15. TYPES OF INSTALLATION
15.1. SUBMERSED INSTALLATION WITH AUTOMATIC CONNECTION
ASSEMBLY
Fix the anchoring bracket in an easily accessible position, firmly secured to the upper part
of the tank wall, or to the edge of the trap opening.
If the riser pipes in series KT alone are not longer than 1.5 m, they can be mounted projecting
over the base without the upper fixing bracket.
Place the base for automatic coupling on the bearing surface so that the housings of the
two guiding pipes in the upper part of the base itself, are perfectly "plumb" in relation to the
fixing bracket projections. (See size and measurements in the "OVERALL DIMENSIONS
AND WEIGHTS" paragraph of this manual).
Mark the position of the four slots at the feet of the base and cut the guide pipes to measure.
Securely fix the base to the bearing surface using 12÷20 mm diameter steel fixing shanks
at least 120÷200 mm in length or equally efficient expansion plugs.
Secure the input pipe to the basement inlet.
Disassemble the anchoring bracket.
Engage, or screw-in for the KT series, in the suitable basement housing, the two guide
tubes and lock them to the top end, reassembling the anchoring bracket [Fig.1 and 2].
Hook the chain onto the trigger on the top of the motor (opposite hole from the pressing
inlet); lift the electric pump, move it under the manhole and lower it slowly, sliding the
bracket between the two sliding rails.
For the automatic hooking KT series not immersed in the fluid, screw the base for
automatic hooking onto to the inlet pipe located in the tank. Support the base with a
beam secured to the feet of the base or using sliding rails anchored to a support bracket.
Assemble the hooked elbow, the input pipe and the flanged elbow to the electric pump.
Attach the steel rope and the chain onto the hooked elbow by placing it in the loop so
that, when the assembly is lifted, it tilts by at least 4 or 5°.
Lower and slowly place in the tank by connecting the assembly to the base for automatic
connection [Fig.3].
CORRECT SETUP
To ensure the pump can easily slide along the guide pipes and that it correctly connects/
releases from the base during automatic coupling, the chain hook should always be kept in
area "A" during the lowering phase and in area "B" during the lifting phase, as indicated in the
figure to the right. At the end of its descent travel, the pump will automatically connect to the
base opening. The upper chain shackle must be fixed to the hole on the anchoring bracket.
