GENERALITIES

The instructions that we provide are intended for the correct installation and optimum performance of the automatic constant-pressure water groups.

Please read these instructions before installation.

Save them for future reference

The pump is suitable for pumping clean water.
All the metallic components in contact with the liquid are made of stainless steel and the plastic components are of the type approved for the use of food liquids.
In the application of European regulation 547/2012, the minimum efficiency index must be MEI ≥ 0.40.
The reference value for the most efficient hydraulic pumps is MEI > 0.70.
Information on efficiency benchmarks can be found at: http://europump.net/uploads/Fingerprints.pdf.

The performance curves and their efficiency characteristics can be consulted in the technical catalogs and www.espa.com.

HANDLING

Any maintenance operation on the pump must be carried out by specialized personnel after disconnecting from the electrical network.
The product must be handled with care and with adequate lifting means, since falls and shocks can damage it, even without external damage. See the diagrams for lifting the unpackaged product. (Fig.1).
The operation of this hydraulic pump with puncture-variable work rates, it can be more efficient and economical if it is controlled, for example, by using a speed regulation control that adjusts the work of the pump to the system.
THE PUMP DOES NOT MUST NEVER RUN DRY.

INSTALLATION

COUPLING THE PUMP TO THE MOTOR.

The pump is suitable for coupling to a 4” submersible motor conforming to NEMA standards.
To obtain a correct coupling proceed as follows (Fig. 2): unscrew the fastening screws (B) and unhook the outer pump box (G) to remove the cable protection (A). Make sure the shaft, joint and mating surfaces are clean.
Place the motor (C) in a vertical position. ESPA-ES4-Submersible-Wet-End-
For-4-Boreholes-fig-2 Couple the pump to the motor taking care to align the “cable grommet” opening in the lower bracket with the motor cable outlet.
Once the coupling has been made, screw the nuts (D) onto the tie rods (E) fixing the pump to the motor, tightening them in sequence according to the diagonals or with a tightening torque of 16-20 Nm. Extend the motor cable (F) along the pump (G) and cover it with cable protection (A). Hook the cable protection to the box and fix it with the screws (B).
The manufacturer declines any responsibility for damage caused by wrong connections.

MAINTENANCE
