CAUTION
Risk of damage due to vibrations! Incorrect alignment can lead to vibrations.

Vibrations can damage or destroy individual components.

• Carefully align the pump unit until all measurement results are within the permissible

range.

6.7.3

Laser alignment of the pump unit

Proceed per manufacturer's recommendations for proper laser alignment instructions.

6.8

Electrical connection

DANGER

Risk of fatal injury due to electrical current!

Improper conduct when carrying out electrical work can lead to death due to electric
shock!

• Only use an electrical installer approved by the local electricity supplier to make the

connection.

• Observe the locally applicable regulations.

• Before beginning work on the product, make sure that the pump and drive are elec-

trically isolated.

• Make sure that no one can turn on the power supply again before work is completed.

• Make sure that all energy sources can be isolated and locked. If the pump was

switched off by a protective device, it must be secured against switching back on
again until the error has been remedied.

• Electrical machines must always be grounded. Grounding must be appropriate for

the motor and meet the relevant standards and regulations. Ground terminals and
fixation elements must be dimensioned appropriately.

• Connection cables must 

never

 touch the piping, pump or motor housing.

• If it is possible for persons to come into contact with the pump or the pumped fluid,

the grounded connection must also be fitted with a residual current circuit breaker.

• Observe the manufacturer’s installation and operating instructions for the motor and

accessories!

• During installation and connection work, observe the circuit diagram in the terminal

box!

CAUTION
Risk of property damage caused by improper electrical connection!

An inadequate mains design can lead to system failures and cable fires due to mains
overload! If the wrong voltage is applied, the pump can be damaged!

• Ensure that the current type and voltage of the mains connection correspond to the

specifications on the motor rating plate.
