GENERAL RULES

This manual contains the instructions for installing INTERPUMP pumps and provides the installation
engineer with information on their use and maintenance.
The installation engineer is responsible for passing this information on to the end user to ensure that
the machine on which the pump is to be installed is used properly.
INTERPUMP GROUP declines all liability for any damage caused by negligence or failure to respect
the rules contained in this manual.
SAFETY
Improper use of pumps and high-pressure systems and failure to respect installation and maintenance
regulations may cause serious injury to persons and/or damage to things.
No reasonably applicable safety precaution must be omitted by the Installation engineer or the Ope-
rator.
Any person responsible for assembling or using high-pressure systems must have the competence
required to do so, be familiar with the characteristics of the components he is about to assemble/
use and adopt all necessary precautions required to guarantee maximum safety under all operating
conditions.
- The high-pressure line must always include a suitably calibrated overpressure valve as well as the
pressure-regulating valve.
- The components of the high-pressure system, in particular, for systems operating mainly outdoors,
must be adequately protected against the rain, frost and heat.
- The high-pressure pipes must be correctly sized for the system's maximum working pressure and
used exclusively within the working pressure range indicated by the pipe manufacturer and marked on
the pipe itself.
- The ends of the high-pressure pipes must be sheathed and secured to a solid structure, so as to avoid
the risk of whiplash if the connections burst or break.
- The pump transmission systems (joints, pulleys, belts, rotary shafts), must be suitably covered by a
protective case.
- System maintenance work should be done within the time intervals laid down by the system manufac-
turer, who is responsible for the entire assembly in accordance with the law.
- All maintenance work must be done by authorized, specialized staff.
- The pump and its components are to be assembled and disassembled exclusively by authorized staff,
using equipment suited to the purpose so as to avoid damaging components that could put their safety
at risk.
- To guarantee absolute reliability and safety, use should be made exclusively of original spare parts.

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The STANDARD pumps are suitable for working with clean, soft water, at a maximum temperature of
40°C, and only for short periods at up to 60°C. In the latter case, call the Technical Department of the
Customer Care Department to establish the necessary specifi cations according to the type of plant
installed.
The HT series pumps are specially designed to work with clean, soft water at a temperature of up to
85°C.
The SS series pumps are specially designed to work with salty water, demineralised water and other
aggressive solutions; in the latter case, call the Technical Department or the Customer Engineering
Service to assess compatibility and the necessary specifi cations according to the type of application.
The performance indicated in the catalogue refers to the maximum performance provided by the pump.
Irrespective of the power used, the pressure and maximum number of revolutions indicated in the
catalogue cannot be exceeded unless expressly authorized by the Technical Department or Customer
Engineering Service.
