EPDM FFKM In August 2003 the NEMA version pump code was discontinued for all material numbers created by Grundfos manufacturing companies in North America. The NEMA version pump code will still remain in effect for existing material numbers. NEMA version pumps built in North America after this change will have either an A or a U as the pump version code depending on the date the material number was created.

Problem Possible cause Remedy 4. Fuses blow or circuit a) Tank is too small. Check voltage at starter panel and motor. If breakers or overload voltage varies more than - 10 %/+ 10 %, contact relays trip power company. Check wire sizing. b) Motor overload protection set too low.
20. Worksheet for three-phase motors Below is a worksheet for calculating current unbalance on a three-phase hookup. Use the calculations below as a guide. Current unbalance should not exceed 5 % at service factor load or 10 % at rated input load. If the unbalance cannot be corrected by rolling the leads, the source of the unbalance must be located and corrected.
This product or parts of it must be disposed of in an environmentally sound way: 1. Use the public or private waste collection service. 2. If this is not possible, contact the nearest Grundfos company or service workshop. The crossed-out wheelie bin symbol on a product means that it must be disposed of separately from household waste.
