4. INSTALLATION
4.1 LOCATION
When selecting an installation site or designing a skid package, consideration should be
given to access for routine maintenance.
PULSAR pumps are designed to operate indoors and outdoors, but it is desirable to
provide a hood or covering for outdoor service. External heating may be required if
ambient temperatures below -18 C (0 F) are anticipated. Check with the factory
regarding suitability of the operating environment.
The pump must be rigidly bolted to a solid and flat foundation to minimize vibration,
which can loosen connections. When the pump is bolted down, care must be taken to
