companion coupling is securely fastened with proper gaskets.
Barbed Discharge Fitting (Barb) –
Place hose clamp over hose and push hose to the base of the
discharge fitting. Tighten the hose clamp to secure the hose in place.
4.3.2
Avoid dropping the pump or other strong impact. Lift the pump by
holding it firmly with the hands or by attaching a wire rope (a) or chain
to the handle.
Note:
For proper procedures for handling the cable assembly, refer to
Section Electrical Wiring in this manual.
Do not operate the pump dry. Doing so will prevent the pump from
attaining its full potential and may also damage the pump and lead to
a short and electrical shock.
In order to properly discharge water, provide adequate piping to the
area where the pump is mounted. Improper piping may lead to water
leakage or other malfunctions.Install the pump only in an area that can
maintain a proper water level.
4.3.3
Install the pump only in an area that can maintain a proper water level.
Note:
For details on the water level necessary for pump operation,
refer to “Water Level During Operation” in the Operation section.
4.3.4
When using a hose to provide piping to the pump, observe the
following:
Use the shortest possible length of discharge hose and minimize the
number of bends. Verify that the end of the hose (discharge side) is
lifted above the water surface (a). If the end of the hose is submerged
in water, it may cause the water to flow back (b) when the pump has
been stopped. If the end of the hose is located at a level that is lower
than that of the source water surface, water may continue to flow out
even after the pump has been stopped.
Note:
Appropriate piping materials must be provided by the user.
Piping materials are not included with the product
..
If large quantities of sediment are drawn into the pump, damage
resulting from wear to the pump can lead to current leakage and
electrical shock.
4.3.5
Use the pump in the upright position. To prevent the pump from
becoming submerged in mud, mount it on a block or other firm base if
necessary.
4.3.6
If used in a permanent installation, where the pump is not readily
accessible after installation, please contact Wacker for a duplicate
nameplate to be installed at the wellhead or on the control box so that
it will be readily visible.
