• If it is a 3-phase pump, transpose two phase leads.
• If it is a 1-phase pump:

Contact the local sales and service representative.

One or more of the valves are set in

the wrong positions.

• Reset the valves that are set in the wrong position.
• Replace the valves, if necessary.
• Check that all valves are correctly installed according to media flow.
• Check that all valves open correctly.

The impeller is difficult to rotate by

hand.

• Clean the impeller.
• Clean out the sump.
• Check that the impeller is properly trimmed.

The pipes are obstructed.

Clean out the pipes to ensure a free flow.

The pipes and joints leak.

Find the leaks and seal them.

There are signs of wear on the

impeller, pump, and casing.

Replace the worn parts.
