  woodskellyAug 16, 2025
  If the motor protection of your Speck pumpen Water Pump is triggered, it could be due to several reasons: * There may be a short-circuit in the motor winding. Check the motor winding. * The motor protection switch might not be correctly set or is defective. Check the setting or replace the switch. * The motor may be overloaded. Check and reduce the operating liquid flow rate. * There could be excessive backpressure in the outlet nozzle. Reduce backpressure. * There might be an excessive share of liquid in the suction flow. Reduce the share of liquid. * The suction-side fitting may be blocked. Open the suction-side fitting.

Why is my Speck pumpen VH 600 Water Pump motor consuming excessive power?
- S
  Seth McfarlandAug 20, 2025
  Excessive power consumption in your Speck pumpen Water Pump motor can occur due to: * Motor overload: Check and reduce the operating liquid flow rate. * Excessive backpressure: Reduce backpressure in the outlet nozzle. * Excessive share of liquid: Reduce the share of liquid in the suction flow. * Blocked suction-side fitting: Open the suction-side fitting. * High density/viscosity: Use an operating liquid complying with the density recommended in the data sheet. * Impeller rubbing: Disassemble the pump and properly set the inter casing/impeller gap size. * Pump contamination/calcification: Flush, descale, or disassemble the pump and clean it.

Why is my Speck pumpen VH 600 Water Pump not producing vacuum?
- L
  Laura MerrittAug 27, 2025
  If your Speck pumpen Water Pump is not producing vacuum, it could be due to: * A lack of operating liquid. Check the operating liquid supply. * A leak in the suction pipe. Check and seal the suction pipe and connections. * The wrong direction of motor rotation. Check the direction of rotation and swap the 2 phases if necessary.

Why is my Speck pumpen VH 600 not running smoothly?
- R
  Ryan HoltAug 31, 2025
  If your Speck pumpen Water Pump isn't running smoothly, here are some possible causes: * Excessive operating liquid flow rate: Reduce the operating liquid flow rate. * Overload in the pipe system: Check the pipe connections, pump fixation, and bearing clearance of the pipe clamps. * Air pocket in the pipe: Change the pipe system layout. * Pump distorted/improperly adjusted: Check and re-adjust the pump. * Resonance vibrations in the pipe system: Check the pipe connections and, if required, use a compensator. * Imbalanced impeller: Balance or replace the impeller. * Deposits on the impeller: Clean or replace the impeller. * Defective pump or motor bearing: Replace the pump or motor bearing.

Why is my Speck pumpen Water Pump making a strange noise?
- J
  jesus28Sep 8, 2025
  Strange noises from your Speck pumpen Water Pump can result from: * Pump cavitation: Install an anti-cavitation valve or equip the suction pipe with a ventilation valve. * Excessive steam: Reduce the share of steam or provide for condensation upstream the vacuum pump. * Suction-side fitting closed: Open the suction-side fitting or provide for cavitation protection. * Excessive operating liquid flow rate: Reduce operating liquid flow rate.
