scarves or ties which can be caught up in the moving parts of the machine.
Do not wear rings, watches, or other jewels which can cause a similar danger.
Do not insert fingers or body parts between moving or cutting parts.

- The water under pressure for washing must be used only when wearing protective goggles.

- Do not use free flames for the illumination of dark areas or for the location of leaks in tubes or
equipment.

- In case of dusty or poorly aerated areas, wear the filtrating mask.

- In a noisy area use ear protections.

- Always keep all the equipment and parts of it in an efficient and good working condition. It is
dangerous to use equipment or machines which are in a poor state.

out or deteriorated.

DANGEROUS SITUATIONS MUST BE PREVENTED BEFORE ARISING

- Do not play with air or water jets, as well as tools while in motion.

- The emission of fluids under pressure in a flexible hose, can cause the free end to whiplash and
thus harm the people nearby.

- Before disconnecting a flexible hose, be sure that the pressure inside the hose has been completely
released.

- It is forbidden to weld or undertake any type of operations on reservoirs and any parts subjected to
internal pressure
USO1812.doc

DESCRIPTION OF THE EQUIPMENT

The equipment is composed of a 20.000 l tank, a structure for supporting the tank and for fixing it onto
the vehicle chassis and of a pumping unit, necessary for the pumping of water, driven by a hydraulic
unit which receives motion from the vehicle power take off.

Pumping Unit

The pumping unit is composed of:

- n.1 centrifugal pump “T” driven by hydraulic engine

- n.1 water filter “H” mounted on the suction pipe of the pump
- n.1 front spray bar
- n.1 rear spray bar
- n.1 set of manual gatevalves “A, B ,C ,D”
- n.1 pneumatic gatevalve “E” for delivery to the rear spray bar
- n.1 pneumatic gatevalve “F” for delivery to the front spray bar
USO1812.doc
The functions obtainable from the pumping unit are:

- filling of the tank with water

- delivery of water at a low pressure from the feed opening of the pumping unit
- transfer of water between two external reservoirs
- delivery of water from the front spray bar
- delivery of water from the rear spray bar
- unloading of the tank

Hydraulic unit

The hydraulic unit is driven by a pump “P” which sucks oil from the reservoir “I” and sends it to the
engine “R”.
From the engine the oil returns through the filter “L” back to the reservoir “I”.

In the hydraulic circuit the following are also included:

- A valve of maximum pressure “S” (by-pass valve), mounted on the delivery of the pump “P”,
has the task of deviating the hydraulic oil directly to the reservoir if inside the delivery pipe the
pressure becomes too high (e.g. engine blocked).
The limit of intervention of the valve is set during the testing operations of the hydraulic unit
and must not be increased.
- A re-circulation valve “X”
- A priority valve “K”
- A gatevalve “M” which interrupts the flow of hydraulic oil in the circuit in case of maintenance to
the hydraulic unit or the replacement of worn out or deteriorated tubes.
USO1812.doc

STARTING THE EQUIPMENT

Preliminary Operations

- Check the hydraulic oil level inside the reservoir

- Open the gatevalve “M” which allows the oil to flow inside the hydraulic circuit

Starting

- Switch on the engine of the vehicle, and with the engine at the lowest speed, wait for it to warm up

- Push the clutch pedal

- Insert the power take off by means of the pneumatic switch inside the cabin

DURING THE STARTING OPERATIONS THE VEHICLE ENGINE

MUST BE KEPT AT THE MINIMUM

Once the above operations are completed the hydraulic unit receives the motion from the power take
off and thus starts the water pump. The unit is now ready to carry out the working operations.
 USO1812.doc

USE OF THE EQUIPMENT AND FORESEEN OPERATIONS

Once the above operations have been done accelerate the vehicle engine up to a speed of 1200 r.p.m.

ATTENTION
WITH THE POWER TAKE OFF INSERTED THE VEHICLE ENGINE MUST NOT EXCEED
1200 r.p.m.

4 SAFETY AND ACCIDENT PREVENTION INFORMATION
fig. 1
When working near the pump, dress appropriately, avoiding clothes with loose items (ties,
scarves, etc.) which could get caught in moving parts. Use overalls made according to
safety regulations, gloves, insulating shoes, safety glasses, ear plugs and helmet (fig.1).

Do not carry out maintenance on the engine while it is running.

Keep hands away from moving parts (e.g. belts, couplings, etc.).
Keep hands away from hot areas of the engines (fig. 4).
Do not mount on the pump to carry out maintenance operations of any kind.

5 IN CASE OF EMERGENCY
Turn off the electrical supply (for electrically driven pumps).
Shut off the engine (for engine driven pumps).
Notify the person responsible for running the plant immediately.

