O3.DRP

4" single-phase oil-cooled PSC motor (1x220-230V / 50Hz)

Electric motors from series O3 are 2 pole asynchronous single-phase submersible motors designed to operate coupled to hydraulic parts with 4” Nema standard. Strong and reliable, they are made of materials suitable for contact with water and oil-cooled by FDA - Food Drug Administration approved dielectric fluid.
O3 motors require a start and run control panel, that has to include capacitor and manual reset amperometric protection.
the supply cable connector, removable for quick and easy maintenance is equipped with the DRP protection device. The DRP is an electronic device, integrated into the connection cable that guarantees optimal protection of the submersible pump against dry running and other possible installation faults or operation failures. In case of water shortage, the DRP stops the pump when the water is below its sensor. The DRP (observing a programmed time) restarts the motor when the water rises above its sensor.
 
APPLICATIONS
O3 oil-cooled motors ensure reliable working in 4” or larger diameter wells and are designed to be used for lifting, distribution, and pressurisation of water in water systems.
 
CHARACTERISTICS OF CONSTRUCTION

Automatic protections

Dry-running protection

Dry-running protection

The DRP completely protects the O3.DRP motor against lack of water in the well, without the aid of other equipment (probes, cables, sensors, control panels etc.). In case of dry running, the DRP automatically stops the pump. When the water level is restored in the well, the DRP restarts the motor after a programmed cycle time.

Protection against too frequent start&stops

Protection against too frequent start&stops

The DRP protects the O3.DRP motor against leaks in the piping system (also when the pressure tank is exhausted or its membrane is defective, or when there is a defective pressure switch) and too frequent starts and stops (for example if the tank is too small for the system). In such cases, to avoid potential damages, the DRP makes the pump enter the stand-by mode.

Low voltage protection

Low voltage protection

The DRP protects the O3.DRP motor against low voltage. Low voltage can occur, for example, if the section of the power cable is not adequate considering the motor power and the distance between the plug and the pump itself; or if a generator is faulty or undersized for the pump.

Information on a proper installation

  • Before installation, it is necessary to verify technical requirements of the given hydraulic part (thrust, power) to select the correct motor.
  • During installation of a motor, it is necessary to verify if the power supply voltage is correct.
  • The correct motor operation is guaranteed when the power cable section is correctly selected, considering the motor power and the distance between the pump and the plug itself.
  • If you are using a generator with an internal combustion engine, it is necessary that the generator’s power measured in kW (in continuous delivery) is three times the rated power in kW of the submersible pump.
  • To guarantee automatic operation mode (the pump starts and stops when open and close the tap) it is necessary to connect a pressure switch and a pressure tank of the correct size, if the plant is not already provided with them.
  • We recommend to install a proper cooling jacket in installations bigger than 10 cm, to guarantee the correct motor cooling flow.
  • The maximum quantity of sand allowed in the pumped water is 120 g/m³.
  • The DRP must NOT be used with a frequency inverter.
  • DRP doesn’t work with demineralized water (such as rain water).
  • DRP must not be used as a float.
  • The DRP must be immersed in the same water as the pump in order to ensure continuity between the DRP and the pump casing.
  • In order to reset the electronic protection, disconnect the pump power, wait 10 seconds, then plug it in again.
