The appliance is not intended to be used by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capacities, or who lack experience or knowledge,
unless, through the mediation of a person responsible
IRUWKHLUVDIHW\WKH\KDYHKDGWKHEHQH¿WRIVXSHUYLVLRQ
or of instructions on the use of the appliance. Children
must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with
the appliance.
Safety
Use is allowed only if the electric system is in posses-
sion of safety precautions in accordance with the
regulations in force in the country where the product is
installed.(for Italy CEI 64/2)
The power supply cable must never be used to carry or
shift the pump.
Never pull on the cable to detach the plug from the
socket.
If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer or by their authorised technical
assistance service, so as to avoid any risk.
Failure to observe the warnings may create situations of risk for
persons or property and will void the product guarantee.
KEY
The following symbols have been used in the discussion:
Situation of general danger. Failure to respect the
instructions that follow may cause harm to persons and
property.
WARNINGS
Read this documentation carefully before installation.
Installation and operation must comply with the local
safety regulations in force in the country in which the
product is installed. Everything must be done in a work-
manlike manner.
Failure to respect the safety regulations not only causes
risk to personal safety and damage to the equipment,
but invalidates every right to assistance under guaran-
tee.
Skilled personnel
It is advisable that installation be carried out by compe-
tent, skilled personnel in possession of the technical
TXDOL¿FDWLRQVUHTXLUHGE\WKHVSHFL¿FOHJLVODWLRQLQIRUFH

products that it may consider necessary or useful,
without affecting their essential characteristics
1. APPLICATIONS
The pumps in the NOVA UP series are of the submersible type,

Thanks to their compact and handy shape, they are also used
for particular applications as portable pumps for emergency
situations such as for drawing water from tanks or rivers, draining
swimming pools and fountains, excavations or underpasses. Also
suitable for gardening and general hobby activity.
These pumps cannot be used in swimming pools,
ponds or basins where people are present, or for
pumping hydrocarbons (petrol, diesel fuel, combusti-
ble oils, solvents, etc.) in accordance with the acci-
dent-prevention regulations in force.

The pump which does not stand on a base cannot
support the weight of the pipes, which must be sup-
ported in some other way.
4. MANAGEMENT
4.1 Storage
All the pumps must be stored in a dry covered place, with possible
constant air humidity, free from vibrations and dust.
They are supplied in their original pack in which they must remain
until the time of installation.
4.2 Transport
Avoid subjecting the products to needless impacts and collisions.
4.3 Weight
The adhesive plate on the packaging indicates the total weight of
the pump

ENGLISH GB
17
The pumps must never be carried, lifted or allowed to
operate suspended from the power cable.
• If the power supply cable is damaged in any way it must be
replaced and not repaired. Skilled personnel must therefore
be employed, in possession of the technical qualifications re-
quired by the Regulations in force.
• Qualified personnel must be employed also for electrical re-
pairs which, if badly carried out, could cause damage and ac-
cidents.
• The pump must never be allowed to run when dry.
• The Manufacturer does not vouch for the correct operation of
the pump if it has been tampered with or modified.
• On the body there is a venting hole to avoid phenomena of
cavitation when starting the pump. It is therefore normal for a
small amount of water to come out of the pump during opera-
tion.
5. WARNINGS
• Use in cellars, basements, etc. is allowed only if the electric sy-
stem is in possession of safety precautions in accordance with the
regulations in force.
• The pump is provided with a carrying handle which can also be
used to lower it into wells or deep excavations by means of a rope.

• The sealing device contains lubricant which is non-toxic but
which may alter the characteristics of the water, in the case of
pure water, if the pump were to have any leaks.
6. INSTALLATION
• If the bottom of the trap where the pump is to work is particu-
larly dirty, a support should be provided on which to place the
pump so as to avoid blocking of the suction grid.
Figure 3
• It is advisable to use pipes having an internal diameter of
30 mm, to avoid the decrease of pump performance and the
possibility of blocking.
• Totally immerse the pump in the water.
• Ensure that the minimum dimensions of the trap in which it is
housed are as in the following table:
Base dimensions
(mm) Height (mm)
NOVA UP 180 - 300 400x400 560
NOVA UP 600 400x400 600
• The dimensions of the trap must always be in relation to the
quantity of water arriving and to the flow of the pump, so as not
to subject the motor to excessive starts
The pump must be installed in vertical position!
6.1 “Zero” Suction
In models where it is allowed, it is possible to reduce the minimum

value indicated on the data plate and THAT IT IS

The length of the power cable on the pump limits the

• It is recommended to equip fixed pumping stations with a
device with a differential trip current lower than 30 mA (for the
version 220-240V version).
• The single-phase motors are equipped with built-in ther-
mal overload protection and can be connected directly to the
mains. NB: if the motor is overloaded it stops automatically.
Once it has cooled it starts again automatically without requi-
ring any manual intervention.
• Do not damage or cut the power supply cable. If this should
occur, have the repair or replacement carried out by speciali-
sed, qualified personnel

9. PRECAUTIONS
• RISK OF FROST: when the pump remains inactive at a tempe-
rature lower than 0°C, it is necessary to ensure that there is no
water residue which could freeze, causing cracks in the plastic
parts.
• If the pump has been used with substances that tend to form
a deposit, rinse it after use with a powerful jet of water in order
to avoid the formation of deposits or encrustations which would
reduce the characteristics of the pump.
• Ensure that the float switch does not touch the walls of the trap
during operation.
• Ensure that the OFF level is not too close to the suction grid,
minimum height below the filter 60/70mm.

If the pump has been used with substances that tend to form a
deposit, rinse it after use with a powerful jet of water.
10.1 Cleaning the suction grid
• Switch off the electric power supply to the pump.
• Drain the pump.
• On the models where it is present, unscrew the fixing screw
on the filter (Fig.9).
• Loosen the suction grid by inserting a screwdriver between
the pump jacket and the suction grid and turning it (Fig.10).
• Remove the suction grid (Fig.11)
• Clean and reassemble the suction grid.

10.2.Cleaning the impeller
• Switch off the electric power supply to the pump.
• On the models where it is present, unscrew the fixing screw
on the filter (Fig.9).
• Loosen the suction grid by inserting a screwdriver between
the pump jacket and the suction grid and turning it (Fig.10).
• Remove the bottom (Fig.11).
• Remove and clean the diaphragm.
• Wash the pump with clean water to remove possible impuri-
ties between the motor and the pump jacket.
• Clean the impeller.
• Check that the impeller can turn freely.
• Assemble the parts, proceeding in inverse order to disassem-
bly.
