-
Correct positioning and fixing and the condition of the leading-in wires and isolation
components.
-
Machine and electric motor temperature. In case of irregularity, stop the machine
immediately and proceed with its repair.
-
Machine vibrations. In case of irregularity, stop the machine immediately and proceed
with its repair.
Because of the complexity of cases dealt with, the installation, use and maintenance instructions
in this manual do not intend to examine and deal with all possible service and maintenance
situations. If supplementary instructions are necessary or if specific problems arise, do not
hesitate to contact the machine distributor or the manufacturer.
The electrical installation must be performed by qualified personnel in electrical installations.
This equipment is intended for people with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities or
with no experience, unless they have had supervision or instructions on its use by a security
officer.
Do not allow children or adults to lean or sit on the device. Children should be supervised to
ensure they do not play with the equipment.

INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY
GENERAL
•
Assembly and installation of our pumps is only permitted in swimming pools or tanks
complying with regulation HD 384.7.702. In case of doubt please consult a specialist.
•
All pumps come with a two-drill foot to allow for them to be fixed in the floor by means of an
anchor. (Fig. 1).
TUBING
•
The connection of the pipe must be threaded into the mouths of the pump using the right
accessories (Fig. 2).
•
Impulsion tube installation is done totally perpendicularly and is well centred with respect to
the nozzle to be connected so as to avoid external pressure being exerted on the pump and
the tube. Apart from making assembly more difficult, this pressure could even break them (Fig.
2).
•
Suction tube installation is done at a slight angle of 2 % towards the pump, thus avoided
siphon formation (Fig.2).
•
For the correct operation of the pump, it must be primed until water reaches the surface of the
suction pipe.
POSITIONING
•
It is always advised mounting the pump below the water level in the pool or pond.
•
It should be ensured that the pump is free from possible flooding and it is given dry ventilation.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ALL ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS MUST CORRESPOND TO THE STANDARD:
EN 60335-2-41.
"All electrical devices at 230v single phase or 400v three-phase must be installed with a
minimum distance of 3.5 meters from the edge of the pool. For any modification of the filtration
system, the manufacturer must be informed without fail. "
ELECTRICAL UNIT
•
The electrical unit should have a multiple separation system with contact opening of at least
3 mm.
•
The cables used for the electrical connection must ensure the correct fixation to the motor
terminals.
•
In the three-phase motor a motor guard with heat-magnetic protection needs to be used.
•
A protection differential of 30mA is needed for any pump in order to protect from electrical
escapes (shown in diagrams).
•
Three-phase motors should be protected from overload by a safety switch for the motor.
•
We recommend using a connection cable type H07 RN-F type of an appropriate section
according to the power consumption of the pump motor and the number of drivers required
for the number of motor phases plus the ground cable.
•
Before connecting the motor, check the type of protection required.
•
For three-phase motors, adjust suitably the heat value according to the heat protector table.
For connection “
” set the protector at the highest indicated value. For connection “
” set the
protector at the lowest value.
•
Check the correct arrangement and connection of the earth wire in the equipment installation.
•
It is very important to keep to the installation and electrical connection conditions. Should they
not be heeded, the pump manufacturer does not accept any responsibility and considers the
guarantee void.
•
The motors are subject to EEC standards with IP-55.
•
Special installation regulations may exist.
•
The main cable can only be connected by qualified and authorised personnel.
•
Incorrect mains connection could result in death.

START-UP INSTRUCTIONS
QUESTIONS PRIOR TO START-UP
•
The pumps can never work without having been previously filled with water, as otherwise it
may damage the mechanical seal causing loss of water through it.
•
Check that the voltage and power of the mains correspond to those determined in the
nameplate of the pump.
•
In three-phase motors check that the motor rotation direction is correct, by means of the fan
located in the rear part of the motor, seen through the peephole in the fan cover. (Fig.6)
•
Check that the pump axle turns freely.
START-UP
•
Open all valves and connect the motor.
•
Wait a suitable time for tubing auto-priming to take place.
