2. Safety Warnings

2.1. General Instructions

Signs used to mark instructions in this manual
Safety instructions in these operating instructions, which,
if not observed, could cause a danger for persons are
marked with the general symbol in accordance with DIN
4844-W 9.
Warnings against electrical voltage are marked with the
safety symbol in accordance with DIN 4844-W 8.

2.2. General Safety Precautions

General regulations and guidelines not mentioned in the
safety warnings retain their validity.
These operating instructions contain basic instructions,
which have to be adhered to during installation, operation
and maintenance. These operating instructions must be read
from mechanic and the operator before installation and op-
eration of the pump and have to be kept available at the
operating place of the machine/unit at all times. Persons who
are not familiar with the operating instructions shall not use
this product.
Children and adolescents under age 16 shall not use the
pump and must keep away from the machine/unit
while it is operational.
If you have to work with welding tools or electric tools,
make sure that there is no explosion hazard.
Immediately after repair or maintenance work, all safety
and protection equipment must be reinstalled and placed in
function again.
The operator of the pump is responsible for third parties
within the work area.
Persons are not permitted to stay in the pumping me-
dium during operation of the pump.
All other rules and regulations and local codes covering
health and safety must be observed. In accordance with
product liability law, we point out that we shall not be liable
for damages caused by the pump due to non-observance of
the instructions and guidelines set forth in the operating
instructions. The same product liability are valid for accesso-
ries.
3. Applications and Technical Description

3.1. Applications

Waste water submersible pumps must be fully submerged in
the pumped medium. TCV pumps are designed for pumping
dirty water like rain water or ground water with solid sizes:
Pump type
TCV 407
The pumps are used for pumping water from basements,
cellars or surface water from sumps.
The pumps must not be used for pumping of liquids contain-
ing great quantities of abrasive solids, like sand or stones.
Before the pumping of chemically aggressive liquids, the
resistance of the pump materials must be checked.
If the pump is used for cleaning or maintenance of
swimming pools, make sure that no persons stay in the
swimming pool during operation of the pump and that the
pump is self-assured by a 30 mA earth leakage circuit
breaker.
The voltage required in the technical data sheet
must correspond to the existing line voltage.

4. Warranty

Our warranty only covers pumps which are installed and
operated in accordance with these installation and operation
instructions and accepted codes of good practice and being
used for the applications mentioned in these instructions.

5. Transport and Storage

Never use the cable or the discharge hose/pipe to lift,
lower, transport or attach the pump. Always use the handle
or a rope or a chain attached to the handle.
The pump may be transported and stored in vertical or
horizontal position. Make sure that it cannot roll or fall over.
For longer periods of storage, the pump should be protected
against moisture, frost or heat.

6. Electrical Connection

Before operation, an expert check must secure that the
required electrical protection measures exist. The connection
to ground, earthing, isolating transformer, fault current
breaker or fault voltags circuit must correspond to the guide-
lines set forth by the responsible power plant.
The voltage required in the technical data sheet
must correspond to the existing line voltage.
Submersible pumps used outside of buildings must
have a cable with a minimum length of 10m.
Make sure that the electrical pin-and-socket connections
are installed flood- and moisture-safe. Before starting opera-
tion check the cable and the plug against damages.
The end of the pump power supply cable must not be
submerged in order to prevent water from penetrating
through the cable into the motor.
The normal separate motor starter/control box of stan-
dard as well as of explosion proof pumps must not be in-
stalled in explosive enviroments.

7. Installation

7.1. Submerged Base Stand Installation

The pump may be installed with a flexible discharge hose or
a rigid pipe, non-return valve and isolating valve. If a flexible
hose is used, make sure that the hose has the same diame-
ter like the pump discharge and does not buckle.
For an optimally performance the discharge pipe should
have a minimum diameter of 1 ¼". Gate valves and non-
return-valves have to be installed in accordance to the local
rules and regulations.
Fix a rope or a chain to the pump handle and lower the pump
into the liquid. If the pump is installed on muddy ground,
support it on bricks to prevent it from sinking in.
