The cover must be sufficiently large to ensure that the motor is
not exposed to direct sunlight, rain or snow. Grundfos does not
supply covers. We therefore recommend that you have a cover
built for the specific application. In areas with high humidity, we
recommend that you enable the built-in standstill heating
function.

Examples of covers (not supplied by Grundfos)
4.1.7 Drain holes
When the motor is installed in moist surroundings or areas with
high humidity, the bottom drain hole must be open. The enclosure
class of the motor will then be lower. This helps prevent
condensation in the motor as the motor becomes self-venting,
and it allows water and humid air to escape.
The motor has a plugged drain hole on the drive side. You can
turn the flange 90 ° to both sides or 180 °.

4.2 Electrical installation
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer, the manufacturer's service partner or a similarly
qualified person.
The user or the installer is responsible for the installation of
correct grounding and protection according to local regulations.
All operations must be carried out by a qualified electrician.
4.2.1 Protection against electric shock, indirect contact
Protective-ground conductors must always have a yellow/green
(PE) or yellow/green/blue (PEN) color marking.
Protection against power supply voltage transients
The motor is protected against power supply voltage transients in
accordance with EN 61800-3.
Motor protection
The motor requires no external motor protection. The motor
incorporates thermal protection against slow overloading and
blocking.
4.2.2 Cable requirements
Cable cross-section
Single-phase supply
Three-phase supply
