INSTALLING PIPES (RECOMMENDATIONS)
When installing the pipes, ensure that the pump body is not under pressure from the pipes.
The suction and discharge pipes should be of the correct size, taking into account the inlet pressure of the pump.
Install the pipes so that air pockets are avoided, especially on the suction end of the pump.
FIG. 7: Pipes
Assemble the shut-off valves on both sides of the pump to prevent the system from emptying if we have to clean or repair
the pump.
Check that the pipes are held in place as close as possible to the pump, both on the suction and the discharge sides. The
counter flanges should be aligned with respect to the pump flanges, without stresses that could cause damage to it.
The pump cannot operate when a valve is closed, as this will cause an increase in the temperature/formation of steam in
the pump, which may cause it damage.
