WARNING : According to the machine directive 2006/42/EC, a pump and a motor purchased
separately and then coupled constitute a new machine. The person who sees to coupling is
responsible for all safety aspects regarding the combined unit.
2 PRELIMINARY INSPECTION
2.1 Delivery and packing
The pumps are supplied in their original packing, in which they should remain until the time of
installation. Check that the packing is free from damage.
If the product appears to be damaged, inform the retailer immediately. Take care not to bend the
pump when the packing has been removed: this may cause misalignment or damage to the pump
itself. The pump should not be exposed to needless shocks or impact.
2.2 Packaging contents
The packaging contains the product use and installation manual. In the case of an electric pump, the
packaging also contains the motor manual.
3 STORAGE AND HANDLING
3.1 Storage:
Storage temperature: from -5°C to +40°C
The pump and the motor must be kept in a dry, sheltered place, away from heat sources, dirt and
vibrations. If the pump has not been packed, it should be kept in storage vertically, to prevent any
misalignment.
3.2 Handling:
WARNING: Please observe the current accident prevention standards. Risk of crushing. The
pump may be heavy. Use suitable lifting methods and always wear personal protection
equipment.
Before handling the product, check its weight (see fig. 2) to identify suitable lifting equipment.
WARNING:
The eyebolts supplied with the motors should not be used to handle the whole
assembled electric pump (see fig.1.D).
For handling a pump with a motor of up to 4kW, use the belts wound around the pump head, taking special
care not to damage the side coupling covers in fig.1.A. For pumps with a motor equal to or over 5.5 kW, use
belts or chains attached to the lifting eyes on the motor flange as shown in fig.1.B.
WARNING : There is a risk that the pump may overturn during handling; make sure that the
pump remains in a stable position during handling.
If there is no motor, use a belt wound around the pump head, paying particular attention not to
damage the side coupling covers (fig.1.E), or the lifting eyes on the motor flange as shown in figure
1.F, if present. The eyebolts on the motor of the pumps must be used exclusively to handle the motor
alone (see fig. 1.C). Extract the pump from the packaging and check that it is in good condition.
Check also that the plate data correspond to those required. For any defects, contact the supplier
immediately, reporting the nature of the same.

Permitted Use
The pump is suitable for:
• Civil and industrial water distribution systems,
• Irrigation,
• Water
treatment,
• Washing systems,
• HVAC (heating and cooling)
Forbidden use
The pump is not suitable for:
• Pumping liquids not compatible with the product construction materials.
• Pumping hazardous liquids (for example toxic, explosive, inflammable or corrosive liquids),
• Pumping food grade liquids other than water (for example wine or milk),
• Pumping liquids containing abrasive, solid or fibrous substances,
• Working outside of the rated capacity field specified on the data plate.
Examples of unsuitable installation:
• Environments with explosive or corrosive atmospheres,
• Outdoor installations without protection from atmospheric agents (e.g. sun, rain, high or freezing
temperatures).
WARNING : Do not use this pump for inflammable or explosive liquids.
Misuse may create hazardous conditions and cause personal injury and material damage.
Misuse of the product may nullify the warranty.
Special use
Contact the sales and support service in the cases below:
• If the pump is used to pump liquids with viscosity or density greater than water (a motor with a
proportionately higher power should be used).
• The water to be pumped has been chemically treated (softened, chlorinated, demineralised etc.),
• In any other situation other than those listed under permitted use.
4.2 Technical data
4.2.1 Liquid temperature
Pumped liquids must remain within certain temperature limits:
• with EPDM seals (standard versions): from -30°C to +120°C
• with VITON/FKM seals (special versions): from -10°C to +120°C
4.2.2 Ambient temperature and altitude
In the case of ambient temperatures higher than +40°C, or the installation of the pump at an altitude
higher than 1,000 metres, the motor must not work at full capacity to avoid the risk of overheating.
Excessive ambient temperatures and low air density reduce the motor’s ability to cool down. In these
cases, it may be necessary to use a motor with a higher rated power. Below is a non-binding chart of
motor capacity percentage based on altitude or temperature (see Fig. 6/A).
