The pump can be installed vertically and horizontally. If you wish
to install a pump horizontally, it must be ordered with support
brackets fitted from factory and a foot-mounted motor.

Additional support. As the center of gravity of the pump is
relatively high, we recommend that pumps installed on ships, in
areas with risk of earthquake or in systems which can be moved,
are equipped with an additional support bracket. You can fit the
bracket from the motor stool to the bulkhead of the ship, a rigid
wall in a building or to a rigid part.

To minimize possible noise from the pump, we recommend that
you fit expansion joints on either side of the pump.
Build a foundation and carry out mechanical installation as
described in the section on foundation.
Fit isolating valves on either side of the pump to avoid draining
the system if the pump needs to be removed for cleaning, repair
or replacement.
Always protect the pump against backflow by means of a check
valve.

Fit a vacuum valve close to the pump if the installation has one
of these characteristics:
•
The outlet pipe slopes downwards away from the pump.
•
There is a risk of siphon effect.
•
Protection against backflow of unclean liquids is needed.
