2. General
On page 382 of these installation and operating
instructions, you will find copies of the pump and
motor nameplates.
Before the SQ/SQE pump is lowered into the
borehole, this page should be filled in with the
relevant nameplate data.
These installation and operating instructions must be
kept in a dry place near the installation site for
reference purposes.
2.1 Applications
The SQ and SQE pumps are designed for pumping
thin, clean, non-aggressive, non-explosive liquids,
not containing solid particles or fibres.
Typical applications:
•
Groundwater supply for
– private housing
– small waterworks
– irrigation systems in for instance green houses.
•
Liquid transfer in tanks.
•
Pressure boosting.
The SQE-NE pumps are designed for pumping thin,
clean, non-explosive liquids, not containing solid
particles or fibres.
These pumps are suitable for pumping contaminated
or hydrogen-carbonate containing groundwater, e.g.
from
•
dumps
•
chemical depots
•
industrial areas
•
oil and petrol filling stations
•
environmental applications.
The SQE-NE pumps can also be used for sampling
and monitoring and to some extent for incorporation
in water treatment systems.
Information applying to all pump types
The maximum sand content of the water must not
3
exceed 50 g/m
. A larger sand content will reduce
the life of the pump and increase the risk of blocking.
If liquids with a viscosity higher than that of
Note
water are to be pumped, please contact
Grundfos.
pH values
SQ and SQE: 5 to 9.
SQE-NE:
Please contact Grundfos.
Liquid temperature
The temperature of the pumped liquid must not
exceed 35 °C.

3.1 Storage
Storage temperature: -20 °C to +60 °C.
3.1.1 Frost protection
If the pump has to be stored after use, it must be
stored on a frost-free location or it must be ensured
that the motor liquid is frost-proof.
The motor must not be stored without being filled
with motor liquid.
3.2 Sound pressure level
The sound pressure level of the pump is lower than
the limiting values stated in the EC Council Directive
2006/42/EC relating to machinery.
