Piping Connections: Before making any Piping Connection, refer to the visual
indications i.e. arrow on the Pump head, to identify Suction and Delivery. The Pump
must never be Operated before the Delivery and Suction-lines have been connected.
Note: A Wrong Connection can cause Serious Pump Damage.
Preliminary Inspection:
• Before connection, make sure that the Piping and the Suction Tank are free of Dirt and any Solid Residue
that could Damage the Pump and/or its Accessories.
• Before connecting the Delivery Pipe, partially fill the Pump Body from the delivery side, with the liquid that
needs to be pumped in order to facilitate priming.
• Do not use Conical Threaded Fittings, as it could Damage the Threaded Inlet or Outlet Openings of the
Pump if excessively tightened.
Note: If not already fitted, fit a Suction Filter
Initial Start-Up: Check that the quantity of fluid in the Suction Tank is greater than the amount you wish to
transfer.
• Make sure that the Residual Capacity of the Delivery Tank is greater than the quantity you wish to transfer.
• Make sure that the Piping and Line Accessories are in good condition.
Warning: Toxic Fluid or Fumes Hazard
• Never Start or Stop the Pump by Connecting or Cutting-Out the Power Supply.
• Prolonged contact with some Fluids can damage the skin. The use of Safety Goggles, Mask and Gloves is
strongly recommended.
Note: Do not run the Pump dry for more than 20 minutes. This can cause serious damage to its components.
Fluid leaks can damage objects and injure persons.
Note: Extreme operating conditions with duty cycles longer than 30 minutes can cause the motor temperature
to rise thus damaging the motor. For each duty cycle of 30 minutes, allow for a rest phase of 30 minutes with
motor switched off.
During the priming phase, the Pump must discharge all the Air that is initially present from the delivery line.
Therefore, it is necessary to keep the Outlet open to permit the Evacuation of the Air.
Note: If an Automatic-type Dispensing Nozzle is installed on the end of the Delivery Line, the Evacuation of the
Air will be difficult because of the Automatic Stopping Device that keeps the Valve closed. It is recommended
that the Automatic Nozzle be temporarily removed during initial Start-up.
If the Pump Does Not Prime: Depending on the system characteristics, the Priming phase can last from
several seconds to a few minutes. If this phase is prolonged, stop the Pump and verify that:
• The Pump is not running completely Dry (fill with Fluid from the Delivery line)
• The Suction Pipe guarantees against Air Infiltration
• The Suction Filter is not Clogged
• The Suction height is not higher than 10 ft. (3m)
• All Air has been released from the Delivery Pipe
At the End of the Initial Start-Up
When Priming has occurred, verify that the Pump is operating within the anticipated range, in particular that:
• Under conditions of Maximum Back Pressure, the Power Absorption of the motor stays within the values
shown on the identification label
• The Suction Pressure is not greater than 7 PSI (0.5 bar)
• The Delivery Back Pressure does not exceed the Maximum Back Pressure for the Pump.
