3.4 Setting up the Pump
The SC 5 D and SC 15 D are equipped with a carrying handle for transport-
ing. The SC 30 D and SC 60 D are provided with a crane eyelet for trans-
porting and placement.
Use lifting devices with sufficient carrying capacity. Never stand beneath
the suspended pump while it is being moved.
The place where the pump is installed should be free of dust or steel, stone
and wood dust. Moreover, the location should be free of corrosive gases.
Install the pump on a stable horizontal floor surface (sloping by no more than
5 °, see Fig. 3.3). Installing the pump on a sloping surface can cause the
pump to fail.
If the floor is unstable, secure the pump by using
■
4 x dia. 7 mm holes in the pump base (SC 5 D) or
■
4 x dia. 11 mm holes in the pump base (SC 15 D) or
■
4 x holes in the pump base for M10 screws and (SC 30 D)
■
4 x holes in the pump base for M10 screws and (SC 60 D).
When not observing these installation conditions, damage may occur, or
performance or service life may be impaired.
