3.1 Applications
Grundfos SP submersible pumps are designed for a wide range
of water supply and liquid transfer applications, such as the
supply of fresh water to private homes or waterworks, water
supply to nursery gardens or farms, drawdown of groundwater
and pressure boosting, and various industrial jobs.
The pump must be installed so that the suction interconnector is
completely submerged in the liquid. The pump can be installed
either horizontally or vertically, see also section 4.2 Positional
requirements.
