® pumps.

2. Installation
2.1 Location
When selecting an installation site or designing a chemical feed system, plan for operation and routine
maintenance. Provide 1M (3.25FT) of space around the pump for this purpose.
PULSA GLM ® pumps are designed to operate in an environment where the pump is protected from direct
sunlight, and precipitation (i.e., under shelter). The ambient temperature must be between 0
° C (32° F)
and 40
° C (104° F). If necessary add environmental controls.
The pump must be rigidly bolted to a solid and flat foundation to minimize vibration and prevent
loosening of the connections. The pump must be level within 5
° to assure proper check valve operation.
2.2 Motor
The PULSA GLM® is typically shipped with the motor pre-installed. It must be wired in accordance with
local and national requirements by a qualified electrician. Please refer to the motor nameplate for further
manufacture specific information.
If the PULSA GLM® was purchased less motor, please refer to section 5.4 Motor Installation for further
instructions.
