3 Installation
3.1 Placement
The pump is not suited for being installed in explosion hazard areas.
Please contact us first when planning such an application. Before installing
the pump it must be disconnected from all sources of electrical power and
protected against being switched on inadvertently. Only trained staff may
install the pump.
3.1.1 Floor
The foundations carrying the pump must be rated as a minimum require-
ment at 10,000 N/m
2
.
An inclination of over 10 degrees from the vertical axis is not permissible
because of the risk of toppling.
When operating the pump, an angle exceeding 2 degrees from the vertical
axis is not permissible.
The pump should be placed on a flat and level surface. Pumps with castors
must only be moved and placed on a level floor.
Screw the pump feet out to such an extent that the forces are uniformly dis-
tributed. Thereafter lock the hexagon nuts at the disc shaped feet against the
bottom trough.
3.1.2 Air Cooling and Pump Covers
The SP 250 is mostly cooled via its housing with cooling fins on most of its
area and with the aid of a radial fan.
The location where the pump is installed must be selected so that an ade-
quate supply and discharge of cooling air is ensured. The minimum clearanc-
es which need to be maintained are given in the dimensional drawing for the
pump.
As standard the pump is equipped with covers. These ensure even cooling of
the pump and have besides the protective function, also a silencing effect.
The noise level of the SP 250 corresponds at ultimate pressure with fitted
silencers or connected discharge line to the values given in the Technical
Data. In all other operating modes and with other equipment, higher values
may be attained. Suitable hearing protection measures must be intro-
duced.
