A typical installation showing all the
components that are recommended in a
system, including valves, pressure gauges, air
regulators, filters, and surge suppressors.
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
compatible 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 suction 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 different lift capabilities. Be sure to
verify the lift capability of a particular pump
before installing it into a system.
