3. Installation and operation
3.1 Installation
3.1.1 General installation instructions:
•
Sufficient space for installation, maintenance and service
•
Tighten all screw fittings if necessary during a pressure test or following the initial heating
3.1.2 General assembly instructions for protecting the pump
When installing the pump group, please also refer to the instructions of the pump manufacturer:
•
Only install a pump shaft horizontally
•
Install and connect pump group only in vertical position (ball valves on top)
•
Only operate the pump when filled and bled
•
Do not additionally insulate the connection box (the pump electronics must be kept cool)
3.1.3 Installation on a load-bearing, stable wall
1. Remove the supply and return line from the rear insulation shell – extend with additional
accessories as required (e.g. screw fittings, pump, pos. servomotor)
2. Position the lower insulation shell on the wall and mark the drill holes; alternatively:
Mark the drill holes according to the drawing
3. Drill 10-mm holes and fill with rawl plugs
4. Guide the pump power cable through the
lower insulation shell
5. Mount the lower insulation shell on the wall
with hexagonal bolts and washers.
6. Lock the supply and return lines into the lower
insulation shell or prevent them from falling
7. Fit the piping to the connections.
8. Lock the central insulation shell in place on the
lower shell and attach the front hood
Note: also observe other dimensions, such as H3,
see Chap. 2
3.1.4 Set-up of pump groups insulation (EPP housing) and seals
Complete insulation:
The closed design of the insulation means that there is effective shielding from the ambient
conditions (temperature and air humidity) in the area of use.
The multipart and closed insulation serves to minimise heat losses and reduces condensation within
the pump group.
