swimming pool and the relevant cleaning and servicing operations.

Electric shock

risk

DANGER

To prevent possible injuries to people, avoid inserting hands into the mouth of the

pump if this is connected to the mains.

DANGER

Use the handle provided to transport or lift the pump. To use the pump in permanent installations with rigid pipes, to

install a check valve to avoid the fluid being re-circulated once the pump is stopped. The installation of a quick closing

fitting in a convenient position facilitates cleaning and maintenance operations.

The pumps of this series are not suitable for table fountains or aquariums. If these pumps are used in continuous mode for

ponds with fish, it is necessary to check them at regular intervals of 6 months (if the water contains aggressive substances).

It is also advisable to check the maximum dimension of particles recommended for the pump and take the necessary

measures to prevent the fish from being sucked into the pump.

DANGER

This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced

physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless

they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a

person responsible for their safety.

Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Ch. 4 Electric Connection - Start-up

Pump anchorage

Use the slots on the filter cap (see Fig. 2, pos. 1) to anchor the pump. Then, remove the inserts from the filter cap.

It is also possible to insert 3 screws in the widest section of the slots (see Fig. 2, pos. 2) and turn the filter cap

counterclockwise so that the screws keep the cap in place in the narrowest section of the slots (Fig. 2, pos. 3). After

fixing the filter cap, it is necessary to insert the pump in the related guides (see Fig. 3, pos. 4) and turn it

counterclockwise to fix it in place (Fig. 5).

Instructions for a safe pump start

The power cable should have a minimum section equivalent to that of H05 RN-F. To be able to use the pump outdoors,

it is necessary to use cable with a length of 10 m. The plug and connections should be protected by water splashes.

Before using the pump, always inspect it visually (especially power cable and plug). Do not use the pump if it is damaged.

If the pump is damaged, have it inspected by the specialised assistance service only.

Make sure that electric connections are protected from inundation.

Protect the plug and the power cable from heat, oil or sharp edges.

WARNING

Verify that the floating switch stops the pump as soon as the minimum level is reached.

Make sure that the floating switch is free to move.

(see also Fig. 7 and 8)

The pumps used in ponds, small lakes, fountains or similar installations or close to them should have a cut-out switch.

Contact a specialised electrician.

Grounding

The plug of the power cable has a double grounding contact, so that grounding can be performed by simply inserting the

plug.

The installer must make sure that the electric system is grounded

in accordance with the law in force.

WARNING Verify that the voltage and frequency of the electropump shown on the nameplate

correspond to those available on the mains.

DANGER

Electric shock

risk

DANGER

Electric shock

risk

Make sure that the electric system has a high-sensitivity circuit

breaker Ä =30 mA (DIN VDE 0100T739).

DANGER

Electric shock

risk

The power cable must be replaced by qualified personnel only.

Overload protection

FLOTEC VIP/FP series pumps have a built-in thermal protection switch. The pump stops if an overload condition

occurs. The motor restarts automatically after it has cooled down (see point 4 of the Troubleshooting section for

information on causes and corrective actions).

To start the pump, insert the plug in a 230 V alternate current socket.

ATTENTION: the pump runs as soon as the floating switch reaches the start-up level.

GB 3

The dimensions of the collection container should reduce to the minimum the number of starts per hour (see

LIMITATIONS - Technical data).

To use the pump for temporary applications, install a flexible pipe and connect it to the pump using a pipe holder. To

immerse the pump, use a rope and fix it to the handle.

The automatic FLOTEC VIP/FP model is equipped with a pre-set float switch (See fig.1) please increase or decrease

the free piece of float switch cable by making it sliding through the proper seat on the handlebar, when modifyng the

rating of float switch.

There can be particular requirements for pumps used in or next to pools, garden ponds or similar places.

Disassembly of the diffuser filter VIP

Disassembly of the diffuser filter: disassemble the diffuser filter only after removing the safety screw (See Fig. 3,

pos. 5).

Keep the pump motionless and turn the diffuser filter clockwise looking at the pump from the bottom. To reassemble the

diffuser filter, lubricate the O-ring with water and turn the filter counterclockwise (see Fig. 6).

1) THE ELECTROPUMP

DOES NOT PUMP WATER,

THE MOTOR DOES NOT RUN

2) THE PUMP DOES NOT

SUPPLY WATER BUT THE

MOTOR IS RUNNING

3) THE PUMP SUPPLIES A

LIMITED AMOUNT OF

WATER

4) INTERMITTENT

OPERATION

In ordinary conditions, FLOTEC VIP/FP series electropumps do not require any maintenance.

It may be necessary to clean the hydraulics or replace the impeller.

Hydraulics cleaning VIP (see Fig. 3, Fig. 4, Fig. 5, Fig. 6)

Disassembly of the filter cap: disassemble the filter cap only after removing the safety screw (See Fig. 3, pos. 6).

Keep the pump motionless and turn the filter cap clockwise looking at the pump from the bottom. To assemble the filter

cap, turn it counterclockwise (see Fig. 4).

If the filter cap is fixed on the base with screws, turn the pump clockwise in the direction of the handle to disassemble it

(See Fig. 5).

Ch. 5 Maintenance and troubleshooting

Pump storage instructions
