Installation Instructions
Install the pump in a dry, well-ventilated, flat, shaded
area that has enough space to easily place and remove
the pump, and perform maintenance service when
necessary. If the pump is installed inside an engine
room, the floor must have a drain.
to install the motor pump on an elevated base
in order to avoid
contact with humidity, insects,
animals
and
direct contact
The motor pump must be attached to the floor or base;
according to the model there may be points of attachment
to the motor and / or plastic parts of the motor pump.
The rear of the pump / motor must have a minimum
distance of 10 cm between the motor and any
other object, wall, etc. * Check the image below:

Hydraulic installation
Check the model of your motor pump to find out
the inlet and outlet dimensions. Never use a PVC
pipe with a smaller diameter than the inlet and /
or outlet of the pump; this compromises the flow,
performance

operation
BPF PLATINIUM - Input 2" threaded internal and
2 1/2" weld external / Output 2" threaded internal
and 2 1/2" weld external; unions are included.
Use of PVC pipes: Use PVC pipes for suction and
discharge. Weld the tubes and connections using
adhesives appropriate for this purpose. When welding
the pipes and connections, avoid applying too much
adhesive so that it´ll run on and / or inside the equipment,
which would compromise its appearance and function.
Important Recommendations
• For better performance and safety, it is recommended
to use pipes with larger diameters, never smaller than
the motor pump inlet / outlet diameter.
It is recommended
•The suction piping must be equal to or greater than
the return diameter.
•The plumbing of the pool should be kept as short runs
with
water.
as possible.
•Avoid elbows on the suction line, especially near the
motor pump. These elbows can cause undesirable
turbulence in the flow of water.
•Anchor the pipes properly. Secure them using
brackets on the floor or on the walls.
•Avoid straining the pump nozzles.
•Achieve perfect alignment of the pipes with the ports
of the pump.
•In installations with a motor pump installed below
the level of the pool water, install valves in the suction
and discharge lines. Keep these valves closed during
equipment maintenance or pre- filter cleaning.
•It is recommended that an installed suction valve,
elbow or tee is not closer than five (5) times the
diameter of the suction pipe.
Example:
A motor pump with a 60 mm inlet diameter, using a 60
mm suction pipe requires a 300 mm (30 cm) straight
pipe in front of the pump suction inlet. This will help
the pump prime more quickly and have a longer service
life.
