2. GENERAL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
WARNING
– This product should be installed and serviced only by a qualified professional.
PUMP LOCATION
Locate pump as close to pool as practical and run suction lines as direct as possible to reduce friction loss.
Suction lines should have continuous slope upward from lowest point in line. Joints must be tight (but not
over-tightened). Suction line diameter must equal or be larger than the discharge line diameter.
Though the pump is designed for outdoor use, it is strongly advised to protect the electrical components from
the weather. Select a well-drained area, one that will not flood when it rains. Do NOT install pump in a damp or
non-ventilated location. Keep motor clean.
THE PUMP MUST BE INSTALLED
1) Before the filter, heating system and/or water treatment unit.
• At a distance of 2 meters from the edge of the pool, to prevent water from splashing the unit. Some stand-
ards allow other distances. Consult the standards in force in the country of installation.
2) Install the pump as close to the pool as possible, to reduce friction loss and improve efficiency, use short,
direct suction and return piping.
3) To avoid direct sunshine, heat or rain, it is recommended to place the pump indoors or in the shade.
4) Install the pump in a ventilated location. Keep pump and motor at least 100mm away from obstacles, pump
motors require free circulation of air for cooling.
5) The pump should be installed horizontally and fixed in the hole on the support with screws to prevent unnec-
essary noise and vibration.
THE PUMP MUST NOT BE INSTALLED
• In an area susceptible to rainfall and splashing.
• Near a heat source or source of inflammable gas.
• In an area that cannot be cleaned or kept free of leaves, dry vegetation and other inflammable items.
• In Zone 0 (Z0) and Zone 1 (Z1).
