Pumped Fluids; Sound Pressure; General Description; Use - Homa Solestar Original Instruction Manual

Caution!
Never operate the machine if the safety and monitor-
ing devices have been removed or damage, or if they
do not work.

2.8. Pumped fluids

Each pumped fluid differs in regard to composition, cor-
rosiveness, abrasiveness, TS content and many other
aspects. Generally, our products can be used for many
applications. For more precise details, see chapter 3, the
machine data sheet and the order confirmation. It should
be remembered that if the density, viscosity or the gener-
al composition change, this can also alter many parame-
ters of the product.
Different materials and impeller shapes are required for
different pumped fluids. The more exact your specifica-
tions on your order, the more exactly we can modify our
product to meet your requirements. If the area of applica-
tion and/or the pumped fluid change, we will be happy to
offer supportive advice.
When switching the product into another pumped fluid,
observe the following points:
• Products which have been operated in sewage or
waste water must be thoroughly cleaned with pure
water or drinking water before use.
• Products which have pumped fluids which are haz-
ardous to health must always be decontaminated
before changing to a new fluid. Also clarify whether
the product may be used in a different pumped fluid.
• With products which have been operated with a lu-
bricant or cooling fluid (such as oil), this can escape
into the pumped fluid if the mechanical shaft seal is
defective.
Danger - explosive fluids!
It is absolutely prohibited to pump explosive liquids
(e.g. gasoline, kerosene, etc.). The products are not
designed for these liquids!

2.9. Sound Pressure

Depending on the size and power (kW), the pump has
a sound pressure of about 40dB (A) to 70dB (A) during
operation. However, the actual sound pressure depends
on several factors. These are, for example, the type of
installation and set-up, mounting of accessories, piping,
operating point, immersion depth, and much more.

3. General description

3.1. Use

The Solestar lifting plant is a plug and play pumping plant
for conveying the brine that emerges when water soft-
ening plants are being rinshed. This brine is caught in a
collecting tank and is passed into the sewerage system
when it reaches a certain level.
The conveyed medium, consisting of cold water and
brine, must not exceed a salt content of 27% and a tem-
perature of 40°C.

3.2. Types of use

The brine lifting plant is designed for the S3 (30%)
operating mode, periodic intermittent duty.

3.3. Construction

The unit consists of the standard motor, an appropriate
blade wheel and the collecting tank. All important compo-
nents are generously dimensioned.
