2 Selection guide SCALA 2. Selection guide This guide helps you to size and select the most suitable SCALA product. Follow the instructions below to determine which product variant is best suited to your needs. 1. Choose the right pump for your application.
3 SCALA Installation and operation 3. Installation and operation 3.1 Mechanical installation 3.1.3 Inlet and outlet pipes Placing the pump above ground is generally a convenient way to establish water or rainwater supply. The pump can be installed both indoors and outdoors. The product should be placed as close as possible to the liquid to be pumped to minimize the length of the inlet pipe. The motor is water-cooled, but we still recommend a clearance of 0.5 m (1.64 ft) on three sides of the product.
3 SCALA Installation and operation 3.1.4 Maximum system pressure Make sure that the system in which the pump is installed is designed for the maximum pump pressure. When installing a non-return valve in the plumbing system, make sure that the system has an expansion tank at the water heater and that the pressure-relief valve in the water heater is plumbed to a drain. Carry out the installation in accordance with local regulations. The maximum inlet pressure depends on the head at the actual duty point.
