6.5.6.2 Soft starter
At full load, set the motor protection switch to the
rated current (see rating plate). At partial load, it is re-
commended to set the motor protection switch 5 %
above the current measured at the duty point. The fol-
lowing must also be observed:
▪ Power consumption must always be below the rated
current.
▪ Complete starting and stopping within 30 s.
▪ To avoid power dissipation, bypass the electronic
starter (soft start) once normal operation is reached.

Direction of rotation check
A qualified electrician checks the rotating field at the
mains connection with a rotating field-test device. For
the correct direction of rotation, a clockwise rotating
field must be available at the mains connection. The
pump is not approved for operation with a counter-
clockwise rotating field! CAUTION! If the direction of
rotation is checked with a test run, comply with the
ambient and operating conditions!
Incorrect direction of rotation
If the direction of rotation is incorrect, change the con-
nection as follows:
U2/V2) for star-delta activation motors.
Before switching on
Check the following prior to activation:
and in accordance with the locally applicable regula-
tions:
– Has the pump been earthed?
– Layout of power supply cable tested?
– Electrical connection made properly?
– Mechanical components attached correctly?
– Float switches can move freely?
– Switching level tested (pump on, pump off, minimum
water level)?
– Additional dry-running protection installed?
– Min./max. temperature of the fluid tested?
– Max. immersion depth tested?
– Operating mode defined depending on the minimum
water level?
– Maximum switching frequency adhered to?
– Pipe system on the pressure side free of deposits?
– Inlet or pump sump cleaned or free of deposits?
– All gate valves open?
– Minimum water level defined and monitored?
The hydraulics housing must be filled completely
with the fluid and there must be no air cushions in
the hydraulics. NOTICE! Provide suitable venting
devices if there is a risk of air cushions being
formed in the system!
