The pump may be transported and stored in vertical
or horizontal position. Make sure that it cannot roll or fall
over. For longer periods of storage, the pump should be
protected against moisture, frost or heat.
6. Electrical Connection
Before operation, an expert check must secure that
the required electrical protection measures exist. The
connection to ground, earthing, isolating transformer, fault
current breaker or fault voltags circuit must correspond to
the guidelines set forth by the responsible power plant.
The voltage required in the technical data sheet
must correspond to the existing line voltage.
Submersible pumps used outside of buildings must
have a cable with a minimum length of 10m.
Make sure that the electrical pin-and-socket connec-
tions are installed flood- and moisture-safe. Before start-
ing operation check the cable and the plug against dam-
ages.
The end of the pump power supply cable must not be
submerged in order to prevent water from penetrating
through the cable into the motor.
The normal separate motor starter/control box of
standard as well as of explosion proof pumps must
not be installed in explosive enviroments.
6.1. Connection of 3 Ph-Motors
Pumps with 3 Ph-motors must be connected to a sepa-
rate control box with motor starter, available from the
HOMA accessory program. If any other control unit is
used, make sure that the thermal relay in the motor
starter is set according to the nominal current consump-
tion of the pump motor (see data on pump label).
Motor-Start
The pump motors are designed either for DOL- or Star-
delta-start (check the designation on the pump label).
Standard motors up to 4 kW are designed for direct-on-
line (DOL) start. All motors with 400 V voltage indication
on the pump label have their motor windings internally
star-connected for operation at 400 V / 3 Ph power sup-
ply. The motor cable wires indicated U, V, W must be
connected to the power supply wires indicated L

through the motor starter according to fig. 1.
Standard motors above 4 kW are prepared for star-delta
start. This means that each end of each of the stator
windings is connected to one pump cable wire. The wires
are marked U
1
/U

, V

and W

. For star-delta start,
the pump must be connected to an appropriate starter
box (see fig. 2 and 3).
If a motor, wich is prepared for star-delta start as de-
scribed above, is supposed to operate with direct-on-line
(DOL) start at 400V/3Ph power supply, the pump cable
wires must be delta-connected in the starter box (see fig.
4).
6.2. Temperature Sensors
All A series pumps have a set of temperature sensors
built in the stator windings. The contact of these sensors
opens in case of overtemperature and switches off the
motor power supply.Standard models have the sensors
connected to the motor power supply cable, the wire ends
marked T
1
and T
3
.
They must be connected to the safety circuit of the control
box in order to provide an automatic re-start of the motor,
when the motor cools. The switch-off temperature of the
sensors for standard models is approx. 130°C.
Explosion proof models have a set of temperature sen-
sors built-in additionally to the standard sensor as de-
scribed above, with a higher switch-off temperature of
approx. 140°C, connected to the motor cable, the wire
ends marked T
1
and T
2
.
Ex-sensors must be connected to a special relay in the
starter box in order to provide manual pump re-start (see
fig. 1 and 2).
6.3. Oil Chamber Seal Condition Sensors
Upon request, A series pumps are available with a
moisture sensor device of the pump oil-chamber.
It measures the electrical resistance of the oil in the
chamber. In case of water entering the chamber through
the shaft seals, the resistance will change.
The standard models have one sensor, that measures the
resistance against ground (motor housing). The sensor is
connected to the pump cable, the wire end is marked S
1
(see fig. 1and 2).
The explosion-proof models have two sensors between
which the resistance is measured. The sensors are con-
nected to the pump cable, the wire ends are marked
S
1
and S2 (see fig. 1 and 2).
The sensor(s) must be connected to a tripping unit, which
is connected to the safety circuit of the pump controller.
For explosion-proof models there has to be an intrinsi-
cally-safe relay. The tripping unit should have an adjust-
able sensitivity of 0 - 100 k, standard setting is approx.
50 k.
6.4. Check of Direction of Rotation
3 Ph-pumps must be checked for correct direction of rota-
tion before start-up. On original HOMA control boxes a
control-light is illuminated, if the direction of rotation is not
correct.
With smaller pumps the direction of rotation may be
checked by watching the start-jek. Put the pump vertical
on the ground and lift one edge. Start the motor. Viewed
from above, the unit must jerk anti-clockwise as the cor-
rect direction of rotation is clockwise. With bigger pumps
the check may also be done by watching the rotation of
the impeller through the discharge or the suction inlet.
With pumps already installed, the check may be done by
comparing head (pump pressure) and flow (quantity of
water) at different direction of rotation. The direction that
gives higher head and flow is the correct one.
If the direction of rotation is wrong, interchange two of the
phases of the electric power supply. Using an original
HOMA control box with CEE-plug, this may be done by a
180° turning of the small round pole-socket at the plug-
end with a screwdriver.
