velda Eco-Stream Stand 6000, User Instructions

Page: 15 / 24

This means that transport of any different liquids is explicitly excluded.
!
The use of these pumps in swimming pools is not allowed.
!
The Eco-Stream Stand Pumps can be used in a dry installation, next to the pond
or the filter, provided that they are installed below water level.
!
The pump should always be placed as level as possible and not in the bottom
sludge. In the pond, you should use a prefilter and/or an elevation, made from
a number of stones.
!
The temperature of the water to be displaced may be maximum 35 °C.
!
When the pump and its connections have been completely installed, taking care
that there are no air bubbles in the ducts, the pump can be connected to the supply.

All pumps are equipped with a Super Vortex impeller. This special impeller com-
bines a large water capacity with the possibility to move dirt particles up to 6 mm.
The pumps have been put in a stable vibration-free stand.
USE OUTSIDE THE POND
Eco-Stream Stand pumps are ideal for dry installation. They can be put outside a pond,
in combination with all kinds of filter systems. If necessary, the pump stand can be
fastened with screws in a place suitable for the purpose. The pumps should be installed
below water level. Take care that the pump is always supplied with a sufficient quantity
of water. The filtered water can be returned directly to the pond, however, this can also
be done through a waterfall or a flow of water. Two hose sockets with quick release
couplings and a swivel head are supplied along. Mount the discharge hose socket with
or without swivel head (including sealing ring) on top of the connection of the pump.
Mount the infeed hose socket (including sealing ring) to the infeed side of the pump.
Connect the infeed and return hoses to the hose sockets. Use the largest possible hose
diameter in order to exploit the water capacity completely. Saw off the unused diameter
of the hose socket. Take care of proper sealing and use Teflon tape and/or hose clips.
Also glued PVC connections can be used. Inspect all connections for watertightness
immediately after putting the pump into use. Attention: to avoid overload of the motor,
the infeed diameter may never exceed the output diameter. The supply hose should be
as short as possible.
USE IN A POND
Mount the discharge hose socket with or without swivel head (including sealing ring)
on top of the connection of the pump. Connect the return hose on the hose socket.
Mount the infeed hose socket (including sealing ring) to the infeed side of the pump.
Apply the infeed hose to the pre filter. Certainly in polluted ponds you are well-advised
to rinse and clean the prefilter regularly. Inspect the impeller for pollution regularly.
