Mechanical Installation
Installation Site
The installation site should be a weather-
resistant, frost- free and dust-free area that has
good air circulation. Se- lect an easily accessible
installation site. Keep a minimum distance of 8
inches [20 cm] between the motor cover and
surrounding surfaces.
Caution: Damage due to incorrect packaging!
If the pump needs to be transported again at a later
date, it must be securely packaged for transit. Use the
original packaging or equivalent packaging.
Warning: Risk of injury due to high deadweight!
The
pump is heavy and can cause considerable injury if
dropped or if it falls. Only transport the pump using
a suitable hoist. Wear work shoes and a helmet. Never
stand under hanging loads.
Danger: Risk to life due to electric shock!
Before starting work, make sure that the pump is
disconnected from the power supply.
Warning: Danger due to high deadweight!
The pump itself and pump components may have a
very high deadweight. There is a risk of potentially fatal
impact and crushing caused by falling parts. Always use
suitable lifting equipment and secure parts from falling.
Caution: Dirt causes damage!
Dirt can render the pump inoperative. Before installing
the pump, complete all welding and soldering work and
thoroughly clean the pipe system.
Note:
Install an isolation valve (1) on the suction and
discharge sides of the pump so that the pump can be
replaced without having to empty the entire piping
system.

surrounding areas (B). Excessive vibration or other dis-
turbances may cause unsecured pump to rotate about
the pipe connections (C). Base not provided.