6 HANDLING AND TRANSPORT

6.1 Method of transport
The pump must be transported safely.
6.2 Installation
During installation and maintenance, all the components used
must be handled and transported securely by using suitable
slings. Handling must be carried out by specialised personnel to
avoid damage to the pump and to persons. The lifting rings
attached to various components should be used exclusively to
lift the components for which they have been supplied. Figure fig. 2
(1) highlights in black the lifting points of some typical base
plates.


fig.3
Maximum lifting speed: Vmax ≤ 0,5 m/s

Do not stand or pass under the pump while it is being

hoisted!(fig.3)

7 STORAGE
Store the pump under cover wherever possible. If the pump
must be stored in the open, cover it with a tarpaulin and grease
the bearings to avoid rusting. (fig. 4).
Avoid the accumulation of moisture around the pump.
Drain the casing through the drain cover (fig. 5) and the rear fig. 4
plug mounted on some models. During winter months and
cold weather, the liquid could freeze and damage the pump
casing. If the liquid is hazardous, take all necessary
precautions to avoid damage and injury before emptying
the pump casing. From time to time, turn the pump shaft to
avoid encrustation inside the pump
8 ASSEMBLY
If the pump is supplied with bare shaft (pedestal version) it must be coupled to an electric
motor or internal combustion engine, taking account of the following:
- the coupling must be correctly sized for the power to be transmitted
- the coupling must be correctly aligned (see paragraph 9)
- the coupling guard must comply with applicable safety standards
- the rated power of the motor or engine fig. 5
- the power absorbed by the pump (see the motor name plate)
- the motor or engine speed (see the motor name plate)
- the pump speed

9 INSTALLATION
The base plates of electrically or engine driven pumps must be anchored to a levelled concrete slab in which the foundation bolts have
been buried following the diagram supplied with the unit or available on request. The slab must be robust to absorb any vibrations and
sufficiently rigid to maintain the alignment of the pump to the motor or engine.
For trailer mounted pumps, block the wheels using the two chocks supplied.
9.1 Assembly
While the base plate is being anchored to the slab, check the flatness by placing a spirit level on the delivery flange of the pump.
If adjustments are necessary, the face of the slab must be adapted to the base plate, never the base plate to the slab.
The pump casing must be suitably supported when the pump is coupled to a gear box for agricultural use.

5
9.2 Pipework
Clean the pipes thoroughly before connecting them to the pump.
The suction line must have a diameter equal to that of the pump suction port (for diameters greater than that of the pump port, consult
Varisco). If possible, avoid curves, elbows and constrictions which can limit the flow of liquid to the pump. Do not install a foot valve: the
pump has a non return valve (14) incorporated in the suction port (fig. 10).
Install the pump as close as possible to the liquid to be pumped. Try, where possible, to reduce the length of the suction line.
The suction line connections must be completely airtight: check pipe threads, flange gaskets, quick couplings, etc.
The delivery line must let air escape from the system while the pump is priming.
The suction and delivery lines must be mounted in such a way as not to create a strain on the pump casing. Engine driven pumps must
have lengths of flexible hose to isolate the pipework from the vibrations generated by the internal combustion engine

10 ALIGNMENT
Before starting the pump for the first time, it is important to check the alignment between the components of the unit (coupling/
motor).
The alignment of pumps supplied on base plates is checked during manufacture. However, it should be rechecked during installation as
follows:
- set up the base plate on top of the slab and insert the anchor bolts in the holds on the base plate without tightening the nuts completely
- remove the coupling guard.
- tighten the anchor bolt nuts and recheck the alignment as shown in fig.6. Adjust the alignment, if necessary, according to the type of
coupling as described in paragraphs 14.10; 14.11; 14.12.
- replace the coupling guard before starting the pump.

11 ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Electrical connections should only be carried out by specialised personnel.
- Follow the instructions of the manufacturers of the electric motor and electrical equipment.
- Earth the motor correctly and ensure that the electric motor is protected by an adequately rated overload cut-out.
- Three phase electric motors are usually supplied for 380 V (star connection). For 220 V supply, connect the motor terminal box in the delta
configuration as shown in the wiring diagram attached.
- Special voltage motors may be supplied. In this case, follow the instructions supplied with the motor.
- The cross section of the cables must be adequate for the current required by the motor.
- When the motor has been connected, close the delivery line gate valve and check that the direction of rotation is correct.
- The arrow on the pump casing shows the correct direction of rotation (fig.7); if the pump rotates in the opposite direction, interchange two
of the three wires of the supply cable in the terminal box.
On request, pumps for brackish water
can be supplied with galvanic protection
against corrosion. This consists of a
series of zinc discs fixed to the clean
out cover. Check the state of wear of the
zinc every 1000 hours and replace if
necessary.
While the pump is running, check that
the current does not exceed that shown
fig. 7 Star connection Delta connection
on the motor name plate.

