Fig. 5: Amacan with axial propeller

Design The pump is designed with an axial fluid inlet and an axial outlet. The hydraulic
system sits on the extended motor shaft. The shaft runs in common bearings.
Function The fluid enters the pump axially via a suction nozzle (inlet nozzle) (1) and is
accelerated outward in a rotating flow by the rotating impeller (2). The required
energy is transmitted from the electric motor (4) to the impeller (2) via the shaft (5).
In the diffuser housing (3) the kinetic energy of the fluid is converted into pressure
energy. The rotational movement of the diffusers diverts the fluid flow in axial
direction. The shaft passage through the casing is sealed towards the fluid with a
shaft seal (10). The shaft (5) runs in two rolling element bearings (6 and 8), which are
supported by the bearing housing (9) and the bearing bracket (7).
Sealing The pump is sealed by two bi-rotational mechanical seals in tandem arrangement.
A lubricant reservoir in-between the seal elements ensures cooling and lubrication of
the mechanical seals.
Monitoring The pump sets are equipped with various sensors.

Amacan P 27 of 100
DANGER
Incorrect setting of frequency inverter current limit
Explosion hazard!
▷ Set the current limit to max. 1.2 times the rated current indicated on the name
plate.
Selection When selecting the frequency inverter, check the following details:
▪ Data provided by the manufacturer
▪ Electrical data of the pump set, particularly the rated current
Start-up ▪ Ensure short start ramps (max. 5 s)
▪ Only start speed-controlled operation after 2 minutes at the earliest.
Pump start-up with long start ramps and low frequency may cause clogging.
Operation Observe the following limits when operating the pump set via frequency inverter:
▪ Only utilise up to 95 % of the motor power rating P2 indicated on the name
plate.
▪ Frequency range 25-50 Hz
Electromagnetic If the pump sets are operated via frequency inverter, RFI emissions will occur, the
compatibility level of which varies depending on the inverter used (inverter type, interference
suppression features, manufacturer). To ensure compliance of the drive system
consisting of submersible motor and frequency inverter with the limits stipulated by
EN 50081, it is imperative to observe the EMC information provided by the inverter
manufacturer. If the manufacturer recommends shielded power cables, a pump set
with shielded power cable must be used.
Interference immunity The pump set generally meets the requirements on interference immunity stipulated
by EN 50082. For monitoring the sensors installed, the operator must ensure
sufficient interference immunity by selecting and routing the cables in the plant
accordingly. No modifications are required on the power/control cable of the pump
set itself. Suitable analysing devices must be selected. In this case we recommend to
monitor the leakage sensor fitted inside the motor by means of a special relay
available from KSB.
