Pumps when properly installed and given due care in operation and maintenance should operate satisfactorily for a long period. All the pumps and motor are carefully installed and tested in our factory, so as to ensure the performance and features given in our catalogues. Regular operation of the equipment depends on its being used correctly and serviced periodically or regularly by our authorized service center. During unpacking and prior to installation, care must be taken when handling the pump to ensure that misalignment does not occur due to bending. The pumps should remain in the packing until they are placed in vertical position during installation. When the pump parts and motor are supplied as separate units. Fit the motors and pumps by skilled persons or follow the procedures as described below. If the pump has to be stored after use, it must be stored on a frost free location, or it must be ensured that the motor liquids are frost-proof. Page 4
2. SAFTEY INSTRUCTIONS 2.1 General information Before performing any actions detailed within this instruction, the Site Health and Safety instructions must read and fully understood. Whenever the equipment is operated, maintained or used in anyway, the procedures detailed within the Health and Safety Dossier (DHS) and any procedures detailed within these instructions shall be followed. The pump supplied has been designed with safety in mind, where as hazards cannot be eliminated; the risk has been minimized by the use of guards and other design features. Some hazards cannot be guarded against and the instructions below MUST BE COMPLIED WITH for safe operation. These instructions cannot cover all circumstances. It is the responsibility of the user of the equipment for maintaining safe working practices at all times. Before starting work, become familiar with the control devices and their functions. Do not subject the equipment to work, it could not be a reasonably support. Access to the equipment should be restricted to the personnel responsible for installation, operation and maintenance and they must be trained, only authorize and skilled labor from Prakash service center should handle their respective tasks. The plates concerning safety must be very clear. Handel the motor pumps carefully. When handling the motor pump use suitable lifting equipment with safety regulation and wear safety shoes and gloves. Use suitable cables of allowable length, marked with suitable cross-sections. Protect the cable from high temperatures, lubricants and sharp corners, as this may result in puncture of cables and case damage to the equipment and life. Never run the set dry as it may reduce the life of the equipment or damage. During the installation operations, pay attention to hanging loads and follow the corresponding safety rules. Make sure the control panel and the electrical system in accordance with current regulation. Do not tamper to remove the pump s guards. Operation of the equipment for the application other than for which it is supplied can increase the risk from hazards. Please consult Prakash pump skilled engineer before making such change in the application of the equipment. Improper installation, operation and maintenance of the product supplied could result in injury or death. Within the manual, safety instructions are marked with safety symbols. Page 5

FUNCTION AND FEATURE These types of model are suitable with independent floating impellers to provide easy starting and long life automatically adjusting to match pumping conditions for various applications. Heavy duty stainless steel inner and outer cover provides protection and accurate alignment of internal components. High quality shaft bearings provide low friction and high wear resistance. Strong stainless steel shaft ensures positive impeller and longer lasting life. 5. INSTALLATION Basic Our pump supplied is ready to connect with motor and cables. Parts or accessories are sometimes wrapped individually or fastened to the equipment. If any damage or losses have been incurred; promptly notify your Prakash pump representative. Along its entire length the well diameter must be wide enough to allow for passage of the pump with clearance all round. Handle the pump carefully; don t drop it or let it fall. The safe movement of the equipment is on the user responsibility and any lifting operation must be carried out by suitable trained and qualified personnel only. Pump installation Before installation, must check whether the cable is damaged, scratched, broken, etc. If they are faulty, must consult Prakash pump representative. The pumps are normally supplied pump disconnected; connect the coupling and pump-motor suction lantern. Page 6
Clean the surface to be coupled. Put the suction lantern of the pump in correspondence of the motor studs. Couple the grooved joint of the pump to the motor shaft. Screw in the nuts to the suction lantern, and then fix the crosswise starting from the one opposed to the cable. The torque recommended is 10 Nm for 4 motor. Connect the cable to the pump with the cable guard and place the filter on the suction lantern. When threaded connections are used, delivery pipes must be tightened to avoid any risks of the pump falling into the well. A safety rope or chain on non-perishable material should always be used to secure the pump. Attach the power cables to the delivery pipe with cable clamps placed at intervals of approximate 3 meter. Lower the pump into the well, making sure the feed cables are not damaged in any way during the operation. Install the pump with its axis placed at least 0.5 meter above the bottom of the well. Power supply Note: All work of an electrical system must be carefully carried out by skilled person only. Make sure the frequency and mains voltage correspond with the name plate data. Check whether the power supply is conformed to the stipulation of name plate before installation. Power supply connected with the pump must be assembled with ELCB, and the voltage fluctuation must be controlled within ± 10% of rated. For connection of cables in the well, use thermo-shrinking insulation sheathes or other system used for submerged cables. The operating temperature limiting the drop in voltage to at most 3%. The live wire should made dead before making the connection. The connection between the pump and the other part must be made using suitable material for submersed cables and in compliance with the current regulation from local electricity board authority. All checking of connection should be checked by appropriate instruments. Important While installing the motor pump, avoid impact, rubbing or anything else that can damage the power cable or puncture the cable leading to short-circuit. Direction of rotation The direction of rotation is clockwise, Rotation speed All the models are suitable for speed of 2900 rpm. Page 7

7. CONDITION OF USAGE For clean or slightly dirty water with maximum sand contents: 50 g/m³. Water temperature up to 60 C. Transfer medium: Clean cold water at ambient temperature 40 C. Pump should be submersed before starting. 8. MAINTENANCE Often check cable and duly replace the cable if it is found with fault of furcated. Absorbed current and head supplied by the pump must be checked at regular intervals. This procedure should be carried out frequently when water contains considerable quantities of sand. In the case of emergency systems, it is advisable to operate the pumps once a month in order to avoid the risk of blocking. 9. FAULT AND SOLUTIONS FAULT POSSIBLE CAUSES REMEDIES Pump does not start Too low voltage; Impeller blocked; Stator winding burn up; Capacitor damaged; in case of single phase motor. Absent phase; in 3Ø Too large resistance of cable Adjust voltage to ±10% of the rated; release it by inserting screw driver into the shaft at the fan side to remove the sundries; Repair; Replace capacitor; Check switch and cable connection etc; Check 3Ø wires. Use the proper cable; Pump delivers insufficient water or no water Pump stops suddenly Highly delivery head; The water level is low. Air locked; Pump worn off; Wrong rotation. Switch cut off or blowout; Impeller blocked; Stator winding burn up. Bad grounding or lightening strikes of pump. Lower the head; Throttle pump output or reset pump at lower depth if possible. Normal delivery may resume if pump is started and stopped at one minute interval; Replace pump or repair; Inverse two phase. Check power supply, replace fuse; Shut off power, clean obstacles; Repair (must consult the dealer and technician qualified). Page 9
