6.4 Start/stop level

6.4.1 Unilift KP-A
The level difference between start and stop can be
adjusted by changing the free cable length between
the pump handle and the float switch.
• A long free cable length gives fewer starts/stops
and a large level difference.
• A short free cable length gives frequent starts/
stops and a small level difference.
To enable the float switch to start and stop the pump,
the free cable length (L) must be min. 70 mm and
max. 150 mm. See fig. 6.

6.5 Electrical connection

The electrical connection must be carried out in
accordance with local regulations and standards.
Check that the mains voltage and frequency
correspond to the values stated on the pump
nameplate.
Warning
The pump must be connected to an
external mains switch with a minimum
contact gap of 3 mm in all poles.
As a precaution, all pumps must be
connected to a socket with earth con-
nection.
We recommend to fit permanent
installations with an earth leakage
Note
circuit breaker (ELCB) with a tripping
current < 30 mA.
Warning
Pumps for swimming pools, outdoor
fountains, garden ponds and similar
applications must be provided with an
earth leakage circuit breaker (ELCB)
with a tripping current < 30 mA.
The pump motor incorporates thermal overload
protection and requires no additional motor
protection.
If the motor is overloaded, it will stop automatically.
When the motor has cooled to normal
temperature, it will restart
Note
automatically.
Motors for Unilift KP 350, 3 x 200 V, 50 Hz, must be
connected to a motor-protective circuit breaker.
Three-phase pumps with float switch (Unilift KP-A)
must be connected to the mains supply by means of
a contactor. See fig. 8.
