The adjustment data for the thermal relay is to be used as a guideline, as the motor is already fitted with protection.
For 230 V, use a H07 RN-F3 type connection sleeve with a cable section that adapts to the power of the motor and
to the length of the cable.
For AC, use a H07 RN-F3 type connection sleeve with a cable section that adapts to the power of the motor and
the length of the cable.
The mains cable may only be connected by skilled, authorised personnel.
4. START-UP INSTRUCTIONS
PRIOR TO START-UP
- Carry out the following operations before starting the pump:
1. Remove the pre-filter cap by unscrewing the nut holding it in place (Fig. 5).
2. Fill the pump with water through the pre-filter until it rises up through the suction pipe.
3. Should the basket be removed during these operations, do not forget to replace it to prevent large particles from
entering the pump that could block it.
4. Check that the mains voltage and frequency correspond with those indicated on the pump characteristics plate.
- Fit the pre-filter cap and screw on tight, not forgetting to fit the seal in its housing (Fig. 5).
- The pumps must not be run without the pre-filter having first been filled with water. Where this is not the case,
the mechanical gasket may be damaged, leading to a loss of water.
START-UP
- Open all the valves and connect the motor.
- Activate the self-priming and wait a reasonable time for this to be completed.
5. MAINTENANCE
- Clean the pre-filter basket regularly to avoid drops in pressure. To prevent the basket from breaking, do not hit it
during the cleaning process.
- Should the pump stop, check that consumption of the running motor in amperes is equal to or below that indicated
on the manufacturer's characteristics plate. If this information is available, contact the nearest Technical Assistance
Service.
- Empty the pump if it is to remain at a standstill for a certain length of time, especially in cold countries where
there is a risk of freezing.
- Remove the purge cap (10) to empty the pump.
- Every time the pre-filter is opened, clean the seal and its seating of any impurities to ensure airtightness when
the cap is closed (Fig. 5).
- Pump components that, due to their normal use, suffer wear and/or tear must be regularly replaced to ensure
good pump performance. The following table shows the perishables and/or consumables used in the pump and
their estimated working life.
