gested for parallel operation.

6 System Setup and Operation

Precaution
WARNING:
• Always wear protective gloves when
handling the pumps and motor.
When pumping hot liquids, the
pump and its parts may exceed
40°C (104°F).
• The pump must not run dry as this
can result in the destruction of the
bearings. Fill the system correctly
with liquid and vent the air before
first start-up.
NOTICE:
• Never operate the pump with ON-OFF valve
closed for longer than a few seconds.
• Do not expose an idle pump to freezing condi-
tions. Drain all liquid that is inside the pump.
Failure to do so can cause liquid to freeze and
damage the pump.
• The sum of the pressure on the suction side
(water mains, gravity tank) and the maximum
pressure generated by the pump must not ex-
ceed the maximum working pressure that is al-
lowed (nominal pressure PN) for the pump.
• Do not use the pump if cavitation occurs. Cavi-
tation can damage the internal components.

6.1 Configure the pump settings

Change the pump settings using one of the follow-
ing approaches:
• User interface
• Bus communication

(available only on ecocirc XLplus)
• Wireless communication

(available only on ecocirc XLplus)
6.1.1 Change the communication
parameters
Change pump communication parameters. See
Figure 13 .
1. Switch off the pump.
Wait until the power indicator switch-off be-
fore continuing.
2. Switch on the pump.
3. When the display shows COMM (COM)
press the parameter button (3) to enter inside
the communication menu.
4. Select one of the three values with setting but-
ton.

6. Edit the values using setting buttons.
7. Press the parameter button to confirm and
store the new values.
8. Press mode button to exit the submenu.
If no buttons are pressed for 10 seconds, then the
pump exit the current menu and continue start-up
procedure. All the parameters that are changed
without confirmation are restored at previous state.

6.1.2 Change the control mode

The pump can be controlled by a BMS
management system) or other devices through the
RS-485 communication port via Modbus or BAC-
17
net protocol.
The following instruction is used when making the
change on the user interface. See
• Press the operating mode button.
• The operating modes are cyclically changed by
the pressed button.

6.1.3 Change the set point

See Figure 13
