Lifting instructions PT150 pump unit DANGER Never walk under a raised load. This can result in a life-threatening situation. WARNING Always disconnect all external connections before moving the pump unit. WARNING Neither the lifting eye on the engine nor the lifting eye of the (bare shaft) pump may be used for transport of the pump unit.
DANGER The standard lifting eyes on BBA pump units, both in low-noise enclosure and open frame, are NOT designed to lift the additional weight of trailers or other components. It is strictly forbidden to use the standard lifting provision to lift or move the pump units with a higher total weight than stated in the specification sheets.
Note BBA Pumps is not responsible for accidents and damage that result from failure to follow the guidelines in this manual. Such use results in forfeiture of the right to assert any warranty or damage compensation claims.
Pump – general To fill the pump housing with water 1. Remove the upper cover from the stone catcher. 2. Fill the stone catcher with water. 3. Close the cover. Control panel If the PT pump is supplied with a star-delta switch, it has three positions: Neutral, Star (1) and Delta (2).
WARNING Turning the switch too slowly will cause the motor's thermal protection to trip. Return the switch to the neutral position and switch it on again. Checking the direction of rotation WARNING This test may only be performed by authorized personnel with the appropriate training.
Daily maintenance of the pump − Check the oil level in drive unit Note If the oil in the pump drive has become whitish in colour, replace the oil. The whitish colour may indicate the presence of excessive condensation water in the oil. −...
Preperation for starting 1. Take any necessary measures to ensure that the electrical connections and cables cannot be damaged 2. The voltage and frequency must be checked in advance and must match the motor specifications. This data is shown on the type plate of the motor. 3.
Starting and stopping 1. Check the pump type (type plate) and the characteristics of the pump unit, such as: speed, operating pressure, consumed power, operating temperature, direction of rotation, etc. 2. Check whether the pump unit is placed in accordance with the instructions. Pay particular attention to the area around the pump unit.

Unscrewing the nipple increases the bleed air from the vacuum regulator valve. 10. Check whether both vacuum gauges (1 and 2) on the stone catcher show the same reading. If the readings differ, the grate in the stone catcher needs to be cleaned. 11.
WARNING Dewatering activities will have an impact on the surrounding area in which water is being extracted from the ground. Settling of the ground occurs during groundwater extraction. This can result in grains of sand moving closer together, which will have an impact on the ground. This can cause cracks in buildings and pipes.
Monitoring during operation 1. During operation check the pump regularly for correct functioning, smooth and vibration-free running abnormal noises and leaks. 2. If the pump has pumped for a long time without having moved water, the pump housing must be filled with water, because the cups shrink after having run dry for a long time.
Draining the pump when there is danger of freezing If there is a danger of freezing, a pump used to pump a liquid that may freeze must be drained (while at a standstill). 1. Turn off the engine and open canopy draining ports (covers / plugs) (1). 2.
Troubleshooting table WARNING In the event of a malfunction or abnormal operation, shut off the pump immediately to prevent a dangerous situation and/or damage to the unit. Problem Possible cause Solution No flow while the pump and drive Wellpoint system is not properly Check the wellpoint system and are running.
