5. Орнотуу

Installation should be performed by qualified personnel in accordance with all applicable local and national codes. Ensure the system is depressurized and cooled before beginning.

1. Системаны даярдоо: Turn off the heating system and allow it to cool. Close isolation valves to isolate the section where the pump will be installed. Drain the system water from this section.
2. Монтаждоо: The pump should be installed in a horizontal position with the motor shaft horizontal to ensure proper lubrication and cooling. Use appropriate flanges for connection to the piping system (1/2-inch, 3/4-inch, 1-inch, or 1-1/4-inch).
3. Электр байланышы: Connect the pump to a dedicated 115-volt, single-phase electrical supply. Ensure proper grounding. Refer to the wiring diagram inside the terminal box cover.
4. Толуктоо: After installation and before starting, slowly refill the system with water. Vent any air from the pump and system to ensure proper priming. The built-in flow check valve will automatically open with flow.
5. Агып кетүүнү текшерүү: Inspect all connections for leaks after refilling the system and before restoring power.

6. Операция

The Grundfos 52722512 circulator pump is designed for continuous operation within its specified parameters. It features three selectable speeds to match system requirements.

• Ылдамдык тандоо: The pump has a switch or dial to select between Low, Medium, and High speeds. Choose the appropriate speed based on the system's flow and head requirements. Higher speeds provide greater flow and head, while lower speeds consume less energy.
• Flow Check Valve: The integrated flow check valve prevents gravity circulation when the pump is off, improving system efficiency. It operates automatically and does not require manual adjustment.
• Алгачкы ишке киргизүү: After installation and priming, restore power to the pump. The pump should start circulating water. Listen for unusual noises, which may indicate air in the system or an obstruction.

7. Техникалык тейлөө

The Grundfos 52722512 circulator pump is designed to be maintenance-free under normal operating conditions. However, periodic checks can help ensure optimal performance and longevity.

• Жылдык текшерүү: Annually inspect the pump for any signs of external leaks, corrosion, or unusual noises during operation.
• Системанын суусунун сапаты: Ensure the heating system water quality is maintained according to manufacturer recommendations to prevent internal corrosion or scaling that could affect pump performance.
• Тазалоо: Keep the exterior of the pump clean and free from dust or debris to ensure proper motor cooling.
• Майлоонун кереги жок: The pump is factory-lubricated and does not require additional lubrication.

8. Кыйынчылыктарды

If the pump is not operating correctly, perform the following basic checks. For complex issues, contact a qualified service technician.
