This is how to install your pump Connect the pump to power. If rotation of motor is wrong shift two phases. (Shift two phases in the power supply terminal or in the CEE plug, or turn the knob on phase shifter). If the pump still doesn’t start: Call a qualified electrician and ask him to check the mains and the junctions.
Hose Kinks in the hose will reduce the pump capacity. Cable and power supply Having the right cable and handling it properly will save you from many malfunctions. WARNING! If the cable sheath is damaged and the cable is lowered into the water, water may enter into the If your cable is too long, junction chamber of the pump.
Permanent installation Respect limitations • The pump must not be submerged to more than 20 metres/65 feet. IP-68. • The temperature of the medium must not exceed 40°C/103°F. • The pH-value should be between 4 and 10. • The voltage drop in operation must not exceed 5 %.

Checking the oil level Bravo 20, 30, 40 • Put the pump in a horizontal position so that 2 hexa- gon socket screws are on top and one at the bottom. • Unscrew the level plug (1) and the vent plug (2).
Oil change Bravo 20, 30, 40 • Put the pump in a horizontal position so that the drain plug (3) is at the bottom. • Remove the vent plugs (1) and (2). • Put a receiving bin underneath the drain plug.
Motor housing Bravo 20, 30, 40 • Place the pump in a vertical position and remove the 4 hexagon socket screws of the motorhousing. • Lift the motor unit very carefully a few cm’s, see fig. If water is present this will come out this way.
Trouble shooting Safety Attention! When working on the motor, make sure • When working on the pump, make sure it cannot that the power is switched off. start unexpectedly! When starting the pump, ensure nobody • Only qualified electricians may do the goes near rotating parts.

Wiring diagrams NOTE The overcurrent protection should be set to AUTO. The tripping current should be max. the rated current of the pump. Note that the scales for direct online and star/delta are different. The Y/D over- load relay should be set at phase current = 0,58 x line current. The Y/D time relay should be set at 3s. 15 (16) •...
