Thank you very much for choosing the product of our company. Please be sure to read the
Operation Manual carefully before installation of the product and keep it properly, and misuse of
the product will cause personal injury or property damage.
The users must strictly observe the “Notice”, “Warning” and other terms and signs contained
in the Manual.
Statement: SHIMGE shall not be liable for follow loss or damage suffered as a result of failure to
comply with the content of the manual:
·Pump failure resulting from disassembly or maintenance conducted by non-professional people
without certificate, or using the pump beyond its operating conditions;
·Losses caused by voltage, machinery or chemistry;
·Environmental pollution caused by pumping dangerous medium.

1. When the electric pump is working, if you want to adjust the pump location or there is any other
action to touch the pump, you must cut off the power first. It is strictly forbidden to wash, swim and
herd, etc. near the pump working face in order to avoid occurrence of accidents.
2. When transporting or installing the electric pump, it is strictly forbidden to lift the electric pump by
grasping the cable for fear of the damage of the cable and causing leakage or electric shock.
3. On account of any safety principle, maintenance in any form shall be conducted after cutting off
the power of the water pump.
Alcohol
The electric pump shall be installed at a cool and dry place. External motor protection should be
used to eliminate environmental concerns, or it will easily cause the acceleration of the ageing of the
water pump and the leakage danger. Motor is not waterproof and should never be submersed into
any liquid. Do not allow water to spray directly onto motor to avoid the dampness of the motor which
may damage the winding insulation and thus cause the leakage accident.
When taking anti-freezing measures for the water pump in winter, do not cover combustibles on the
motor or pump for anti-freezing in case of causing fire accident and be sure not to cover the thermal
insulation material on the motor or it will cause poor ventilation and heat dissipation to easily lead to
fire.

II. Product Overview
Vortex-type Micro Clean Water Pumps (hereinafter referred to as the “electric pump”)
include: SQm, QB, WZB, AWZB, PW; the electric pump consists of the motor, water pump and
seal these three parts. The motor is the asynchronous motor. The impeller structure of the vortex-
type pump is the vortex type which can achieve high head. WZB, AWZB and PW have the self-
priming function while QB and SQm do not. PW and AWZB are equipped with the auto control
system, which can realize the water discharge once you open the outlet valve and the electric
pump works and once you close the outlet valve, the electric pump will automatically stop working
without need to cut off the power artificially. Between the pump and the motor, the single
mechanical seal is adopted and the O-ring is adopted at the fixed seam allowance for static seal.
PW-Z series automatic self-priming pumps are configured with flow switch, pressure switch
and circuit board. Pumps can collect flow and pressure data through flow switch and pressure
switch and automatically on/off after analysing by the circuit board. PW-Z series pumps have the
functions of water-load protection, delay start and anti-jamming the pump is in the standby state.
