TECPUMP 900 (12 VDC) 2
Read this manual before installing or handling this kit.
INSTALLATION WITH OWN EQUIPMENT
- Before connecting the pump to the battery, check the supply is the same as that is described in the technical plate of the pump motor.
- If possible, connect the pipe to the pump through flanges. This system is better than those connected through threads as the pump does not suffer any tension.
- If the installation has a rigid pipe, install a section of, at least, 20 cm (7.9") of flexible pipe before and after the pump.
- If the pump is connected through threads, avoid to force the pump body. Any little displacement between the body and the motor can cause damages.
1. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
It is not suitable for the transfer of liquids of Class A and B with a flash point lower than 55 ºC (122 ºF)
2. WARNINGS
Please read these instructions carefully before using this product. The people who do not know the instructions must not use it.
This manual describes how to use the pump according to the project hypothesis, the technical specifications, the installation type, the use, the maintenance and the training relating
to the possible dangers.
The instruction manual must be considered as a part of the pump and keep it for future inquiries during all its working life. We suggest keeping it in a dry and protected place.
The manual reflects the technical situation when selling the pump and cannot be considered inadequate for the reason of being updated according to the new experiences. The
manufacturer reserves the right to update the production and the manuals without being forced to update the old ones.
3. SECURITY INSTRUCTIONS
3.1. Make the electric connection only with the qualified personnel following the applicable electric regulations.
3.2. Connect adequately to the earth. Use approved cables and electric equipment.
3.3. The broken down motors must be fixed in an authorized workshop or in our factory.
3.4. Check the packaging in the receipt of the goods and store it in a dry place.
3.5. Check the kit does not have any damage during their transportation or storage.
3.7. IMPORTANT
It is forbidden to use the pump in environments where there is the risk of suffering an explosion or a fire (defined according to law). In particular the pump must not
be used to pump liquids that, according to law, need explosionproof motors, i.e. not allowed uses with petrol, acetone, solvent... (Regulation references: IEC 79-10
International Regulation). Do not smoke near the pump or use it near a flame. This could cause an explosion and even the death.
3.8. ATTENTION: If the pump, the hose and the nozzle are outdoors in summer weather or hot countries, after the refuelling (once the pump is stopped), it is advisable to open the
nozzle in order to discharge the accumulated pressure of the hose.
Otherwise, the high sun temperature makes possible to create an overpressure because of the expansion due to the diesel dilation the pipes have, being able to cause a retainer or
mechanical element breaking of the pump and/or the meter.
If the pump was without operating in a place exposed to bitterly cold weather or ice, it would be necessary to empty the hoses and the pump body.
It would be also advisable to make this operation if the pump or the supply kit was without operating during a long time even though the temperature was normal.
3.9. If the hose connections are made with clamps, ensure they are well-tightened in order to avoid any air intake.
3.10. Please avoid spilling any type of liquid on the motor.
3.11. ATTENTION
The installer will be responsible of using the pipes with the adequate features. The inadequate use of the pipes could cause the
contamination and damages to the pump or people.
Check all the connections after the first installation and daily control they are not loosened. If necessary, tighten them. The connection
loosening could cause serious ecological and security problems.
3.12. ATTENTION
The pump must not be switched on before finishing its installation. It is completely forbidden to put the fingers or other parts of
the body into the holes: the pump has parts in motion. Before starting the pump disassemble or assembly, always switch it off and
disconnect it from the power supply in order to avoid accidental ignitions with the unprotected parts in motion.
