Installation and connection


To reduce pump noise, connect the pump to the pipework via flexible, pressure-resistant hose lines for fixed in-
stallation.

Equip the suction line with a pre-filter and a non-return or foot valve. In addition, fasten the suction hose (e.g. ty-
ing it to a stake) to take its weight off the pump.
• Install the pump in a horizontal and stable position in a dry place.
– For permanent installation of the pump, ensure that a sufficiently large collecting basin can be positioned under-
neath the discharge screw for emptying the pump.
• If possible, install the pump in a higher position than the container/reservoir from which the water is to be pumped. If
this is not possible, a pressure-proof valve must be fitted between the pump and the suction hose.
• Only use vacuum-proof pressure hoses on the pressure and suction side.
 B
• Screw the suction hose and the pressure hose together with the hose connector, hose clip and fitting onto the suc-
tion side (G1) or pressure side (G1) respectively.
