3.1 Control modes and functions
Variable differential pressure Δp-v (I, II, III)

Recommended for two-pipe heating systems with radiators to reduce the flow noise at thermostatic valves.
The pump reduces the delivery head to half in the case of decreasing volume flow in the pipe network.
Electrical energy saving by adjusting the delivery head to the volume flow requirement and lower flow rates.
There are three pre-defined pump curves (I, II, III) to choose from.

NOTE
Factory setting: Δp-v, pump curve II

Constant speed (I, II, III)

Recommended for systems with fixed system resistance requiring a constant volume flow.
The pump runs in three prescribed fixed-speed stages (I, II, III).

Intended use

The high-efficiency circulators in the Wilo-Atmos PICO series are exclusively designed for circulating fluids in hot-water heating systems and similar systems with constantly changing volume flows.
Permitted fluids:

• Heating water according to VDI 2035 (CH: SWKI BT 102-01).
• Water-glycol mixtures* with a maximum of 50 % glycol.
  * Glycol has a higher viscosity than water. If glycol is added, the delivery date of the pump must be corrected to suit the mixing ratio.

NOTE
Only add ready-to-use mixtures to the system.
Do not use the pump to mix the fluid in the system.

Intended use includes observing these instructions and the data and markings on the pump.

Misuse Any use beyond the intended use is considered misuse and will result in the loss of all liability claims.

WARNING!
The danger of injury or material damage due to improper use!

• Never use non-specified fluids.
• Never allow unauthorized persons to perform work.
• Never operate the pump outside of the specified limits of use.
• Never carry out unauthorized conversions.
• Use authorized accessories only.
• Never operate with phase angle control.

Installation and electrical connection

6.1 Installation
May only be installed by qualified technicians.

WARNING!
Risk of burns due to hot surfaces!
Pump housing (1) and glandless pump motor (2) may become hot and result in burns on contact.

• During operation, touch the control module (6) only.
• Allow the pump to cool down before commencing any work.

WARNING!
Risk of burns due to hot fluids!
Hot fluids can result in scalding. Before installing or removing the pump, or undoing the housing screws (5), note the following:

• Allow the heating system to cool down completely.
• Close shut-off devices or drain the heating system.

Preparation

• Choose an installation point that is as easily accessible as possible.
• Observe the pump’s allowable installation position (Fig. 2), and rotate the motor head (2 + 6) if necessary.

CAUTION!
An incorrect installation position may damage the pump.

• Select the installation point in line with the allowable installation position (Fig. 2).
• The motor must always be installed horizontally.
• The electrical connection must never face upwards.
• Install shut-off devices upstream and downstream of the pump to facilitate pump replacement.

CAUTION!
Leaking water may damage the control module.

• Align the upper shut-off device such that leaking water cannot drip onto the control module (6).
• Align the upper shut-off device laterally.
• When installed in the feed of open systems, the safety supply must branch off upstream of the pump (EN 12828).
• Complete all welding and brazing tasks.
• Flush the pipe system.

Rotating the motor head

Rotate the motor head (2 + 6) before installing and connecting the pump.

• If necessary, remove the thermal insulation shell.

WARNING!
Risk of fatal injury from the magnetic field!
Risk of death for people with medical implants due to permanent magnets installed in the pump.

• Never remove the rotor.
• Hold the motor head (2 + 6) and unscrew the 4 housing screws (5).

CAUTION!
Damage to the inner gasket leads to leakages.

• Carefully rotate the motor head (2 + 6).
• Observe the allowable installation position (Fig. 2) and the direction arrow on the pump housing (1).
• Tighten (4-7.5 Nm) the 4 housing screws (5).
• Carefully rotate the motor head (2 + 6) without removing it from the pump housing (1).

Installing the pump
Observe the following points when installing the pump:

• Note the direction arrow on the pump housing (1).
• Install without tension, with a glandless pump motor horizontal (2).
• Place gaskets in the screwed connections.
• Screw on threaded pipe unions.
• Secure the pump with an open-end wrench against twisting and screwing tightly with the piping
• Re-mount the thermal insulation shell, if applicable.

