Any repairs to the motor pump must be carried out by the manufacturer or by specialist personnel. If this is not respected, the
guarantee will be invalidated and the machine may become unsafe.
5.2 CHECKING PARTS SUBJECT TO WEAR
Before inspection and maintenance operations carefully read and apply the safety procedures indicated in
paragraphs 1.2 and 1.3
During programmed maintenance or at any time in which the performance of the motor pump should be reduced or if
vibrations and noise should increase, the hydraulic parts subject to wear must be checked. Original spare parts only
should be used. If the hydraulic part should be partially or totally blocked it should be cleaned thoroughly with a jet of high
pressure water. If necessary dismantle the hydraulic part referring to the exploded view in fig. 2 - 2/a
To restore the hydraulic characteristics of the motor pump (GRN - APN - GRP - APP) use the appropriate hexagonal spanner on
the grub screws inside the inlet hole which regulate the distance between the impeller and the shimming plate, which must be
between 0.3 and 0.5 mm.
6. MINOR PROBLEMS: CAUSES AND SOLUTIONS
FAULTS POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
motor does not turn
no voltage check the power supply line
automatic switch tripped reset the switch and establish the cause
impeller jammed establish the cause of the trouble and remove it
thermal protection cut in resets automatically (not on -EX versions)
motor functions normally but no
water is pumped
check valve jammed clean the valve and check its operation
blocked pipeline identify the obstruction and remove it
pump has reduced flow rate
impeller, valve or pipelines obstructed identify the obstruction and remove it
liquid level too low turn the pump off immediately
incorrect supply voltage
match the voltage to the values indicated on the
data plate
wrong direction of rotation (three phase motor) invert any two phases
thermal protector has cut in
impeller jammed identify the cause of the trouble and remove it
temperature of liquid too high contact your nearest zenit dealer
7. DISPOSING OF MOTOR PUMPS
In the event that is not considered economically viable to repair a worn or damaged motor pump, the motor pump and motor
must be disposed of in full compliance with local regulations.
To dispose of a motor pump proceed as follows:
- remove any oil in the chamber and dispose of in a specialised collection centre;
- separate the parts in plastic and rubber and dispose of in a specialised collection centre;
- arrange for the break-up of the metal parts.
Do not dispose of any motor pump component in the environment.
