Depiction of safety instructions All safety instructions of this document are marked with symbols designed on the basis of the SAFE principle. Each of them describes the kind and source of danger, possible consequences and information on how to avert them. DANGER The symbol warns you of a potential accident resulting from ignoring safety or other instructions.
4. Technical Information General description MAGSON type MAS magnetically coupled centrifugal pumps are self-priming centrifugal pumps made of plastic and built in horizontal single-stage monoblock design. A magnetic coupling connects the pump to the motor and transmits the power of the motor to the impeller.
Type codes and materials The type code on the nameplate informs you about the pump materials in contact with fluid. Overview of available materials being in contact with fluid: Component Symbol Material Temperature polypropylene 0 to 70°C ETFE ethylene tetrafluoride ethylene -20 to +100°C All components PTFE...

NOTE Pump housings made of PP are of dark blue colour. Pump housings made of ETFE are of black colour and marked with a yellow ETFE sticker. WARNING Danger of chemical non-resistance of components Make sure that the materials used for making the pump are resistant to the fluid(s) delivered. Chemical non-resistance may result in leakage of fluid.

5. Transport and temporary storage Safety instruction WARNING Danger of getting jammed or bruised during transport of the pump Make sure to use lifting devices suitable to the weight of the pump. Do not remove the lifting device before you have put down the pump safely. Transport 1.
Installation 1. Install the pump in a horizontal position. For any other installation position, please contact the manufacturer. 2. Remove all covers and caps from the flanges before installing the pump. 3. The Pump is self-priming. Therefore it can be placed above liquid level. 4.
6.3.2 Suction line ATTENTION Risk of damaging the pump by cavitation When installing the suction line, make sure to meet the NSPH value given in the æ Appendix page 32 foll.. If the NPSH falls below this value, there will be cavitation resulting in running noise, drumming and vibration of the pump.
6.3.4 Flange or threaded connections MAGSON MAS pumps of types BG4 to BG6 are equipped with slip-on flanges as standard features. The rotating flange allows you to easily connect the pump without considering the angular position of the mating flange. Do not use hard material to seal the flange but appropriate elastomer seals.
3. Screw the threaded adapter to the pump housing using the strap wrench. Make sure that the O-ring fits exactly into the groove of the inner thread. 6.3.5 Electrical connection NOTE Qualified personnel only are allowed to connect the pump to the electrical mains. All electrical connections and the installation of additional protection devices has to be done in accordance with the regulations of your local power supplier and the VDE Association of German Electrical Engineers.
6.3.6 Controlling the direction of rotation ATTENTION Dry-running will damage the pump Do not check the direction of rotation when there is no fluid in the pump! Mind the direction of rotation indicated by an arrow on the pump. Before verifying it after the installation, fill the pump housing and suction line with water or fluid (refer item 2).
Putting into operation Safety precautions WARNING Danger of breaking during operation Regularly check the pump for damages. If there is damage, the pump must not be operated! Replace wearing parts at regular intervals. Do not operate the pump to other than the intended purpose. WARNING Risk of electrical hazards when touching parts carrying voltage by fault Fasten all loose connections.
Putting into operation 1. Switch on the motor. 2. Pump starts to suck the air from suction pipe. This may take between 5 – 10 minutes depending size and length of suction pipe As soon as the suction pipe is filled completely with fluid the normal pump operation starts.
8. Shut-down procedure 1. Switch off the motor. 2. Close the shut-off valves. 3. When some fluid remains within the pump, secure the shut-off valves to prevent an accidental opening. 4. In case of crystallizing fluids, heat both the pump and the piping. Protect freezing fluids against frost.
9. Service and maintenance Safety precautions WARNING Risk of electrical hazards when touching parts carrying voltage by fault Only qualified and authorized personnel are allowed to work on motors at a standstill. The motors have to be disconnected and secured against any accidental start. Strictly follow the instructions of the motor manufacturer.
Preventive maintenance 9.3.1 Overall pump Check the pump at regular intervals for 1. vibrations or unusual noise, 2. a minimum volume flow of at least 5% of the maximum volume flow, 3. changes in normal operating conditions, overheating or dry-running, 4.
NOTE All spare parts are available at Sondermann Pumpen + Filter GmbH & Co. KG. See the Appendix for the spare parts lists. When delivering dirty, muddy or crystallizing fluids, you should check and clean the pump at shorter intervals.
Dismantling and replacing the motor The back pull-out design allows you to replace the entire drive unit without dismounting the pump. So neither the pump nor the piping has to be drained. Just loosen the 4 motor screws and pull the motor off the pump.
Dismantling the pump head Dismantling pump head – explosion drawing 4. Pull off the complete casing (1) 7. Take rear casing (4) off the bracket 5. Pull off the impeller magnet (2) 6. Remove casing O-Ring (3) Caution: Strong magnetic forces and risk of bruises! Disassembling the pump head Press out the sleeve bearing...
Assembling the pump To reassemble the dismantled pump, proceed as follows: Place the driving magnet on the motor shaft and align it. Valid for motor with following power: 0,37; 0,55; 0,75; 1,1; 3,0; 4,0; 5,5 kW Valid for motor with following power: 1,5;...
