B1 BravaDOS INSTALLATION
B1.1 First installation
This guidelines ensure your safety. Please read them completely and carefully before installation
and keep them in a safe place.
Warning!
Before the equipment installation please verify that the water supplied to the
equipment fulfils the requirements of European drinking water directives (Directive
98/83/CE).
Warning!
The Manufacturer declines all liability for damages to property or persons
resulting from the incorrect installation of the pump and/or the installation of the pump in a
system not complying with the laws in force.
BravaDOS is not equipped, by standard, with any flooding-control system or other devices able to
detect, control or alarm in case of runaway water losses. In case, consider, apart, an adequate anti
flooding device. If necessary, provide a suitable anti-flooding device separately.
To avoid external contamination, always keep the pump in its original closed box and remove it
only immediately before the installation. During transport and storage, the equipment must not be
subjected to temperatures below 5 ° C and above 40 ° C.
Do not install BravaDOS downstream of boilers or in devices involving the transit, inside the pump,
of water at higher than 30°C temperature. Install BravaDOS upstream of boilers or devices to
protect.
BravaDOS cannot be used to treat closed loop water, closed loop heating systems, process water,
sewer water or any other applications not cited in this manual. Before installing BravaDOS or any
other equipment for polyphosphates dosage upstream of solar boilers or water storage tank where
temperature could rise, for long times, above 60 °C please contact Acqua Brevetti SRL o technical
office. The permanence of AcquaSIL 20/40
®
and, at large, of all the polyphosphates in storages at
high temperature may imply the partial loss of anti scaling effectiveness.
B1.2 Site installation requirements
The installation of the pump is a significant modification to the drinking water plumbing system,
then it must be carried out in a workmanlike manner by a qualified technician, in compliance with
local laws, regulations, and standards.
BravaDOS pump must be installed in a hygienically suitable, dry, clean place, indoors, away from:
frost, direct exposure to sunlight, humidity and atmospheric agents (rain, snow, hail).
The plumbing system created for the installation of equipment connected to the water supply
network must be equipped with a system capable of ensuring the non-return in the network of the
treated water, as well as with a manual or automatic by-pass valve system that allows the delivery
of untreated water, interrupting the supply of the treated one.
Do not install the pump in wells, near drains, in foul-smelling places. Do not install it where there
may be chemical vapors, gases or fumes of any kind. Avoid installation in confined spaces that do
not allow an easy performance of the ordinary and extraordinary maintenance operations.
The permissible limit values of the environmental parameters for the installation are as follows:
Minimum/maximum ambient temperature (°C): 5
–
40.
Warning!
Make sure that plumbing system be hygienically safe and does not present risks
of bacterial growth (for example dead branches, sources of bacterial proliferation
…).
This equipment must not be used to treat water having microbiological parameters not in
compliance with drinking standards.
