Stationary installation
With regard to the electrical connection in the case of stationary installation, please ensure an
adequate visibility and accessibility of the plug.
For stationary installation, please fasten the pump on a suitable, solid surface. To reduce vibration, it is
recommended to apply an anti-vibration material - for instance a rubble layer - between the pump and the
installation surface.
4.7.
Use of the pump for swimming pools, garden ponds and similar places
Operating the pump next to swimming pools, garden ponds and similar places is generally
only admissible if no persons are in contact with the water.
If the pump is used for swimming pools, garden ponds and similar places it has to be operated using a residual
current circuit-breaker (FI switch) with a nominal trigger current of ≤ 30mA (DIN VDE 0100-702 and 0100-738).
Please ask your electrical services provider whether your installation site complies with this condition. The pump
must not be used in such locations unless it is set up firmly and flood-proof, a minimum distance of two metres
away from the border of the water body and secured against falling into the water by a solid holding device. For
this purpose the device is to be bolted down firmly to the ground at the fastening points provided.
5. Electrical connection
The unit is equipped with a mains connection cable and a mains plug. It must only be replaced by qualified staff to
avoid any danger. Please do not use the mains connection cable to carry the pump, and do not use this cable to
pull off the plug from the socket, either. Protect the mains connection cable and mains plug from heat, oil or sharp
edges.
The values stated in the technical details have to correspond to the mains voltage. The person
responsible for installation has to verify that the electrical connection is earthed in accordance
with the applicable standards.
The electrical connection has to be equipped with a highly sensitive differential switch
(FI switch): ∆ = 30 mA (DIN VDE 0100-739).
Only use an extension cable with a cable section (3 x 1.0 mm²) and rubber sheath which at
least corresponds to that of the unit's own connection cable (see "Technical data", cable type)
and which is labeled with the relevant abbreviation according to the VDE (German Association
for Electrical, Electronic & Information Technologies). The mains plug and other connections
must be splash proof.
6. Putting into operation
The pump must only be operated in the performance range indicated on the type plate.
Any dry-running - i.e. the operation of the pump without and discharging any liquid - is to be
avoided since this will lead to the pump running hot. This may entail considerable damage to
the device. In addition, overheating bears the risk of injury by burning. If the pump has run hot,
please unplug the mains plug and allow the system to cool down.
Please do not expose the pump to moisture (e.g. when operating sprinklers). Do not expose
the unit to rain, either. Make sure that no dripping connections are located above the pump.
The pump should not be used in wet or moist environments. Make sure that the pump and the
electrical plug connections are arranged in a flood-proof place.
The pump must not be operated over any extended period of time with the withdrawal point
closed. The fuel nozzle is to be opened immediately following power-up of the pump. As soon
as tapping is finished, the pump should be switched off.
While the pump is running, nobody must be in contact with the liquid being pumped. Do not
operate the pump while you are in contact with water. The pump must not be moved during
operation and has to be under an interrupted supervision.
