1.1 Product description, general
The KESSEL lifting station Aqualift F Basic (referred to as „lifting station“ from here onwards) has been designed
for pumping off wastewater with and without sewage. The system tank houses the pump and the level sensor
(oat switch). All the assemblies have been matched to the KESSEL control unit included.
The level sensor switching signals for the wastewater level are processed electronically in the control unit. When
the switch-on level has been reached, the pump-off function is activated. When the level has fallen accordingly
again, pumping off is ended.
The pipe connections on the system tank have been prepared for different nominal widths and inlet directions.
The connection for a ventilation pipe has been prepared.

2 Safety
2.1 Correct use
The lifting station is to be used exclusively for pumping domestic wastewater with and without sewage.
The system must not be used in a potentially explosive environment.
Any
• conversions or attachments
• use of non-genuine spare parts
• carrying out of repairs by companies or persons not
approved by the manufacturer
• use under conditions other than those required in the current guidelines and standards
which has been carried out without the express and written permission of the manufacturer can lead to a loss of
warranty.
Note:
In order to protect the system‘s electrical components from damage, the control unit must be equipped with a
protective circuit. This does not serve as lightning protection. If such requirements are made, an appropriate
protective device must be installed on site.
2.2 Staff selection and qualication
Persons who install the lifting station must
– be at least 18 years old.
– have been sufciently trained and be sufciently qualied for the respective tasks.
– be familiar with and follow the respective technical rules and safety regulations.
Qualied staff are members of staff who, on the basis of their training and experience as well as their knowledge
of the relevant instructions, valid standards and accident prevention regulations, can carry out the required tasks
and both recognise and avoid any possible hazards.
Work on electrical components may only be carried out by specially trained specialist staff and under adherence
to all the valid accident prevention regulations (UVV).
2.3 Organisational safety measures
The operating and maintenance instructions must always be kept available.

40 / 180
Safety
2017/11
2.4 Risks caused by the product
2.4.1 Risk caused by special location / ambient conditions
Risk caused by toxic and hazardous vapours, gases and substances (e. g. bacteria, viruses). If the lifting
station is located in an inspection chamber, any necessary work must always be done by specialist staff (see
2.2).
2.4.2 Health risks
The lifting station pumps wastewater with sewage which can contain hazardous substances. Make sure eyes,
mouth or skin do not come into direct contact with the wastewater or parts of the system soiled by it. In the
case of direct contact, the part of the body affected must be washed thoroughly immediately and disinfected if
necessary. Wear personal protective equipment.
2.4.3 Risk caused by noise
Operation of the lifting station can cause a high noise level. Wear appropriate protective equipment if
necessary and take sound-insulating measures.
2.4.4 Explosion hazard
In accordance with DIN EN 12050-1: 2015-05 the inside of the system tank in a sewage lifting station can be
classied as a potentially explosive area. The operator of the system is responsible for this classication within
the scope of a risk assessment. A classication of zones is only required if potentially
– explosive gases occur simultaneously, e.g. through the introduction or formation
– of sewer gas, and measures to prevent a hazardous concentration of hazardous gases such as
aeration and ventilation prove inadequate.
The formation of a hazardous, potentially explosive atmosphere can be avoided during normal operation with
a standard-compliant installation and operation in accordance with EN 12056-4 and sufcient exchange of the
atmosphere in the system tank.
Notwithstanding this, the operator of the system must guarantee adequate occupational safety during all work
on the system. Special risks arise through toxic gases such as hydrogen sulphide as well as a lack of oxygen.
This is why appropriate safety measures such as measuring safe levels or forced ventilation in accordance with
occupational safety regulations have to be carried out.
2.4.5 Risk caused by heat
Risk of burning by touching hot surfaces. When in operation for longer periods, wastewater pumps develop a
high temperature on the housing surface. Wear protective equipment (gloves) or allow the pumps to cool down
accordingly.
2.4.6 Risk caused by unexpected wastewater pump start-up
The wastewater pump can start up at any time if the lifting station is not disconnected from the power supply.
Always have specialist staff remove the wastewater pump and only after the system has been cleared and
secured against being switched on again unintentionally.

Installation

3 Installation
Risk caused by toxic and hazardous vapours, gases and substances (e. g. bacteria, viruses). Always have any
necessary work on the lifting station done by specialist staff (see 2.2).
Before housing covers, plugs and cables (including those on potential-free contacts) are opened they must be
switched voltage-free. Work on electrical components may only be carried out by specialist staff (page 2.2).
3.1 General points related to installation
– A fault current circuit breaker must be provided as electrical protection for the lifting station.
– The lifting station‘s control unit should be positioned to prevent any unauthorised use. Consequential damage
can occur in the building if the lifting station is switched off accidentally.
The lifting station is installed and put into operation at different times according to the usual construction phases
on a building site.
1. Installation of the system tank with connection of wastewater inlet, ventilation and the pressure pipe via which
the wastewater is pumped off (Chapter 3.2 to 3.5)
2. Installation of the control unit and connection of the electrical components (chapter 3.6)
3. Initial operation (chapter 3.7).
3.2 Fasten system tank to the oor
We recommend using a sound-absorbent mat as acoustic insulation
(to minimise the transmission of sound on the support surface).
This is available as an accessory from KESSEL.
• Position the system tank correctly and screw to the oor at the two
fastening points <21>. Screws maximum M8.
Choose the fastening elements such that a tensile load of at least
200 N can be borne by each fastening point.
