CHAPTER 3

INSTALLATION

Install the pump on a flat surface and secure to prevent movement during start-up and operation, ensuring that
there are no obstructions to the regular flow of cooling air delivered by the motor fan.
The pump must be installed in a well-ventilated area, and relative humidity in the environment must not exceed 50%
at 40°C (condensate free).
Ensure that the installation site is sufficiently sized to enable assembly of the pump on the system and future
maintenance operations.
Ensure that the pump installation room or site is not subject to the risk of flooding by the leakage of liquids or other
events that may cause submersion of the pump itself.
Ensure that the ambient temperature does not exceed the values specified on the data plate.
DANGER
To avoid breakdown of the system with the risk of physical injury, use pipelines, connectors and
accessories suited to the maximum operating pressure values.
DANGER
All pipeline connections must be made by qualified personnel in conformity with current local standards.
To avoid the need to drain the system in the event of pump maintenance, the installation of a shutoff valve is
recommended, on the suction and delivery pipelines.
DANGER
If the pump remains in operation with the delivery valve closed for more than a few seconds, the liquid will
overheat. Never use the pump with the shutoff valve closed on the delivery side.
The pump should be installed in such a way to avoid the risk of air pockets in the body or pipelines, in particular on
the suction side of the pump.
