• How do I prime my EBARA surface pump?

  To prime an EBARA surface pump (such as the CDX or AGA series), unscrew the hexagonal filling plug located on the top of the pump casing. Fill the pump body with clean water until it overflows, then screw the plug back on tightly to prevent air from entering the system.

• What type of oil is used in EBARA submersible pumps?

  EBARA submersible pumps typically use Turbine Oil No. 32 (ISO VG-32) or equivalent for the mechanical seal lubrication. Check the specific maintenance manual for your model ensuring the correct volume and type.

• How often should I perform maintenance on my EBARA grinder pump?

  For submersible grinder pumps like the TSBT or DG series, it is recommended to inspect the pump every 6 months, checking for wear on the cutter components and ensuring the oil level is adequate. Insulation resistance should be measured annually.

• What do the error codes on the E-Drive or controller indicate?

  Error codes on EBARA controllers (like the EP-PRO or inverter units) indicate specific faults such as dry running, overcurrent, or voltage irregularities. Refer to the 'Troubleshooting' section of your specific control panel manual to decode the signals and apply the correct reset procedure.
