Installing and Connecting
3.3.1
Check before you start
installing
•
Have the machine, the system and the
container nozzles been properly prepa-
red in accordance with the figures on
the dimensions sheet or installation
plan?
•
Has the concrete base got adequate
strength (minimum of B 15) in accor-
dance with DIN 1045?
•
Is the concrete base hydrated?
•
Is the surface level and even?
3.3.2
Installing the unit
These centrifugal pumps must only be
installed in a vertical position.
Except for special models, the pumps are
always placed on the cover plate (base
plate) and fastened down by screws.
When installed on a foundation the
centrifugal pump must be set up with the
aid of a spirit level.
3.3.3
Connecting the Pipework
In the case of pipework the nominal bore
should be at least the same as the pump
connections.
Connection pieces to larger nominal bores
should be carried out with approx. 8°
expansion angle to avoid significant loss of
pressure.
The suction pipe to the pump must be
installed to rise continuously, on the
pressure side it must fall continuously.
Safety Instructions /
Explosion proof
Pay particular attention to the
Supplementary operator's
manual "explosion protection"
Warning!
Stability, Danger of injury!
Pumps with a motor at the top
are very top heavy. These
pumps must be safeguarded
against tipping up during
installation or removal e.g. with
the help of ropes.
Caution!
Never install the pump with the
„motor below“.
Warning!
Under no circumstances must
the pump be used as anchor
point for the pipework. No
forces or moments (e.g. due to
twisting or heat expansion)
from the pipework must act on
the pump. The pipes must be
supported as close as possible
to the centrifugal pump and
connected to it free of all
tension.
