2.2 Pressure pipe
If dirt gets into the pressure pipe during the installation, the pipe has to
be flushed before connection to the unit.
Ensure that the pressure pipe
from the pump to the control unit is as straight as possible. This will make
sure that there is no loss of pressure.
Note!
We recommend connecting the pressure pipe via braided hoses and a shut off valve.
This will:
- eliminate vibration and sound transmissions
- eliminate installation inaccuracies
- enable shutting off the pressure pipe at any time
- help to eliminate malfunctions with only a small effort.
• Use a 1" pressure pipes (minimum inside diameter 25mm).
• The pressure pipe should be installed as direct as possible.
• Connect the pressure pipe leak-tight and tightly with the outlet of the submersible
pump in the storage tank.
• Connect the pressure pipe leak-tight and
tightly with the pressure inlet of the unit,
see fig 4.
• Connect the pressure outlet of the unit
with the existing pressure pipe in the
building.
• The first pipe clip has to be installed with
a maximum distance of 10-15 cm from
the unit
- This avoids transmission of vibrations into
the pressure pipe.
• Lay the electrical cable of the supply pump up to the connection area in house.
- The electrical cable or the pressure pipe may not be broken or laid over sharp edges.
• In order to avoid a damage of the main, this is to be fastened with the cable straps in
regular intervals to the pressure pipe, see fig. 3.
Do not bury the electrical cable without any protection.
Recommendation:
Use a 110 mm duct to connect the storage tank and the building for electrical cable and the
pressure pipe. The duct has to be sufficiently sealed to prevent water entering the
house.
