  • Page 7: Pre-Installation Check

    PRE-INSTALLATION CHECK Pressure vessel Hand tighten Figure 2 Note: This image is for reference only. The pressure vessel (Fig. 2) is factory fitted to the pump assembly. To eliminate any risk that the vessel has lost its assembly torque and sealing ability during transit, it must be checked prior to installation and should be hand tight.
  • Page 8: Important Facts - Read Before Commencing Pump Installation

    IMPORTANT FACTS - READ BEFORE COMMENCING PUMP INSTALLATION Water Storage Capacity The hot and cold water storage capacity must be sufficient to meet the flow rates required by the pumped equipment and any other water using fittings and appliances, which may be operated simultaneously. Ensure the pump is primed as described in the priming section before starting, damage to the shaft seal will result otherwise.
  • Page 9 Plumbing Installation Regulations The plumbing installation must comply with the current water and building regulations. The plumbing installation must be installed by a qualified person. Pressure Vessel Pressure vessel is charged at the factory see Section 10 - Maintenance for details.
  • Page 10: Location - General

    • Direction of flow: Ensure the water flow is in the direction of the arrow that is marked on the flow switch reed clamp (vertically upwards). • Flexible hoses: Only use the Stuart Turner hose set supplied with the pump. • Isolating valves: Separate system isolating valves (non restrictive) must be fitted to allow easy pump service.
  • Page 11 Preferred Pump Location The pump must, for optimum performance, be sited as close as possible to and never more than 4 metres from the HOT WATER cylinder. The pump should always be sited BELOW the HOT WATER take-off from the cylinder. The pump location is also dependent on limitations of the static inlet and outlet heads of the installation.
  • Page 12 Non-Preferred Pump Location If it is necessary to position the Pump above the secondary tapping on the hot cylinder it is fed by, the risk of introducing air will be increased To avoid this risk one of the two following solutions must be adopted: The use of a Top Entry cylinder flange.
  • Page 13 Figure 6 Twin Pump...
  • Page 14 Cold Water Connection The cold water supply: Must be a DEDICATED AIR FREE supply via a tank connector, and must be positioned at a slightly lower level (25 mm minimum) than the feed pipe to the hot water cylinder. Ensure that the pipework size from the cold water tank is 22mm minimum. Do not connect to the mains.

  • Page 16 Flexible Inlet and Outlet Hoses The pump inlet and outlet ports are threaded G ¾ M. These ports are provided with a flat sealing face suitable for use with an appropriately sized flat faced fitting and fibre or rubber washer. Ensure a water tight seal is achieved when the pump is both stationary and running.
  • Page 17 Hose to Pump The pump inlet and outlet ports have fittings which are specifically designed for connection to the G ¾ female running nuts on the flexible hoses. The hose end running nut is fitted with a rubber sealing washer which is held captive within the nut assembly.
  • Page 18 Hose to Pipework 1. The hoses are fitted with plastic push-in connectors, which must only be connected with the following: a. 15 mm diameter copper pipe to BS EN 1057 R250 (half hard) Table 3. b. 15 mm plastic pipe to BS 7291 part 1 and part 2 (Table 1), or part 3 (Table 1) plus internal support sleeve*.
