6.3 Installation on the intake side
The installation of the intake requires special attention, since only correct mounting and sealing ensures
trouble-free operation of the system. For fault-free functioning, ensure the guidelines concerning intake
height and intake length are followed carefully (see Chapter 4.2.).
6.3.1 Installation of a protective conduit pipe
The intake line must be installed in a (DN100) protective conduit pipe in order to ensure all intake lines
and pipes are protected from damage and can be accessed freely at any time. In order to avoid water
accumulating in the conduit, it must be installed with > 1 % slope back towards the tank.
In general, all lines carried in the protective pipe should pass through a wall bush (for example
INTEWA MD100 Article number: 61 00 50), at the house. Through this bush, the intake pipe and the float
switch cable are routed and sealed by a pressed rubber plate. This prevents water from outside entering
the basement/garage/utility room. The wall bush must be mounted as per instructions so that the intake
line is never squeezed or kinked.
