  • Page 14 INSTRUCTION MANUAL P.13 3.6.3 Other Checks Requiring Particular Attention (1) Minimum operating water level Be sure that the pump stop level is not lower than the minimum operating water level specified in the technical document. If the stop level is lower, a vortex flow can occur causing the pump to intake air, resulting in noise and vibration.
  • Page 15 INSTRUCTION MANUAL P.14 3.7 Pump Installation (Fig. 12) WARNING : WHEN LIFTING THE PUMP, USE APPROPRIATE CRANE (OR HOIST) AND LIFT SYSTEM. CHECK POSITION AND TIGHTNESS OF LIFT SYSTEM SO THAT WEIGHT OF THE PUMP IS NOT UNBALANCED. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS PRECAUTION CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS ACCIDENTES.
  • Page 16 INSTRUCTION MANUAL P.15 3.8 Cable Installation (Fig. 13) When the pump has been installed, pull out the power cable, protective device cable, water level switch cable, etc. from the cable lead-out elbow on the floor and connect them to the control panel. FLOOR PLATE CABLE LEAD-OUT ELBOW Fig.
  • Page 17 INSTRUCTION MANUAL P.16 4. Electric Wiring 4.1 Power Cable Connection WARNING CHECK THAT THE POWER IS LOCKED OFF AND DISCONNECTED BEFORE WORKING ON PUMP. The electric wiring for a submersible motor is no different from that of an ordinary motor, except that the direction of rotation cannot be easily verified. Wiring to wrong terminals results in a reversed motor, and to prevent this and to achieve best results, the following wiring procedure is recommended.

  • Page 23 INSTRUCTION MANUAL P.22 5.3 Cautions of Operation Closed valve operation of the pump is no problem if operating is not prolonged. Otherwise, the pump not only becomes overheated but also is caused to rattle and vibrate by backward flow of the liquid at the suction port. Avoid closed valve operation as much as circumstances allow.
  • Page 24 INSTRUCTION MANUAL P.23 6. Maintenance and Overhaul While the life of the pump depends largely on the ambient conditions, daily servicing and inspection helps extend service life considerably. To achieve that, carry out the maintenance as follows : 6.1 Daily Checks Check the following items at least once a week.
  • Page 25 INSTRUCTION MANUAL P.24 WARNING : BEFORE PULLING THE PUMP, DISCONNECT ALL CABLES AND ENSURE THAT THE PUMP IS ISOLATED FROM THE POWER SUPPLY.

  • Page 26 INSTRUCTION MANUAL P.25 (c) If a very small quantity of oil leaks out, there is no practical problem. If water or oil containing water, in excess of 1 liter (after one year of use), leaks out the mechanical seal must be replaced. (d) If much water is emitted, the mechanical seal or others components may be damaged, and an overhaul is necessary.
  • Page 27 INSTRUCTION MANUAL P.26 (d) Replug the “oil port” as carefully as the other ports. (e) To replace either upper or lower mechanical seal, the pump must be disassembled. As the mechanical seal is a cartridge type, removing the retaining ring permits seal removal as a complete assembly. After the mechanical seal has been replaced with a new one, reassemble the pump and supply the specified oil through the “oil port”...
