15.2. SUBMERSED INSTALLATION WITH HOSE PIPE
ASSEMBLY AND SETTING AT WORK
Assemble the flanged hose-holder elbow on to the driving port so as to house the hose pipe and
turn the lifting handle. (Page 132)
The electric pumps must be positioned or fixed to a flat and compact base.
The chain used for lowering the electric pump into the pit must be fixed to the edge of the trap and
GB
to the hole in the casing of the pump, on the delivery port side.

TRANSPORT AND STORAGE

The electric pump is very heavy. It must be handled by the indicated points using suitable and approved tools.
ATTENTION During transport and storage, the electric pump must always be kept on the bearing frame or on the pump casing in a vertical
position and with the cable wound around the motor casing. This is the most stable position and protects the cable against possible
contacts or rubbing. Always check that the machine is stable in order to prevent it from rolling or dropping since this could damage
persons, property or the electric pump itself.
Never lift the electric pump by the power cables. Use the handle fixed to the cover of the motor casing (shackle in the hole
on the delivery port side).
WARNING
When the electric pump has been stored, it must be kept in a dry place at a temperature of less than 60°C prior to being used
for the first time.
WARNING
When the electric pump is stored after a period of use, it must be thoroughly cleaned with water and disinfected if necessary,
dried and kept in a dry place at a temperature of less than 60°C.
Before using the electric pump again, make sure that the rotor is free to turn before making the electrical connections, that the
motor's electrical insulation is undamaged and that the oil is at the right level.
If the electric pump is stored for a long period of time, turn the rotor every so often to prevent its seals and shims from jamming
(channel impellers).
If the pump is blocked by ice, immerse it in water until it has completely thawed. Do not opt for other, faster methods as the
machine could be damaged. Make sure that the pump is in a perfect condition and conduct the inspections described above
before use.

17. PRELIMINARY INSPECTIONS

ATTENTION The electric pump may only be installed after a few simple inspections have been made.
1. The electric pump is supplied ready for use with the correct amount of oil in the oil chamber. After a
long period at a standstill, check that there is the right quantity of oil in the "oil chamber" (consult the
relative "OIL CHANGE" paragraph).
2. Check that the rotor is free to turn by working on the impeller through the suction mouth.
3. Connect the powering cables to the Control Panel (see paragraph 18).
The terminals of the power cable are marked with international IEC codes. The electric pump will only
turn in the right direction if the terminals are correctly connected to the L1(u), L2(v), L3(w) line. If the
installed unit is visible during the starting phase, it will be subjected to a kick-back in an anti-clockwise
direction (see Fig. 1).
