General
The purpose of these instructions is to ensure the correct installation and
best performance of our pumps.
These are single cell centrifugal pumps with built-in filter elements,
especially designed for prefiltering and recirculation of water in swimming
pools.
They are designed to operate with clean water at a maximum temperature
of 35°C. All materials used are of top quality; they are subjected to strict,
controls and verified to extremely demanding standards.
Correct compliance with the installation and operation instructions, and with
the electrical connection diagrams, will prevent motor overloads and the
consequences of all types that could otherwise result, consequences for
which we decline all responsibility.
Installation
The installation of our electric pumps is only permitted in
swimming pools or ponds that meet DIN standards VDE 0100
part 702/11.82. In case of doubt, inquire with an expert.
The pump should be installed as near as possible to water level, in
horizontal position, in order to obtain a minimum suction path and reduce
head losses.
It is not advisable to install the pump at more than 3 m geometrical height
from water level.
Independently of the geometrical height and the power of the model
chosen, self-priming times may be up to 10 min.
The pump must be fixed on a firm base, with screws of 6 or 8 mm diameter,
through the prepared holes in the foot.
The pump should be protected from possible flooding and receive dry
ventilation. The pump is to be installed in a manner consistent with the
National Wiring Rules.
