
The effluent is automatically pumped to drain into the sewer pipe.
Waste water is discharged : – through DN 40 PVC Pressure pipe for SANIPUMP® bladed macerator

Noise level
The noise level depends on the fitting conditions and operating point. This sound pressure level Lp is less than 70 dB (A).

Pumped fluids

Pumping unauthorised fluids.
Dangerous for people and the environment!
➜ Only discharge authorised pumped fluids into the public sewerage network.

Authorised pumped fluids:

The following liquids are allowed in discharge system:

• Water contaminated by domestic use, human excrement, toilet roll.

Unauthorised pumped fluids:

The following liquids and substances are not to be handled by the pump: solid materials, fibres, tar, sand, cement, ash, coarse paper, hand towels, wipes, cardboard, rubble, rubbish, slaughterhouse waste, oils, hydrocarbons, greases, etc.

• Wastewater containing harmful substances (for example, untreated greasy waste from restaurants). Pumping these liquids and substances requires the fitting of a compliant grease trap.
• Rain water.

Installation of the SANIPUMP pumping station®

• The characteristics shown on the rating plate have been compared with those on the order and installation (supply voltage, frequency).
• The SANIPUMP® pumping station cannot be immersed in water more than 5 m deep.
• The installation must be protected against frost if installed in a frost-prone area

Electrical connection

Electrical connection work performed by an unqualified individual. Risk of death by electric shock!
➜ The electrical connection must be carried out by a qualified and licensed electrician.
➜ The electrical installation must meet the current standards in the country.

Wrong supply voltage. Damage to the pumping station!
➜ The supply voltage must not differ by more than 6% of the rated voltage specified on the rating plate.

Only carry out the electrical connections after the final connections have been completed. The device must be connected to an earthed junction box. The power supply circuit must be protected by a 30 mA differential circuit breaker rated at 16 A.
The connection must be used exclusively to provide the power to the product.
If the power cord is damaged, to prevent possible danger, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, customer service team or a similarly qualified individual.

ACTIVATION

Prerequisites for commissioning

Before commissioning the pumping station, make sure that the electrical connection of the pumping station has been carried out correctly.

• The safety instructions have been followed.
• The operating characteristics have been checked.
• The regulations in force at the place of installation are complied with.
• The operating instructions for the submersible pump are complied with.

Application limit

• Observe the operating specifications in the documentation.
• Do not run the pump with the isolation valve closed.
• Dry running, without pumped fluid, must be avoided unless for testing purposes. When in use, observe the following parameters and values:

Max. ambient temperature. 50°C
Operating mode| S3 30%

Starting and stopping

The automatic control starts and stops the pump when a defined level is reached.

Starting frequency

To prevent engine overheating and excessive stress on the engine, seals and bearings, limit the number of starts to 10 per hour.

Operations required for commissioning

Check the various points on the check-list (described in paragraph 3.6).

• Check the sump for cleanliness (no debris and foreign matter).
• Check that the discharge diameter is appropriate for the installation.
• Check that the power supply circuit is earthed and protected by a 30 mA differential circuit breaker.
• Check that the power cable is not cut or damaged.
• Check that the connection is only used to supply the pump.
• Carry out a functional test (switching on/off).
• Check the freedom of movement of the floats.
• Check the correct functioning of the non-return valve.
• Check that the gravity flow of wastewater into the sump is correct.
• Check the correct functioning and ease of operation of the shut-off valves.
• Check the flow at the discharge outlet.
• If the sump is sealed, ventilation must be installed so that it is always at atmospheric pressure. Air must flow in both directions.

Decommissioning

1. Close the valves on the supply pipes.
2. Drain the tank.
3. Close the discharge valve.
4. Switch off the electrical power supply and record the installation.

The power supply is not cut. Risk of electric shock !
➜ Unplug the plug or disconnect the steps required to avoid inadvertent electrical conductors and take the operation.

5. Inspect the hydraulic parts and shredding blades. Clean them if necessary.

Pumped fluids harmful to health. Dangerous for people and the environment!
➜ The pumping station used to discharge fluids harmful to health must be decontaminated.
If necessary, wear a mask and protective clothing.

MAINTENANCE

Work carried out on the pumping station by unqualified staff. Risk of injury!
➜ Repairs and maintenance must be performed by specially trained staff
➜ Observe the safety and basic instructions.

Pumped fluids harmful to health. Dangerous for people and the environment!
➜ Pumping stations used to discharge fluids that may be harmful to health must be decontaminated.
If necessary, wear a mask and protective clothing.

Work on the pumping station without adequate preparation. Risk of injury!
➜ Properly stop the pumping station and secure it against inadvertent operation.
➜ Close the inlet and discharge valves.
➜ Drain the sump in which the pumping station is installed.
➜ Allow the pumping station to cool to room temperature.

The pumping station must be maintained in such a way as to ensure proper discharge of wastewater and to detect and eliminate malfunctions at an early stage. The proper functioning of the pumping station must be checked by the user once a month by observing at least two operating cycles.
The interior of the sump should be checked from time to time and deposits should be disposed of as necessary.

Maintenance of the pumping station must be carried out by qualified personnel. The following intervals should not be exceeded:

• 6 months for pumping stations for commercial use.
• 1 year for pumping stations for domesticated

use.

NOTE:
Setting up a maintenance plan avoids costly repairs, minimizes maintenance work and achieves correct and reliable operation.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST

Inspection and maintenance:

• Turn off the power supply.
• Close the supply and discharge shut-off valves.
• Drain the sump.
• Unscrew the connection connecting the drain to the bottom of the pump.
• Remove the pumping station from the tank.
• Check the general condition of the pump, electrical cables, floats (switching on, tripping) and the shredding blade. (Contact SFA Technical Service if a replacement element is faulty).
• Clean the pump and float switches.
• Replace the pump and reconnect the discharge pipe to the pump base.
• Switch back on and open the shut-off valves.
• Perform several operating tests (switching on/off).
