Digital Input; Data Communication; Maintenance; Pumps - Grundfos Hydro Multi-E Series Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

19. Digital input

Hydro Multi-E has a digital input for external faults. The input has
been factory-set to external faults and is active in closed
condition.

If the digital input is active for more than 10 seconds (s), Hydro
Multi-E stops due to an external fault.
The digital input is used for the dry-running protection.

20. Data communication

It is possible to connect the system to an external network. The
connection can be made via a GENIbus-based network or a
network based on another fieldbus protocol.
The system can communicate via CIM modules. This enables the
system to communicate with different types of network solutions.
A CIM module is an add-on communication interface module. The
CIM module enables data transmission between the pump and an
external system, for example a BMS or SCADA system.
For further information on CIM modules, see Grundfos Product
Center at www.grundfos.com, or contact Grundfos.

21.1 Pumps

Pump bearings and shaft seals are maintenance-free.
If CRE or CRIE pumps are to be drained after a long period of
inactivity, remove one of the coupling guards to inject a few drops
of silicone oil on the shaft between the pump head and the
coupling. This will prevent the shaft seal faces from sticking.

21.2 Motors

Keep motor cooling fins and fan blades clean to ensure sufficient
cooling of the motor and electronics.
Motors above 10.0 Hp (7.5 kW) must be lubricated according to
the recommended intervals and with the type of bearing grease
stated on the motor.

21.3 Breaker cabinet

The breaker cabinet is maintenance-free. Keep it clean and dry.

21.4 Service kits

See Grundfos Product Center at www.grundfos.com for service
manuals.

DANGER
Contaminated drinking water
Death or serious personal injury
- Flush the system before starting it or after a
standstill period.
WARNING
Crushing of feet
Death or serious personal injury
- Wear appropriate protective gear, and use
appropriate lifting equipment when dismantling the

cabinet.
2. To shut down a pump, switch off the circuit breaker of the
pump.

22.1 Frost protection

If pumps are not used during periods of frost, they must be
drained to avoid damage.
Drain the pump by loosening the vent screw in the pump head,
then removing the drain plug from the base.
Do not tighten the vent screw or refit the drain plug until the
system is to be used again.
