Installation - Kessel Aqualift F Compact Directives Pour La Pose, Le Service Et La Maintenance

Caution
The control unit should be installed in a frost free,
dry, weather protected area. During storage and
installation of the system, the pump and sensors
should not come in contact with water. In the case
that the area is in a location at risk of flooding, the
control unit should be installed in a secure place to
assure no flood water reaches it. Before installing
the KESSEL Aqualift F Compact lifting station be
sure that no damage occurred during shipping.
2.1 Connections
2.1.1 Side / Lateral inlet connection
The system comes with a DN 100 lateral inlet
connection. The inlet connection to the Aqualift
F should have a slope of at least 2 %.
Caution
If additional inlets are needed, only drill out the
inlet holes on the designated areas. Improperly
drilling any holes into the Aqualift F body could
cause irreparable damage.
Holes should be drilled with care and precision
using the KESSEL core hole drill attachment (Ar-
ticle Number 50101).
2.1.2 Outlet pressure connection
Outlet pressure connection: 1 ½ inch exterior
thread
Note: Connection of pressure pipe to sys-
tem must carried out without tension.

2. Installation

The outlet pressure connection set (Article Num-
ber 28040) includes a 5 meter long pressure hose
with an outer diameter of 40 mm and an adapter
with screw connection. A PVC pressure pipe with
an outer diameter of 40mm can also be inser-
ted and glued into the outlet of the Aqualift F.
The outlet pressure pipe should be laid above
the backwater level (normally defined as ground
level) and then immediately enlarged to a DN 70
ventilated pipe. Non certified pipe such as HT
pipe should not be used as a pressurized outlet.
In the case that the outlet pressure pipe is to be
laid in the concrete slab it should be de-coupled
with the slab in order to prevent any sound /
vibration from the pipe to be transferred to the
concrete slab as well as prevent any damage to
the connections.
Caution
The air pressure hose should be laid with a cons-
tant slope from the Aqualift F to the control unit
in order to allow any condensation water to drain
out of the air hose.
