INSTALLATION
CHAPTER 3
•
All SWIMMEY pumps are self-priming
•
If the pump is used to suck water, it
is advisable to install it as close as
possible to the source
•
All pumps should be installed in a
ventilated area to ensure sufficient air
for cooling purposes
• Suction pipes should be air-sealed and
show no signs of bends and/or counter
slopes to avoid the formation of air
locks that could impair the regular
operation of the pump
•
MAX. TEMPERATURE OF PUMPED
LIQUID: 40 °C
•
MAXIMUM/MINIMUM AMBIENT

LIMITATIONS
CHAPTER 2
•
Pumps installed below the water level
should be insulated from the system
• It is advisable to fit an on-off valve both
on the delivery and suction side
•
Pipes should be fitted in a position that
protects the pump from vibrations,
stresses and loads
• Therefore, pipe routes should be as
short and direct as possible and avoid
an excessive number of bends to limit
load losses
•
The delivery and suction pipes of
Swimmey 33 should have a minimum
diameter of 3"
•
It is also necessary to make sure that
there is sufficient space around the
pump for maintenance purposes
SWIMMEY series pumps are suitable to pump chlorinated water from swimming pools. All the components in contact with the water
come in man-made polymer, which offers a double electric insulation and full anti-oxidising properties.
