To avoid this danger, the smallest flow

must run through the pump. We ensure

this by installing a bypass or a

circulation to the vessel etc on the

pressure side of the pump. The flow

running through the pump must always

amount to 10% of the flow at the best

working point. We can find the flow and

flow height written on the display plate

with the description of the pump.

On the pressure side of the piping

system, the system should be balanced

to prevent the occurrence of vacuum.

This is implemented with a special pipe

of diameter 25 mm that is installed

above the highest point of the reservoir

surface level.

• When filling the system with the

medium we must ensure that the

suction piping and the pump are filled

with the medium and all the air is bleed

out. The lock valve from the suction

side, the inflow and outflow pipes, and

the lock valve for vacuum equalising

should all be opened, all the while

controlling the values of the medium

flow, and close the sealing lock fittings.

• The pump may be

installed in an explosion

hazardous area II, but it is

compulsory to additionally

protect the pump against dry

running. This can be done, for

example, with the control of the

pump differential pressure or the

nominal motor current. The pump

should only be used for pumping a

mixture of water and glycol. The use

of solvents is not permitted, as they

could damage the seals.

Connecting

electrical

power

Connection to electricity can

only be done by and

electrician! It is necessary to comply

with the VDE regulations 0100 and for

EX- protection 0165.

Compare the network voltage to the

information on the factory display plate

and choose the right settings.

When connecting, consider the

technical conditions for connecting

to the local supplier of electrical

energy.

We recommend a device for protecting

the motor.

6.2 Connecting the motor

Connect the motor according to the

connection scheme shown in diagram

3.

Diagram 3: Connection Y (high

voltage) and connection ∆ (low

voltage).
