INSTALLATION
DANGER of suffocation!
Toxic or harmful substances in sewage pump chambers can lead
to infections or suffocation.
• During any work in pump chambers, a second person must be
present for safety reasons.
• Ensure that the pump chamber and the surrounding area are ade-
quately ventilated.
NOTE:
During dimensioning and installation, the applicable national and
regional standards and regulations for installation of sewage tech-
nology systems must be observed, e.g. EN 1610.
Likewise, the installation and operating instructions for the acces-
sories must be observed.
In order to prevent damage to the product or serious injury during
installation, the following points must be observed:
• The installation work – assembly and installation of the pump
chamber – may only be performed by qualified personnel in compli-
ance with the safety instructions.
• Before starting the installation work, the pump chamber must be
checked for transport damage.
Failure to comply with instructions for assembly and installation
jeopardises the safety of the pump chamber/personnel and voids the
safety declarations issued.
5.1. Installation types
• Concealed floor installation outside buildings
5.2. Installation
DANGER due to falling!
Personnel can fall into the open pump chamber during installa-
tion and suffer serious injuries.
• During installation, the installation location must be appropriately
marked and secured.
• Always close the installed pump chamber with an appropriate
pump cover.
Note the following for installation of the pump chamber:
• This work must be performed by specialist personnel and electrical
work must be performed by a qualified electrician.
• The installation location must be frost-free.
• A second person must be present for safety reasons. Take the
necessary counter measures if there is a risk of toxic or suffocating
gases collecting.
• If lifting equipment is to be used for installation of the pump
chamber, problem-free installation of the lifting equipment must
be ensured. The location where the pump chamber is used and set
down must be safely accessible with the lifting equipment. The set-
down location must have a solid bearing surface. To transport the
pump chamber, the lifting gear must be attached to the specified
lifting eyes. When using chains, these must be connected to the
lifting eyes using a shackle. Only structurally approved lifting gear
may be used.
• The power supply cables for the pump used and for the signal trans-
mitters must be laid in such a way that safe operation and prob-
lem-free installation/dismantling are possible at any time. Check the
cable cross-section used and the selected routing to make sure the
available cable length is sufficient.
• Check the dimensioning documents (installation plans, inlet and
outlet conditions) for completeness and accuracy.
