Product description Design The Wilo-Atmos GIGA-N pump is a single-stage back pull-out-centrifugal pump with spiral housing for horizontal installation. Power and dimensions in accordance with EN 733. Suitable Wilo control devices (e.g. Comfort control system, CC-HVAC) can control the power of the pumps continuously.
Accessories have to be ordered separately. For a detailed list, consult the catalogue and spare parts documentation.

Use only properly functioning lifting equipment to lift and lower the pump. Ensure that the pump does not become jammed during lifting and lowering. Do not exceed the maximum bearing capacity of the lifting equipment! Check that lifting equip- ment is functioning properly before use! WILO SE 2019-04...

If necessary, use a lifting arm, to which the lift- ing gear can be vertically attached. ▪ Ensure the load is lifted vertically! ▪ Prevent the suspended load from swinging! Installation and operating instructions Wilo-Atmos GIGA-N...
▪ Mount the pump in a readily accessible place. This makes it easier to complete inspec- tions, maintenance (e.g. mechanical seal change) or replacement in the future. ▪ A travelling crane or a device for attaching hoisting gear should be installed above the set-up site of large pumps. WILO SE 2019-04...
The base must be able to support the unit installed on the baseplate indefinitely. The base must be level to ensure there is no tension on the baseplate or unit. Wilo recom- mends using premium, non-shrink concrete of an adequate thickness for manufactur- ing.
Page 18
This allows the screws to be moved in order to achieve their final positions. Wilo recommends initially pouring the base up to about 25 mm below the planned height. The surface of the concrete base must be well contoured before curing. Remove the pipe sleeves after the concrete cures.
Changes to the alignment during operation can result in property dam- age. The pump and motor are usually aligned at ambient temperature. Thermal expansion at operating temperature can change the alignment, particularly in the case of very Installation and operating instructions Wilo-Atmos GIGA-N...

▪ Finally, check the function of the coupling and shaft. The coupling and shaft must be easy to turn by hand. ▪ After correct alignment, mount the coupling guard. The tightening torques for the pump and motor on the baseplate are listed in the table “Tightening torques for pump and motor”. WILO SE 2019-04...
Cables must be bent off to form outlet loops near screwed connections to avoid the ac- cumulation of drip water. ▪ Unused cable feedthroughs should be sealed with the sealing plates provided, and screwed tight. ▪ Reinstall any uninstalled safety devices, such as terminal box covers!

• The pump must not be operated outside of the specified operating range. • Do not operate the pump with the shut-off devices closed. • Make sure that the NPSH-A value is always higher than the NPSH-R value. WILO SE 2019-04...
Filling and venting NOTICE The standard version of the Atmos GIGA-N pump has no air vent valve. The suction line and pump are vented via a suitable venting device on the pressure flange of the pump. An optional air vent valve is available.
▪ While the pump is starting, vent completely via the venting screw. CAUTION Risk of property damage! If abnormal noises, vibrations, temperatures or leaks occur when starting up: • Switch the pump off immediately and remedy the cause. WILO SE 2019-04...
▪ Spray the interior of the pump with a preservative through the suction and discharge ports. ▪ Close the suction and discharge ports with caps. ▪ Grease or oil the blank components. For this, use silicone-free grease or oil. Observe the manufacturer’s instructions for preservatives. Installation and operating instructions Wilo-Atmos GIGA-N...
Maintenance/repair Maintenance/repair It is recommended to have the pump serviced and checked by the Wilo customer ser- vice. Maintenance and repair work require the pump be partially or completely dismantled. The pump housing can be installed in the piping. DANGER...
Maintenance/repair ▪ Wilo recommends briefly putting the standby pumps into operation at least once a week to ensure they are always ready for operation. Maintenance tasks The bearing bracket of the pump is equipped with roller bearings that have lifetime lub- rication.
