3.14 Typical Low Level Installation:
In certain installations it may be necessary to install a 90° bend on the inlet or
outlet connections of the pump before the flexible hose to accommodate a low
level installation.
Below are some preferred connection options. All connections seal on the
pump body using a fibre or rubber sealing washer. Tap connector fittings should
be used which must be of an appropriate pressure and temperature rating.
It is essential when using any of the fittings shown below, that a correct
water tight seal is obtained between the pump body and selected fitting and also
the flexible hose and selected fitting. If in doubt contact the fitting manufacturer
and confirm compatibility with the connection to be sealed.
Carefully check connections and pipework for leaks whilst pump running and
stationary before leaving the installation unattended.
If you have any concern either about using push-in fittings or should the joint leak
on final test, isolate the water supplies and contact Techflow Technical Helpline on
01444 258017.

In the case of horizontal feeds use a 15 mm

bend the hose more than 30° as they may become
damaged, transmit noise or leak.
