Application
FLOW F series submersible pumps are suitable for pumping clear water (solids passage 1 mm).
The pump may not be used to pump corrosive, flammable, gaseous or potentially explosive fluids, or
sewage containing faecal matter. Fluids containing sand or other substances reduce the service life
of the pump. Not intended for condensation from condensing boilers and brine from water softening
systems.
ATTENTION!
This product is only suitable for removing clear and dirty water up to a water temperature of 40 °C
or up to a maximum of 60 °C during short-term operation. If the system is fed water from machines
such as washing machines, then the maximum water temperature may be exceeded if the device is
not equipped with extraction cooling or if this is not switched on, e.g. in order to save energy. This may
cause damage to the pump or the pumping equipment; we cannot assume any guarantee or honour
the warranty in this case.
If necessary, contact the manufacturer of the device or the devices provided for connection (e.g.
washing machines) to obtain information on how to switch on extraction cooling. Our systems are
checked in accordance with EN 12050 LGA and conform to the current standards.
Also note that the maximum inlet temperature in the public sewer system is 35 °C and that you must
ensure that the water is cooled accordingly.
ATTENTION!
If damage can occur due to a failure of the pumping station, for example due to a power failure or
technical defect, an alternative system must be available as backup e. g. emergency power supply,
double pumping station, network-independent alarm, etc.
ATTENTION!
Leakage of lubricants could result in pollution of the medium being pumped.
