INSTALLATION
1.1.
Operation principle
The Tapflo hose pump is driven by a gear-motor. The rotor is installed directly on the shaft. It
is equipped with shoes or has a special shape itself. The shoes compress the hose creating
vacuum on the suction side of the pump and pressure on the discharge to transfer the liquid.
The rotary movement of the shoes compresses the hose along the casing wall, constantly
sucking/pushing the liquid through the hose. The hose is the only part of the pump that is in
contact with the liquid.
1.2.
Receiving inspection
Although precaution is taken by us when packing and shipping, we urge you to carefully check
the shipment on receipt. Make sure that all parts and accessories listed on the packing list are
accounted for. Immediately report any damage or shortage to the transport company and to
us.
1.3.
Lifting and transportation
Before handling the pump check the weight of the pump (see 5.
Data
). Refer to Your local
standards on how to handle the pump. If the weight is excessive to transport by hand it must
be lifted using slings and a suitable lifting device e.g. a crane or forklift.
The pump is equipped with eye bolts to ease transportation.
