5 Set-up and putting into operation
5.1 General points
To avoid damage to the lifting station during set-up and in operation, the following points must be taken into account:
• Set-up work must be carried out by qualified members of staff and taking the safety regulations into account.
• The lifting station must be examined for any damage before it is set-up.
• Protect the pump from frost.
• The pump‘s electric cables must be routed in such a way that hazardous operation and simple assembly/
removal is possible.
• Dry running must be avoided at all costs.
5.2 Installation
Subsequent damage e.g. caused by rooms flooding if there are problems with the pump have to be excluded by the
operator taking precautionary measures (e.g. installation of alarm system, reserve pump etc.).
The lifting station must be installed in such a way that the cover can be opened. Make sure there is enough space
between the vertical/horizontal inlets and any existing walls.
According to DIN EN 12050-2 (5.2 Pipe connections), draining equipment where the lowest odour trap point is more
than 180 mm lower than the bottom edge of the lifting station must be connected to the system by a suitable pipe
loop of at least 180 mm.
All excavation, concrete and masonry work as well as the connections must be carried out by a specialist
appropriately qualified for the specific job.
• The system must be installed in such a way that the operating elements and elements which require maintenance
are easily accessible. Make sure there is enough space (approx. 60 cm) between the side inlet and any existing
walls.
• Fit a shut-off valve into the inlet and discharge pipe to make maintenance or any dismantling of the system
easier.
• In order to avoid deposits in the horizontal discharge pipe, the pipe and system must be designed for a minimum
flow speed of 0.7 m/s, in the case of vertical pipes the minimum flow speed is 1.0 m/s.
• The inlet is connected to the horizontal muff DN150 at an inlet height of 700 mm or 1000 mm. The respective
opening must be cut off the respective tank inlet muff for the required connection. The inner diameter of the inlet
pipe and the inlet muff must match.
