General information about document The Data Sheet, Installa�on and Opera�ng Instruc�ons contain fundamental informa�on that must be observed during installa�on, opera�on and maintenance. It is therefore essen�al that the relevant opera�ng personnel or the user familiarizes themselves with them before installa�on and commissioning. This document must be permanently available at the place of use of the equipment.
•ineffec�veness of prescribed maintenance and repair methods; •a dangerous situa�on for the health and life of personnel due to electrical or mechanical factors. Performing work in compliance with safety techniques The safety instruc�ons in this document, the exis�ng na�onal safety regula�ons as well as any internal work, opera�ng and safety regula�ons applicable to the user must be observed during the work.
Self-conversion and manufacture of spare parts and components Conversion or modifica�on of the devices may only be carried out in agreement with the manufacturer.Original spare parts and components as well as components authorized by the manufacturer are designed to ensure reliable opera�on. The use of assemblies and parts from other manufacturers may cause the manufacturer to deny liability for any resul�ng consequences.
Guideline 4. General information about product This document applies to the pumps of the Mega series. Circula�on pumps of the complete Mega series are equipped with an integrated control system,to ensure that the pump capacity is matched with the actual requirements of the system.In many systems, this results...

Pos. Name Brand Frequency Voltage Insula�on class Protec�on class Maximum fluid temperature Energy efficiency Index Cer�fica�on Type Serial number Rota�on direc�on Power Current Maximum pressure Check valve If a check valve is installed in the piping system (Fig. Fig. 1), it must be ensured that the set minimum discharge pressure of the pump is higher than the closing pressure of the valve.
Operation with closed shut-off valves Mega pumps can operate harmlessly for several days with closed shut-off valves and at any speed. It is recommended to set the control mode to minimum speed to reduce energy consump�on. There is no minimum flow requirement. The pump inlet and outlet valves must not be closed at the same time to prevent pressure build-up.
Scope of supply Fig. 2 External view of the Mega pump The box contains the following components: •Mega Pump; •Technical Documenta�on; •Plug; •Threaded pipe connec�ons complete with gaskets (for pumps with threaded connec�on); Moving Warning Local code restrictions for manual lifting and loading and unloading operations must be observed.
In addi�on, the pump can be used in the following systems: •systems that u�lize geothermal energy; •solar hea�ng systems. Pumped fluids The pump is designed for pumping clean, non-viscous, explosion- proof, solids-free or long-fiber-free liquids that are chemically neutral to the pump materials.In hea�ng systems, water must meet the requirements of local water quality standards for hea�ng systems.
Guideline 7.Principle of action The opera�ng principle of the Mega series pumps is based on increasing the pressure of the liquid moving from the inlet to the outlet. The pressure increase is achieved by transferring mechanical energy from the motor sha� coupled to the pump sha� directly to the liquid by means of a rota�ng impeller.
In some cases it may be necessary to install condensate collec�on and drainage devices. Mounting pump The Mega series includes pumps with flange and threaded connec�on. These installa�on and opera�ng instruc�ons apply to all versions, however, a general descrip�on of pumps with flanges is provided. In case of differences, the descrip�on for the version with threaded...
3.Install the pump with gaskets on the piping. 4.Version with flange: Install bolts, washers and nuts. Size the bolts according to the system pressure. Threaded version: Tighten the connec�on nuts. Fig. 3 Moun�ng the pump Mounting position The pump should always be installed with the motor sha� horizontal. Avoid posi�oning the pump on a piping system with the flow direc�on downward.

Thermal insulation When carrying out thermal insula�on measures it is forbidden to apply thermal insula�on to the pump head. Fig. 7 Thermal insula�on of the Mega pump Warning Provision must be made measures to protect personnel from injury and prevent equipment damage from fluid leaking out when the stator is unscrewed.
Page 18
Warning The pump must be connected to an external switch, minimum contact gap: 3 mm on all poles. Earthing or grounding must be used as protection against electric shock in case of indirect contact. Versions with plug connection: In case of insulation damage, the short-circuit current can be a pulsating direct current.
10.Commissioning All products are subjected to acceptance tes�ng at the factory. No addi�onal tes�ng is required at the installa�on site. Before commissioning, the system must be flushed, filled with opera�ng liquid and vented. The pump inlet must be pressurized to the required pressure.

Description bu�on indicator light work mode Selecting the control mode The control mode is selected by pressing the bu�on on the control panel, see Fig. Fig.10, pos. 4. 4. The selected control mode is displayed by means of light fields on the control panel.

selected opera�ng characteris�c curve - CP1, CP2, CP3 Depending on the pump unit size, between 1 and 3 constant pressure control curves are available. Selec�ng the appropriate constant pressure control mode depends on system parameters and desired flow rate. See Control Mode Selec�on Guidelines. Fixed speed control mode (CP1-3) In this control mode, the pump operates at a fixed speed regardless of the required flow rate in the system.

PWM control mode The incoming PWM signal is used to transmit the PWM signal the signal cable is included in the kit. The connec�on is made to the appropriate connector located in the control unit (see Fig.Fig.15) depending on the pump size. Ac�on Sequence: 1.Disconnect the pump from the mains.
Pump operation by PWM signal The Mega series pumps can be controlled by a PWM signal from an external controller, e.g. boiler controller, smart home controller, etc. The pump itself also sends the PWM output signal to possible dispatching and monitoring devices that allow monitoring the status of the pump (opera�on or stoppage,...

The pump can also switch to an opera�ng mode according Control mode to the maximum or minimum characteris�c, i.e. a mode at fixed speed similar to that of an unregulated pump: •Maximum characteris�c opera�on should be selected at t i m e s when maximum flow is required.

All electrical lines upstream of the mains s w i t c h are permanently energized. Therefore, the mains switch must be locked out to prevent accidental or unauthorized activation of the equipment. Attention 14.Protection against low temperatures If the pump is not operated during cold weather, the necessary measures should be taken to prevent damage from exposure to low temperatures.

Maximum system pressure The sum of the pump inlet pressure and the pressure at closed shut-off valves must be less than the maximum allowable system pressure. Attention The maximum permissible system pressure is stated on the nameplate of the pump: PN 10: 10 bar / 1.0 MPa The pump must not be used with system pressures higher than those indicated on the rating plate under normal operating conditions.
