Make sure no impurities can enter the pump.
1. Clean all pipin g parts and armatures pri or to assembly.
2. Ensure no flan ge seals protrude inwards.
3. Remove any blind fl anges, plugs, protective foils and/or
protective paint from flanges.

aggregate and all operating forces which occur.
Make sure that the distance and alignment of the pipe
flanges comply with the pump dimensi ons (→ setup draw-
ing).
1. Remove the transport and se aling covers from the pump.
2. Lift the pump aggregate (→ 4.1 Transport, Page 12).
3. Raise the pump aggregate betwee n the pipe ends.
– Observe the pumping direction of the pump.
– Horizontal installation: Motor at top.
– Vertical installation: Connections (A5, E6) at top.
4. Screw t he suction flange and discharge flange to the pipe.
– Maintain the prescribed tightening torques
(→ 9.2.5 Tightening torques, Page 37).
5.3.3 Installing auxiliary pipes (if available)
Follow the manufacturers' specifications for any available
auxiliary systems.
1. Connect the auxiliary pipes to the auxiliary connections s o
that they are stress-free and do not leak (→ setup drawing).
2. To a void air pockets, run the pipes with a continuous slope
up to the pump.
3. On versions with quenching:
– Feed the quenching egress (QO2) into a clo sed con-
