• The thermal contacts/thermistors must be in use.
• For FM-approved pumps, a leakage sensor must be connected and in use in order to

meet approval requirements.

Cables

These are the requirements to follow when you install cables:

• The cables must be in good condition, not have any sharp bends, and not be pinched.
• The sheathing must not be damaged and must not have indentations or be embossed

(with markings, etc.) at the cable entry.

• The cable entry seal sleeve and washers must conform to the outside diameter of the

cable.

• The minimum bending radius must not be below the accepted value.
• If using a cable which has been used before, a short piece must be peeled off when

refitting it so that the cable entry seal sleeve does not close around the cable at the
same point again. If the outer sheath of the cable is damaged, then replace the cable.
Contact a local sales and service representative.

• The voltage drop in long cables must be taken into account. The drive unit’s rated

voltage is the voltage measured at the cable connection point in the pump.

Earthing (Grounding)

Electrical Hazard:
• You must earth (ground) all electrical equipment. This applies to the pump equipment,

the driver, and any monitoring equipment. Test the earth (ground) lead to verify that it is
connected correctly.

• If the motor cable is jerked loose by mistake, the earth (ground) conductor should be the

last conductor to come loose from its terminal. Make sure that the earth (ground)
conductor is longer than the phase conductors. This applies to both ends of the motor
cable.

• Risk of electrical shock or burn. You must connect an additional earth- (ground-) fault

protection device to the earthed (grounded) connectors if persons are likely to come
into physical contact with the pump or pumped liquids.
