Check all water pipe connections when re-
installing the pump after the winter or extended
storage periods. Open the shut-off valves in the
suction and pressure lines. Close all drain valves
in the system and on the pump. Start the pump in
accordance with the instructions given in the
Installation section of this manual.

5. Installation

This section describes the procedure for the
installation and starting of the pump. It describes
how the work must be carried out and features
requiring special attention.
The installation and starting of the pump may
be carried out only by suitable approved
personnel.

5.1 Installation - General

The pump should preferably be installed on a
concrete surface and screwed into place using
the holes of the base. The pump must be
installed in a dry location. If the pump is installed
in a damp location, adequate ventilation must be
ensured to prevent the formation of condensation.
Adequate ventilation must always be ensured to
allow proper operation of motor.
Sufficient space should be allowed for the
installation and maintenance of the pump. Note
the pump dimensions and allow at least 25cm
free space around the unit.
The pump should be installed as close as
possible to the pool for maximum performance.
Ensure that the
regulations for proper installation.
Short, straight pipes should be used wherever
possible to avoid frictional losses.

5.2 Plumbing Connections

Care must be taken to ensure that no leaks occur
following installation of connections
If the inlet and outlet pipes are connected directly
to the pump, only use Teflon sealing tape to
ensure a good seal.
If screw fittings are used, these must not be
sealed by sealing compounds. Screw fittings seal
with the aid of an O-ring and need only be
tightened hand-tight.
The pump inlet and outlet thread connections are
equipped with a thread stop. The connecting
fitting cannot be forced beyond this point.
Do NOT over-tighten connection points.
Hand-tight plus no more than 2 turns should
be sufficient.
The piping installation should be started at the
pump in order to avoid stresses to the pump
housing – when possible. Air pockets can be
avoided by installing the suction line at a slight
incline toward the pump. A straight pipe of at
least 50cm in length should be installed to the
suction connection.
5.3 Electrical
Connections
This must be done by a certified Electrician. A
separator must be installed in the electrical
system which allows disconnection from the
power supply with a contact opening gap for each
pole of at least 3 mm. The manufacturer accepts
loca l no liability for damage to the motor that can be
prevented by the installation of an external
protection switch. Please use the electrical data
from the motor nameplate for any electrical
system sizing. Otherwise, all guarantee claims
are invalid in the event of damage to the motor
and/or pump.
The product must be grounded.
