Hydraulic power: 12.5 kW The required limit value for this duty point lies at 12.5 kW x 1.15 = 14.3 kW. A motor with a power of 15 kW would be the correct choice. Wilo recommends using a B3 motor (IM1001) with base installation, which is compatible with IEC34-1. •...
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 recommends using premium, non-shrink concrete of an adequate thickness for manufacturing. This would pre- vent oscillations from being transmitted.
• The expansion of the pipes in the event of a temperature rise is to be compensated by suitable means. • Avoid air pockets in piping by means of appropriate installations. Installation and operating instructions • Wilo-Atmos GIGA-NHT • Ed.01/2023-10...
Precondition for reliable, smooth and efficient operation of a pump unit is proper alignment of the pump and the drive shaft.

Risk of damage due to vibrations! Incorrect alignment can lead to vibrations. Vibrations can damage or destroy individual components. • Carefully align the pump unit until all measurement results are within the permissible range.

• 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 NPSHA value is always higher than the NPSHR value. Installation and operating instructions • Wilo-Atmos GIGA-NHT • Ed.01/2023-10...
Filling and venting NOTICE In the standard version of the Atmos GIGA-NHT pump, the air vent valve is not located on the pump housing, but rather on the sealing chamber. The suction line and pump are vented via a suitable venting device on the pressure flange of the pump.
Note: When pumping heat carrier oil, the pump only provides its full power when the fluid has reached the operating temperature. Before that, the viscosity of the liquid changes the duty point. Installation and operating instructions • Wilo-Atmos GIGA-NHT • Ed.01/2023-10...
If there is no danger of frost, make sure the fluid level is sufficient. • Operate the pump every month for 5 minutes. Doing this prevents deposits from occur- ring in the pump compartment. Installation and operating instructions • Wilo-Atmos GIGA-NHT • Ed.01/2023-10...
Maintenance/repair It is recommended to have the pump serviced and checked by the Wilo customer service. Maintenance and repair work require the pump to be partially or completely dismantled. The pump housing can be installed in the piping.
Wilo recommends checking the flexible coupling elements regularly and replacing them at the first sign of wear. • 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 a plain bearing and a grease-lubricated radial ball bearing, which have service life lubrication.
