- Observe the flow direction arrow on the pump housing to ensure correct installation relative to the system flow. The integrated check valve will enforce this direction.
- Avoid placing excessive strain on the pump connections from misaligned piping.
3.3 Wiring Elettriku
- TWISSIJA: Disconnect power at the main circuit breaker before beginning any electrical work.
- Wire the pump according to the wiring diagram provided on the pump's terminal box cover and local electrical codes.
- Żgura ertjar xieraq biex tevita perikli elettriċi.
- Ivverifika li l-provvista voltage jaqbel mar-rekwiżiti tal-pompa.
4. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
Once installed and filled with liquid, the Grundfos UPS15-58FRC pump is ready for operation.
4.1 Start-up Inizjali
- Ensure the system is completely filled with water and properly vented to remove any air. Air in the system can damage the pump.
- Irrestawra l-enerġija lill-pompa.
- The pump will begin operating at the selected speed. Listen for unusual noises, which may indicate air in the system or an installation issue.
4.2 Għażla tal-Veloċità
