Installation instructions
▪
For horizontal installation, a device guiding the flow along the motor (cooling
shroud, hood etc.) is required.
▪
For horizontal installation, install the pump set with the venting pointing
upwards at an angle.
▪
Lay the pipe in such a way that no piping forces (weights, torsional forces,
vibrations, etc.) can act on the pump set. To compensate such forces, we
recommend fitting a tailored expansion joint between the pump set and the
pipe.
