3.4 Frequency converter operation
Before installing a frequency converter, calculate the
lowest allowable frequency in the installation in order
to avoid zero flow.
3.4.1 Requirements
• The thermal protection of the motor must be
connected.
• Do not reduce the motor speed to less than 30 %
of rated speed.
• Keep the flow velocity above 1 m/sec.
• Let the pump run at rated speed at least once a
day in order to prevent sedimentation in the pipe
system.
• Do not exceed the frequency indicated on the
nameplate. In this case there is a risk of motor
overload.
• Keep the power cable as short as possible.
The peak voltage will increase with the length of
the power cable. See data sheet for the
frequency converter used.
• Use input and output filters on the frequency
converter. See data sheet for the frequency
converter used.
3.4.2 Possible consequences
When operating the pump via a frequency converter,
please be aware of these possible consequences:
• The locked-rotor torque will be lower. How much
lower will depend on the frequency converter
type. See the installation and operating
instructions for the frequency converter used for
information on the locked-rotor torque available.
• The working condition of bearings and shaft seal
may be affected. The possible effect will depend
on the application. The actual effect cannot be
predicted.
• The acoustic noise level may increase. See the
installation and operating instructions for the
frequency converter used for advice as to how to
reduce the acoustic noise.
4. Starting up the product

The pumps are designed for intermittent operation
(S3). When completely submerged, the pumps can
also operate continuously (S1).
Fig. 5 Operating levels of DPK
S3, intermittent operation
S3 operation is a series of identical duty cycles (TC)
each with a constant load for a period, followed by a
rest period. Thermal equilibrium is not reached
during the cycle. See fig. 6.
Fig. 6 S3 operation
S1, continuous operation
In this operating mode, the pump can operate
continuously without being stopped for cooling.
Being completely submerged, the pump is
sufficiently cooled by the surrounding liquid. See fig.

Fig. 7 S1 operation
4.2 Checking the direction of rotation
Check the direction of rotation in the following way
every time the pump is connected to a new
installation.
Proceed as follows:
1. Remove the pump from the system. Let the pump
hang from a lifting device, for example the hoist
used for lowering the pump into the pit.
2. Start and run the pump for a few seconds.
3. Observe the jerk of the pump. If the pump jerks
counterclockwise, the direction of rotation is
correct. See fig. 8.
4. Reinstall the pump in the system.
In case the direction of rotation is wrong, interchange
any two phases in the power cable.

• Store the pump in a vertical position on a pallet or
a stand to keep the pump off the floor and
facilitate easy removal.
• Coil up the cable, and seal the open end tightly
with waterproof plastic and tape or a cable cap.
Do this to prevent moisture from penetrating into
the motor which will cause severe damage to the
windings.
• Give all unpainted surfaces a light coat of oil or
grease to prevent corrosion.
• If new pumps are stored for more than two
months, turn the impeller by hand every two
months to prevent the mechanical seal faces
from seizing up. Failure to do this may result in
seal damage when the pump is started up again.
5.2.2 Storage in the pit (dry or wet)
• If an installed pump is not in operation for a long
time, check the insulation resistance and run the
pump for 30 minutes every month.
If the pump cannot be run due to lack of water in
the pit, inspect the pump and turn the impeller by
hand each month and before putting the pump
back into service. If the insulation resistance
drops below 10 megohms, contact Grundfos.
• When the pump is not in service, disconnect the
power supply from the control panel.
• If the pump is disconnected from the control
cabinet when not in service, protect the cable
end as described in section 5.2.1 Warehouse
storage.
The pump must not run dry.
In case of abnormal noise or vibrations
from the pump or other pump or power
supply failure, stop the pump immediately.

8.1 Safety instructions and requirements
8.2 Service documentation
Service documentation is available on
www.grundfos.com > International website >
Grundfos Product Center > Service & support.
If you have any questions, please contact the
nearest Grundfos company or service centre.
8.3 Contaminated products
The product will be classified as contaminated if it
has been used for a liquid which is injurious to health
or toxic.
If you request Grundfos to service the product,
contact Grundfos with details about the pumped
liquid before returning the product for service.
Otherwise, Grundfos can refuse to accept the
product for service.
Any application for service must include details
about the pumped liquid.
Clean the product in the best possible way before
you return it.
Costs of returning the product are to be paid by the
customer.
8.4 Maintenance
Under normal operating conditions, remove the
pump from the pit and inspect it once every year.
Under severe operating conditions where sand,
fibrous material and solids are involved, do this once
a month.
Check the following points:
• Electrical test of the motor
See sections 8.4.1 Checking the current and
voltage and 8.4.2 Checking the insulation
resistance.
• Outlet pressure and flow rate
See section 8.4.3 Checking the outlet pressure
and flow rate.
• Seal-sensor resistance
See section 8.4.4 Inspecting the seal sensor.
• Oil level and oil condition
See section 8.4.5 Oil check and oil change.
• Impeller clearance
See section 8.4.6 Inspection and adjustment of
impeller clearance.
8.4.1 Checking the current and voltage
Check the pump current and voltage. If the ammeter
reading exceeds the rated value or is far lower than
the rated value, there is a problem. The voltage must
be stable within - 5 %/+ 5 % of the rated value
throughout the operational period.
8.4.2 Checking the insulation resistance
If the insulation resistance has declined sharply
since the previous reading, this is an indication of
impending insulation failure, and the pump must be
scheduled for service even though the insulation
resistance may still be over 10 mega ohms.
8.4.3 Checking the outlet pressure and flow rate
Declining performance can indicate the need for an
overhaul. Regardless of performance, the pressure
and flow rate must be stable, and rapidly changing
pressure or flow rate indicate system problems on
the inlet or outlet side.
WARNING
Electric shock
Death or serious personal injury
- Before starting any work on the product,
make sure that the fuses have been
removed or the main switch has been
switched off and locked in position 0.
Make sure the power supply cannot be
accidentally switched on.
WARNING
Crushing of hands
Death or serious personal injury
- Make sure that all rotating parts have
stopped moving.

8.4.4 Inspecting the seal sensor
Check the resistance of the seal sensor with a
multimeter as shown in fig. 13.
Fig. 13 Resistance check
8.4.5 Oil check and oil change
Fig. 14 Position of oil plug
1. Loosen the oil plug. See fig. 14.
2. Remove the oil plug and check the oil level.
3. Take a sample to inspect the condition of the oil.
4. If the oil needs to be changed, place a clean
container under the pump to collect all the
drained-off oil.
5. Tilt the pump with the oil-filling hole pointing
downwards in order to drain the pump of oil.
If the drained oil is contaminated or opaque, this
is an indication of an impending mechanical shaft
seal failure. Replace the mechanical seal.
6. Fill fresh oil into the oil chamber through the oil
filling hole. Use lubrication oil ISO VG 32 Mobil
DTE 24 turbine oil 90 or equivalent.
8.4.6 Inspection and adjustment of impeller
clearance
Check the clearance between the impeller and the
wear plate. Recommended clearance is 0.3 - 0.5
mm. Replace or repair as necessary.
Do not use a megger as it will damage the
control circuit of the seal sensor.
