4.2 Minimum space
When the pump is installed in a permanent
installation with a float switch, and the cable
length is set to the minimum length of at least
2.5 in. (63.5 mm), the minimum dimensions of
the sump pit, basin or tank must be as shown in
fig. 2.
In addition, the sump pit, basin or tank must be
sized according to the relation between the
water flow to the sump pit, basin or tank and the
pump capacity.

4.3 Location
Pumps with or without a float switch can be used
in vertical position with the outlet port uppermost
or in horizontal or tilted position with the outlet
port as the highest point of the pump. See fig. 3.
During operation, the inlet strainer must be
completely covered by the pumped liquid.
Fig. 3
Pump positions
When the pipe or hose has been connected,
place the pump in its operating position.
Position the pump so that the inlet strainer will
not be blocked by sludge, mud or similar
materials.
We recommend that you place the pump on a
solid base. See fig. 4.
