5.0 Installation
Note: All diagrams are strictly for guideline purposes only. Always consult
an expert before installing the pump into specialized systems. The pump
should be serviced by qualified persons only.
5.1 Mounting Location
Choose an area located near the chemical supply tank, chemical injection
point and electrical supply. Although the pump is designed to withstand
outdoor conditions, a cool, dry, well ventilated location is recommended.
Install the pump where it can be easily serviced.
! Mount the pump to a secure surface or wall using the enclosed hardware.
Wall mount to a solid surface only. Mounting to drywall with anchors is not
recommended.
! Mount the pump close to the injection point. Keep the inlet (suction) and
outlet (discharge) tubing as short as possible. Longer discharge tubing
increases the back pressure at the pump tube.
! Your solution tank should be sturdy. Keep the tank covered to reduce
fumes. Do not mount the pump directly over your tank. Chemical fumes
may damage the unit. Mount the pump off to the side or at a lower level
than the chemical container.
! Mounting the pump lower than the chemical container will gravity feed the
chemical into the pump. This “flooded suction” installation will aid in
priming the pump and will reduce output error due to increased suction lift.
We recommended installing a shut-off valve, pinch clamp or other means to
halt the gravity feed to the pump during servicing.
! Be sure your installation does not constitute a cross connection with the
drinking water supply. Check your local plumbing codes.
