1GENERALINFORMATION

1.1 USES

TheAGE4circulatingpumpsareusedforthetransferofliquidmediumwithinsystemsforhot‐waterheating,air‐

conditioningandventilation.Theyaredesignedassingleortwinvariable‐speedpumpingaggregateswherethe

speedisregulatedbyelectronicdevice.Thepumpconstantlymeasurespressureandflowandadjuststhespeed

accordingtothesetpumpmode.

Themainpurposeofthetwinpumpisuninterruptedoperationifoneofthepumpsfails.Commonhydraulic

housingisequippedwithachange‐overflapandtwopumpheads,separatelyconnectedtotheelectricalgrid.

1.3 PUMPMAINTENANCE,SPAREPARTSANDDECOMMISSIONING

Pumpsaredesignedtooperatewithoutmaintenanceforseveralyears.Sparepartswillbeavailableforatleast3

yearsfromthewarrantyperiodexpiration.Thisproductanditscomponentsmustbedisposedofinan

environmentallyfriendlymanner.Usewastecollectionservices,ifthisisnotpossible,contactthenearest

ARMSTRONGPumpsServiceorauthorizedrepairers.

2SAFETY

Theseinstructionsshouldbestudiedcarefullybeforeinstallingoroperatingthepump.Theyaremeanttohelp

youwithinstallation,useandmaintenanceandtoincreaseyoursafety.Installationshouldonlybeperformed

withregardstolocalstandardsanddirectives.Onlyqualifiedpersonnelshouldmaintainandservicethese

products.

Failureinfollowingtheseinstructionscancausedamagetotheuserorproductandcanvoidwarranty.Safety

functionsareonlyguaranteedifthepumpisinstalled,usedandmaintainedasdescribedinthismanual.

3.2 PUMPMEDIUM

Pumpmediumcanbepurewateroramixtureofpurewaterandglycol,whichisappropriateforcentralheating

system.WatermustmeetwaterqualitystandardVDI2035.Themediummustbefreefromaggressiveor

explosiveadditives,freefrommixturesofmineraloilsandsolidorfibrousparticles.Thepumpshouldnotbe

usedforpumpingflammable,explosivemediaandinanexplosiveatmosphere.

AGE4isdesignedexclusivelyforpumpingsanitarywater.

Permanentmagnetrotorinsidethepumpispronetoaccumulatingmagneticparticles(magnetite)onitssurface,

whichcanleadtoabrasionofbearingsandrotorcanorevenblockingtherotor.Althoughthepumpisbuiltina

waythattheeffectofmagneticparticlesisminimal,failuresofbearings,rotorcansandblockedrotorsarenota

subjectofclaims.

Toimprovepumpresistancetomagnetitewerecommendtheuseofmagnetitefilter.

4.1 INSTALLATIONINTOPIPELINES

Thepumpmustbeinstalledintopipelineswithitselectromotoraxisinhorizontalposition(figure1)andinone

oftheallowedpositions(figure2).Directionarrowonhydraulichousingshowsdirectionofwaterflow.Forpump

tooperatewithminimalvibrationsandnoise,itisrecommendedtoinstallpumpinpartofthepipelinewithout

curvesforatleast5D(D=ratedpipediameter)frombothsideofhydraulichousing.

PumpwithsuffixFisdesignedtobebuiltwithconnectingflanges,usingallscrews.Theconnectingflangesare

designedsothepumpcanbeinstalledinPN6orPN10nominalpressurepipelines.Becauseofthecombined

flangedesign,washersmustbeusedonthepumpside,wheninstallingthepump.

Desiredheadorientationcanbeachievedbyrotatingthepumpheadaccordingtothehydraulichousing(Picture

3).Ifthepumpisalreadyinthesystemwithmedium,itisnecessarytofirstclosevalvesbeforeandafterthe

pump,torotatethehead.Unscrewingfourscrewswhichholdtheheadattachedtothehydraulichousingmakes

rotatingpossible.Beforefixingheadbackon,payspecialattentiontothepositionofsealbetweenhydraulic

housingandheadofthepump.

Ambientaroundthepumpshouldbedryandilluminatedasappropriateandthepumpshouldnotbeindirect

contactwithanyobjects.PumpsealspreventsdustandparticlesfromenteringasprescribedbyIPclass.Make

surethatthedistributionboxcoverismountedandthatthecableglandsaretightenedandaresealing.

Pumpwillprovidethelongestlifetimewithambientatroomtemperatureandmoderatemediumtemperature.

Prolongedoperationatelevatedtemperaturescouldincreasewear.Agingisacceleratedbyhighpowerandhigh

temperatures.



Beforefirstrunofthepump,thesystemmustbefiledwithmediumandevacuated.Pumpmusthavepressureon

thesuctionsidetooperateproperly.Onthefirstrunitispossibleforthepumptomakenoiseuntilitis

automaticallyevacuated.



Misconnectionoroverloadcouldcausepumpshutdownorevenpermanentdamage.



Pumpsmightbeheavy.Provideyourselfhelpifneeded.

Pumpmustnotbeusedinthesafetypipelines.

Pumpshouldnotbeusedasaholderduringwelding!

Whenreassembling,careshouldbetakentoensuresealfit.Failingthat,watercouldcause

damagetopumpsinternalparts.

Drainsbetweenpumpmotorhousingandhydraulichousingmustbeleftfree(shouldnotbe

thermallyinsulated),asitcouldinterferewithcoolingandcondensedrainage(figure1

)

.

Hotmediumcancauseburns!Themotorcanalsoreachtemperaturesthatcouldcause

injury.
