This manual aims to provide information and instructions essential to adequately

perform all activities related to the use of the product purchased. This manual, and

documentation, are intended to be viewed by all persons involved in the life cycle

of the booster set and therefore must be accessible to the user.

Compliance with all safety requirements is an obligation of the customer.

The following instructions and requirements relate to the standard operations; for

instructions, situations and events that are not covered in the present manual or

sales documents, contact our assistance service.

The installation must be designed and carried out only by qualified technicians;

Errors in the installation or use can cause serious damage to the equipment, the

user system and the people involved.

Do not make any action, maintenance, repairs or modifications that you do not

have specific knowledge or received detailed instructions. If doubts remain, after

consultation with the following paragraphs, surveyed Fluid Water Solutions Ltd. All

operations must be carried out while respecting the safety rules.

Remember that you respect the regulations in force in the country of

installation: if different rules are in force on the same topic, you should always

consider the more stringent requirements.

Our products have been manufactured in accordance with the applicable safety

standards in force for which it is recommended the use of all devices or notices in

order that the use does not cause injury to persons or damage to belongings.

Our products were designed for the specific use intended, THEREFORE ANY

INDICATED, EXEMPTS STRUART TURNER LTD FROM RISKS that may occur.

The modification of both mechanical and electrical parts of the machine is strictly

prohibited. The non-compliance exempts Stuart Turner Ltd from any responsibility.

The responsibility of any operation that has not been authorised in writing shall fall

upon the executor, inasmuch that they become the manufacturer.

READ THE INSTRUCTION MANUALS OF EVERY PUMPS, MOTORS, CONTROL

PANELS AND OTHERWISE OF ALL COMPONENTS. FOLLOW THE PROVISIONS OF

THE SAFETY AND PERFORM THE PLANNED MAINTENANCE RECOMMENDED IN THE

INSTRUCTION MANUALS!

•

The set must be fitted in a well ventilated place, protected from

unfavourable weather conditions.

•

When handling the set, lift it by the base.

•

Do not lift the set by the delivery manifold: risk of damage to the

glued pipe work which may cause leaks when installed.

•

Position the set in such a way that any maintenance jobs can be

carried out without difficulty.

•

Ensure that the system pipes are independently supported and do

not weigh down on the set manifolds so as to avoid deformation or

breaking of any of its components.

It is also advisable to insert vibration-damping couplings on the system manifolds.

Make the intake section following all the precautions necessary to keep load losses

to a minimum and to avoid the formation of air pockets, for example:

•

Position the set as close as possible to the power supply source.

•

Consider a suction pipe diameter never smaller than that of the

manifold.

•

Lay the suction pipe horizontally or sloping slightly upwards towards

the set.

•

Avoid using elbows or couplings that cause sudden changes in

direction. If necessary, use bends with a wide radius.

Installation must be performed by skilled and authorised installers. During

installation, apply all safety behaviours issued by the competent bodies and

suggested by common sense. Install the unit in a dry well-ventilated place. Rest

the unit on a flat, regular and solid surface (rubber feet) or disassemble the rubber

feet and fix the unit to the base using the relevant screws. Vibrations must not

occur during functioning. The unit can only be installed in the horizontal position.

In the applications with positive suction head, the suction pipe must not be

smaller than that of the intake manifold. In the applications with negative suction

head, in particular cases there may be the necessity to replace the intake manifold

with an individual supply for each pump, in order to prevent preferential flows to

one or several pumps. Generally, in negative suction head applications, the intake

pipes must be as short and straight as possible, they must have a diameter greater

than or equal to the diameter of the pump intake (or the manifold if present). They

must also be supplied with foot-valve and have a slight slope to the pumps, to

prevent the formation of air pockets. Functioning with leaks in intake can damage

the unit pumps. Fix carefully the piping in order not to transmit stress of any type

to the pump. Fasten the piping to the respective manifolds, without excessive

force so as not to cause damage. Booster sets can be shifted in different ways

depending on the configuration of the machine and equipment available to the

installer.

The units are delivered ready for power supply connection, which must be carried

out by a skilled, authorised installer, in compliance with the Standards in force in

the country of installation. During installation, apply all safety behaviours

suggested by law and common sense. Make sure that the electric power supply

network is protected by ground connections in compliance with Standards. Check

the correspondence between the plate data and line nominal values. Before

making the connections, make sure that the ends of the line wires are not live.

Make the connection when you are sure of the existence of an efficient ground

circuit. The ground wire must be longer than the phase wires and must be the first

to be connected during assembly and the last to be disconnected during

disassembly. The installation of a differential switch is recommended.

Before removing the inverter cover or starting interventions on

it, the system must be disconnected from the mains electricity

and you must wait 5 mins until the intermediate circuit

condensers, which can reach voltages up to 800V, have the

time to discharge via the built-in discharge resistors.

EMERGENCY STOP

An emergency stop can be performed while the inverter is

running, by turning the Hand/off/Auto switches to “0” or

turning the panel isolator off.

Before starting up, please read carefully this Manual and the instructions of MAB &

MARB Variable speed control panels.
