INSTALLATION / FITTING
4 .1 Installing the pumping station
• The characteristics shown on the rating plate have been compared with
those on the order and installation (supply voltage, frequency).
• The installation room must be protected against frost.
• The installation room is adequately lit.
• The work has been prepared in accordance with the dimensions shown in
the example installation and standard EN 12056-4.
• The plant room where the SANICUBIC® will be installed must be large
enough to allow a 600 mm clearance around and above the device to faci-
litate maintenance.
• The alarm signal is always visible to the user (if necessary, use an external
alarm contact switch).
• Stop valves (not provided) must be fitted on the effluent inlet as well as on
the discharge line, as close as possible to the pumping station.
• The discharge line must be designed to prevent any back-flow of sewage.
By fitting a non-return loop, located above the back-flow level, back-flow is
avoided.
Comment: In the absence of local information to the contrary, the maximum
back flow level corresponds to street level - roadway, pavements etc. Extend
this line after the non-return loop through a larger diameter pipe.
• Provide a sump to drain the room.
• The installation of an auxiliary pump for possible drainage of the plant room
(for floods) is recommended.
• The pumping station must be ventilated above the roof.
• The pumped fluid is appropriate and authorised by this documentation.
(section 3.9, page 23)
• In case of discharge of greasy effluents, the use of a degreasing tank is es-
sential.
Wastewater other than those mentioned above, for example, of artisanal or
industrial origin, must not be discharged into the pipes without prior treat-
ment.
4 .2 Electrical connection
Electrical connection work performed by an unqualified indivi-
dual. Risk of death by electric shock!
w The electrical connection must be performed by a qualified
and licensed electrician.
w The electrical installation must meet the current standards in
the country
Wrong supply voltage. Damage to the pumping station!
w The supply voltage must not differ by more than 6% of the
rated voltage specified on the rating plate.
The power supply must be class 1. The device must be connected to an ear-
thed junction box. The electrical power supply must be protected with a high
sensitivity circuit breaker set to 10 Mini Amps for SANICUBIC 1/ SANICUBIC 1
WP and 20 Mini Amps for SANICUBIC 2 Classic/SANICUBIC 2 Pro/SANICUBIC
2XL single-phase and 25 Amps for SANICUBIC 2XL three-phase. This connec-
tion must be used exclusively for the SANICUBIC® power supply. If the cord of
this device is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its after-
sales service in order to avoid any danger to users.
4 .3 Fitting the pumping station
Fit the pumping station on the bare ground and level it with a bubble level.
To avoid any risk of the pumping station floating, attach it to the ground
using the mounting kit provided.
NOTE
Pumping stations should not be installed near bedrooms and
living rooms (noise from the pumping station). (c section 3.10,
page 23)
Fitting the pumping station on anti-vibration mounts ensures
sufficient insulation against structure-borne sound with respect
to the pumping station.
Do not fit the pumping station in direct contact with the walls
to avoid transmission of the pumping station's vibrations.
4 .4 Pipe connections
4 .4 .1 Inlet pipes
wThe pumping station must not be used as a control point
for piping.
w Prop up the pipes upstream from the pumping station. Make
connections without constraints.
w Use suitable means to compensate for thermal expansion of
the piping.
NOTE
It is recommended that you mount check valves and stop valves
on the inlet pipes. These must be mounted so that they do not
hinder disassembly of the pumping station.
✓ The piping is supported.
1. Choose the connection openings to use.
2. Cut the tip of the corresponding boss with a saw
NOTE
All piping connections must prevent the propagation of noise
and be flexible.
4 .4 .2 Discharge piping
Improper fitting of the discharge pipe. Leaks and flooding of
the installation room!
w Run the discharge line above the back-flow level before
connecting to the sewer.
w The pumping station must not be used as a control point for
piping.
wDo not connect other drain pipes to the discharge pipe.
wFit isolation valves to inlets and discharge pipework.
NOTE
To prevent the risk of back-flow of water from the sewer,
install the discharge pipe in a «loop» so that its base, at the
highest point, is located above the back-flow level .
Fit a shutoff valve behind the check valve .
The check valves are equipped with a lever for emptying
the discharge pipe into the tank .
4 .4 .3 Ventilation pipe
Insufficient ventilation . Risk that the pumping station will
not work!
w Ventilation must remain free
w Do not block the vent outlet
w Do not install an air intake valve (diaphragm valve) .
According to the recommendations of EN 12050-1, it must be equipped
with a vent above the roof. The pumping station must always be ventilated
so that the tank is always at atmospheric pressure. The ventilation must be
completely free and air must flow in both directions (no diaphragm valve
fitted).
The vent pipe must not be connected to the vent pipe on the inlet side of a
grease trap.
Connect the ND 50 or ND 70 vent pipe (depending on the model) vertically
to the vent opening with the flexible couplings. The connection must be
smell-proof.
