5. Installation

5.1.

General installation information

During the entire process of installation, the device must not be connected to the
electrical mains.
The pump should be installed in a dry place with an ambient temperature not to
exceed 40 °C and not to fall below 5 °C. The pump and the entire connection system
have to be protected from frost and other climatic influences.
When installing the device, please make sure that the motor is sufficiently ventilated.
All connection lines have to be perfectly tight since leaking lines may affect the performance of the
pump and cause considerable damage. Therefore, please use Teflon tape to seal the contact surfaces
between the threaded sections of the lines and the connection with the pump. This use of sealing
material such as Teflon tape is the only way to ensure an airtight assembly.
When tightening threaded connections, please do not apply excessive force which may cause
damage.
When laying the connection pipes, you should make sure that the pump is not exposed to any form of
weight, vibration or tension. Moreover, the connection lines must not contain any kinks or an adverse
slope.
Please observe the illustrations, too, which are contained as an attachment at the end of the present
operating instructions. The numeric and other details included in brackets below refer to these
illustrations.
5.2. Installation of the suction line
The intake of the suction line has to be equipped with a check valve (or non-return
valve) and an intake filter.
Please use a suction line (2) having the same diameter as the suction port (1) of the pump. If the
suction height (HA) exceeds 4 m, however, it is recommendable to use a 25% larger diameter -
including appropriate reducer elements for the connectors.
The intake of the suction line has to be equipped with a check valve (3) - or non-return valve - and an
intake filter (4). The filter will keep away larger dirt particles contained in the water which might clog or
even damage the piping. The check valve will prevent the pressure to escape after the pump has cut
out. Moreover, it simplifies the venting of the suction line by enabling water to be filled in. The check
valve with the intake filter - i.e. the entirety of the intake section of the suction port - must be immersed
by at least 0.3 m below the surface of the liquid to be pumped (HI). This will prevent air from being
taken in. In addition, please ensure a sufficient distance of the suction line from both the ground and
the sides of water courses, rivers, ponds etc in order to prevent stones, plants etc from being sucked
in.
5.3. Installation of the pressure line
The pressure line (11) conveys the liquids to be discharged from the pump to the point of withdrawal.
To avoid dynamic flow losses, one should use a pressure line having at least the same diameter as
