PSR1 500 Safety Information Safety Information Signal Words Used in this Manual This manual contains DANGER, WARNING, CAUTION, NOTICE, and NOTE signal words which must be followed to reduce the possibility of personal injury, damage to the equipment, or improper service.
PSR1 500 Machine Description and Intended Use This machine is a submersible water pump. The Wacker Neuson Submersible Pump consists of an electric motor, an impeller, a strainer, and a metal casing with ports for water suction and discharge. Power is supplied to the pump through a corded plug or a hard-wired connection, depending on the installation.
Safety-toed footwear Replacement parts When replacement parts are required for this machine, use only Wacker Neuson replacement parts or those parts equivalent to the original in all types of specifications, such as physical dimensions, type, strength, and material. Operating and Electrical Safety To reduce risk of electric shock, connect only to a properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle.
• When replacement parts are required for this machine, use only Wacker Neuson replacement parts or those parts equivalent to the original in all types of specifications, such as physical dimensions, type, strength, and material.
PSR1 500 Safety Information Labels A nameplate listing the model number, item number, revi- Wacker Neuson Corporation sion number, and serial number is attached to each unit. Menomonee Falls, WI 53051 USA Please record the information found on this nameplate so it Model Item No.
Lifting and Transporting PSR1 500 Lifting and Transporting Do not under any circumstances install or move the pump by suspending it from the cable assembly. The cable may be damaged, causing electrical leakage, shock, or fire. WARNING When installing the pump, pay close attention to its center of gravity and weight.
(32–104°F) which can lead to failure, electrical leakage or shock. Do not use in the vicinity of explosive or flammable materials. Use only in fully assembled state. Note: Consult your local dealer or Wacker Neuson representative before using with any liquids other than those indicated in this manual. 3.3.1 Install the pump in a location with sufficient water level, where water collects readily.
3.3.5 If used in a permanent installation, where the pump is not readily accessible after installation, please contact Wacker Neuson for a duplicate nameplate to be installed at the wellhead or on the control box so that it will be readily visible.
Installation PSR1 500 Checks to Make Before Installation • When a grounded plug is used: Use the megohmmeter to measure the insulation resistance between the cable assembly prongs and ground. • When connection leads are used: With the megohmmeter, measure the insulation resistance between each core lead and the ground lead.
PSR1 500 Installation Connecting the Power Supply Before connecting leads to the terminal strip, make certain the power supply is turned off (circuit breaker, etc.), to avoid electrical shock, shorting, or unexpected starting of the pump, leading to injury. WARNING Before inserting the power supply plug, make certain the power supply is turned off (circuit breaker, etc.), to avoid electrical shock, shorting,...
Installation PSR1 500 Cable Assembly If it is necessary to extend the cable assembly, use a core size equal to or larger than the original. This is necessary not only to avoid a performance drop, but to prevent cable overheating which can result in CAUTION fire, electrical leakage or electrical shock.
PSR1 500 Operation Operation Before Starting 4.1.1 Make sure once again that the product is of the correct voltage and frequency rating. NOTICE: Using the product at other than rated voltage and frequency will not only lower its performance but may damage the product.
Page 20
Operation PSR1 500 • Using an AC voltmeter (tester), measure voltage at the terminals. Supply voltage tolerance: within ±5% of rated voltage. COUNTERMEASURE: If the supply voltage is outside the tolerance, possible causes are the power supply capacity or an inadequate extension cable.
PSR1 500 Operation Operating Water Level Do not operate the pump below the C.W.L. (Continuous running Water Level) indicated below. Failure to observe this condition may result in damage to the pump, current leakage or electrical shock. CAUTION 1 mm (0.04")

Note: Touch-up paint is not supplied. Note that some kinds of damage or looseness may require that the unit be disassembled for repairs. Please consult your nearest dealer or Wacker Neuson representative. Storage When the pump is out of use for an extended period, wash it and dry it thoroughly, then store it indoors.

Maintenance PSR1 500 Note: Worn lubricant and other waste products should be disposed of by a qualified agent, in accord with applicable laws. The oil plug gasket should be replaced each time the lubricant is inspected or changed. wc_gr004660 Ref.
The procedure for disassembly and reassembly is shown here to the extent necessary for impeller replacement. A specialized environment and facilities are necessary for work on the mechanical seal and the motor parts. Contact your nearest dealer or Wacker Neuson representative in the event such repairs are necessary. wc_tx002008gb.fm...
Maintenance PSR1 500 Disassembly Note: Before disassembling, be sure to drain the oil. 5.5.1 Removing the suction cover and the pump casing: Remove the hex bolts (3) and the sealing washers (4) from under the bottom plate (5) and remove the bottom plate from the pump unit.
PSR1 500 Maintenance wc_gr004643 Reassembly The reassembly procedure is in the reverse sequence of disassembly. 5.6.1 Remove sand and other debris from the impeller (5), pump casing (6) and suction cover (3) before reassembly. 5.6.2 Install the V-ring (8) on the outside of the shaft sleeve (7). During the installation, be careful not to apply oil to the area in which the V-ring contacts the shaft sleeve.
Before ordering repairs, carefully read through this manual, then repeat the inspection. If the problem remains, contact your nearest dealer or Wacker Neuson representative. ALWAYS turn off the power before inspecting the pump. Failure to observe this precaution can result in serious accident.
