3 Transport and interim storage

Immediately after receiving the product:

• Check the product for damage in transit.
• If damage is found, the necessary procedures 

involving the forwarding agent must be taken 
within the specified period. 

CAUTION! Danger of material damage!
The product may be damaged if it is not trans-
ported and stored correctly.

• For transport, the pump may only be lifted or 

carried using the brackets intended for that pur-
pose. The cable should never be used for lifting!

• The pump must be protected from moisture, 

frost, heat, direct sunlight and mechanical dam-
age during transport and interim storage.

• Firmly seal the pump pressure port to avoid con-

tamination.

• During transport and interim storage observe 

that the freezing point of the motor fluid 
is -8 °C.

• Protect all electricity supply cables from kink-

ing, damage and the penetration of moisture.

• Store the pump horizontally on a solid, level sur-

face.

4 Intended  use

Wilo-Sub TWI submersible pumps are suitable for 
pumping clean or slightly muddy water not con-
taining long fibrous and abrasive components.
They are used for the following applications:

• for boreholes and cisterns,
• for pumping and distributing secondary hot water 

for:
• domestic use (potable water supply)
• agriculture (irrigation, sprinkling)
• industry (pressure boosting etc.)
NOTE: Follow the locally applicable regulations for 
the intended application.
The pumps are only installed flooded (immersed) 
and can be installed horizontally and vertically 
with cooling jacket pipe.

CAUTION! Danger of material damage! Pumping 
materials which are not approved can lead to 
damage to the product. 
The pumps are not suitable for water containing 
coarse contaminants such as fibres or flammable 
liquids or for use in potentially explosive areas.

Correct use of the pump/installation also includes 
following these instructions.
Any use over and beyond these is considered to be 
incorrect use.
