4 INSTALLATION
Equipment operated in hazardous locations
must comply with the relevant explosion protection
regulations. See section 1.6.4, Products used in
potentially explosive atmospheres.
The condition of minimum submergence
must be respected. Level control shall be fitted in
the sump to prevent liquid level dropping below
minimum acceptable.
All equipment must be grounded.
4.1 Location
The pump should be located to allow room for
access, ventilation, maintenance and inspection
with ample headroom for lifting.
4.2 Foundation
There are many methods of
installing pump units to their foundations. The
correct method depends on the size of the pump
unit, its location and noise vibration limitations.
Non-compliance with the provision of correct
foundation and installation may lead to failure of
the pump and as such would be outside the terms
of the warranty.
