Installation
5.1 Preparation of installation
Ensure the following conditions:
• Machine freely accessible from all sides
• Do not close ventilation grids and holes
• Sufficient space for installing and removing pipes and for maintenance work, particularly for the installa-
tion and deinstallation of the machine
• No external vibration effects
• Do not suck any hot exhaust air from other machines into the cooling system
Oil filling point (Fig. 2- 3/H), oil sight glass (Fig. 2- 3/I) and oil drain (Fig. 2- 3/K) must easily be
available.
The cooling air inlets(Fig. 2- 3/E) and the cooling air outlets (Fig. 2- 3/F) must be
at least
30 cm
away
from the adjacent walls. Cooling air coming out must not be sucked in again.
5.2 Installation
WARNING
Risk of burns due to hot surfaces!
When the machine is at operating temperature the surface temperatures on the com-
ponents may rise to above 70 °C. This can cause serious burns. Highly flammable
materials can catch fire.
Ø
Install the pump in a way that touching of hot surfaces (mainly silencer and pipe-
lines) is excluded.
Ø
If necessary, barriers or protective grating must be installed.
Ø
Pumps may not be installed near flammable or highly flammable materials.
CAUTION
Burns due to hot exhaust gases!
Place the freely blowing machine in a way that hazards due to hot exhaust gases are
prevented.
NOTICE
Property damage caused by improper installation!
Improper erection and installation can damage the machine.
Ø
The machine may only be operated when it is set up horizontally
(Max. inclination: 8 ° in all directions).
Ø
Secure the machine against tipping over and falling.
Ø
The floor must be plane and even.
Ø
The bearing surface must be designed to be able to carry the weight of the
machine.
Ø
If a non-return valve is integrated in the pump, it may not be removed.
An output reduction is noticeable when installed at more than 1000 m above sea level. In this case,
please contact us.
It is possible to install the machine on a firm base without anchoring. When installing on a sub-
structure we recommend fixing it with flexible buffers.
