About this document
The language of the original operating instructions in English. All other languages of these instructions are translations of the original operating instructions. These installation and operating instructions are an integral part of the product. They must be kept readily available at the place where the product is installed. Strict adherence to these instructions is a precondition for the proper use and correct operation of the product. This installation and operating instructions correspond to the relevant version of the product and the underlying safety standards valid at the time of going to print. EC declaration of conformity: A copy of the EC declaration of conformity is a component of these operating instructions. If a technical modification is made on the designs named there without our agreement, this declaration loses its validity.

Safety
These operating instructions contain basic information which must be adhered to during installation, operation, and maintenance. For this reason, these operating instructions must, without fail, be read by the service technician and the responsible specialist/ operator before installation and commissioning. It is not only the general safety instructions listed under the main point “safety” that must be adhered to but also the special safety instructions with danger symbols included under the following main points.

7.3 Electrical connection
WARNING! Risk of electric shock! Danger from electrical current must be eliminated.

  • Have all electrical work carried out by a qualified electrician only!

  • Before any electrical connection is made, the pump must be de-energized (switched off) and protected against unauthorized restarting.

  • To ensure safe installation and operation, the unit must be earthed correctly with the earth terminals of the power supply.
    CAUTION! An error in the electrical connection will damage the motor. The power cable must never touch the piping or the pump and must be kept away from any moisture.

  • See the pump cladding for its electrical characteristics (frequency, voltage, current).

  • The single-phase motor of this pump has a built-in thermal protector.

  • See the wiring diagram marked on the inside of the terminal cover, fasten the cable with the cable gland and cable anchorage located in a terminal box securely when the cable connector is.

  • The cross-section of the supply cord for this pump shall be at least 3  x  0,75  mm² and the properties of the supply cord shall be at lease ordinary polychloroprene sheathed cords (60245 IEC 57).

  • A damaged cable or connector must be replaced by the corresponding part available from the manufacturer or the manufacturer’s customer service.

Commissioning
Check that there are no leaks at the connections to the sanitary devices connected to the lifting unit.

  • Switch the power supply to the unit.
  • Check that the current consumed is less than or equal to the rated current.

Maintenance

All maintenance work must be carried out by authorized and qualified personnel!
WARNING! Risk of electric shock! Danger from electrical current must be eliminated.
Before carrying out any electrical work, the pump must be de-energized (switched off) and protected against unauthorized restarting. It is recommended to disconnect the plug.

  • No special maintenance work is required during operation.
  • Keep the pump clean.
  • If the pump is deactivated for a long period and there is no risk of freezing, it is best not to drain the pump. In the event of prolonged absence, be sure to cut off the mains’ water supply and protect the installation from freezing.

Faults, causes and remedies

Faults Causes Remedies
The motor does not start Thermal protector If the motor is overheated, it

will not operate. Then,  ait until the motor is cold. (20 – 30 minutes)
Faulty cable connection| Insert the power plug securely
The cable is disconnected or damaged.| Replace the cable
Trouble in the motor| Repair or replace the motor
The power supply voltage is too low.| Check the voltage of the power supply and consult with the local power supplier
Water is not pumped out even though the motor is running| The water level of the well is lower than the standard level| Check the water level of well
Fault in foot valve| Take off the check valve case and then clean the valve, valve seat and valve hole
Air is drawn into the suction hose| Check for leaks in the entire pipe and seal these if any are found
Air is drawn into the pump from the mechanical seal| Replace the mechanical seal
Thermal protector for motor works too often| The power supply voltage is either too low or too high| Check the voltage of the power supply and consult with the local power supplier
The impeller is in contact with another component| Repair the defects.
Short or open circuit of the capacitor| Repair or replace the capacitor.
Water does not come during the first few minutes after being switched on| Air is drawn into the suction pipe| Check for leaks in the entire pipe or replace the defective piping (to prevent air leaking)
The pump starts without water| Piping or pump are leaking water| Repair piping, pump parts and faucets, etc
Water leaks on mechanical seal| Replace the mechanical seal
Trouble in checking the valve| Take off the check valve case and then, clean the valve, valve seat and valve hole
Defacement or transformation of the impeller| Replace the impeller
