4.5 Outdoor installation

If you install the motor outdoors, provide the motor with a cover
and open the drain holes to avoid condensation on the electronic
components. See figures
2
and 3.
When fitting a cover to the motor, observe the
guidelines in section
The cover must be sufficiently large to ensure that the motor is
not exposed to direct sunlight, rain or snow. Grundfos does not
supply covers. We therefore recommend that you have a cover
built for the specific application. In areas with high humidity, we
recommend that you connect the motor permanently to the mains
supply and activate the built-in standstill heating function. See
section

4.6 Drain holes

When the motor is installed in moist surroundings or areas with
high humidity, the bottom drain hole must be open. The enclosure
class of the motor will then be lower. This helps prevent
condensation in the motor as the motor becomes self-venting,
and it allows water and humid air to escape.
The motor has a plugged drain hole on the drive side. You can
turn the flange 90 ° to both sides or 180 °.
