Children should be supervised to ensure they do not play with the machine.

Safety Warnings for Use of Water Pumps

Adequate Uses

The pump is a stationary device designed for pumping clean, neutral liquids without abrasive solids, at temperatures not exceeding 40°C. It is useful for irrigating gardens, pumping non-aggressive liquids, and increasing insufficient water pressure from aqueducts. Peripheral pumps are suitable for agricultural applications like mini-sprinkler or aerial pulverization systems where higher pressure is required due to system height, and where minimum pressure for sprayers is high. Centrifugal pumps are not recommended for these applications due to their low output pressure. The device complies with current safety requirements when used as designed. Do not use for explosive liquids, combustibles, aggressive materials, substances harmful to health, or sewage water. Improper use or modifications, or using unapproved components, can lead to unexpected damage and absolves the manufacturer of legal responsibility.

ATTENTION: The pump must be connected via a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB) with a rated short-circuit current not exceeding 30 mA. ATTENTION: Before connecting, ensure the electrical supply matches the pump's requirements. ATTENTION: Do not install the pump outdoors or near wet areas. WARNING: Do not install the pump in areas with explosion risk or near combustible liquids or gases. WARNING: Do not direct the water jet against the device or other electrical components; there is a risk of fatal electric shock. ATTENTION: Ensure the power cable does not contact water circulating in the pump.

Any repair must be done only by a TRUPER Authorized Service Center. Otherwise, you risk electric shock and void the warranty. Symbols on the device must not be removed or covered. Replace any illegible information immediately. Read and follow operating instructions before installing and starting the pump. Any damage caused by omitting these instructions may damage the pump and void the warranty.

Recommended for aerial irrigation with nebulizers or pulverizers.

Parts

The diagram shows the following parts:

• Pressure water outlet
• Purge cap
• Water intake
• Power cord
• Base supports

Installation

Mounting

Install the pump in a dry, sheltered location with adequate ventilation (A), and ambient temperature not exceeding 40°C (104°F). Use bolts to fix the pump to a concrete base to prevent vibration (B). Install the pump horizontally for proper operation. Support suction and pressure pipes to the wall or floor to prevent tension transmission to the pump body (C). Be careful not to damage the pump or piping due to overtightening.

Suction Line (Inlet)

The suction pipe diameter should not be smaller than the pump's water intake diameter. If suction height exceeds 4m, use a larger diameter pipe. The suction pipe must be completely airtight. Its end should be submerged at least half a meter in water, preferably with a foot valve (D). The pipe should be vertical, bending 90° towards the pump's water intake. Failure to follow these instructions can cause air locks and bubbles that interfere with pump performance.

Pressure Line (Outlet)

Install a gate valve (E) on the outlet pipe to adjust flow speed and pressure. A check valve (F) is recommended between the pressurized water outlet and the gate valve to prevent unexpected backflow of water columns exceeding 20 meters.

Electrical Connection

Consult a professional electrician for electrical connections, adhering to mandatory regulations. The fixed installation must include a device for omnipolar disconnection from the power supply. Ensure electrical requirements on the pump's nameplate match the power supply capacity. Connect the pump to a grounded circuit and then connect the phases according to the diagram. The pump has a single-phase motor protected against overloads by a thermal device.

Start Up

Purge

Before the first start-up, after a long period of inactivity, or if air has entered the system, fill the pump with clean water before turning it on. Remove the purge cap (H) and fill with water until it reaches the orifice level. Screw the cap back on and turn on the pump. WARNING: Never start the pump when empty. If this happens accidentally, turn off the pump immediately, let it cool, and then fill it with clean water.

Maintenance

The pump requires minimal maintenance if the following precautions are taken: If there is a risk of freezing, empty the pump completely by removing the foot valve to drain the piping. If the pump will be inactive for a long period, it is recommended to empty it completely, rinse it with clean water, and store it in a dry place. If the shaft does not rotate freely, use a screwdriver to release it by inserting it into the rear orifice of the pump (J). WARNING: Disconnect the pump from the power supply before performing maintenance. If the ambient temperature is below 4°C or the pump will be unused for a long time, drain the liquid from the pipes to prevent freezing inside the pump. Do not operate the pump without water.
