Work steps
1.
Installation of the suspension unit: about 3-6 h
(please see the installation and operating instruc-
tions for the suspension unit).
2.
Preparing the pump for operation on a suspension
unit: about 1-3 h
(please see the operating manual for the suspen-
sion unit).
3.
Installing the pump: about 3-5 h
•
Check that the suspension unit is firmly fixed
and functions properly.
• Secure the lifting equipment to the pump with
the shackle, lift the pump and then lower slow-
ly on to the guide pipes in the collector tank.
• Hold the power supply cables slightly taut
when lowering.
• When the pump is connected to the suspension
unit, make sure that the power supply cables
are secured adequately against falling off and
damage.
• Have the electrical connections made by
a qualified electrician.
•
The pressure connection is sealed by its own
weight.
4. Installing optional accessories, such as dry-run-
ning protection or level controls.
5.
Starting up the pump: about 2-4 h
• As described in the “Commissioning” section
•
For new installation: Flood the collector tank
• Vent the pressure pipe.
5.3.3. Portable wet well installation
In this installation type, the pump has to be
equipped with a pump foot (available as an op
-
tion). This is attached to the suction port and en
-
sures the minimum ground clearance and a secure
footing if placed on a solid bearing surface. In this
version, the pump can be positioned anywhere in
the operating space. If used in an operating space
with a soft bearing surface, a hard base must be
used to prevent sinking. A pressure hose is con
-
nected on the pressure side.
If operated for longer periods of time in this in-
stallation type, the pump must be fastened to the
floor. This prevents vibration and ensures quiet
and low-wearing running.
If the motor emerges during operation, the
following operating parameters must be strictly
observed.
•
The
max. fluid temperature and ambient tem
-
perature
is
40 °C
.
•
Details for "Non-immersed operating mode"
BEWARE of burns!
The housing parts can heat up to well above
40°C. There is a risk of burns! After switch
-
ing it off, let the pump cool down to ambient
temperature.

Work steps
1.
Preparing pumps: about 1 h
• Install the pump foot on the suction connec-
tion.
• Install the pipe elbow on the pressure connec-
tion.
•
Fasten the pressure hose to the pipe elbow
with a hose clip.
Alternatively, a Storz pipe coupling can be
installed on the pipe elbow and a Storz hose
coupling can be installed on the pressure hose.
2.
Installing the pump: about 1-2 h
•
Position pump in installation location. If neces
-
sary, secure lifting equipment to the pump with
a shackle, lift the pump and then lower to the
intended location (sump, pit).
•
Check that the pump is vertical and on a solid
bearing surface. Avoid sinking.
• Route the power supply cable so it cannot be
damaged.
• Have the electrical connections made by
a qualified electrician.
• Route the pressure hose so that it is not dam-
aged and fasten it at certain points (e.g. out
-
flow).
RISK of pressure hose becoming separated!
Uncontrolled separation or movement of the
pressure hose can result in injuries. Secure the
pressure hose appropriately. Prevent buckling
of the pressure hose.
