Hang the pump by passing the rope through the hole provided (see figure 5). Do not hang the pump by the handle. Do not install check valves near the pump delivery (distance less than 1 meter (3.28ft)). The pump already has a built-in check valve on delivery. It is recommended to install a small auxiliary tank (0.5 - 2 liters) that can be ordered as an accessory. If you want to install an additional non return valve it is recommended to position it downstream from the auxiliary tank.

Do not subject the motor to excessive starts per hour. It is strictly recommended not to exceed 20 starts per hour. It is advisable to use pipes having a minimum diameter of 1’’, to avoid the decrease of pump performance. The maximum submersibility of the pump depends on the length of the power cable: 12m (39.4 ft) in the case of a cable 15m (49.2 ft) long.

The pump has an air vent valve. This valve allows the pump to prime in a very short time. If the water level is lower than the valve level, some water may escape from the vent valve.

Install the pump so that the pump suction is at least 1 m (3.28ft) above the bottom of the well to prevent the intake of sand and impurities. Use rigid metal pipes to hang the pump and secure the pipes with brackets at the top of the well.

The minimum dimensions for the pump passage in the collecting tank must be greater than diameter 160 mm (6.7 in). Hold the pump slightly up from the bottom to avoid possible noises/vibrations transmitted to the tank. The pump will make noise if it is placed on the bottom of the tank. To avoid obstruction of the suction passages, it is recommended to check periodically that no dirt has accumulated in the collection trap (leaves, sand, etc.).

After connecting the pump to the mains, the pump motor is switched off and the non-return valve is at rest: if this is not the case, the pump stops, and the motor will never start

In the normal case, however, the pump behaves as follows:

• If the hydraulic circuit upstream from the pump has a pressure higher than CUT-IN, the pump motor does not start, the priming is finished regularly.
• If the circuit is not under pressure (P<CUT-IN), the pump motor is started. In this case,

o If the hydraulic circuit goes under pressure (P>CUT-IN) and there is no flow, for example because the delivery tap is closed, the motor is switched off 10 seconds after starting: the pump is primed.

o If there is no flow or pressure for 20 seconds (P<CUT-IN), the pump goes into DRYRUN alarm and is switched off: the pump is not primed.

o Finally, if there is flow, the pump is primed and runs normally.
