Installation and electrical con-
nection
6.1
Personnel qualifications
ƒ
Electrical work: A qualified electrician must carry out the electrical work.
6.2
Operator responsibilities
ƒ
Observe locally applicable accident prevention and safety regulations of professional
and trade associations.
ƒ
Observe all regulations for working with heavy loads and under suspended loads.
ƒ
Provide protective equipment and ensure that the protective equipment is worn by
personnel.
ƒ
Avoid pressure surges!
Pressure surges can occur in long pressure pipes. These pressure surges can lead to
the destruction of the pump!
ƒ
Structural components and foundations must be of sufficient stability in order to al-
low the device to be fixed in a secure and functional manner. The operator is re-
sponsible for the provision and suitability of the building/foundation!
ƒ
Check that the available consulting documents (installation plans, design of the op-
erating space, inflow conditions) are complete and correct.
6.3
Preparing the installation
WARNING
Risk of personal injury and property damage due to improper handling!
• Never set up the pump unit on unfortified surfaces or surfaces that cannot bear
loads.
• The pump should only be installed after completion of all welding and soldering
work.
• Flush the pipe system if required. Dirt can cause the pump to fail.
ƒ
The pumps (in the standard version) must be protected from the weather and in-
stalled in a frost/dust-free, well-ventilated environment that is not potentially ex-
plosive.
ƒ
Mount the pump in a readily accessible place. This makes it easier to complete in-
spections, maintenance (e.g. mechanical seal change) or replacement in the future.
ƒ
A travelling crane or a device for attaching hoisting gear should be installed above
the set-up site of large pumps.
6.4
Setting up the pump by itself
(variant B, Wilo variant key)
When installing a pump by itself, the required coupling guard and base frame of the
pump manufacturer should be used. In any case, all components must meet the CE reg-
ulations. The coupling guard must be compatible with EN 953.
