evak Hippo DN65 E-Series Submersible Sewage Pump
Introduction
Check the following points upon receipt of your pump:
- Is the pump exactly what you ordered? Check nameplate. It is especially important that you check whether the pump is to be used with 50 or 60 Hz.
- Has any damage occurred during shipment? Are any bolts or nuts loose?
- Have all necessary accessories been supplied? (For a list of standard accessories see Construction.) We recommend that you keep a spare pump on hand in case of emergencies.
Keep this instruction manual in a place for future reference.
Specifications
Check the nameplate for your pump’s head, discharge volume, speed (R.P.M), motor voltage and current.
Other specifications are noted in the chart below.

Installation
Check the follo wing before beginning installation.
Insulation resistance measurement:
With the motor and cable (excluding the power supply cable) immersed in water,
use a Megger to measure the insulation resistance between ground and each
phase of the motor, and again between each phase of the motor. The Megger
should indicate an insulation resistance of not less than 20mega ohms. While
making the measurement, keep the power supply ca-ble off the ground.
We recommend that an auxiliary pump be kept on hand in case of emergency.
Installation
-
WARNING : Under no circumstances should cable be pulled while the pump is being transported or installed.
Attach a chain or rope to the grip and install the pump. -
This pump must not be installed on its side or operated a dry condition. Ensure that it is installed upright on a secure base.
-
Install the pump at a location in the tank where there is the least turbulence.
-
If there is a flow of liquid inside the tank, support the piping where appropriate.
-
Install piping so that air will not be entrapped. If piping must be installed in such a way that air pockets are unavoidable, install an air release valve wherever such air pockets are most likely to develop.
-
Do not permit end of discharge piping to be submerged, as backflow will result when the pump is shut down.
-
.! WARNING : Non-automatic pumps do not have an automatic operating system. Do not operate the pump for a long time with the water level near the lowest water level(H1) as shown in Fig.1, as the automatic cut-off switch incorporated inside the motor will be activated.
-
To avoid dry operation, install an automatic operating system so that this will not happen, as shown in Fig.2 and maintain a safe operating water level.
Electrical wiring
-
Wiring
A) Wire as indicated for the appropriate start system as shown in Fig-3 & 4 for single phase version and Fig-5 for three phase.
B) Loose connections will stop the pump. Make sure all electrical connections secure.
C) For three phase motors – Operate the pump for a short time (1 or 2 seconds) to verify the rotation of direction of the impeller, if its recoil is in counterclockwise direction, the direction of its rotation is correct. If not please switch two of the three power cords to correct the rotation of direction of the impeller.
D) Make sure to check the pump’s direction of rotation with the pump exposed to the atmosphere. Operating the pump with reversed rota-tion while in submerged condition under water will most likely to damage the pump, which may lead to leakage and electrical shock. -
Cable
WARNING : Never let the end of the cable contact water.
A) If the cable is extended, do not immerse the splice in water.
B) Do not pull the cable.
C) Install the cable so that it will not overheat. Overheating is caused by coiling the cable and exposing it to direct sunlight. -
Grounding
To ground the green (yellow/green) wire. Under no circumstances should the green (yellow/green) wire be connected to the power sup-ply directly.
4. WARNING : Use short circuit breakers to prevent danger of electrical shock.
5. WARNING : Never start the pump while it is suspended, as the pump may jerk and cause serious accident involving injury.
Operation
-
Before starting the pump
a. After completing installation, measure the insulation resistance again as described in Installation.
b. Check water level.
If the pump is operated continuously for an extended period of time in a dry condition or at the lowest water level, the motor protector will be activated. Constant repetition of this action will shorten pump service life. Do not start the pump again in such a situation until after the motor has completely cooled. -
Test operation….
Non-automatic pump Automatic pump
a. Turn the operating switch on and off a couple of times to check for normal pump start.
Floating switch must be raised for the pump to start.
b. Next, check direction of rotation. If discharge volume is low or unusual sounds are heard when the pump is op-erating, rotation has been reversed. When this happens, reverse two of the wires.
Maintenance
Check pressure, output, voltage, current and other specifications. Unusual readings may indicate. Refer to Troubleshooting and correct as soon as possible.
Daily inspections
Check current and ammeter fluctuation daily. If ammeter fluctuation is great,
even though within the limits of pump rating, foreign matter may be clogging
the pump. If the quantity of liquid discharged falls suddenly, foreign matter
may be blocking the suction inlet.
Regular inspections
Monthly inspections
Measure the insulation resistance. The value should be more than 1M ohm. If
resistance starts to fall rapidly even with an initial indication of over 1M
ohm, this nay be an indication of trouble and repair work is required.
Annual inspections
To prolong the service life of the mechanical seal by replacing the oil in the
mechanical seal chamber once a year. Wa-ter mixed the oil or cloudy textures
are indications of a defective mechanical seal requiring replacement. When
replac-ing the oil, lay the pump on its side with filler plug on top. Inject
suitable amount turbine oil No.32 (ISO VG-32) .
Inspections at 3-5year intervals
Conduct an overhaul of the pump. These intervals will preclude the possibility
of future trouble.
Parts that will need to be replaced
Replace the appropriate part when the following conditions are apparent.

Disassembly and Assembly
- Disassembly-
When disassembling pump, have a piece of cardboard or wooden board ready to place the different parts on as you work. Do not pile parts on top of each other. They should be laid out neatly in rows. The “O” ring and gasket cannot be used again once they are removed. Have replacement parts ready. Disassemble in the following order, referring to the sectional view.
Be sure to cut off power source before disassembly.
- Remove pump casing bolts, raise the motor section and remove pump
- Remove shaft head bolt and
- Remove oil filler plug and drain lubricating
- Remove intermediate casing bolts and oil
(Remember that any lubricating oil remaining in the mechanical seal chamber will flow out.)
- Carefully remove mechanical seal, beware of not to scratch sliding surface of motor
- Assembly-
Re-assemble in reverse order of disassembly.
Be careful of the following points.
- During re-assembly, rotate the impeller by hand and check for smooth If rotation is not smooth, perform steps-(3) through -(5) again.
- Upon completion of re-assembly step -(1) rotate the impeller by hand from the suction inlet and check that it rotates smoothly without touching the suction cover before operating the
Please order “O” rings, packing, shaft seals and other parts from your dealer.
