Pump cleaning function

Operating principle
The pump cleaning function provides support with maintaining pump systems by preventing an
imminent blockage or, up to a point, also clearing an existing blockage. Pump cleaning is only
possible if the pump is switched on, if one or both control commands "Motor CW" or "Motor CCW"
is present, and if there is no internal trip command (e.g. disconnection due to motor overload
trip) or the internal trip command is ignored by the "Emergency start" (Page 189) function.
Cancellation of the control command or occurrence of an internal trip command while
emergency start is inactive causes the pump cleaning process to be aborted.
You will find further information on the pump cleaning function in the Internet under the FAQs
(https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/109761112).
Application
• Clearance of blockages and dirt from water pipes, filters, and pump blades
