5. LOCATION
Warning:
Do not install the pump in enclosed or poorly ventilated environments where conditions may be unfavourable for
the presence of staff. Ensure that there is enough light on the pump for the installer.
- Fit the pump underneath the water level in the pool to improve pump performance.
- Where a self-priming pump is to be fitted above the water level, the pressure differential to the pump suction should
not be higher than 0.02 MPa (2 mH2O), ensuring that the suction pipe is as short as possible as a longer pipe would
increase suction time and the installation’s load losses.
- Self-priming Kivu pumps are 3cv ,4cv and 5.5cv models with prefilter.
- Make sure that the pump is safe from possible flooding and receives dry ventilation.
6. INSTALLATION AND ASSEMBLY
- Our pumps may only be assembled and installed in pools or ponds that are compliant with HD 384.7.702. Should
you have any doubts, please consult your specialist.
- Fit the pump horizontally due to the pre-filter. The pumps are fitted with a pre-filter with a basket inside to collect any
large particles, as they may damage the hydraulic part inside the pump.
- All pumps are fitted with a foot with holes in it to anchor it to the ground.
INSTALLATION
- The pumps should be installed horizontally.
- The pumps need a free space of 0.5 m behind the motor and at
least 1 m above the motor so that lifting equipment can be used.
