Pre-Start Checks; Starting; Maintenance; Disposing Of The Product - Espa VIGICOR Instruction Manual

3.4. Pre-start checks

Ensure the voltage and frequency of the
supply corresponds to the values indicated on
the electrical data label.
Ensure that the pump is submerged as shown in
Fig.2.
The manufacturer declines any responsibility for
damages caused by erroneous connections.
THIS PUMP MUST NEVER BE DRY RUN.

4. STARTING

Ensure all valves in the pipework are open.
Connect the electrical panel plug into a socket. If
there is an appropriate level of water, the motor will
immediately start up.
Check that the absorbed current is the same as
marked on the name plate.
If the motor does not start or no water flows at the
end of the line, try to find the anomaly using the
troubleshooting guide in point 8.
Contact with the rotating turbine or blade can
cause serious injury.

5. MAINTENANCE

Under normal conditions these pumps require no
special or planned maintenance.
During frosty periods, remember to drain the
line.
Clean the pump by having it pump clean water
when it is to be withdrawn in order to prevent
deposition of sand or other materials.
If the pump is not to be operated for a long
period it is recommended to remove it from the
installation, drain down and store in a dry, well
ventilated place.
ATTENTION: In the event of faults or damage
occurring to the pump, repairs or electric cable
replacement should only be carried out by an
authorised service agent.
