Use
Centrifugal pump for submersible usage with resin encapsulated motor.
These stream pumps are intended for the transport of water in a garden pond, a fi sh pond, or a fountain, for
the operation of fi lter systems, steams, and waterfalls, etc., as well as for aeration and circulation of water.
The pump may not be used in or on the side of swimming pools!
Please refer to the type plate for technical specifi cations or the table on page 1.
Safety measures
-
Caution!
It may only be used in garden ponds and in their protection area if the electrical installations have
been set up to comply with the code’s requirements. Please contact an electrician.
- Before use: Check whether mains connection and plug are intact.
- Mains voltage and type of current have to correspond to the data on the type plate.
-
The pump has to be connected to a regular safety plug socket through a residual current device
(RCD, 30 mA).
-
The connection box should be located in a water-protected area. It should be at least 2 m away from
the edge of the pond (see Fig.1).
- Keep the plug dry!
-
Pull out mains plug before starting to work on the pump, fountain or pond.
It is not allowed to run the pump when people are inside the water! (disconnect the pump)
-
Important!
If the mains connection or the motor housing is damaged, the pump cannot be used anymore.
It cannot be repaired since the connection is cast into the motor housing.
- Never hang up or transport the pump by the cable!
- Operate the pump only when it is immersed in water!
Start up (see Fig. 1)
Important! Do not let the pump run dry. The possibility of damage to the device cannot be excluded in
this case.
- Completely immerse the pump in your pond. In this process water will penetrate into the pump body.
- A minimum water depth of 25 cm is required for underwater operation to avoid the pump taking in air.
-
The maximum depth for submerged operation of the
2 m
pump is 2 m!
- The water temperature should not exceed 35°C.
- The pump must be protected from frost.
- You can switch on the pump by plugging the power plug into the outlet.
- To prevent unnecessary fouling place the pump above the sludge deposits on a stable and horizontal
substrate (stone slab), in your pond!
- You can connect accessories on the threaded connections of the pump.
Overload protection
The built-in thermal overload trip prevents the pump from being overheated.
The pump must cool down.
When cool, the pump will not start automatically without the necessary controlling.
Check the following operating conditions:
- Is there a suffi
cient water supply?
- Has the fi lter become clogged?
- Has dirt entered the pump housing (Follow the cleaning instructions below)?
- Have hoses or jets become clogged?
- Has the pump cooled down?
As soon as you have solved the problems, you can start the pump again, pulling the plug out and putting it
again in the socket after a short time (1 min.)
Dismantling / Assembly (see Fig. 2 - 5)
1. Follow the safety measures.
Disconnect the pump!
2. Push the two fl aps at the front side of the pump inwards. Lift and remove upper shell (1).
3. Remove the entire pump (7) with pump housing (4) from the lower shell (2).
4. Loosen the 4 screws (9).
5. Unclip pump housing (4) from motor housing (4).
6. Remove rotor assembly (5) from motor housing (7). Pay attention to the O-ring (6) in the motor housing (7).
7. Clean all parts using clear water and soft sponge.
8. Mounting:
- Press the O-ring (6) onto the rim in the motor housing (7).
- Push the rotor assembly (5) onto the motor housing (7) with precaution and turn the bearing cap so that
the two holes fi t on the pins in the motor housing (7).
- Make sure the rotor assembly is free and will turn.
- Check the position of the O-ring (6) in the motor housing (7).
- Plug the pump housing (4) in the motor housing (7) and tighten the 4 screws (9) uniformly.
9. Place the pump (7) in the lower tray (2) in this process pay attention to the three rubber supports (8).
10. Attach the upper shell (1) to the rear hook of the lower shell (2) and lock it into the front fl aps.
Maintenance
In order to prolong the service life of your pump and to keep it in good operating condition, it is recommended
to carry out maintenance and cleanup regularly. This can be done by everyone, quickly and easily.
See “Dismantling / Assembly”.
Servicing intervals:
- In the beginning check the proper function of your pump every day and if necessary, clean the pump
according to these instructions.
- Since servicing intervals (complete cleanup) will vary depending on pond pollution, repeat the periodic
service to your pump in accordance with the requirements given.
Should you determine that there are damaged or worn parts, do replace them. See “Spare parts”.
Important! When used in calcareous water, the rotor assembly (5) and the stainless steel split tube in
the motor housing (7) should be cleaned at regular intervals.
Winter / Pump care
Protect your pump from freezing!
Take the pump out of your pond in autumn.
Clean the pump completely following the outlined instructions.
During the winter months store the pump in a tank fi lled with water to prevent the bearings from drying out.
Store the tank in a frost-resistant room.
