out on live electrical components, they should be
unplugged from the mains or the main switch turned
off and fuse unscrewed. A motor protection switch is
to be provided.
Basically, all work on the pump or pump unit should
only be carried out when the pump is stationary and
not under pressure. All parts must be allowed to re-
turn to ambient temperature. Make sure that no-one
can start the motor during such word. It is essential
that the procedure for stopping the system de-
scribed in the Operating Instructions is observed.
Pumps or pump systems that carry media that are
dangerous to health must be decontaminated before
being taken apart. Safety Data Sheets for the vari-
ous liquids handled. Immediately the work has been
completed, all safety and protective devices must be
replaced or restarted.
Under EC machinery Directives, every machine
must be fitted with one or more emergency com-
mand devices by which situations which represent
an immediate danger or which could later be dan-
gerous can be avoided.
If the emergency command device is no longer op-
erated after an emergency “off” switch has been
triggered, this must be maintained by blocking the
emergency command device until it is released
again. It should not be possible to block the device
without this triggering an emergency “of” switch. It
should only be possible to release the device
through an appropriate action; this release should
not start the machine up again
– it should only make
it possible to start it up again.
If the power supply is interrupted or restored after
being interrupted or if it is changed in any other way,
this should not cause any danger (e.g. start up with-
out control or unexpected, pressure hammer).
2. Applications and Technical Description
2.1. Applications
XYLEM disposal units SEKAMATIK 50 E and SEKAMATIK
50 D are used for pumping waste water, effluent or
groundwater, containing sludge or soft solids from rooms
which are below the sewer level.
The pumps must not be used for pumping of liquids con-
taining great quantities of abrasive solids, like sand or
stones. Before the pumping of chemically aggressive liq-
uids, the resistance of the pump materials must be
checked.
2.2. Product description
Smell-tight and watertight complete lifting station with one
or two pumps. The lifting station consists of a collecting
tank with all necessary ports for the connection of inlet
pipe, discharge pipe, air vent and manual diaphragm pump.
The disposal units SEKAMATIK 50 E and SEKAMATIK 50
D are equipped with a cutter system at the pump inlet which
cuts all soft solids to small particles, so that the liquid may
be pumped through small diameter discharge pipes of
50mmø.
The controllers incorporate contactors, a pc-board with
light-emitting diodes ( LEDs ) for indication of operating
condition and a level switch which, via a hose, is operated
by the liquid level in the collecting tank.
The LEDs indicate:
- Pump operation
- Phase sequence fault (three-phase only)
- Fault
- Alarm
A thermal switch incorporated in the motor windings will
protect the motor from overheating by cutting off the supply
to the pump via the controller.
A back-up accumulator maintaining the alarm signal in
case of supply failure is available as an accessory. The ac-
cumulator is fitted inside the controller via a plug and en-
sures that an alarm can be given within 15 hours after the
electricity supply has been switched off.
The accumulator is fully charged on delivery. The charging
time is approx. 100 hours. The accumulator is automatically
charged when the electricity supply is switched on.
Note:
Used up accumulators must be disposes of in ac-
cordance with local regulations.
Three-phase controllers incorporate a phase monitoring
function which does not, however, prevent the motor from
starting in the event of wrong phase sequence of the mains
connection.
In addition to the LEDs, the controller front cover features:
-
Function selector with the positions: ‘Test’ (manuell
operation), ‘Aus’ (turn off)and ‘Auto’ (automatic opera-
tion).
- On/off switch for built-in acoustic alarm.
SEKAMATIK 50 D (twin station)
The controller of SEKAMATIK 50 D automatically ensures
an even distribution of operating hours on both pumps by
changing the starting sequence after each pump stop.
When the liquid level in the tank reaches the start level,
one pumps is started. If the liquid level rises further, the
other pump is started as well. This pump will run until its
stop level is reached. The operating pump will stop, when
the lowest stop level is reached.
If the liquid level continues to rise when both pumps are
operating, an alarm is given until the liquid level is lowered
below the alarm level.
