Backflow
Waste water flowing back from the sewer into the
connected drainage piping
Certificate of decontamination
A certificate of decontamination is enclosed by the
customer when returning the product to the
manufacturer to certify that the product has been
properly drained to eliminate any environmental
and health hazards arising from components in
contact with the fluid handled.
EN 12050-2
European Standard for waste water lifting units
which are used to dispose of faeces-free waste
water occurring below the flood level of buildings
and sites. It defines general requirements as well
as principles of construction and testing.
Flood level
Maximum backflow level of waste water in a
drainage system
Hydraulic system
The part of the pump in which the kinetic energy
is converted into pressure energy
Pump
Machine without drive, additional components or
accessories
Pump set
Complete pump set consisting of pump, drive,
additional components and accessories
Submersible motor pump
Submersible motor pumps are floodable, closecoupled units which are not self-priming. The
pumps are usually operated completely
submerged. They may be operated outside the
fluid for short periods of time, until the minimum
fluid level has been reached.
Waste water
Water consisting of a combination of water
discharged from households, industrial and other
businesses as well as surface water.

2.3 Intended use
▪ The pump (set) must only be operated within the operating limits described in
the other applicable documents.
▪ Only operate pumps/pump sets which are in perfect technical condition.
▪ Do not operate the pump (set) in partially assembled condition.
▪ Only use the pump to handle the fluids described in the data sheet or product
literature of the pump model or variant.
▪ Never operate the pump without the fluid to be handled.
▪ Observe the minimum flow rates indicated in the data sheet or product literature
(to prevent overheating, bearing damage, etc).
▪ Observe the maximum flow rates indicated in the data sheet or product
literature (to prevent overheating, mechanical seal damage, cavitation damage,
bearing damage, etc).
▪ Do not throttle the flow rate on the suction side of the pump (to prevent
cavitation damage).
▪ Consult the manufacturer about any use or mode of operation not described in
the data sheet or product literature.
Prevention of foreseeable misuse
▪ Never open the discharge-side shut-off elements further than permitted.
– The maximum flow rates specified in the product literature or data sheet
would be exceeded.
– Risk of cavitation damage
▪ Never exceed the permissible operating limits specified in the data sheet or
product literature regarding pressure, temperature, etc.
▪ Observe all safety information and instructions in this manual.
2.4 Personnel qualification and training
All personnel involved must be fully qualified to transport, install, operate, maintain
and inspect the machinery this manual refers to.
The responsibilities, competence and supervision of all personnel involved in
transport, installation, operation, maintenance and inspection must be clearly
defined by the operator.
Deficits in knowledge must be rectified by means of training and instruction
provided by sufficiently trained specialist personnel. If required, the operator can
commission the manufacturer/supplier to train the personnel.
Training on the pump (set) must always be supervised by technical specialist
personnel.
2.5 Consequences and risks caused by non-compliance with this manual
▪ Non-compliance with this operating manual will lead to forfeiture of warranty
cover and of any and all rights to claims for damages.
▪ Non-compliance can, for example, have the following consequences:
– Hazards to persons due to electrical, thermal, mechanical and chemical
effects and explosions
– Failure of important product functions
– Failure of prescribed maintenance and servicing practices
