6. Product introduction
6.1 Product description
The SQF range of submersible pumps comprises two pump technologies:
•
helical rotor pump for high heads and low flow rates (3")
•
centrifugal pump (3" and 4").
SQF pumps are equipped with the Grundfos MSF 3 submersible motor.
6.1.1 Built-in motor protection
The product incorporates protection of the motor against the following situations:
•
dry running
•
voltage surges up to 6000 V. In areas with high lightning intensity, external lightning protection is required.
•
overvoltage
•
undervoltage
•
overtemperature.
In case of overload, the built-in overload protection will stop the pump for 5 minutes. After that period, the pump will automatically attempt to
restart.

6.1.2 Dry-running protection
If the pump is running and the liquid level in the borehole, tank or basin is drawn below the level sensor, the dry-running protection will stop the
pump to ensure that it is not damaged. A level sensor fixed on the power cable ensures that the pump operation stops before dry running
occurs.
After a stop caused by dry running, the pump is automatically reset when the level sensor is again submerged in the liquid, and the pump will
restart after 5 minutes.
6.2 Intended use
