NOISE

The equivalent continuous A-weighted sound pressure level at a distance of 1 metre

from the pumpset does not exceed 70 dB(A).

COMMISSIONING

WARNINGS:

The motor casing can become very hot under normal operating

conditions, care should be taken to ensure it cannot be touched

during

operation.

Do not run pump without guards and terminal box lid correctly fitted.

The pump chamber must be full of liquid at all times. Seal damage

will result if the pump runs dry.

1. System

Flushing

Some pumps incorporate plastic components that must not come into

contact with solder flux, acid-based descalents or aggressive cleaning

agents. The pipework system should be flushed out prior to the pump

being connected, to ensure any contaminants/chemical residues and

foreign bodies are removed from elsewhere in the system.

2. Liquid

Supply

Always ensure that liquid storage capacity is adequate to meet the demand.

Ensure the pump chamber is full of liquid before starting the pump. Failure

to do this could result in seal damage. To ensure dry running does not

occur the pumps must be primed as described in priming section.

Do not

run pump dry.

3. Priming
a)

All

models

The pump must be primed (filled with liquid) before starting. Turn on liquid

supply, prime and vent the pump by unscrewing the priming plug (Fig. 15)

slowly until all air escapes and liquid emerges. Re-tighten the plug.
