Applications and Use
The centrifugal multistage horizontal pumps of series TM are used in irrigation systems, systems of high pressure
lifting, refrigeration, heating, snowing, cleaning, in boiler systems, in condensed extraction and in fire-fighting systems.
Do not use the pumps for uses other than those specified. Any other use is to be considered improper and,
for this reason, potentially dangerous for the operator's health as well as voiding the warranty.
Never use the electric pump in explosive atmospheres or to pump inflammable or dangerous liquids.
Check the norms locally in force concerning the indicated materials for particular uses (use with drinking
water or foodstuffs, fire protections, etc...).
In order to avoid seriously damaging the components, observe the following recommendations:
– never use the pump in absence of liquid;
– never use the pump with null delivery (closed delivery);
– always use the pump with a delivery indicated in the working diagram.
