Installation and operating instructions • Wilo-Stratos GIGA, Wilo-Stratos GIGA B • Ed.01/2023-05
WARNING
Risk of personal injury and property damage due to improper
handling!
• Install only after completion of all welding and soldering work and
after the pipeline system has been flushed, if required.
– Dirt can cause the pump to fail.
• The pump must be protected from the weather and installed in a frost-/dust-free, well
ventilated, oscillation-isolated environment that is not potentially explosive. The pump
must not be installed outdoors! Observe the specifications in section "Intended use"!
• Mount the pump in a readily accessible place. This makes it easier to complete inspec-
tions, maintenance (e.g. mechanical seal change) or replacement in the future.
Observe the minimum axial distance between the wall and the fan cover of the motor:
free removal dimension of at least 200 mm + diameter of the fan cover.
• Install a device for attaching hoisting gear above the set-up site of the pumps. Total
weight of the pump: see catalogue or data sheet.
CAUTION
A faulty foundation or incorrect installation of the unit!
A faulty foundation or incorrect installation of the unit on the foundation
can lead to defects of the pump.
• These defects are not covered by the warranty.
• Never set up the pump unit on unfortified surfaces or surfaces that can-
not bear loads.
NOTICE
For vibration-isolated installations, some pump types require simultan-
eous separation of the base block itself from the building structure by
means of an elastic intermediate layer (e.g. cork or Mafund plate).
WARNING
Personal injury and property damage due to improper handling!
Transport lugs mounted on the motor housing can tear out if the load is
too heavy. This can lead to serious injuries and damage to the product!
• Only lift the pump with approved lifting gear (e.g. block and tackle,
crane). See also chapter "Transport and storage".
• Transport lugs mounted on the motor housing are only permitted for
transporting the motor!
NOTICE
Simplify subsequent work on the unit!
• To ensure the entire unit does not have to be emptied, install shut-off
valves upstream and downstream of the pump.
If need be, the necessary non-return valves are to be provided.
