with extension tube
When installing the pump, take the maximum and
minimum fluid levels into consideration (Fig.2).
When the pump is switched on the minimum level
of fluid has to be above the bottommost pump
chamber
.
The pump then delivers all the way to the intake in
the chamber or tube
. The maximum permissible
level of fluid amounts to 30mm below the
reservoir’s cover
.
The product should be mounted in a way that
protects it from humidity and vibrations. It should
also be easily accessible so that all other installa-
tion work can be carried out without problems.
Make sure that there is a sufficient amount of
circulating air to prevent the excessive heating of
the product. For information on the maximum
permitted ambient temperature, see the technical
data.
The product must be installed vertically in accor-
dance with the specifications of the customer
documentation.
If no customer documentation is
available, customer documentation can
be requested directly from SKF
Lubrication Systems Germany AG.
