Installation
The SV pump is designed to offer a variety of mounting possibilities, including as a Drum
Pumping Station, and as a Tote Pumping Station. It also features an integral bypass valve to
help minimize wear when the pump is operating with the nozzle closed.
Pump Only
The SV Stainless Steel pump
is designed for year round use
indoors and out. The pump
should be bolted securely to a
solid, stationary surface using
at least 4 bolts.
The SV Stainless Steel pump
can be installed horizontally or
vertically, allowing a variety of
mounting options.
CAUTION! Threaded pipe joints and connections must be sealed with the
appropriate sealant or sealant tape for the fluid being pumped to minimize the
possibility of leaks.
CAUTION! DO NOT mount the pump in a manner or location that will allow it to
sit in standing or flowing water, or rain. Extended exposure to water can and will
damage the motor.
Pump Base Mounting Hole Configuration
CAUTION! If the pump is to be mounted vertically, it must be mounted with the
pump end DOWN. Mounting the pump end up may cause premature wear and
motor failure.
