9. Delivery, transport, storage
Check the extinguishing water booster set care-
fully for transport damage and missing parts on
delivery, and transport and store them correctly
before installation.
9.1 Delivery
The entire sprinkler pump system is delivered from factory in an
open wooden box or in a closed box made of wood/plywood de-
signed for transportation with forklift or pallet trucks.
9.2 Transport
Warning
When lifting the entire extinguishing water boost-
er set, never use the lifting eyes of the individual
components or the manifolds. Use only suitable
lifting equipment in proper condition. See also
the weight specifications on the nameplate.
When lifting, the lifting point should always be above the centre of
gravity of the sprinkler pump system.
9.3 Storage
Store the extinguishing water booster set in such
a way that corrosion and damage are avoided.
In order to prevent water, dust, etc. from entering the sprinkler
pump, all openings must be covered appropriately until the pipes
are installed. If this is not complied with, the costs involved in
dismantling the sprinkler pump to remove foreign bodies after com-
missioning are considerable.
Turn the pump shaft manually once a month to prevent the
mechanical shaft seal from seizing up.
10. Installation
Warning
The extinguishing water booster set must be
installed and connected in accordance with local
regulations and by qualified personnel.
Installation of the extinguishing water booster
set must be carried out in accordance with the
following instructions. If these instructions are
not followed, malfunctions can result which can
cause damage to the sprinkler pump system.
10.1 Mounting
10.1.1 Installation site
Warning
Installation and operation in a potentially
explosive environment are not permissible.
Warning
The control cabinet must be placed so that water
from the pump or pipework cannot pose any dan-
ger.
Warning
The permissible floor loading must not be
exceeded. The weight of the sprinkler pump
system is stated on the nameplate.
In case of an installation on a foundation also
consider the weight of the foundation.
The extinguishing water booster set Fire RS EN CR with its
associated control is only suitable for indoor installation.
It must be installed in a well ventilated, dry and frost-free location.
Especially the control cabinet should not be exposed to direct solar
radiation.
The extinguishing water booster set should be positioned on an
even and solid surface, for instance a concrete floor or founda-
tion.
Allow sufficient clearance around the extinguishing water booster
set to enable inspection, repair and assembly work.
10.1.2 Foundation
We recommend that you install the extinguishing water booster set
on a concrete foundation which is heavy enough to provide perma-
nent and rigid support for the entire system. The foundation must
be capable of absorbing any vibration, normal strain or shock.
As a rule of thumb, the weight of the concrete foundation should
be 1.5 times the weight of the extinguishing water booster set.
The concrete foundation must have an absolutely level and even
surface. In the foundation, install appropriate anchorage dowels to
fasten the sprinkler pump system.
When setting up the foundation, make sure that the foundation is
200 mm larger in length and width than the dimensions of the base
frame.
The minimum height of the foundation (hf) can be calculated as fol-
lows, if the mass of the foundation is assumed to be 1.5 times the
total mass of the sprinkler pump system:

10.1.3 Pump system
Place the extinguishing water booster set on the foundation or an
even floor and anchor it with adequately sized bolts. The entire
base frame must be supported.
10.1.4 Piping

f
=
The pipework must not stress the pump housing
or transfer any forces to the pump housing. Non-
compliance may damage the pumps.
The pipework connected to the extinguishing water booster set
must be of an adequate size and installed as straight as possible.
Install the pipes so that air locks are avoided, see fig.

Fig. 9
Recommendations for pipe installation
The pipes are connected to the manifolds of the extinguishing wa-
ter booster set. Use the end not closed by a screw cap or blanking
flange. Arrows on the pump base show the direction of flow of
water through the pump.
Secure the pipes close to the sprinkler pump on the suction and
discharge side with pipe brackets attached to the building (wall,
ceiling, floor).
10.1.5 Control
Warning
When drilling holes, make sure not to damage
any wires or water and gas pipes. Furthermore,
ensure safe installation.
Mount the control cabinet on the wall as close as possible to the
pump system and within view of the pump system by means of
screws. Drill holes into the wall or floor according to the drilling
template on the back of the control cabinet, and use dowels and
screws of adequate size.
