    SAFETY RULES AND ACCIDENT PREVENTION When working near the pumping unit, dress appropriately, avoiding baggy clothes with loose items (ties, scarves, etc.), which could get caught in moving parts. Use overalls fig. 1 made according to safety regulations, gloves, insulating shoes, safety glasses, safety earmuffs and hard hat (fig.1).
  • Page 6 Clean pipework thoroughly before connecting it to the pump. Suction pipes must have the same diameter as the pump suction port (for larger diameters, seek Varisco’s advice). Where possible, avoid curves, elbows or constrictions liable to limit the flow of liquid to the pump. Do not fit the foot valve: the pump comes with a built-in nonreturn valve (14.1) (fig.
  • Page 7 STARTING Before operating the pump, check that electrical and mechanical parts of the system have been correctly installed. Make sure all safety devices are operative. Make sure the pump’s direction of rotation is correct (section 11.1) Check the seal and bearing oil level by means of the oil level sight glasses on the support (fig. 7a) The seal is an oil-immersed model (Mobil Delvac SAE 15W-40.), and should be replaced after 5,000 hours of operation, or once a year.
  • Page 8: Maintenance

    MAINTENANCE Before maintenance is carried out, the pump must be stopped and the power supply disconnected. The supply must only be switched back on by the operator performing maintenance. Warning: residual liquid may be found in the pump casing, head and suction line. Comply with safety procedures for the handling of hazardous liquids (flammable, corrosive, poisonous, infected etc.).

To achieve this value, you need to move wear plate (02) away from the impeller (03) by turning the screws (54.5) once you have calculated "C"...

    13.8 Bearings maintenance (fig. 9) The pump is supplied with oil-immersed bearings (DELVAC SAE 15W - 40) and they do not require maintenance for the first 5,000 hours of operation. Change oil once a year. 13.9 Replacing bearings - Drain the pump casing as indicated in section 7.1 Warning: residual liquid may be found in the pump casing, head and suction line.
  • Page 11 20 viscosity of the liquid is higher than expected contact VARISCO once you have measured the viscosity of the liquid. Viscosity for centrifugal pumps should not exceed 50 cSt. Check for other possible causes: see point 5 in section 14.1, and section 14.2.
