POSSIBLE REMEDIES
1a) Check that the mains frequency and voltage are suitable.
1b) Connect the power supply cable correctly. Check the
setting of the thermal overload protection.
1c) Check the power supply and make sure that the pump
shaft is turning freely. Check the setting of the thermal
overload protection.
1d) Replace the fuses, check points a) and c)
1e) See "Blocked pump" instruction booklet
1f) Repair or replace the engine.
2a) Unblock the pump by using a screw driver to turn the
relevant notch on the back of the shaft.
2b) Remove any solid foreign bodies inside the impeller
2c) Replace the bearings.
3a) Release the air from the pump using the delivery control
valve.
3b) Check which part is not tight and seal the connection.
3c) Clean or replace the bottom valve and use a suitable
suction pipe .
3d) Clean the filter, if necessary, replace it . See point 2b)
also.
4a) Use pipes and accessories suitable for the specific
application
4b) Clean the impeller and install a suction filter
4c) Replace the impeller
4d) Replace the impeller and the pump casing
4e) Perform the opening and closing manoeuvres through the
feeder gate
4f) The pump is unsuitable
4g) Invert the electrical connections in the terminal board
5a) Replace the bearings
5b) Check that the mains voltage is right
In cases 6a), 6b) and 6c), replace the seal
6a) Make sure that the pump casing is full of liquid and that all
the air has been expelled.
6b) Install a suction filter and use a seal suited to the
characteristics of the liquid being pumped.
6c) Choose a seal with characteristics suitable for the specific
application
6d) Wait for the seal to adjust to the rotation of the shaft. If the
problem persists, see points 6a), 6b) or 6c).
