Warning In order to minimise operating losses, the cable cross-section may be increased. This is only cost- Single-phase MS 402 submersible motors efficient if the borehole provides the necessary less than 1.1 kW incorporate motor space, and if the operating time of the pump is long.

MMS 10000: 18 Nm MMS 12000: 15 Nm. Connect the motor cable to the drop cable by use of original Grundfos cable termination kits, such as shrink tube type KM or cable termination kit type M0 to M4. If necessary, shorten the motor cable to ensure that it is always covered with pump medium prior to making the cable jointing as described above.
