Information sticker / motor fill
Submersible motors are filled with a liquid based on drinking water.
A distinction is made between filled and unfilled motors, marked by a colour-coded
information sticker attached to the motor.
Motors which are supplied filled with a mixture of drinking water / antifreeze agent
must not be filled with pure drinking water at a later stage without prior
consultation with the manufacturer.
