3.4. Electrical connection
The electrical installation must have a multi-
pole isolator with minimum 3 mm contact
openings, The protection of the system will
be
based
on
(Δfn = 30 mA)
The power cable must correspond at least to the
type H05 RN-F (according to 60245 IEC 57) and
having terminals.
The connection and its dimensioning must be per-
formed by a qualified installer according to the
needs of the facility and following the regulations in
force in each country.
Pump models 25: Single-phase motors have
thermal protection.
The rest of the pump models with single
phase motor and all three phase motor
pumps do not incorporate this protection.
They must be connected to a motor-
protective
circuit
adjusted manually. Set the circuit breaker
according to the current given in the rating
plate plus 10%.
Follow instructions given on fig.1 for correct electri-
cal connection.
3.5. Pre-start checks
Ensure the voltage and frequency of the
supply corresponds to the values indicated
on the electrical data label.
Ensure that the pump shaft is rotating freely.
Fill the pump body with water through the self-
priming plug opening. If a foot valve has been
installed, also fill the suction pipe.
Check all joints and connections for leaks.
THIS PUMP MUST NEVER BE DRY RUN.
4. STARTING
Ensure all valves in the pipework are open.
Connect power supply. There will be a delay before
water appears at the end of the discharge pipe.
Viewings from the fan ensure that the rotation of the
motor is clockwise. On three phase pumps the
motor may rotate anticlockwise. If this is happening,
the flow will be lower than expected. To rectify this
situation the two supply phases need to be re-
versed.
Ensure that the absorbed current is the same or
lower than the maximum shown on the name plate.
Adjust the thermal relay if is necessary.
If the pump fails to operate refer to the possible
faults, causes and solutions list for assistance.

5. MAINTENANCE
Under normal conditions these pumps require no
special or planned maintenance.
Clean the pump with a damp cloth without using
harsh products.
If the pump is not to be operated for a long
period it is recommended to remove it from
the installation, drain down and store in a dry,
well ventilated place.
ATTENTION: In the event of faults or
damage occurring to the pump, repairs
should only be carried out by an authorised
service agent.
