Installation and operating instructions SIE...BV/DIE...BV/PBE...BV
CAUTION! Risk of damage!
Risk of damage due to inappropriate handling.
• Only use lifting eyes on the motor for carrying the weight of the
motor and not for carrying the entire pump (Fig. 18).
• The pump is only to be lifted with approved load-bearing equip-
ment.
• Minimum axial distance between a wall and the fan cover of the
motor: free removal dimension of at least 200 mm + diameter of the
fan cover.
• Shut-off devices must always be installed in front of and behind the
pump in order to avoid the complete system from being drained when
the pump is inspected or replaced.
• Pipes and pumps should be installed in a stress-free condition. The
pipes must be fastened in such a way that the pump does not bear the
weight of the pipes.
• The bleed valve (Fig. 12, 13, 14; Item 1.31) must always face upwards.
• Every installation position except "motor facing downwards" is
allowed.
• The installation position with horizontal motor shaft is permitted for
the SIE...BV series only up to a motor power of 15 kW. A motor support
is not necessary.
• Only the installation position with vertical motor shaft is intended for
a motor power >15 kW.
• The electronic module must not face downwards. If required, the
motor can be turned after loosening the hexagon head bolts.
NOTE
After loosening the hexagon head bolts, the differential pressure sen-
sor is attached to the pressure measuring lines only. When turning the
motor housing, make sure that the pressure measuring lines are not
bent or kinked.
• The direction of flow must correspond with the direction arrow on the
pump housing flange.
NOTE
When pumping out of a tank, ensure that the fluid level is always high
enough above the suction port of the pump so that the pump never
runs dry. The minimum inlet pressure must be observed.
• When using the pump in air-conditioning or cooling systems, the
condensate which accumulates in the lantern can be discharged spe-
cifically via the existing holes.
NOTE
In the case of insulated systems, only the pump housing may be insu-
lated, not the lantern and motor.
The motors are equipped with condensation water holes, which are
sealed with a plastic plug at the factory to ensure protection class
IP 54.
• If used in air-conditioning/cooling systems, this plug must be
removed downwards so that condensation water can drain.
• With a horizontal motor shaft, the condensate hole must be posi-
tioned towards the bottom. If necessary, the motor must be turned
accordingly.
NOTE
If the plastic plug is removed, protection class IP 54 is no longer
ensured!