12 STARTING
Before operating the pump, check that the electrical and mechanical parts of the system have been correctly installed.
Check that all safety devices are operative.
Check that the pump rotates in the correct direction (see paragraph 12).
12.1 Mechanical seal check
Before starting the pump, check the type of mechanical seal shown on the pump name plate.
12.1.1 Pumps with type TW or T4W mechanical seals
Type TW and T4W mechanical seals are filled with grease during assembly. They do not require maintenance during the first 500 hours
of operation of the pump.
12.1.2 Pumps with type T mechanical seals
Type T mechanical seals are not lubricated..

6
12.1.3 Pumps with type TCW - TC8W mechanical seals

Type TCW, TC8W mechanical seals are flushed according to API 610 Plan 52-53 (see diagram in fig. 8).
Plan 52 has a non-pressurised tank.
Plan 53 has a pressurised tank with a pressure from 1 to 2 bar higher than the pump operating
pressure.

 The flushing liquid must be compatible with the pumped liquid.

fig. 8

fig. 9 12.2 Filling the pump casing

Fill the pump casing completely with the liquid to be pumped through the opening on the top of the
casing (fig. 9). Some models have a plug. When the pump is stopped, the casing does not empty
and therefore it is not necessary to refill it.
12.3 Priming
Attention: if the pump does not prime, do not operate it for more than 2 minutes to avoid
overheating the liquid and damaging the seal.
If the pump does not prime, read paragraph 15.1.
Engine driven pumps should be brought up gradually to running speed. Never change the
accelerator limit stop: at speeds higher than that for which the engine is set, the pump would absorb
more power than the engine can supply.
Never exceed the maximum speed shown on the pump name plate.
When the pump has primed:
- Check the shaft seal for leaks.
- Check that the current absorbed by the motor does not exceed the rated value shown on the name plate.
If the pump does not seem to be operating normally, it must be stopped and the cause found (see paragraph 15).

13 MAINTENANCE
Before maintenance is carried out, the pump must be stopped and the electrical supply disconnected. The supply must only be
switched on again by the person who carries out the maintenance.
Attention: residual liquid may be found in the pump casing, head and suction line. Take the necessary precautions if the liquid is
hazardous, inflammable, corrosive, poisonous, infected, etc.
13.1 Inspection and checks
Check from time to time that the pump is working correctly. Use the instruments mounted in the system (pressure gauge, vacuum gauge,
ammeter, etc.) to see if the pump continues to meet its duty.
Periodic maintenance of the parts subject to wear, in particular, the impeller and wear plate, is recommended.

again to remove the seal
- Reconnect the flushing lines, begin flushing and bleed out air from the area around the seal. The seal must not run dry even for a few
moments.
13.7 Positioning the impeller with reference to the wear plate(s)
- In all models, the distance between
the top of the impeller blades and the fig. 17 impeller fig. 19
fig. 18
surface of the wear plate must be
between 0.3 - 0.6 mm (fig. 19). For
the 12" model, the distance between
the impeller and the front and rear
wear plates must be between 0.6 - 1
mm (fig. 22).
To achieve this, dimensions A and B wear
in figs. 17, 18, 20, 21 must be as plate
nearly as possible equal. To this end,
use the shims (25.2) (fig. 11)
supplied with spare mechanical
fig. 20 fig. 21 wear
seals. These shims are used to move
plates
the impeller further forward if it is too
far from the front wear plate or too
near the rear wear plate. The shims
should be mounted between the seal
support ring (25.1) (fig. 11) and the
impeller. Further adjustments can be
carried out using casing gaskets (and
rear wear plate gaskets on models
which fit these). The presence of the impeller fig. 22
casing gasket (43) (fig. 10) 0.5 mm
thick then creates the correct
distance (fig. 19).
13.8 Maintenance of the bearings (fig. 10)
The pump is supplied with the bearings already greased and does not require maintenance for the first 500 hours of operation.
The bearings in the bearing housing must be lubricated appropriately, avoiding the use of too much grease which can cause overheating
and, as a result, damage to the bearings.
13.9 Replacing the bearings
Empty the pump casing
Remove the casing, the head and the mechanical seal
Remove the flexible coupling hub and the shaft key
Remove the outer bearing cover (08)
Extract the shaft from the coupling side
Extract the bearings using a bearing extractor
