or negligence.
WARNING: This equipment must not be used by children or persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental abilities, or lacking in experience and expertise, unless supervised or
trained.
WARNING: Children may not use the equipment and must not play with the pump or in the
near vicinity.
WARNING: For all normal operations of installation/commissioning and functioning of the
machine it is not necessary to remove the protective devices (motor fan cover).

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 externally that the packing is free from damage. If the product appears to be damaged, inform
the reseller immediately. The pump should not be exposed to unnecessary shocks and impacts.
2.2 Contents of packing
The packing contains the operating and installation manual and the electric pump.

HORIZONTAL / SELF-PRIMING MULTI-STAGE PUMPS

3 STORAGE AND HANDLING
3.1 Storage:
Storage temperature: from -5 °C to +40 °C.
The electric pump must be kept indoors in a dry place, away from heat and protected from dirt and
vibrations.
3.2 Handling
:
WARNING: Observe the accident prevention regulations in force. 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 to identify suitable lifting equipment. The weight is
indicated on the pump data plate.
There are two possible methods for handling the pump:
1) Where indicated, remove the cap and screw on a lifting eyebolt suitable for the weight involved.
Warning: The eyebolt does not correspond to the centre of gravity (see fig. 1-C).
2) Position the hoist cables as shown in (fig. 1-A) and (fig. 1-B).
Take the pump out of its packing and check that it is in good condition.
Check also that the plate data correspond to those required. In the event of any anomaly, contact the
supplier immediately, reporting the nature of the defects.
4 GENERAL INFORMATION
4.1 General description
This product is a non self-priming, close-coupled, multi-stage, horizontal pump, with an electric motor.
The pump can pump hot or cold water. The metal parts in contact with liquid are made of stainless
steel.
Pump identification code
15 / 03 I 015 T 5 E1
Permitted use
• The pump is suitable for:
• Civil and industrial water distributions systems,
• Irrigation,
• Water treatment,
• Washing systems,
• HVAC (heating and cooling)
Non-permitted use
The pump is not suitable for:
• Pumping liquids not compatible with construction materials.
• Pumping dangerous liquids (e.g. toxic, explosive, inflammable or corrosive liquids),
• Pumping liquids for human consumption other than water (for example wine or milk),
• Pumping liquids containing abrasive, solid or fibrous substances,
• Working outside of the rated capacity range specified on the data plate.
Examples of improper installation:
• Environments with explosive or corrosive atmospheres,
• Outdoor installations without protection from the weather (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 injuries and material damage. Misuse of the
product renders the warranty void.
Special use:
Contact the sales and service office:
• If the pump is used to pump liquids with viscosity or density greater than water (a motor with
proportionately higher power should be used),
• If the water to be pumped has been chemically treated (softened, chlorinated, demineralised
etc.),
• In any other situation other than those listed for permitted use.
4.2 Technical data
4.2.1 Temperature of the liquid
Pumped liquids must remain within certain temperature limits:
• with EPDM seals (standard versions): from -15°C to +110°C (EH) and from 0°C to +35°C (EHsp),
• with VITON/FKM seals (special versions): from -10°C to +110°C (EH).
If the pump is intended for uses provided for by CEI EN 60335-2-41 the upper temperature limit, for
any combination of materials, is +90°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 capacity to cool. Below is a
non-binding chart of motor capacity percentage based on altitude or temperature (see Fig. 4).
