Pump Connections - Stuart Turner PH 35 ES B Installation, Operation & Maintenance Instructions Manual

2.30 Before deciding where to locate the unit, check to ensure the static outlet
head (Fig. 8) does not exceed the maximum requirements of 13 metres for all
models.
2.31 A footvalve and strainer must always be used and the suction pipework size
must match the pump.
2.32 Lay the suction piping over the shortest possible distance and ensure there is
a constant rise from the liquid source to the pump. Any high spots will cause
air pockets to form, reducing system efficiency.
2.33 Ensure all joints in suction pipework are completely airtight. Failure to comply
will result in loss of prime.
2.34 The intake of the footvalve/strainer should be positioned such that it cannot
be blocked with debris or silt that are frequently found in the bottom of
sumps and wells.
2.35 When a footvalve is installed in the suction pipework, it is recommended that
suitable pressure relief valve be fitted in the discharge (outlet) pipework from
the pump.
