INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
Installation and functioning must comply with the safety regulations in force in the
country in which the product is installed. The entire operation must be carried out in a
workmanlike manner.
Failure to comply with the safety regulations not only causes risk to personal safety and
damage to the equipment, but invalidates every right to assistance under guarantee.
APPLICATIONS
The FEKA VS-VX pump is a submersible centrifugal pump made of stainless steel with a vortex
back impeller, designed and built for use with dirty water from septic tanks and dirty water in
general containing solid bodies with maximum diameter 50 mm, but only for non-aggressive water.
Thanks to the radial delivery aperture (2" female) it may be easily fitted on lifting devices (type
DSD2).
The float, where fitted, allows fixed installation and guarantees automatic pumping operation.
The DRENAG 1000 - 1200 pump is of submersible centrifugal type, made completely of stainless
steel with a clearance impeller, designed and built to pump clear waste water, sandy, muddy and
sludgy waters, without fibre, containing solid bodies with maximum dimensions up to 10 mm in
diameter, but always non-aggressive waters. Suitable for domestic and building-site uses in fixed
applications, with manual or automatic operation, for draining cellars and garages prone to flooding,
for pumping drains, rainwater traps or infiltrations from gutters, excavations, etc. Thanks to their
compact shape and easy manoeuvrability and to the vertical delivery mouth with male thread, they are
also suitable for particular applications as portable pumps for emergency uses, such as for drawing
water from tanks or rivers, draining swimming pools or fountains, excavations or underpasses. Also
suitable for gardening and hobby uses in general.
The float, where fitted, allows fixed installation and guarantees automatic pumping operation.
These pumps cannot be used in swimming pools, ponds or tanks in which people
or present, or for pumping hydrocarbons (petrol, diesel fuel, fuel oils, solvents,
etc.) in accordance with the accident-prevention regulations in force.
N.B. The liquid inside the pump, to lubricate the seal device, is not toxic but it may alter the
characteristics of the water (if it is pure water) if there is a leak in the seal device.

WARNINGS
1. Use is allowed only if the electric system is in possession of safety precautions in accordance with the
regulations in force.
The appliance is not intendend for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsable for their safety. Children should be
supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
2. The pump is provided with a carrying handle which may also be used to lower it into wells or deep holes
with a rope or cable.
The pumps must never be carried, lifted or made to operate hanging
from their power cable.
3. If the power cable is damaged in any way it must be replaced and not repaired (use cable type H07RN-F
diam. 9 – 9.5 mm. with minimum length 10 metres for the portable version, with a UNEL 47166-68 plug
for the SINGLE-PHASE version and with an EEC plug for the THREE-PHASE version).
This must be done by skilled personnel, in possession of the qualifications required by the regulations in
force.
4. Qualified personnel must also be employed for all electrical repairs which, if badly carried out, could
cause damage and accidents.
5. The pump must never be allowed to run dry.
6. The Manufacturer does not vouch for correct operation of the pump if it is tampered with or modified.
INSTALLATION
1. If the bottom of the well or borehole in which the pump is to operate is particularly dirty, it is
advisable to provide a support for the pump to sit on so as to avoid clogging of the intake grid.
(Fig. 1-Fig.3).
2. Before putting the pump in position, ensure that the strainer is not totally or partially blocked by
mud, sediment or similar substances.
3. It is advisable to use pipes with an internal diameter at least equal to that of the delivery mouth,
to avoid falls in pump performance and the possibility of clogging. In cases where the delivery
pipe has long horizontal stretches, it is advisable for this pipe to have a larger diameter than that
of the delivery mouth.
4.
Totally immerse the pump in the water.
INSTALLATION FEKA VS-VX
1. On the version provided with a float
switch, ensure that the float can move
freely (SEE THE PARAGRAPH ON
ADJUSTING THE FLOAT SWITCH).
Ensure that the minimum dimensions of
the borehole are as in Fig.1. The
dimensions of the borehole must also be
calculated with relation to the quantity of
water arriving and to the pump flow rate
so as not to subject the motor to excessive
starting operations.
2. When the pump is to be in a fixed
installation, with a float, a check valve
must always be fitted in the delivery pipe.
This is also advisable on pumps with
manual operation.

