RECOMMENDATIONS

6.1. It is essential to read this use and maintenance manual in order to correctly carry out the pump transport, installation, start-up, use, adjustment,
assembly, dismantling and servicing operations.
6.2. This manual forms an integral part of the supplied product. The purchaser shall ensure that all staff who, for various reasons, may use or service
the product become fully familiar with the contents of this manual.
GB
6.3. The electric pumps described in this manual are "not designed for domestic use" or similar. They must therefore be beyond the reach of children
or inexpert persons.
6.4. The instructions in this manual apply to the "standard" version of the electric pump. Similar electric pumps supplied "according to requirements"
(check for the job N° on the electric pump data plate) may or may not fully comply with the instructions herein.
6.5. The pump supplier shall not be held responsible for any damages to persons, animals or property caused by failure to strictly comply with all
the instructions in this manual.
6.6. The supplementary data plates supplied with the electric pump must be kept together with this use and maintenance manual in the vicinity of the
electrical equipment so that they can be quickly and easily consulted.
6.7. For safety reasons and to ensure compliance with the warranty conditions, the purchaser shall be forbidden to use the pump should this become
faulty or in the event of a sudden variation in the performances of the pump itself.
6.8. The purchaser shall be responsible for installing alarm systems, arranging for inspections and servicing operations able to prevent any form of
risk caused by electric pump malfunction.
6.9. Contact Caprari SpA or one of their authorized After- Sales Service Centers for any further information that may be required.
6.10. If the power supply cable breaks, immediately ask for a genuine Caprari spare specifying the code and serial numbers of the electric pump and
the type of cable required (auxiliary or power supply) in your request.
6.11. Apart from checking the rotation direction as described in paragraph 16, never ever connect the electric pump to the electricity main until the
pump itself has been installed in its system.

7.1. Construction of these electric pumps complies with EN1127-1, EN80079-36, EN80079-37, EN13980, EN60079-0, EN60079-1
specifications. Before the pump is installed, check that the flameproofing characteristics coded on the pump data plate conform
to the classification requirements of the area in which the pump is installed.
7.2. Do not work on cable glands or open the motor casing; these works are reserved to Caprari authorised workshops. The flameproof
joints cannot be repaired. It is possible to shorten the electrical cables while respecting a minimum length of 3000 mm
(EN60079-14).
7.3. The operative characteristics of these machines must comply with the features indicated on the data plate and in the enclosed
EX certificate.
7.4. The minimum head is at the top of the electric motor for machines operating in S1 service mode and above the pump casing for
electric pumps operating in S3 jogging mode (comply with the degree of intermittence indicated on the electric pump data plate
for each motor power rating).
7.5. It is obligatory to connect the thermal probes to the control equipment of the electric pump. Activation of the thermal probe must
shut off the power supplied to the electric pump. Resetting must not be automatic. It must only occur after a qualified technician
has inspected the machine.
7.6. It is forbidden to modify the machines or replace parts of the electric motors. Users are only allowed to replace components of
the wet part (numbered L1 to L19 of the Section in question) with identical genuine spares (same code or same initials on the part)
when these are worn through normal operation. Operations other than routine maintenance may only be carried out by Caprari S.p.A.
The class of screws used to assemble the flameproof casing must be A2-70 ISO 3506-1.
7.7 The optional conductivity sensor installed in the motor casing must only be used with a control device installed in the
panel that conforms to the requisites of the forecast potentially explosive environment.
7.8 The following bad functioning can be possible primer causes for explosion; consequently it is necessary to operate all
possible actions to avoid them:
- dry running of the pump or 0/Q capacity: foresee a pressure and/or capacity probe directly connected to the control
panel with manual restarting, as to avoid the pump operating in such conditions;
- pump shaft bearings damage: in case of increased vibrations and/or noise during operation, stop the pump and send it to
authorized Caprari workshop.
