4. Installing the product

4.1 Mechanical installation

DANGER
Electric shock
Death or serious personal injury
- Before starting any work on the product, switch off
the power supply and make sure that it cannot be
accidentally switched on.
DANGER
Crushing hazard
Death or serious personal injury
- During installation, always support the pump by
means of lifting chains or place it in horizontal
position to secure stability.
Fit the extra nameplate supplied with the pump at the installation
site.
Observe all safety regulations at the installation site, for instance
the use of blowers for fresh-air supply to the pit.
CAUTION
Crushing of hands
Minor or moderate personal injury
- Do not put your hands or any tool into the pump
inlet or outlet port after the pump has been
connected to the power supply, unless the main
switch has been locked in the 0-position.
- Make sure that the power supply cannot be
accidentally switched on.
The free end of the cable must not be submerged as
water may penetrate through the cable into the
motor.
Make sure that the pipes are installed without the use
of undue force. No loads from the weight of the pipes
must be carried by the pump. We recommend that
you use loose flanges to ease the installation and to
avoid pipe tension at the flanges.
