5.2 Installation tips
• For easy deaeration of the dosing head, install a ball
valve (11i) with bypass line (back to the dosing tank)
immediately after the discharge valve.
• In the case of long discharge lines, install a non-return
valve (12i) in the discharge line.

Installation with ball valve and non-return valve
• When installing the suction line, observe the following:
– Keep the suction line as short as possible. Prevent it from
becoming tangled.
– If necessary, use swept bends instead of elbows.
– Always route the suction line up towards the suction valve.
– Avoid loops which may cause air bubbles.

Installation of suction line
• For non-degassing media with a viscosity similar to water, the
pump can be mounted on the tank (observe the maximum
suction height).
• Flooded suction preferred.
• For media with a tendency to sedimentation, install the suction
line with filter (13i) so that the suction valve remains a few
millimetres above the possible level of sedimentation.

Tank installation
• Note for suction-side installation: In dosing systems with a
suction line longer than 1 metre, depending on the dosing flow,
it may be necessary to install a properly sized pulsation
damper (4i) immediately before the pump suction valve.
