5. Installation

5.1 Location

When selecting an installation site or designing a skid package, consideration should be given to
access for routine maintenance.

PulsaPro 900

pumps are designed to operate indoors and outdoors. At a minimum, a

covering to protect the pump from direct weather and sunlight is required. External heating
and/or the use of synthetic lubricants for the gearbox is recommended if ambient temperatures
below 20

°C (0°F) or above 40°C (104°F) are anticipated. Check with the factory if you are

concerned with the suitability of the operating environment.

5.2 Mounting

The pump must be rigidly bolted to a solid and flat foundation to minimize vibration, which can
loosen connections. Bolt each base with a minimum of 1” diameter studs with flat and lock
washers in 4 locations per base (note: the quad configurations include 2 bases). The pump must
be level within 2

°. This will assure that the oil is maintained at the proper level and that the

check valves can operate properly.
