Cause
The electric motor is
short circuit.
The motor overloads.
7.4 The electric pump starts, but
the thermal protector trips or the
fuses blow a short time after
Cause
The electrical panel is situ-
ated in an excessively
heated area or is exposed
to direct sunlight.
The power supply voltage
is not within the working
limits of the motor.
A power phase is missing. Check the
7.5 The electric pump starts, but
the thermal protector trips a varying
time after
Cause
There are foreign ob-
jects (solids or fibrous
substances) inside the
pump which have jam-
med the impeller.
The pumps delivery
rate is higher than the
limits specified on the
data plate.
The pump is overload-
ed because it is pump-
ing liquid that is too
dense and viscous.
The motor bearings
are worn.
7.6 The electric pump starts, but
the system's general protection is
activated
Cause
A short circuit in the electri-
cal system.
Remedy
Check the components
and replace as necessary.
Check the operating condi-
tions of the pump and re-
set the protection.
Remedy
Protect the electrical
panel from heat source
and direct sunlight.
Check the operating
conditions of the motor.

• electrical connec-
tion
Remedy
Contact the local sales and
service representative.
Partially close the on-off
valve down stream until the
delivery rate is equal or
less than the limits speci-
fied on the data plate.
Check the actual power re-
quirements based on the
characteristics of the
pumped liquid and replace
the motor accordingly.
Contact the local sales and
service representative.
Remedy
Check the electrical
system.
