FEKABOX-FEKAFOS are preassembled systems, ready for installation, requiring no adjustment, ideal for collecting and disposing of sewage
and domestic waste water from basement rooms, situated below the level of the sewer network. In compliance with the accident-prevention
regulations in force, the FEKABOX-FEKAFOS cannot be used for conveying inflammable or explosive liquids, such as petrol, diesel fuel,
combustible oils, solvents, etc.

TANK INSTALLATION
The lifting stations of the Fekabox – Fekafos series have various inlet and outlet possibilities for the pipes. Depending on the type of installation
and on the local standards in force it may be necessary to provide a siphon, a non-return valve on the pipe connecting to the public/private
sewer network or to other ducts. Always refer to the local and/or national regulations, laws and standards in force. Anyway it is recommended to
install check valves and interception valves upstream and downstream from the station. An example of installation is shown in chapter 3.
All the ducts must be installed in such a way that they are not stressed. The ducts must not exert stress on the station. Check
that the electropump is securely fixed to the pipes and that all the hydraulic connections are tightened and watertight.
Where necessary provide suitable means for avoiding the transmission of vibrations and for protecting the pipes against the formation of ice.
4.1
Placing the tank inside the building
The tank may be laid on the floor, under the ground or housed in a masonry pit. Fig.2, Fig.3 – pag.150
In any case the surface on which it is laid must be perfectly horizontal and it must be ensured that the whole bottom of the tank is in
contact with the surface.
For Fekabox 200 l, Fekabox 280 and Fekabox 550 Double l the cover of the tank is trafficable (max. weight 100 Kg, see fig. 1 –
pag.150). In indoor installations (garage, basement, technical room), the tank must be fixed to the ground using the slots
provided to prevent rotations, as indicated in figure 4.
FIX THE TANK TO THE GROUND BEFORE USE
Use screws TE M8 with respective fixture, use
specific washers for soft materials ISO 7093
Leave a free space of at least 60 cm around and above the station for installation and maintenance.
4.2
Placing the tank outside the building
If the tank would not buried, to prevent damage to itself and to the seals, you should not expose it to heat sources such as direct sunlight can be
at certain times of the year.
