4.0 Installation
4.1 Pump Location and Installation
Locate pump in an area convenient to solution tank and electri-
cal supply.
The pump should be accessible for routine maintenance, and
should not be subjected to ambient temperatures above 122°F
(50°C). If the pump will be exposed to direct sunlight, LMI black,
UV resistant tubing should be installed.
4.2 Pump Mounting
The pump can be mounted in one of two ways:
A. FLOODED SUCTION (ideal installation); or
B. SUCTION LIFT - when suction lift is less than 5 feet (1.5
m) for solutions having a specific gravity of water. For denser
solutions, consult distributor.
Your LMI metering pump must be mounted so that the suction
and discharge valves are vertical. NEVER position pump
head and fittings horizontally.
Electrical Connections
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, install only on a circuit
protected by a ground-fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). The me-
tering pump must be plugged into a grounded outlet with ratings
conforming to the data on the pump control panel. The pump must
be connected to a good ground. DO NOT USE ADAPTERS!
All wiring must conform to local electrical codes.
WARNING: Do not hook a US style pump plug into a non-US (UK, Aust,
NZ or Swiss) wired power system. The US style 240VAC power system has
two 110VAC hot legs and one neutral. The European style system has one
240VAC hot leg and a neutral. Hooking up a US pump to the European
wired system will cause pump failure.
