Installation and electrical connection
⇒ Adhere to the information for operating fluid type and quantity! When re-using
operating fluid, the quantity must also be checked and adjusted, if necessary!
7. Clean the screw plug, replace the seal ring, and screw it back in. Max. tightening
torque: 8 Nm (5.9 ft lb)!
NOTICE
Pumping problems due to water level being too low
If the fluid is lowered too much, separation of the volume flow may occur. Furthermore,
air cushions may form in the hydraulic system, resulting in undesirable behavior during
operation. The minimum permissible water level must reach up to the upper edge of the
hydraulics housing!
For wet well installation the pump is installed in the fluid. For this purpose a guide system
must be installed in the pump chamber. On the pressure side, the on-site pipe system is
connected to the guide system and on the suction side to the pump. The connected pipe
system must be self-supporting. The guide system must not support the pipe system!
CAUTION! If the motor emerges during operation, adhere to the operating mode for
non-immersed operation (S2-15, S3 10 %*)!
* If the required cooling of the motor is ensured before a re-activation, the operating mode
S3 25 % is permissible! To ensure the required cooling, the motor must be completely im-
mersed for at least 1 minute!

3. Lower the pump until the pump is mounted on the guide system and is automatically
coupled. CAUTION! When lowering the pump, hold the power supply cables slightly
taut!
4. Loosen the lifting equipment from the lifting gear and secure it at the chamber outlet
against falling.
5. Have the power supply cables routed into the chamber by a qualified electrician and
route it outside properly from the chamber.
▶ Pump is installed, the qualified electrician can carry out the electrical connection.
