Installation

Verify that the data shown on the plate, and in particular, power, frequency, voltage, absorbed current, are
compatible with the characteristics of the electric line or current generator available. In particular, the voltage
of the line voltage can have a variance of ± 5% from the nominal voltage value on the plate.
The disconnection devices must be foreseen in the supply network.
The connection to the power grid must be done in the respect of the national standards of the electric system
of the country where the pump is installed.
Verify that the pump's flow rate and head correspond to the required characteristics.
Before connecting the pipes to the relative openings, make sure that the rotating part of the pump turns freely
and is not hindered.
The pipes must be supported by anchorages to prevent their weight damaging the bodies of the electric pump (fig. 2
–A).
The suction piping diam. must not be less than the pump outlet diam. and it must have a positive inclination towards
the pump (see pict. 2-B). Fix a foot valve (see pict. 2-C) and a gate valve on the delivery pipe to adjust the capacity.
The pump must be installed as nearest as possible to the liquid to be pumped.
6. Setting at work, operation and stop
Before executing any operation, turn off the power and prevent it from being reconnected.
After verifying the data indicated on the plate, connect the terminals of the motor following the schemes indicated in
fig.3, according to the tension and to the number of phases of the feeder line. Connect the earthing cable. Once the
connection is done, re-assemble the fairleads and close with care the terminal board.
Three-phase motors: clockwise rotation seen from fan motor side; if not, invert two phases.
Failure to comply with instructions may
result in electric shock.
