Intended use
The device is only suited for draining, conveying and pumping
over the following media:
•
clear water and waste water
•
non-corrosive suds (e.g. leaking washing machine)
•
slightly chlorinated water
When doing so, the water must not contain any suspended
matter exceeding a maximum particle size of 25 mm.
The device is fully submersible (watertight encapsulation) and
can be immersed up to 7 m into the pumping medium.
