1. SPECIFICATION
This manual contains essential information on the installation, operation and maintenance
of Bromic electro pumps. Please read it thoroughly. Bromic pumps, are centrifugal
horizontal electro pumps with self-priming capacities. The pumps are supplied with
century systems to attain suctions pressure of up to 9 Metres. When a foot valve is
connected, the pump will immediately self prime. Bromic pumps have been designed to
operate with clean water only, at a maximum temperature of 45°C. Other water types, must
not be used. Bromic pumps have tested under Bromic stringent test conditions. All Bromic
pumps conform to hydraulic and electric testing.
It is critical to follow these instructions including the electrical chart in order to install the
pumps correctly. Failure to follow these instructions may result in motor overcharging and
any other malfunctions. Bromic is not liable should instructions not have been followed.
2. INSTALLATION
The electric pumps must be placed as low as possible below the water level in order to
obtain the maximum suction lift.
For permanent installation of the pump, the pump should be attached to the floor or
ground using the appropriate holes in pump bracket. The pump should be installed in a dry
flood proof area.
3. PIPE ASSEMBLY
The suction pipe must not be "kinked" be or restricted and must be submerged 30 cms
below water level. This will prevent the formation of whirs and air suction pockets
Air will leak if suction exceeds 7 Metres. The use of a pipe with a larger diameter than the
admission port of the pump is recommended. The connections must be water-tight. It is
recommended to reduce pipe bends to a minimum inclination of 2%. The discharge pipe
should have a diameter equal or larger than the outlet pipe on the pump. The suction and
discharge pipes must not rest on the pump.
