Intended use

96
For lifting with a crane, the pump must be supported by suitable belts or load ropes, as
shown. Place belts or load ropes in loops around the pump, which tighten from the pump's
own net weight.
The transport eyes on the motor are only for guiding when the load is being carried!
WARNING
Damaged transport lugs can break off and cause considerable
personal injury.
• Check the transport lugs before use for damage and secure fixation.
The transport eyes on the motor are only for transporting the motor, but are not approved
for transporting the complete pump!
DANGER
Risk of fatal injury from falling parts!
The pump itself and pump parts can be extremely heavy. Falling parts pose
a risk of cuts, crush injuries, bruises or impacts, which can be fatal.
• Always use suitable lifting equipment and secure parts against falling.
• Never stand underneath a suspended load.
• During storage and transport, as well as before all installation and as-
sembly work, ensure that the pump is in a safe position and standing
securely.
WARNING
Personal injury due to unsecured installation of the pump!
The base with the threaded holes is used for fixation only. When standing
freely, the pump might not be sufficiently stable.
• Never place the pump unsecured on the pump support feet.
The glanded pumps of the Stratos GIGA (in-line single) and Stratos GIGA B (monobloc)
series are intended for use as circulators in building services.
They may be used for:
• Hot-water heating systems
• Cooling and cold water circulation systems
• Industrial circulation systems
• Heat carrier circuits
• Irrigation
The pumps are only approved for the fluids specified in the "Technical data" section.
Installation within a building:
Typical installation locations are technical rooms within the building with other domestic
installations. No provision has been made for direct installation of the pump in rooms used
for other purposes (residential and work rooms). The installation location must be dry, well
ventilated and frost-resistant.
Installation outside a building (outdoor installation)
• Observe permissible environmental conditions and protection class.
• Install the pump in a housing as weather protection. Observe permissible ambient tem-
peratures (see "Technical data" table).
• Protect the pump against the effects of weather, for example, direct sunlight, rain and
snow.
• Protect the pump so that the condensate drain openings remain free of dirt.
• Take suitable measures to prevent the formation of condensation water.
Intended use also includes observance of these instructions. Any other use is regarded as
improper.
