4. Delivery and handling 5. Identification The pump may be transported and stored in a vertical or 5.1 Nameplate horizontal position. Make sure that it cannot roll or fall over. The nameplate states the operating data and approvals applying to the pump. The nameplate is fitted to the side of the stator 4.1 Transportation housing close to the cable entry.
5.2 Type key The pump can be identified by means of the type designation stated on the pump nameplate. See section Nameplate. Code Example Pump type Grundfos sewage/wastewater pumps Impeller type ® S-tube impeller SuperVortex (free-flow) impeller Free spherical passage...
6. Approvals The SL1 and SLV pumps have been approved by CSA and FM, and the explosion-proof versions hold an FM type examination certificate no.: 3035318. Approval standards These pumps are approved by CSA and FM according to UL778, C22.2 no 108 and FM 3600, FM 3615 and FM 3650.
The maximum current from the control unit must be limited to 350 mA. Installation types The SL1 and SLV pumps are designed for two installation types: • submerged installation on auto-coupling •...
10. Adjust the length of the motor cable by coiling it up on a relief 8.1 Submerged installation on auto-coupling fitting to ensure that the cable is not damaged during operation. Fasten the relief fitting to a suitable hook at the top of the tank.
Make sure that all protective equipment has been connected correctly. Float switches used in potentially explosive environments must be approved for this application. They must be connected to the Grundfos DC, DCD pump controller via a intrinsically safe barrier to ensure a safe circuit.

Pumps without sensor must be connected to this controller type: • a Grundfos DC, DCD pump controller. Pumps with sensor must be connected to a Grundfos IO 113 and the following controller type: • a Grundfos DC, DCD pump controller.
9.1 Wiring diagrams The pumps are supplied via either a 7-wire cable or a 10-wire cable. See fig. for wiring diagrams for 7-wire cable connection or figs 7, for wiring diagrams for 10-wire cable connection. For further information, see the installation and operating instructions for the selected pump controller.

SL voltage concept To standardize and help minimize part numbers and pump versions of the SL product portfolio, Grundfos created the 61J voltage variant. 61J is a tri-voltage (208 V / 230 V / 460 V), three phase, 60 Hz DOL (Direct-On-Line) connected motor.
9.2 Pump controllers 9.4 WIO sensor (water-in-oil sensor) SL1 and SLV pumps can be connected to Grundfos Dedicated The WIO sensor measures the water content in the oil and Controls for level control. Dedicated Controls are available as converts the value into an analogue current signal. The two...
9.6 IO 113 9.7 Frequency converter operation IO 113 provides an interface between a Grundfos wastewater All SL1/SLV pump types are designed for frequency converter pump equipped with sensors and the pump controller(s). operation to keep the energy consumption at a minimum.
10. Start-up 10.2 Operating modes The pumps are designed for intermittent operation (S3). Warning When completely submerged, the pumps can also operate Before starting work on the pump, make sure that the continuously (S1). fuses have been removed or the mains switch has S3, intermittent operation: been switched off.
However, this does not apply to the hydraulic components, such as pump housing, impeller, etc. Warning The cable must only be replaced by Grundfos or a service workshop authorized by Grundfos. Before carrying out maintenance and service, it must be ensured that the pump has been thoroughly flushed with clean water.
This work must be carried out by Oil filling/venting Grundfos or a service workshop authorized by Grundfos. Warning Defective bearings may reduce the explosion protection.
