MANAGEMENT

5.1

Storage

All the pumps must be stored indoors, in a dry, vibration-free and dust-free environment, possibly with
constant air humidity. They are supplied in their original packaging and must remain there until the time of
installation. If this is not possible, the intake and discharge ports must be accurately closed.
5.2

Transport

Avoid subjecting the products to needless jolts or collisions.
To lift and transport the unit, use lifting equipment and the pallet supplied standard (if applicable).
5.3

Weights

The adhesive label on the package indicates the total weight of the pump.

WARNINGS

6.1 Skilled technical personnel
It is advisable that installation be carried out by skilled personnel in
possession of the technical qualifications required by the specific
legislation in force.
The term skilled personnel means persons whose training, experience and instruction, as well
as their knowledge of the respective standards and requirements for accident prevention and
working conditions, have been approved by the person in charge of plant safety, authorizing
them to perform all the necessary activities, during which they are able to recognize and avoid
all dangers.
6.2

Safety

Use is allowed only if the electric system is in possession of safety precautions in accordance with the
regulations in force in the country where the product is installed.
6.3

Checking motor shaft rotation

Before installing the pump you must check that the rotating parts turn freely. For this purpose remove the fan
cover from its seat in the motor end cover. Insert a screwdriver in the notch on the motor shaft from the
ventilation side. If there is a blockage, turn the screwdriver, tapping it gently with a hammer. Fig.A
6.4

Responsibility

The Manufacturer does not vouch for correct operation of the pumps if they are
tampered with or modified, run outside the recommended work range or in contrast with
the other instructions given in this manual.
The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for possible errors in this instructions
manual, if due to misprints or errors in copying. The company reserves the right to make
any modifications to products that it may consider necessary or useful, without affecting
the essential characteristics.

INSTALLATION

7.1 The pump must be fitted in a well ventilated place, protected from unfavourable weather
conditions and with an environment temperature not exceeding 104°F. Fig.B
7.2 A firm anchoring of the pump to the bearing surface favours the absorption of any vibrations
caused by pump operation. Fig. C
7.3 Ensure that the metal pipes do not exert undue strain on the apertures, thus preventing
deformations or breakages. Fig. C
7.4 It is always good practice to place the pump as close as possible to the liquid to be pumped.
The pump must be installed only in horizontal position. The internal diameters of the pipes must
never be smaller than that of the mouth of the pump. It is advisable to fit a foot valve on suction.
Fig. D For suction depths of over 13 ft or with long horizontal stretches it is advisable to use an
intake hose with a diameter larger than that of the intake aperture of the pump. To prevent the
formation of air pockets, the intake hose must slope slightly upwards towards the pump. Fig. D
7.5 If the intake pipe is made of rubber or flexible material, always check that it is of the reinforced
type to avoid throttling due to suction.
