• Maximum Liquid Temperature: 160º F (71º C)
• Starts per hour: 20 – evenly distributed.
Piping
• Pump MUST be installed horizontally on a solid fl at surface,
with discharge on top.
• Allow adequate space for servicing and ventilation. Protect
the unit from weather and water damage due to rain or
fl ooding or freezing temperatures.
• Piping should be no smaller than the suction and discharge
connections and kept as short as possible, avoiding unneces-
sary fi ttings to minimize friction losses. See Table 1.
• All piping MUST be independently supported and MUST
NOT place any piping loads on the pump.
NOTICE: DO NOT FORCE PIPING INTO PLACE AT
PUMP SUCTION AND DISCHARGE
CONNECTIONS.
• The use of Tefl on™ tape, or equivalent, is recommended for
ALL pipe joints.
• All pipe joints MUST be airtight.
PIPING – SUCTION
• Total suction lift, including elevation and pipe friction loss,
should not exceed 25 feet.
• Install an airtight union in the suction line close to the pump.
See Figure 1.