3. Connect the delivery pipe or hose directly to the pump mouth. If the pump is used in fixed
installations it is advisable to connect it to the pipe with a coupling so as to facilitate
disassembly and reinstallation. If a hose is used, fit a threaded hosetail on the pump mouth.
Wrap the thread with suitable material to ensure an effective seal (teflon tape or similar).
4. For fixed installations we advise the use of the lifting device
DSD2 (available on request - Fig.2) to facilitate pump
maintenance operations. When fitted between the pump
delivery aperture and the pipe, it avoids having to remove the
delivery pipe during maintenance jobs. The DSD2 device is
composed of 8 parts:
A. Pipe anchoring bracket
B. 3/4" pipes (not supplied)
C. Slide
D. Pipe guide columns
E. Foot
F. Screw TCEI M10X25
G. Base bracket
H. Nut M10
I. Pump flange screw
L. Pump
(Fig.2)
The foot is positioned on the bottom of the tank and fixed with expansion screws of suitable
dimensions. The pipe guide bracket must be positioned at the top of well or borehole and
inserted in the end of two 3/4” pipes (not supplied), which act as a slide. The two pipes connect
the bracket to the foot. Position the base bracket in contact with the pump suction strainer near
the delivery aperture, secure everything to the strainer cover with the screws provaided to lock
the strainer cover.
Remove the top screw from the flange on the delivery side ( I ).
Assemble the anti-rotation bracket ( G ).
Replace the screw ( I ).
Extract the slide from the coupling foot and connect it to the delivery port of the pump.
Using the screw F and the nut H, fix the slide to the pump as indicated in the figure.
Reposition the slide/pump assembly on the foot (Fig.2).
INSTALLATION DRENAG 1000-1200
1. Connect the delivery pipe or hose directly to
the pump mouth. If the pump is used in fixed
installations it is advisable to connect it to the
pipe with a coupling so as to facilitate
disassembly and reinstallation. If a hose is
used, fit a threaded hosetail on the pump
mouth. Wrap the thread with suitable material
to ensure an effective seal (teflon tape or
similar).
2. On the version provided with a float switch,
ensure that the float can move freely (SEE THE
PARAGRAPH ON ADJUSTING THE FLOAT
SWITCH). Ensure that the minimum
dimensions of the borehole are as in Fig.3.
The dimensions of the borehole must also be
calculated with relation to the quantity of water
arriving and to the pump flow rate so as not to
subject the motor to excessive starting
operations.

3. When the pump is to be in a fixed installation, with a float, a check valve must always be fitted in
the delivery pipe. This is also advisable on pumps with manual operation.
ELECTRIC CONNECTION
CAUTION! ALWAYS FOLLOW THE SAFETY REGULATIONS.
1. Ensure that the mains voltage is the same as the value shown on the motor plate and
that there is the possibility of MAKING A GOOD EARTH CONNECTION.
2. Pumping stations must always be provided with an automatic switch with an
intervention current of less than 30 mA.
3. Single-phase motors are provided with built-in thermal overload protection and may
be connected directly to the mains. N.B. If the motor is overloaded it stops
automatically. Once it has cooled down it starts again automatically without any
need for manual intervention.
4. Three-phase pumps must be protected with motor protectors suitably calibrated
according to the values on the data plate of the pump to be installed. The plug on the
pump must be connected to an EEC socket complete with isolating switch and fuses.
5. Do not damage or cut the power cable. If this should occur accidentally, have it
repaired or replaced by skilled and qualified personnel.
CHECKING THE DIRECTION OF ROTATION (for three-phase motors)
(Fig.4)
The direction of rotation must be checked each time a new
installation is made.
Proceed as follows (Fig.4):
1. Place the pump on a flat surface.
2. Start the pump and stop it immediately.
3. Carefully observe the kick-back on starting, looking at the
pump from the motor side. The direction of rotation is
correct, that is clockwise, if the protection cap moves as in
the drawing (anti-clockwise).
If it is not possible to check as described above because the pump is already installed, check as
follows:
1. Start the pump and observe the water flow rate.
2. Stop the pump, switch off the power and invert two phases on the supply line.
3. Restart the pump and check the water flow rate again.
4. Stop the pump.
The correct direction of rotation will be the one in which the flow rate
and electric absorption are LOWER!
STARTING UP
Models with a float switch start up automatically when the water level rises; models without a float
are started by means of a switch located upstream from the socket (not supplied).
ADJUSTING THE FLOAT SWITCH
Lengthening or shortening the cable between the float and the fixed point (slot provided in the
handle - Fig.5) adjusts the START or STOP level of the pump. Be sure that the float can move
freely.

ENGLISH
21
Ensure that the stop level does not uncover the strainer.
(Fig.5)
PRECAUTIONS
1. The intake strainer must always be in place during pump operation.
2. The pump should not be started more than 20 times in one hour so as not to subject the motor to
excessive thermal shock.
3. DANGER OF FROST: When the pump remains inactive for a long time at temperatures of less
than 0°C, it is necessary to ensure that there is no water residue which could freeze and cause
cracking of the pump components.
4. If the pump has been used with substances which tend to form a deposit, rinse it after use with a
powerful jet of water so as to avoid the formation of deposits or scale which would tend to
reduce the yield of the pump.
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
In normal operation, the pump does not require any specific maintenance, thanks to its
mechanical seal lubricated in an oil chamber and to its sealed-for-life bearings. The
electropump must not be dismantled unless by skilled personnel in possession of
the qualifications required by the regulations in force. In any case, all repairs and
maintenance jobs must be carried out only after having disconnected the pump from the
power mains.
During disassembly, pay attention to any sharp parts which could cause injury.
