Installation
1. Installation location
• The pump should be installed on a flat foundation where is free from vibration or torsional force.
• Spacing for the motor removal (for back pull out) and maintenance (assembly and dismantlement) are
needed.
• Installation surface should be larger than the pump base.
2. Positioning
• Install the pump as close to the suction tank in flooded suction system.
• If the flooded suction system can not be realized, install the auxiliary piping for priming and a foot valve at
the suction pipe end.
3. Pump mounting
• See the diagram below for mounting the pump in the foundation.
• For the pump without the base plate, note that the pump can not be dismantled with the foot supports of
the cover and bracket fixed in the foundation.
