3. Applications and Technical Description
3.1. Applications
If the pump is used for cleaning or maintenance of
swimming pools, make sure that no persons stay in the
swimming pool during operation of the pump and that the
pump is self-assured by a 30 mA earth leakage circuit bre-
aker.
A Series pumps are designed for pumping waste water or
effluent containing sludge or soft solids.
The pumps are used for installations in public and private
sector, trade and industry.
The pumps must not be used for pumping of liquids contai-
ning great quantities of abrasive solids, like sand or stones.
Before the pumping of chemically aggressive liquids, the
resistance of the pump materials must be checked.
The pumps may be used for both temporary or permanent
installation. The installation can be free-standing on a base-
stand or by means of an auto-coupling guide rail
system (available as accessory).
