1. Applications
The Grundfos pumps, type MTH, are multistage
centrifugal pumps designed for pumping liquids for
machine tools, condensate transfer, liquid transfer
in industrial washing machines and similar applica-
tions.
The pumps are designed for pumping liquids with
a density and viscosity corresponding to those of
water. The pumped liquid must not contain abrasive
particles or fibres.
When pumping liquids with a density or viscosity
higher than that of water, the motor size should be
taken into consideration.
2. Type designation
The standard range of pumps encompasses com-
plete impeller in chamber combinations. On request,
other lengths, against duty combinations, can be
supplied by fitting empty intermediate chambers
instead of standard chambers with impellers.
The pump key on the pump nameplate indicates the
number of chambers and impellers fitted to the
pump.

4. Installation
The pump is designed for tank mounting in vertical
position. The pump is positioned in a hole cut into
the cover of the tank (upper side) and is secured to
the tank by four hexagon head screws through the
holes in the mounting flange. It is recommended to fit
a sealing gasket between the pump flange and tank.
Note:
MTH 2 and 4 can only be mounted vertically.

Prior to installation, read these installation
and operating instructions. Installation and
operation must comply with local regula-
tions and accepted codes of good prac-
tice.
The pump must not be used for the trans-
fer of inflammable liquids such as diesel
oil, petrol or similar liquids.
