See fig. Removal of non-return valve Assembly of pump part and motor. SQE-NE is supplied without non-return valve. The non-return valve can be fitted in a Grundfos 156 mm service workshop. Assembly of pump part and motor Motor (P2)
The motor plug must under no circum- stances be removed by the user. ‐ The cable with plug must be fitted or removed by an authorised Grundfos service workshop or a similarly quali- fied person. The following description is exclusively intended for service personnel.
It is recommended to join the submersible drop cable If the power factor (PF) of the motor unit equals 1.0, and the motor cable by means of a Grundfos cable you can use this equation to calculate the maximum termination kit, type KM.
7.8 Pipework connection Where flanged pipes are used, the cable clips should be fitted above and below each joint. If a tool, e.g. a chain pipe wrench, is used when the riser pipe is fitted to the pump, the pump must only be 7.8.2 Installation depths gripped by the pump discharge chamber.
8. Start-up Make sure that the well is capable of yielding a minimum quantity of water corresponding to the pump capacity. Do not start the pump until it is completely submerged in the liquid. Start the pump and do not stop it until the pumped liquid is completely clean, as otherwise the pump parts and the non-return valve may choke up.
9.3 Well system pressure overload In order to provide protection against overpressure, install a pressure relief valve downstream of the well head. The setpoint of the pressure relief valve must be at least 30 psi above the pressure setting. If you install a relief valve, we recommend that you connect it to an appropriate drainage point. Using Pmin and Qmax, the minimum diaphragm tank size, precharge pressure and pressure switch settings can be found in the guideline table below: Example...

11. Fault finding chart CAUTION Electric shock Minor or moderate personal injury ‐ Before starting any work on the pump/motor, make sure that the power supply has been switched off and that it cannot be accidentally switched on. 11.1 The pump does not run. Cause Remedy The fuses in the electric installation are blown.
Cause Remedy The riser pipe is defective. Replace the riser pipe. Undervoltage has occurred. Check the power supply. 11.4 Frequent starts and stops. Cause Remedy The differential of the pressure switch between the Increase the differential. However, the stop pressure start and stop pressures is too small.
12. Checking the power supply WARNING Electric shock Death or serious personal injury ‐ Before starting any work on the pump/motor, make sure that the power supply has been switched off and that it cannot be accidentally switched on. 1. Supply voltage Measure the voltage (RMS) be- The voltage should, when the motor is loaded, tween phase and neutral.
In case of doubt, please contact Grundfos or the local authorities.
