During operation
WARNING
Amputation of limbs due to rotating components!
No persons must be present in the work area of the pump! There is risk of (serious)
injuries due to rotating components! No persons must be present in the work area of
the pump during start-up or operation.
WARNING
Risk of burns from hot surfaces!
Motor housing can become hot during operation. It may cause burns. Allow the
pump to cool down at ambient temperature after switching it off!
NOTICE
Delivery problems due to water level being too low
If the level of the fluid is lowered too much, the volume flow can be interrupted. Air
cushions can also form in the hydraulics, which can lead to inadmissible operational
behaviour. The minimum permissible water level must reach the upper edge of the
hydraulics housing!
When operating the pump, observe the locally applicable regulations on the following
topics:
▪ Work safety
▪ Accident prevention
▪ Handling electrical machines
Strictly adhere to the responsibilities of the personnel specified by the operator. All
personnel are responsible for ensuring that the responsibilities of the personnel and the
regulations are observed!
Due to their design, centrifugal pumps have rotating parts that are easily accessible.
Depending on the operating condition, sharp edges can develop on these parts.
WARN-
ING! This can lead to cuts and limbs may be severed!
Check the following at regular
intervals:
▪ Operating voltage (+/-10 % of the rated voltage)
▪ Frequency (+/-2 % of the rated frequency)
▪ Power consumption between individual phases (max. 5 %)
▪ Voltage difference between the individual phases (max. 1 %)
▪ Max. switching frequency
▪ Minimum water submersion depending on the operating mode
▪ Inlet: no air intake
▪ Level control device/dry-running protection: Switching points
▪ Quiet/low-vibration running
▪ All gate valves open

8.1
Personnel qualifications
▪ Operation/control: Operating personnel must be instructed in the functioning of the
complete system.
▪ Electrical work: A qualified electrician must carry out the electrical work.
▪ Installation/dismantling: The technician must be trained in the use of the necessary
tools and fixation materials for the relevant construction site.
8.2
Operator responsibilities
▪ Locally applicable accident prevention and safety regulations of trade associations.
▪ Observe regulations for working with heavy loads and under suspended loads.
▪ Provide the necessary protective equipment and make sure that the personnel wears it.
▪ Provide adequate aeration in closed rooms.
▪ Take immediate countermeasures if there is a build-up of toxic or suffocating gases!
8.3
Decommissioning
The pump is deactivated during decommissioning, but remains installed. This ensures
that the pump is always ready for operation.
