•Try to keep the suction lift as short as possible.
Protect diaphragm from abnormal breakage, inlet pressure must be
kept below the following values:
*PTFE diaphragm: 0.02MPa (height 2m) During operation
: 0.05MPa (height 5m) Not in operation
*Other diaphragms: 0.1MPa (height 10m)
(Condition with fresh water under ambient temperature)
•Remember to provide sufficient space around the pump for
maintenance.
•Can be changed the direction of the fluid intake port and the discharge
port opposite from each other. (For switching, see the maintenance
manual.)
•The exhaust from the pump will contain some sludge.
When operating the pump where it would have an impact on the
environment, the exhaust should be directed to a place where there will
be no environmental impact.
2) Remove the pump from the package and install it in the designated location.
3) When fixing the pump in place, use the
