Warranty - FLOWTECH flowpac compact SE Operation And Maintenance Manual

This document is to be used in conjunction with a tank and inverter operating and maintenance manual, if
you require replacement documents please contact us.

Warranty

The guarantee is rendered null and void if the instructions given in this booklet are not adhered
To and/or if anyone other than personnel from our service centres intervenes on the motor-driven pump. In
these cases, the manufacturer is relieved from all responsibility regarding injury to people and subsequent
damage to adjacent items and/or the motor driven pump itself.
Once you have received the motor-driven pump, make sure that the packaging is not broken or seriously
damaged. If it is, immediately inform the person who delivered it. After extracting the motor pump from its
packaging, make sure that it was not damaged during transportation. If it has been, inform Flowtech within 8
days from delivery. Check the motor-driven pump plate to ensure that the indicated characteristics are those
requested by you.
The following parts, being normally subject to wear, have a limited guarantee:
•
bearings
•
mechanical seals
•
grommets
• capacitors
If a fault that is not listed in the "TROUBLESHOOTING" table occurs, please contact Flowtech.
Residual risks for surface pumps
a) The possibility of coming into contact (even if not accidentally) with the motor's cooling fan by inserting thin
objects (e.g. screwdrivers, sticks and similar) through the fan cover holes.
b) For single-phase pumps, possible start-up without notice due to automatic rearm of the motor protection
device, following the latter's intervention due to motor overheating.
Technical-production characteristics
The motor-driven pump you have purchased has been designed and manufactured in compliance with the
following directives:
•
MECHANICAL HAZARDS (Annex I Machinery Directive):
-
UNI EN ISO 12100
•
ELECTRICAL HAZARDS (Annex I Machinery Directive):
- UNI EN ISO 12100
-
CEI EN 60204-1
•
VARIOUS RISKS (Enclosure I Machines Directive):
-
2006/42/EC – Enclosure I
The electrical components and relative circuits installed on the motor-driven pumps are in accordance with
the CEI EN 60204-1 Directive.
Installation and dismantling, transport and storage
Installation must be carried out by a qualified engineer.
General installation precautions
a) Use metal or rigid plastic pipes in order to avoid their yielding because of the depression created at
suction;
b) Support and align pipes so that they do not put any stress on the pump;
c) Avoid throttlings caused by bending suction and delivery hoses;
d) Seal any piping connections: air infiltration in the suction pipe negatively affects pump operation;
e) We recommend that a non-return valve and a gate are installed on the delivery pipe at the motor-driven
pump outlet;
f) Fix the piping to the reservoir or to any fixed parts so that it is not supported by the pump;
g) Do not use a lot of bends (goosenecks) and valves;
h) on SURFACE PUMPS installed above head, the suction pipe should be fitted with a foot valve and filter in
order to prevent foreign matter from entering and its end should be immersed at a depth that is at least twice
