cooling fan must have a minimum clearance of 150mm).
Installation
1. The pump suction line should not be smaller than the unions supplied with the pump
2. The suction line is to have as few bends or elbows as possible. There must not be an air trap on the suction line
3. Use only the pump barrel unions supplied with the pump
4 Bolt the pump to the required position to prevent movement
5. The pump electrical cable must be wired for the proper voltage and rotation in accordance with the wiring instructions
6. All wiring (electrical) work must be carried out by a licensed electrician and must be installed in accordance to the local codes
7. The motor must be grounded
8. The weight of the plumbing and fittings is to be independently supported and not carried by the pump

Important Electrical Notice
The electrical installation is to be done by a licensed electrician.
Each pump requires a circuit breaker to separate the pump from the electrical supply. (The contact separation has to provide full
disconnection in all poles under overvoltage category Ill conditions.)
If the pump is to be installed on a swimming pool or pond situation it is
MANDATORY
that an earth leakage circuit breaker with a
rated tripping current not exceeding
30mA
be installed.
Check the pumps name plate for the following: voltage, amp draw and cycle.
The power cord, including the ground wire shall have a quality of
245 lEC66 (HO7RN-F)
for models
greater
than
1Kw
power input.
For models less than
1Kw
input the quality shall be of
245 IEC57 (HO5RN-F)
. All installations must comply with local codes,
based on
IEC 364-7-702
requirements.
