Suggested Installation
In a
submerged application
, the air
exhaust port of the pump must be
ported above the fluid line. Be certain
that the fluid being pumped is com-
patible with the materials on both the
airside and the wetted side of the
pump before the pump is submerged.
A
flooded suction installation
has
the pump datum line below the fluid
level. IMPORTANT: in flooded suc-
tion installations the pressure at the
fluid inlet of the pump should never
exceed 69 kPa (10 psi).
In
suction lift installations
the pump
datum is above the fluid line.
IMPORTANT: each pump has differ-
ent lift capabilities. Be sure to verify
the lift capability of a particular pump
before installing it into a system.

recommended in a system, including valves, pressure
gauges, air regulators, filters, and surge suppressors.
