ENGLISH
Single mechanical seal with external quench :
External piping system or raised tank should be installed in the state of
the art. Pressure in the quench should not exceed 0,35 bar.
Back to back mechanical seals :
When using this type of mechanical seal arrangement the use of a
barrier fluid is mandatory. Compatibility between barrier fluid and
pumped media should be confirmed.
 If back to back pressurized mechanical seals are used : pressure in the
auxiliary system will be set at 2 bar minimum above the pressure
calculated in mechanical seal chamber. Check that this pressure will not
exceed max allowable pressure of MS on atmosphere side.
When high temperature fluid is pumped, the barrier fluid should
circulate even when pump is off.
 If back to back non pressurized mechanical seals are used : tank filled
with the barrier fluid will be placed at a minimum height of 0,7 m above
mechanical seal level.
Tandem mechanical seals :
Compatibility between barrier fluid and pumped media should be
confirmed.
After pipe work is done turn pump shaft by hand and check it turns
freely. If it appears that it is difficult to turn pump shaft, then check
forces applied by piping to pump casing. Positioning of piping should be
done again.
7.3 ELECTRICAL CONNECTION / EARTHING
Check that motor winding corresponds to site electric power
supply characteristics before electrical connections are performed.
Connecting a 230/400V motor on a 400V power supply or
connection of a 400/690V motor on a 690V power supply might
drive to motor destruction if terminal strip are positioned in a wrong
way.
Electrical connection should be performed by qualified personnel
only having necessary agreements and in compliance with local,
national and international regulations.
Equipments used in an ATEX zone will be connected in compliance
with CEI60079‐14. It is the responsibility of the end user to select
proper type and size of electric cable.
Respect motor manufacturer instructions to make electric motor
connection (refer to the instructions supplied with the motor. they
are usually indicated inside motor junction box). Sensors will be
connected in compliance with the instructions given in dedicated
instruction manual.
7.3.1 TERMINAL STRIP POSITIONNING FOR STAR
(Y) AND DELTA () CONNECTION (MULTI‐
VOLTAGES ELECTRIC MOTORS)
Multi‐voltage winding for voltages 230/400V and 400/690V :
6 wiring terminals :
To change motor direction of rotation reverse two phases on wiring
terminals. Connection of earthing terminal is mandatory.

components of the pumpset. Each part of the pumpset should be
connected to earth with a correctly calibrated bonding strap or cable
(motor winding, motor frame, coupling guard, pump baseframe).
7.4 USE OF A FREQUENCY INVERTER
available and known.
The electric motor that is supplied with the pump may be connected
under conditions to a VSD. Variable speed will be used to reach pump
required duty point on site. To ensure a reliable use of the equipment a
few precautions should be taken :
Electrical requirements :
 Variable frequency drive will not generate voltage peak higher than
850V (motor phases isolation) and dU/dt values higher than 2500 V/µs
(winding isolation). If those values can be reached, a filter should be
installed : ask inverter manufacturer for proper selection and motor
manufacturer for limit values.
 Choose a vector control inverter or use a quadratic V/F control
inverter.
 Check that motor nominal voltage is never exceeded.
Hydraulic requirements :
 A dedicated suction pipe should be dedicated to each pump used with
a negative suction head (suction lift).

LOWER VOLTAGE :  CONNECTION
HIGHER VOLTAGE : Y CONNECTION
Y /  STARTER :
Grounding of the complete pumpset will be performed with
special care. Earthing will avoid any electrostatic accumulation in
When pump is used with a variable speed drive, make sure that
the frequency inverter instructions and operating manual is
Power supply cable should comply to ATEX regulation. Ensure that
motor winding is equipped with CTP temperature sensors inside.
A physical barrier should separate power supply cables and low
voltage cables to avoid analog signal distortion.
