Electrical connection: Ensure that the supply voltage required by the motor corresponds to that of the distribution network
and that the section and length of the power cable are adapted to the power and current of the pump.
All the electrical connections on the pump and any change of power cable must be done by a qualified professional to avoid
any danger.
When carrying out the electrical connections, comply with the identification under the connection terminals.
Check that the electrical connections are correctly tightened and watertight before switching on the power.
Ensure the cable runs correctly through the opening and ferrite provided for this purpose. The cable gland ensures
watertightness around the cable, and the ferrite acts as a filter against electromagnetic disturbance.
Any pre-wiring on our pumps must be removed when the pump is permanently connected to the power supply. This
preparation is only used for testing at the factory during the manufacturing phases.
INSTALLATION
Install the pool pump so as to reduce pressure drops to a minimum whilst complying with the distances specified in the
installation standard, namely 3.5m minimum between the pump and the pool. The suction pipe must be installed with a slight
uphill incline towards the pump axis. Ensure that the connections are correctly tightened and watertight. However, avoid
excessively tightening the pipes. For plastic materials, use Teflon only to ensure watertightness. The diameter of the suction
pipe shall depend on that of the discharge pipe. Avoid damp or non-ventilated locations. The motor requires the cooling air
to circulate freely. Install the pump under shelter to avoid the control unit being subject to heavy splashing.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR START-UP AND PRIMING : Fill the body of the strainer with water up to the level of the suction pipe.
Never run the pump without water, as the water is necessary for cooling and lubrication of the mechanical shutter. Open
all the suction and discharge pipe valves, and the filter air purge valve if there is one. (Any air in the suction pipes must be
eliminated). Start up the generator and wait a reasonable time for priming. Five minutes is not excessive for priming (this
time depends on the suction head and the length of the suction pipe). If the pump does not start or does not prime, please
refer to the troubleshooting guide.
