the 3-phase pump system must be installed with motor thermal overload
protection. Failur
e to install the 3-phase pump system without the specied
motor thermal overload protection could result in permanent damage to the
pump if subjected to sustained overload or fault conditions, e.g. a block
exhaust.
Furthermore, the pump housing surface temperature could reach levels
greater than 105 °C without this protection.

6.7.1Electrical supply connection
CAUTION: PUMP DAMAGE
The 3-phase pump system is delivered congured for high voltage use. High
voltage is dened as: 380 ‑ 415 V/50 Hz and 460 V/60 Hz. Make sure that the
pump is correctly congured for the electrical supply voltage and frequency. If not,
the embedded 3-phase motor within the pump can be damaged.
The 3-phase pump system is not designed to be powered directly from a variable
speed drive (VSD) using inverter technology. The direct use of inverter technology
will lead to increased heating within the pump system, resulting in long term
damage to the pump.
3-phase power must be connected to the 3-phase pump system. The
overall 3-phase cable must include 3 live wires and a protective earth (PE)
ground wire.
In addition to the primary 3-phase power supply connection to the pump,
the pump must also be earthed via the secondary earth connection on the
front of the pump housing using a M5x10 screw with a shake proof washer,
refer to
for more details.
The specication of this secondary earth wire must also meet the above
mentioned requirements.
