10.2.3 Maximum pressure exceeded

This function protects the piping on the discharge side of the 
booster system against damaging high pressures. The pressure 
is monitored, and if the pressure is higher than 22 psi (1.5 bar) 
above the setpoint for more than 5 seconds, the pumps are 
stopped, the indicator light 

 illuminates, and the display 

indicates high limit 

.

When the pressure falls below the setpoint, the system will 
automatically restart.

10.2.4 Low-flow operation

When only one pump is operating due to cascade, the Hydro 
Multi-B will regularly check for low flow by decreasing the pump 
speed.

When low flow is detected, the Hydro Multi-B will change its mode 
of operation to "low-flow operation" and run in on/off mode as 
described below.

In on/off mode, the system has two phases: 

Off phase 
Water is drawn from the diaphragm tank until the pressure of 
the system reaches the lower limit of the on/off band 
(P

set

 - 0.5 x on/off band).

Boosting phase
The pump runs at 100 % speed until the pressure reaches the 
upper limit of the on/off band (P

set

 + 0.5 x on/off band).

On/off operation

11. Data communication

The CU 323 must have a CIM module (Communication Interface 
Module) fitted to be able to transfer data to the SCADA system.

12. Maintenance and service

12.1 Maintenance

12.1.1 Pumps

The internal pump parts are maintenance-free. It is important to 
keep the motor clean in order to ensure adequate cooling of the 
motor. If the pump is installed in dusty environments, it must be 
cleaned and checked regularly. Take the enclosure class of the 
motor into account when cleaning.

The motor has maintenance-free, greased-for-life bearings.

12.1.2 CU 323

The CU 323 is maintenance-free. It must be kept clean and dry. 
Protect it against direct sunlight. Furthermore, the CU 323 must 
not be outside the ambient temperature range.

12.2 Frost protection

Pumps which are not being used during periods of frost should be 
drained to avoid damage. Follow the instructions below:

1. Close the isolating valves before and after the pump.

2. Remove the filling and drain plugs.

3. Remember to open the isolating valves and refit the plugs 

before the pump is put into operation again.

Do not fit the filling and drain plugs until the pump is to be used 
again.

12.2.1 Taking out of operation

Switch off the main disconnect switch to take the booster system 
out of operation.

Individual pumps are taken out of operation by switching off the 
corresponding motor-protective circuit breaker, automatic circuit 
breaker or fuse.

Warning

Before starting work on the pumps, make sure 
that the power supply has been switched off. 
Lock the main switch with a padlock to ensure 
that it cannot be accidentally switched on.

Warning

Ensure that the escaping water does not cause 
injury to persons or damage to the motor or other 
components. 
In hot-water installations, special attention 
should be paid to the risk of injury caused by 
scalding hot water.

Warning

The conductors in front of the main switch are 
still energized. Lock the main switch with a 
padlock to ensure that it cannot be accidentally 
switched on.
