Operating Instructions
- Your submersible pump is designated for the circulation of water with maximum temperature of 35°C.
- This pump may not be used for other fluids, especially motor fuels, cleaning fluids, and other chemical products!
Installation
The submersible motor pump is installed as follows:
• In a stationary position with fixed pipeline.
• In a stationary position with a flexible hose pipe.
PLEASE NOTE: You should never install the pump by suspending it
unsupported from its delivery pipe or power cable. The submersible motor pump
must be suspended from the specially provided handle or be placed on the
bottom of the shaft. To guarantee that the pump works properly, the bottom of
the shaft must be kept free of sludge and dirt of all kinds.
If the level of water sinks too far, any sludge in the shaft will dry out
quickly to stop the pump from starting up. It is necessary, therefore, to
check the submersible motor pump regularly (by carrying out start up tests).
The floater is adjusted in a way that the pump can immediately be started.
NOTE: The pump shaft should have minimum dimensions of 40x40x50cm, so that the floating switch can move freely.
Mains Supply
Your new submersible pump is equipped with a shockproof plug according to
regulations. The pump is designed to be connected to a 230V~, 50Hz safety
socket.
Make sure that the socket is sufficiently secured (min.6Amp.) and is in
excellent condition. Introduce the plug into the socket and the pump is ready
to go.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If the mains cable or plug suffers any damage from
external action, repairs to the cable are prohibited.
NOTE: This work may only be performed by a qualified electrician or
customer service.
Areas of Use
This pump is used primarily as cellar pump. When installed in a shaft, this
pump provides protection from flooding.
They are also used wherever water has to be moved from one place to another,
e.g. in the home, agriculture, horticulture, plumbing and many other
applications.
Setting to Work
After having read these instructions carefully, you can set your pump to work, reconsidering the following item:
- Check if the pump rests on the ground of the shaft.
- Check if pressure cord has been attached properly.
- Check if electrical connection is 230V~, 50Hz.
- Check if socket is in good condition.
- Make sure that the water and humidity can never come to the mains supply.
- Avoid pump running dry.
Maintenance Guidelines
The submersible pump is an approved, maintenance free high quality product,
which is subject to severe final controls.
We recommend, regular inspection and maintenance to ensure long equipment life
and uninterrupted operation.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
- Remove the mains plug before all maintenance work.
- In the event that the pump is often transported in the course of operation, it should be cleaned out with clear water after every use.
- In case of stationary installation, the function of the loading switch should be checked every 3 months.
- All fibrous particles which may have built-up inside the pump housing should be removed with a water jet.
- Every 3 months the shaft ground should be cleaned from mud.
- Remove deposits on the floater with clear water.
Setting the ON/OFF Switching Point
Automatic Operation
-
The ON/OFF switching point can be infinitely adjustment facility. For this purpose you must first slacken the screw. The switching differential can be infinitely adjusted by extending or shortening the floating cable.
Before you put the pump into operation, please check the following: -
The float switch must be installed so that the level of the ON operating point and the level of the OFF operating point can be reached easily and with little force. To check this, place the pump in a vessel filled with water, raise the float switch carefully by hand and then lower it again. As you do so, note whether the pump switched on and off.
-
Make sure that the distance between the float switch head and the latching holder is not too small. Proper operation is not guaranteed if the gap is too small.
When you set the float switch, make sure that it does not touch the base before the pump switches off.
CAUTION: Risk of dry-running.
