7 INSTALLATION

7.1 SITE OF INSTALLATION

• Before immersing the electropump in the pit or tank,
ensure that the place is free from sand or solid
sediment.
• In case there is sediment, accurately clean the site whe
re it is to be placed.
• Keep the pump at least 1 mt. raised above the bottom
of the pit so that any deposits that form after
installation will not be sucked up.
• Remove the sediment periodically.
• It is very important to ensure that the water level never
falls below the body of the pump.

7.2 WORKING CONDITIONS

• Water temperature: from 0°C to +50°C (Viginox MXO
+40ºC).
• Pump body always completely immersed.
• The pump cannot operate dry.
• Installation in vertical or horizontal position.
• The housing pit must be frost-free.
• Maximum depth of immersion 5 mt. (below water level)
7.3 PIPING
• Put the pump into the liquid to be pumped (Inspect for
the max. pumping height, refer to the performance
curve)
• The hydraulic connection of the pump may be made
with iron or plastic parts, either rigid or flexible.
• Avoid any kind of choking of the output pipe.
• It is advisable to use pipes with an internal diameter at
least equal to that of the delivery pipe, so as to avoid a
fall in the performance of the pump and the possibility
of clogging.
• For the version with a float switch, ensure that the latter
can move freely (see Paragraph 9.2. "REGULATING
THE FLOAT SWITCH").
The size of the pit must always be calculated in relation
to the quantity of incoming water and to the flow rate of
the pump so as not so subject the motor to an exces-
sive number of starts.
• To lower the pump, always use a rope or chain fixed be-
forehand to the upper handle on top of the pump.
Never use the power cable to lift the electropump.
• When using in deep wells, it is advisable to secure the
power cable to the delivery pipe with clamps,
every two/three metres.
