To avoid damage to the pump part, make sure that the motor stops W1 W2 when the pump flow falls below 0.1 × rated flow. Voltage peaks for Grundfos submersible motors should be limited in accordance with the table below. Max. U peak Motor type Max.
6.6.8 SPE and sine-wave filter 7. Setting up the CUE frequency converter in an Grundfos SPE pump systems, consisting of one SPE pump set and SPE system one CUE, meet the VFD and motor input requirements in the table The SPE system consists of the following: below.
15 Nm. Connect the motor cable to the drop cable by use of original Grundfos cable termination kits, such as shrink tube type KM or cable termination kit type M0 to M4. If necessary, shorten the motor cable to ensure that it is always covered with pump medium prior to making the cable jointing as described above.
8.3 Lifting the product 8.4 Riser pipe Grundfos recommends to fit a maximum 30 cm long pipe to the WARNING pump to facilitate handling of the pump during installation. Sharp element Death or serious personal injury ‐ When mounting the riser pipe, wear personal protective equipment to avoid cutting on sharp edges on the pump.
Make sure that the power supply cannot be accidentally switched on. Do not lower or lift the pump by means of the motor cable. Grundfos recommends checking the borehole by means of an inside calliper before lowering the pump to ensure unobstructed passage.
L5: Installation depth. If the pump can pump more than yielded by the well, we recommend that you install the Grundfos MP 204 motor protector or some other type of dry-running protection. If no water level electrodes or level switches are installed, the water level may be drawn down to the suction interconnector of the pump and the pump will then draw in air.
Maximum 2 per hour. The pumps can be serviced at a Grundfos service centre. Maximum 20 per day. If Grundfos is requested to service the pump, Grundfos must be MMS10000 contacted with details about the pumped liquid, etc. before the Grundfos recommends pump is returned for service.

1. Supply voltage Measure the voltage between the phases by means of a voltmeter. The voltage must, when the motor is loaded, be within the range specified in section Electrical connection On single-phase motors, measure between phase and neutral or between two phases, The motor may burn if there are larger variations in voltage.
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.
