Before Getting Started
Thank you for your purchase and use of our products. In order to avoid accidents or injury,
please read this manual
carefully
before using the machine. After reading, preserve it
for further reference. Our company will not be responsible for any personal injury or
mechanical failure caused by improper operation of the water pump. This manual describes
the basic operation and maintenance instructions of new water pump. The data given in
this manual is subject to change without prior notice.
Operating Conditions
These pumps have been designed to pump neutral clean liquids in which no abrasive solids
are suspended at temperatures of no more than 80
o
C (60
o
C for electric pumps with plastic
impellers or diffusers).
Installation
1.
The pumps must be installed in a dry well-ventilated
place with an ambient temperature of not more than
40
o
C (Fig A).
2.
Fix the pump in place on a solid flat surface using
bolts to avoid vibration.
3.
The pump must be installed in a horizontal position
to make sure that the bearings operate correctly.
4.
The diameter of the intake pipe must not be smaller than that of the intake mouth.
If the intake height exceeds 4 meters, use a pipe with a larger diameter.
5.
The diameter of the delivery pipe must be chosen to suit the flow rate and
pressure required at the take-off points.
6.
The intake must be slightly angled up towards the
intake mouth to avoid the formation of air locks
(Fig B).
7.
Make sure that the intake pipe is completely airtight
and immersed in the water by at least half a meter to
avoid the formation of vortexes.
8.
Always fit a foot valve at the end of the intake pipe. It
is advisable to fit a non-return valve between the
delivery mouth and flow rate adjustment gate valve to
avoid dangerous water hammering in the event of the
pump suddenly stopping. This measure is compulsory
if the delivery water column is over 20 meters.
