Warranty Each and every product manufactured by Wilden is built to meet the highest standards of quality. Every pump is functionally tested to ensure integrity of operation. Wilden warrants that pumps, accessories and parts manufactured or supplied by it to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of five (5) years from date of installation or six (6) years from date of manufacture, whichever comes first.
NOTE: When installing PTFE diaphragms, it is important to tighten outer pistons simultaneously (turning in NOTE: Not all materials are available for all models. See “Wilden opposite directions) to ensure tight fit. (See “Maximum Pump Designation System” for material options for your pump.

The suction pipe size should be at least equal to or larger than the elbows, bends and fittings should be avoided. Pipe sizes should diameter size of the suction inlet on your Wilden pump. The suction be selected to keep friction losses within practical limits. All piping hose must be a non-collapsible, reinforced type because these should be supported independently of the pump.
