DOC No: 7046 REV G

Do not overtighten ﬁttings or leave them loose and susceptible to leaks. Refer

to the ﬁtting manufacturer’s installation instructions for torque values.

Ensure that inlet and discharge pipes are connected correctly in relation

to the direction of ﬂow arrow marked on the pump.

Fittings

It is recommended that the pipe ﬁttings are connected to the pump before the pump/

motor is ﬁtted into the installation. The following should be observed when connecting

pipe ﬁttings:

• Pipe sealing compound or PTFE tape should be applied to the threads to prevent

leakage.

• Apply sealant or tape sparingly to prevent a build up of excess material which may

dislodge and clog the pump. Two wraps of PTFE tape are usually sufﬁcient.

• Secure the pump in a vice (use pads to protect the pump body) and support the

motor when installing ﬁttings.

• Ensure all joints are airtight.

• Ensure all ﬁttings are of the correct size for the pump being installed, refer to the table

below for correct sizing:
