General This instruction manual will help you not only to understand how the appliance works, but also to get to know its possible applications. This user manual contains important recommendations that are necessary for the appliance to be properly and economically operated. These recommendations must be complied with in order to ensure reliability and durability, and to avoid any risks of accidents resulting from improper use. -
Page 7: Applications And Use
Motor energy efficient information All electric pumps use motors compliant with reg. 640/2009 EC and subsequent amendments, therefore, compliant with efficiency class IE3 (three-phase versions with power greater than 0.55 kW). Applications and use These appliances are designed for professional use in applications such as water supply from groundwater, pressure increase, irrigation or heat transfer fluid circulation. -
Page 8: Installation
Other uses The liquid to be pumped has a viscosity or density higher than that of the water (it will be necessary to use a motor with a proportionally greater power) The water to be pumped is chemically treated (softened, chlorinated, purified, etc.) Any situation other than those listed under permitted use occurs. -
Page 9: Hydraulic Connections
Three-phase versions Power the electric pump via a cut-off device, in accordance with the installation requirements. Three-phase appliances must be protected against short-circuits and overloads by a class 10 protection device, in accordance with IEC 60947-4. Set the rated current according to the value shown on the rating plate. Use a manual reset device. - Page 10 The pipe diameter must not be smaller than the diameter of the suction outlet and must be airtight. If the suction pipe is larger than the outlet, install an eccentric reducer. If the pump is installed above the level of the liquid to be drawn, a non-return valve must be installed at the bottom of the pipe or before the pump.

Page 11: Commissioning And Decommissioning
Commissioning and Decommissioning Pay attention to the drained liquid so that it cannot harm people or things. • Do not start the appliance without the safety devices (mechanical guards and electrical protections required). • During operation, the external surfaces of the pump and motor may exceed 40°C if the liquid pumped is not at room temperature. -
Page 12: Maintenance And Support
Maintenance and Support Make sure that the electrical voltage has been interrupted and that it cannot be accidentally restored during maintenance operations. If the pump is single-phase, make sure that the capacitor is discharged. Close the shut-off valves upstream and downstream of the appliance. Risk of spills of the fluid pumped by the machine: The pumped fluid may be pressurised even with the machine stopped: before intervening, isolate the machine from the system by closing the upstream and downstream shut-off valves and partially unscrew the filler cap to reduce the internal pressure. -
Page 13: Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting To fix problems related to electric pump operation, follow the instructions in the Table. If you do not have the necessary knowledge and skills, contact qualified personnel. FAULT POSSIBLE CAUSES SOLUTIONS a) The internal parts are blocked Disassemble the pump and clean. by foreign bodies: b) Clogged suction pipe: Clean the pipe. - Page 14 Unit 1 Lock Flight Buildings, Wheatlea Industrial Estate, Wigan, Greater Manchester WN3 6XP United Kingdom 9001 : 2015 REGISTERED Membership No. 700106 Certificate No. 185352020 Copyright © 2020 • All Rights Reserved • Flowtech Water Solutions Limited • Company Number: 05125479 • VAT Number: 836 8024 19...
