3.3 Ambient Conditions
Danger of electric shock.
Install in an area which is not exposed to moisture such as rain or steam.
Moisture on electric power connections can cause bodily injury by short
circuit or electric shock.
Danger of explosion and fire.
Install in an area which is not exposed to explosives, flammable gas, or
other related hazards. Otherwise, the pump can cause an explosion or fire.
Operate at an ambient temperature of 5 °C - 40 °C. Operating outside of
this ambient temperature range can cause damage, fire or failure.
