Installation
Line connection
• The suction and pressure lines should be installed in such a way that they do not exert any mechanical force or stress on
the pump or the automatic control.
• Both lines must be perfectly sealed. Leaks cause air to accumulate in the piping and prevent or reduce water output.
Avoid bends and slopes as much as possible to prevent the formation of air bubbles that can affect the efficiency of the
pressurizer. All connections should be sealed with hemp and thick paste (for metal threads) or Teflon sealing tape (for
synthetic threads).
• All line components should be installed by a professional.
Suction line connection (inlet)
• If the liquid is contaminated, a suction strainer (A)
should be used to protect the pump from sand and dirt.
• It is recommended to use a check valve (B) so that the
suction line is not emptied when the pump is switched off.
• The line pipe should have an internal diameter of at least
1". It should be bend resistant and suitable for vacuum
use.
• The line should be as short as possible, as the pumping
capacity decreases with increasing line length.
• The line should rise regularly towards the pump. To
prevent air pockets.
• It should be ensured that there is sufficient water and the
end of the line should always be in the water.
Automatic control height
• The height of the line between the automatic control and
the pump (D) must be matched to the height of the
pressure line outlets.
• If the water column between the pump and the highest
tap exceeds 49 ft, the automatic control cannot be
installed directly above the pump, but must be raised until
the water column between the automatic control and the
highest tap does not exceed 49 ft, i.e. if the water column
is 65 ft from the pump, the automatic control must be
placed at a distance of 16 ft above the pump.
Start up
Draining the pump
WARNING • The pump must be filled with clean
water before start-up and during operation, otherwise it
will suffer irreparable damage not covered by the warranty.
• After a new connection and before each start-up check
for water leakage or air ingress in both the pump and
suction line, making sure that the pump is primed.
• To obtain better suction, the use of a suction filter is
recommended.
Pressure line connection (outlet)
• It is recommended to use a gate or globe valve (C) to
facilitate maintenance operations of the automatic control.
• The piping of the line should be fixed so that when there
are vibrations, stress and weight do not affect the
pressurizer.
