1.4 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS Become thoroughly familiar with the instructions in the documents consigned with the aerator. This will enable you to work in complete safety and to obtain the best performance the aerator is capable to offer. The following instructions apply to the standard version of the aerator in normal conditions. Special versions, shown by the product code, may not fully comply with the indications herein (when necessary, the manual will be supplied with additional information).

Since the nature of the aerated liquids varies, it may be necessary to wear appropriate clothing to protect your skin from contact with the same. For safety reasons and to ensure compliance with the warranty conditions, the purchaser is forbidden to use the aerator should this become faulty or in the event of a sudden variation in the performances of the aerator itself.

The SC submerged aerator evidently provides an elevated performance in the transfer of oxygen and increased mixing ability. In addition, working as it does on the bottom of the tank, it permits a total airing of the waste water avoiding dead zones which are characteristic of other systems.
4. STORAGE AND HANDLING Store the product in a dry and dust-free place. Avoid instability which could be caused by improper positioning of the product. Turn the rotating parts at regular intervals to prevent them from possible jamming (consult the “Preliminary inspections” chapter for relative procedure).

• If the cable must be extended do as follows: - handle the joint carefully and avoid submerging it; - do not extend the cable more than the necessary length choosing a suitable dimension of the cable. A voltage drop may occur if the cable is too long or if the dimension is too small, so as to give you problems to start the motor.
ATTENTION: The rotation sense can be checked visually. You must keep 1 metre distance from the aerator, wear suitable clothes and never touch the machine. (picture 4) 5.2 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS (SEE PICTURE ON PAGES 17/18/19/20). Do not never ever open the motor of the aerator. Call qualified staff if necessary.
Star/delta start: adjust the thermal relay to a current-carrying capacity equivalent at the latest to 0,58 times the nominal absorption indicated on the rating plate. If the motor protector goes off while the aerator is working, check the fuses before trying to start it again.
6.3 MAINTENANCE Routine maintenance and repairs must be carried out by specialized technicians in possession of adequate qualifications and equipped with the right tools. These technicians must have become fully familiar with the contents of this manual and with any other documentation supplied with the product.

Checking the impeller and the suction plug If the air volume decreases: a - Check that the impeller or the suction plug are not clogged and remove possible clogging materials. b - Replace the impeller and/or the suction plug and/or the bushing seal of the impeller. In case they would be damaged, consult S.C.M.
