Before installing the pump, ensure that moving parts rotate freely. To do this, proceed as follows: remove the fan cover from the seat of the rear engine cover, unscrewing the blank nuts according to the installation method. Manually operating the fan, turn the rotor shaft a few revolutions. If this is not possible, proceed to disassemble the pump body by loosening the nuts to check for any foreign bodies inside. Proceed in the opposite direction to that described for assembly.

It depends on the motor power. The pump for power ratings up to and including 7.5 kW can be installed either vertically or horizontally. For powers exceeding 7.5 kW, the pump must be installed in a vertical position. The electro pump must be fitted in a well-ventilated place, with an environment temperature not exceeding 50°C. As they have degree of protection IP55, the electro pumps may be installed in dusty and damp environments. If installed in the open, generally it is not necessary to take any steps to protect them against unfavorable weather conditions. If the unit is installed in a location where there is a risk of explosion, the local regulations on "Ex" protection must be respected, using only suitable motors.

Before starting, it is essential to fill the system with water and to vent the air. Vent the residual air from the pump body via the venting tap until only water comes out. This is to ensure that the mechanical seal is well lubricated and that the pump starts running smoothly immediately. Power up and check the correct direction of rotation which, looking at the motor from the fan side, should be clockwise. The check should be carried out after the pump has been powered up by acting on the main switch with a fast start-stop sequence. If the direction of rotation is reversed, invert any two-phase leads, after having isolated the pump from the power mains. When the hydraulic circuit has been filled with liquid, gradually open the delivery gate valve to the maximum permissible opening. The energy consumption of the motor must be checked and compared with the value on the data plate, especially if the pump was intentionally equipped with a motor with reduced power (check the design specifications). With the electric pump in operation, check the supply voltage at the motor terminals, which must not differ by +/- 5% from the rated value.
