thinners or strippers, acid based descalents or aggressive cleaning

Pumps supplied with flexible inlet and outlet hoses: Flexible pipes are
supplied with this pump variant. The pump inlet and outlet ports are threaded
G ¾ male. These ports are provided with a flat sealing face suitable for use with
an appropriately sized flat faced fitting and fibre or rubber washer. Ensure a
water tight seal is achieved when the pump is both stationary and running.
a) Hoses incorporating integral isolating
valves should be applied to the inlet
side of pump to satisfy servicing
requirements.
b) Standard hoses with no integral
isolating valve should be applied to
the outlet side of pump.
c) Use correct sized flat headed
screwdriver for opening and
closing integrated isolating valve to
prevent damage.
Please note these valves are of quarter turn design, rotate clockwise to close
and anti-clockwise to open. Failure to comply to these instructions could lead
to valve damage.
