PENTAIR Simer 6 Drainage Pump Flat Suction

Specifications:

• Model: Simer 6
• Model Variants: Simer 6S
• Intended Use: Submersible pump for pumping sewage, rainwater,
  groundwater, seepage water, or drainage water

Product Description:
The Simer 6 is a submersible pump available with or without level control (Simer 6S). It is designed for continuous operation in submerged conditions

Product Safety:
It is important to follow all safety instructions provided in the manual. The pump should not be operated in explosive environments. Disconnect the power plug before any maintenance or installation work. Take precautions against freezing to prevent damage to the pump.

Installation:

1. Do not lift the submersible pump by the power cable. Use a rope or chain for lowering into position.
2. Ensure proper grounding and electrical connections.
3. Place the pump in a suitable location for optimal performance.

Operation :

• Ensure the pump is not exposed to freezing conditions. The built-in thermal protector will shut off the pump if temperatures rise excessively to prevent damage.
• Use the pump for tasks such as emptying water from core drilling or concrete cutting, and switch between manual and automatic operation modes as needed.

Maintenance:
If the pump fails to operate, check for common issues like clogged filter or hose blockages. Replace worn components like the impeller when necessary.

FAQ:

• Q: What should I do if the pump does not start?
  A: Check for clogged filters or hoses, ensure proper power supply, and inspect the impeller for wear. Refer to the maintenance section for detailed troubleshooting steps.

• Q: Can the pump be used in freezing conditions?
  A: The submersible pump should not be allowed to freeze. Remove it from water and drain water if there is a risk of freezing. The built-in thermal protector helps prevent damage due to freezing  temperatures.

SAFETY
The safety instructions in this instruction manual are marked with symbols and must be strictly followed! Failure to follow these instructions can be dangerous!

Qualification of staff

• This appliance can be used by children aged 8 years or over and by persons with limited physical, sensory or intellectual capabilities, or with limited experience and knowledge, pro-vided that they are supervised or have been instructed in the safe use of the appliance and are aware of the dangers involved. Children must NOT be allowed to play with the  appliance. Cleaning and user maintenance must NOT be carried out by children unless they are supervised.
• If this appliance is fitted with a mains power cable that does not have a plug or other device to switch off the mains power, then the customer must install a mains disconnection device in the permanent electrical installation in accordance with the installation regulations. This disconnection device must completely disconnect the appliance from the power supply. It could take the form of a mains switch of over-voltage category III. For safety reasons, if the mains power cable of this appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or his customer service department, or by a similarly qualified person.

Personnel must have suitable qualification for the type of work. The area of responsibility, competence and monitoring of personnel must be precisely regulated by the operating company. If personnel do not have the necessary skills, they must be instructed and trained accordingly.
Responsibility of the operating company
Installation and operation of the product must be carried out according to current technical codes of practice.

• Note!
  In EU countries and the countries of destination, the standards, regulations, rules and directives that apply in that country must be implemented.

Like any other electrical device, this product can fail due to the absence of mains power or due to a technical fault. If damage or consequential damage occur due to failure of the device, take the following precautions at your discretion:

• Installation of a water level-dependent alarm, that is either dependent or independent of the mains power supply, so that the “high water” alarm can be perceived before damage occurs.
• Check the collecting tank/chamber used to ensure it is leak-tight up to the upper edge before putting the product into operation.
• Installation of backflow protection devices for drainage objects where damage can occur due to waste-water leakage after product failure.
• Installation of an additional product that can compensate for the failure of the product.
• Installation of an emergency power generator.

Unauthorised alterations, spare parts and accessories

• Alterations or modifications to the product are permissible only with the written approval of the manufacturer.

Ambient conditions

Transport/storage

• The submersible pump must be moved or lifted only by its carry handle.
•  When stored in dry conditions, the submersible pump is frost-resistant down to -20 °C.

Never use the power supply cable to move or lift the submersible pump!
Use the rope or chain to lower the device into place.

• Never use the power supply cable to move or lift the submersible pump!
• Use the rope or chain to lower the device into place.

EMC
When our standard submersible pumps and accessories are installed as specified and used as intended, the products meet the protective requirements of the EMC Directive 2014/30/EC, and are suitable for domestic and commercial use when connected to the public power supply network. If connected to an industrial power supply network within an industrial facility, where the power supply is provided by an in-house high-voltage transformer, there may be insufficient immunity to interference.

INSTALLATION

OPERATION

Connecting the pump permanently to the building’s drainage system or using it to protect against back- flow (EN 12056-4) is not permitted.

• The submersible pump is not suitable for pump-ing aggressive media!
• The submersible pump must not be operated unless the foot strainer is fitted!
• The submersible pump must not be operated unless it is in an upright position!

Mains power connection
Connect the submersible pump only to a socket that has been properly installed in accordance with the regulations and is fitted with at least a 10 A (delay) fuse and a residual-current circuit breaker(≤30 mA).

• Warning!
• Once the submersible pump has cooled down, it will switch on again automatically! Danger of injury!
  Never touch or hold the submersible pump during its cooling down phase.

Mobile use
The submersible pump pumps water from a minimum depth of 5 mm. Draining roof areas, patios, puddles on outdoor surfaces

• Emptying flooded cellars, swimming pools, garden ponds, excavation pits
• Extracting
  wastewater from borehole drilling or concrete cutting operations

Level control Can be switched between manual and automatic operation

• Manual operation
  The pump is switched on, regardless of the water level.

• Automatic operation
  The submersible pump is switched on and off depending on the water level.

Automatic operation with follow-up time

• The end of the pumping process is determined by a dynamic follow-up time.
• This varies between 3 and 90 seconds depending on the inflow rate.
• If the main power plug is disconnected, the follow-up time will be reset.

SERVICING/MAINTENANCE

Note!
Water that is rich in iron or lime can damage the seals and thus also the pump’s motor over time.

• Check the power supply cable for mechanical and chemical dam-age. Damaged cables must be replaced.
• Clean the submersible pump at regular intervals, as the hardness of the water dictates.
• Clean the pump strainer and electrodes (Simer 6S) at regular intervals

FAULTS

occurring, have this checked by an electrician.

• The winding thermostat of the pump has been triggered
