Maintenance Tips

• System Preparation:

• Ensure the system is filled with clean water or a maximum 50% propylene-glycol solution before operating the pump. The pump's water-lubricated bearings must not run dry.

• Air Purging:

• Use the pump’s built-in air purging feature to eliminate air. If air remains, manually vent the system to prevent noise and inefficiency.

• Routine Inspection:

• Regularly check for abnormal noise or vibrations, which could indicate cavitation or debris in the impeller.

• Cartridge Maintenance:

• The 0011-SF4-IFC has a replaceable cartridge containing all moving parts. If the pump shows reduced performance, consider replacing the cartridge.

• Electrical Checks:

• Ensure electrical connections are secure, and verify the power supply matches the pump's requirements.

• Environmental Considerations:

• Install the pump in a dry, indoor location and avoid using petroleum-based fluids or chemical additives to prevent internal component damage.

• Installation Best Practices:

• Mount the pump with vibration dampeners and rotate the control cover as needed for flexible installation.
