– Lay the pipe so as to prevent the formation of air pockets.
– Use the least possible number of bends.
– Bends must have the largest possible radius.
– The pipe system must be completely airtight.
– In the case of a non-self-priming pump, in which the liquid does not flow towards the pump, install a
foot valve with a sufficiently large flow capacity.
– In the case of polluted liquids, always install a suction strainer or solids separation screen with a
sufficiently large net opening area. The filtration particle size of the suction strainer must be equal to
or less than the solids handling specification of the pump.
