1. Cut metal strap (4) to the required length L (L = circumference of riser pipe +
approx. 200 mm allowance) and bend both ends inwards by approx. 100 mm.
2.
Fully open the turnbuckle (1) and attach it to one end of the metal strap.
3. Place the cable guard (2) around the power cable (3). Guide it around the riser
(5) together with the metal strap (4). Then attach the other end of the
turnbuckle (1) to the metal strap (4).
4. Tighten the turnbuckle (1) with a screwdriver so that the power cable (3) cannot
slip downwards by its own weight!
5.4 Installing the pump set in a horizontal position
NOTE
Observe all safety instructions contained in this manual for the following
installation instructions.(⇨ Section 5.1 Page 20)
WARNING
Installation on mounting surface which is unsecured and cannot support the load
Personal injury and damage to property!
▷ Use a concrete of compressive strength class C12/15 which meets the
requirements of exposure class XC1 to EN 206-1.
▷ The mounting surface must have set and must be completely horizontal and
even.
▷ Observe the weights indicated.
CAUTION
Temperature and pressure increase of the motor fill
Damage to the motor!
▷ Always protect non-flooded pump sets against direct exposure to sun.
NOTE
Only install pump sets in horizontal position if they have been approved for this
type of installation.
Submersible borehole pumps can be installed in a horizontal position, provided the
pump set has been approved for this type of installation. (See data sheet.)
The required accessories depend on the weight and the overall length of the pump
set. If agreed with KSB, the pump set is supplied with the accessories for the required
installation type already fitted.
For assembly at the site:
It is imperative to use original accessories (bearing pedestals, supporting frames,
pressure shroud).
5.4.1 Installing the pump set on supporting frame and bearing pedestal
NOTE
Fasten the power cable as well as any measuring and control cables to the piping at
least every three metres as well as upstream and downstream of any pipe bends by
means of cable ties or other suitable fasteners. Prevent any fluttering of the cables
caused by the water flow. This applies especially to any other types of cable guide;
use a protecting tube, if required.
