8.6 IO 113
IO 113 provides an interface between a Grundfos wastewater
pump equipped with sensors and the pump controller(s).
The most important sensor status information is indicated on the
front panel.
One pump can be connected to one IO 113 module.
Together with the sensors, the IO 113 provides a galvanic
isolation between the motor voltage in the pump and the
connected controller(s).
IO 113 can do the following as standard:
•
Protect the pump against overheating.
•
Monitor the status of these items:
– motor winding temperature
– leakage (WIO)
– moisture in pump.
•
Measure the stator insulation resistance.
•
Stop the pump in case of alarm.
•
Remotely monitor the pump via RS-485 communication
(Modbus or GENIbus).
•
Control the pump via a frequency converter.
Warning
IO 113 must not be used for purposes other than
those specified above.

8.7 Frequency converter operation
All SL1/SLV pump types are designed for frequency converter
operation to keep the energy consumption at a minimum.
To avoid the risk of sedimentation in the pipes, we recommend
that you operate the speed-controlled pump at a flow rate above
1 m/s.
For frequency converter operation, please observe the following
information:
•
Requirements must be fulfilled. See section
8.7.1
Requirements.
•
Recommendations ought to be fulfilled. See section
8.7.2
Recommendations.
•
Consequences should be considered. See section
8.7.3
Consequences.
8.7.1 Requirements
•
The thermal protection of the motor must be connected.
•
Minimum switching frequency: 2.5 kHz.
•
Peak voltage and dU/dt must be in accordance with the table
below. The values stated are maximum values supplied to the
motor terminals. The cable influence has not been taken into
account. See the frequency converter data sheet regarding the
actual values and the cable influence on the peak voltage and
dU/dt.

•
If the pump is an Ex-approved pump, check if the Ex certificate
of the specific pump allows the use of a frequency converter.
•
Set the frequency converter U/f ratio according to the motor
data.
•
Local regulations/standards must be fulfilled.
8.7.2 Recommendations
Before installing a frequency converter, calculate the lowest
allowable frequency in the installation in order to avoid zero flow.
•
Do not reduce the motor speed to less than 30 % of rated
speed.
•
Keep the flow velocity above 1 m/sec.
•
Let the pump run at rated speed at least once a day in order to
prevent sedimentation in the piping system.
•
Do not exceed the frequency indicated on the nameplate.
In this case there is risk of motor overload.
•
Keep the motor cable as short as possible. The peak voltage
will increase with the length of the motor cable. See data sheet
for the frequency converter used.
•
Use input and output filters on the frequency converter.
See data sheet for the frequency converter used.
•
Use screened motor cable if there is a risk that electrical noise
can disturb other electrical equipment. See data sheet for the
frequency converter used.
8.7.3 Consequences
When operating the pump via a frequency converter, please be
aware of these possible consequences:
•
The locked-rotor torque will be lower. How much lower will
depend on the frequency converter type. See the installation
and operating instructions for the frequency converter used for
information on the locked-rotor torque available.
•
The working condition of bearings and shaft seal may be
affected. The possible effect will depend on the application.
The actual effect cannot be predicted.
•
The acoustic noise level may increase. See the installation
and operating instructions for the frequency converter used for
advice as to how to reduce the acoustic noise.
