3. Connections
Suction side:
The suction side may be connected with flexible hose, using the hose fitting (8)
included. As another option, the glue connection fitting (10) can be connected to a standard PVC
fitting and pipe (DN 32).
Pressure side:
The pressure side can be connected with a flexible hose with 32 mm inner
diameter, using the hose fitting (8/9) included. This hose fitting must also to be fitted if the pump
is used as a pure current pump.
If the pump is used as return pump, it can be directly connected to a PVC pipe (DN 32), using the
glue connection fitting (10).
If a hard pipe is used for connecting the pumps, we recommend to use a short section of flexible
hose to avoid vibration.

5. Set-Up
The pump may be installed submerged or out of the water. However, it is not self-priming and, if
set up out of the water, has to be installed below the water surface level. If used submerged, we
recommend to remove the hose connection (9, 10) on the suction side and to fit the filter basket
(5) in front of the pump. However, it must be prevented that the pump runs dry since this would
destroy the bearings after a short period.
The pump head (4) can be fitted to the pump on four sides so the outlet positioned can be
adjusted. After setting up the pump ensure you can always reach the power plug easily.
Maximum depth must not exceed 1 m.