CAUTION!
Insufficient heat dissipation and condensation water may damage the control module and the glandless pump motor.

• Do not thermally insulate the glandless pump motor (2).
• Ensure all condensate drain openings (3) are kept free.

6.2 Electrical connection
The electrical connection may only be performed by a qualified electrician.

DANGER!
Danger to life due to electrical voltage!
Immediate danger to life if live components are touched.

• Before commencing work, switch off the power supply and secure it against being switched on again.
• Never open the control module (6) and never remove control elements.

CAUTION!
Pulsed mains voltage can lead to damage to electronic
components.

• Never operate the pump with phase angle control.
• When switching the pump on or off using an external control unit, deactivate any voltage pulsing (e.g. phase angle control).
• For applications where it is not clear whether the pump is operated with pulsed voltage, get the control/system manufacturer to confirm that the pump is operated with sinusoidal AC voltage.
• Switching the pump on/off via triacs/solid-state relays must be examined on a case-by-case basis.

Preparation

• The current type and voltage must agree with the specifications on the rating plate (4).
• Maximum backup fuse: 10 A, slow-blow.
• Only operate the pump with sinusoidal AC voltage.
• Note switching frequency:
  – On/off switching operations via mains voltage ≤ 100/24 h.
  – ≤ 20/h for a switching frequency of 1 min. between switching on/off via mains voltage.
• The electrical connection must be made via a fixed connecting cable equipped with a connector device or an all-pole switch with a contact opening width of at least 3 mm (VDE 0700/Part 1).
• Use a connecting cable with a sufficient outer diameter (e.g. H05VV-F3G1.5) to protect against leaking water and to ensure strain relief at the threaded cable connection.
• Use a heat-resistant connecting cable where fluid temperatures exceed 90 °C.
• Ensure that the connecting cable does not make contact with either the pipes or the pump.

Fitting the Wilo-Connector

• Disconnect the connecting cable from the power supply.
• Observe the terminal allocations (PE, N, L).
• Connect and fit the Wilo-Connector (Fig. 3a to 3e).

Connecting the pump

• Earth the pump.
• Connect the Wilo-Connector (9) to the control module (6) until it snaps into place (Fig 3f).

Removing the Wilo-Connector

• Disconnect the connecting cable from the power supply.
• Remove the Wilo-Connector using a suitable screwdriver (Fig. 4).

Commissioning

Commissioning only by qualified technicians.

7.1 Venting

• Fill and vent the system correctly.
  The pump vents automatically when first started.

7.2 Setting the control mode
Select control mode

The LED selection of control modes and corresponding pump curves take place in clockwise succession.

• Press the operating button briefly (approx. 1 second).
   LEDs display the set control mode and pump curve.
  The following shows the various possible settings (for example constant speed/characteristic curve III):

	LED display	Control mode	Pump curve
1		Constant speed	II
2		Constant speed	I
3		Variable differential pressure Δp-v	III
4		Variable differential pressure Δp-v	II
5		Variable differential pressure Δp-v	I
6		Constant speed	III

• Pressing the button for the 6th time returns to the basic setting (constant speed / characteristic curve III).

NOTE
All settings and displays are retained if the power supply is interrupted.

Decommissioning

Shutting down the pump

Shut down the pump immediately in case of damage to the connecting cable or other electrical components.

• Disconnect the pump from the power supply.
• Contact Wilo customer service or a specialist technician.

Maintenance

Cleaning

• Carefully remove soiling from the pump on a regular basis using a dry duster.
• Never use liquids or aggressive cleaning agents.

Faults, causes and remedies

The troubleshooting must only be performed by a qualified specialist, and work on the electrical connection must only be performed by a qualified electrician.

10.1 Fault signals

• The fault signal LED indicates a fault.
