5.4 Connecting the piping
CAUTION
Stresses and strains at the piping
Impermissible load acting on the collecting tank!
▷ Connect the piping without transmitting any stresses or strains; make sure that
no forces and moments act on the collecting tank.
▷ Protect the piping against frost.
NOTE
All connections are suitable for standardised pipe dimensions. The connections are
pressure-sealed and flexible.
If the waste water lifting unit is located below the flood level, the discharge line
must be laid with a backflow loop (180° bend) above the flood level.
If flooding above the flood level could occur, we recommend installing a gate valve
in close proximity to the system.

The product/accessories have been carefully drained, cleaned and decontaminated inside and outside prior to dispatch/
placing at your disposal.
We herewith declare that this product is free from hazardous chemicals, biological and radioactive substances.
For mag-drive pumps, the inner rotor unit (impeller, casing cover, bearing ring carrier, plain bearing, inner rotor) has been
removed from the pump and cleaned. In cases of containment shroud leakage, the outer rotor, bearing bracket lantern,
leakage barrier and bearing bracket or adapter have also been cleaned.
For canned motor pumps, the rotor and plain bearing have been removed from the pump for cleaning. In cases of leakage at
the stator can, the stator space has been examined for fluid leakage; if fluid handled has penetrated the stator space, it has
been removed.
No special safety precautions are required for further handling.
The following safety precautions are required for flushing fluids, fluid residues and disposal:
We confirm that the above data and information are correct and complete and that dispatch is effected in accordance with the
relevant legal provisions.
