Only qualified, licensed personnel should install pump and wiring
whilst observing local safety regulations.
Pump mount must:
Be located away from corrosive or flammable chemicals.
Have enough ventilation to maintain air temperature at less than the
maximum ambient temperature rating. If this pump is installed in an
enclosure/pump house, the enclosure must have adequate ventilation
and air circulation to keep the temperature in the enclosure at or below
the motor's rated ambient temperature whenever the pump is running.
Be solid - Level - Rigid - Vibration free. (To reduce vibration and pipe stress,
bolt pump to mount).
Allow pump suction inlet height to be as close to water level as possible.
Allow use of short, direct suction pipe (to reduce friction losses).
Allow for shut-off valves in suction and discharge piping.
Have adequate floor drainage to prevent flooding.
Be protected from excess moisture.
Allow adequate access for servicing pump and piping.
Pentair recommends mounting the pump on a concrete platform for quietest
performance.
NOTICE: For three-phase motor pumps, start the motor for a few revolutions
checking that rotation direction is clockwise (watch the motor from the fan
side). If rotation is counter-clockwise, change over the connections of two
phases.
