OPERATING AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
ELECTRIC BILGE PUMPS KBS SERIES
1. PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
ENG
1) The body of motor and pump is made of rigid cast iron for long-lasting durability.
2) Greatlyincreased maximum submersion depth due to double mechanical seal resistant to high pres-
sure (0.5 Mpa).
3) Effective motor cooling due to discharge channel cast as part of the motor housing. Space economy
by a top outlet.
4) Discharge 50 mm (2") to 150 mm (6"), motor 1,5 kw (2Hp) to 11 kw (15 Hp).
5) Hermetically sealed motor equipped build.in thermal protection.
6) Motor is dry type submersible induction motor ( 2 poles )
2. WORKING CONDITIONS
1) The supply voltage should be within ± 5 % os the rated voltage.
2) To use the pump, the water temperature should be between 0ºC and 40ºC.
3) The pump should be used to pump fluids such as oil, salt water, or organic solvents.
4) The pump must never be used to pump explosive liquids and should not be operated in an area from
whom explosive elements might be present.
5) The pump must not be used in a partially disassembled state.
6) Maximum submerion depth: 50 m.
3. BEFORE FIRST USE
Check the following points after receiving the pump.
1) Check the pump for damage that may have occurred during shipment.
2) Inspect the pump for any cracks, dents, damaged threads, etc.
3) Check power cord ( and seal minder cord, if installed) for any cutss or damage.
4) Check for, and tighten any hardware that appears loose.
5) Carefully read all tags, decals and markings on the pump.
6) Important: Always verify that the pump nameplate, amps, voltage, phase, and HP ratings match ypur
control panel and power supply.
7) Using a megger tester, measure the resistance between each of the core wires and the ground wire
(green) to verufy the insulation resistance of the motor.
Insulation resistance reference value=20MΩmin
