(1). Mounting on the ceiling (3/overhead) or wall (4/mo- tor positioned at the bottom) is usually possible fol- lowing consultation with Schmalz. Mounting on the wall with the motor positioned at the top (2) is not permitted. The pump can be installed on solid ground without any anchoring. For installations on a substructure, at- tachment using rubber buffer elements is recommended.
7 Installation Dimensioning of the Suction Line The diameter of the lines must correspond to the nominal connection width at minimum. For lines longer than 2 m, the next larger cross sec- tion must be chosen. For lines longer than 5 m, we also recommend fit- ting non-return valves as close as possible to the suc- tion connection.
7 Installation 7.6 Electrical Installation DANGER Electrocution by live components or wires Serious injury or death! 4 Electrical installation work may only be carried out by qualified personnel. 4 Make sure that the electrical components are not live before installation, maintenance and troubleshooting.

7 Installation 7.6.1 Electrical Connection 1. Connect the motor in accordance with the connection diagram (see the terminal box cover). 2. Consult the motor type plate for information about the permissible connection types for the motor. The motor must be protected with a motor- protection switch, for which the service factor (SF) must also be taken into account.

The fault cannot be corrected If you cannot identify any of the listed causes, send the pump to Schmalz customer service. 1. Flush the pump with air for a number of minutes (if required for safety reasons: with an inert gas) at the atmospheric pressure to clear hazardous or abrasive gases from the pump head.
10 Maintenance 10 Maintenance Follow the detailed description of the safety instructions (> See ch. 2.5 Residual Risks, p. 8) . If a maintenance task requires any protective devices to be disassembled, they must be disassembled only for the duration of the maintenance task. After the maintenance task is complete, all protective devices are to be fully installed in their designated location immediately and checked for functionality.
