Installation
1. Air pocket
Figure 19: Incorrect
1. No air pockets
2. Gradual rise
Figure 20: Correct
1. No air pockets
2. Eccentric reducer
3. Gradual rise
Figure 21: Gradual rise to the pump – correct
1. Distance plus eccentric reducer straightens the flow
Figure 22: Suction pipe above the pump – correct
1. Path of the water
Figure 23: Suction pipe above the pump – incorrect
Suction-piping valve considerations
Suction valves
CAUTION:
Never throttle the flow from the suction side. Only use suction valves to isolate the pump for maintenance, and install such valves in positions to avoid air pockets.
Before you install suction valves in the suction piping, review these considerations:
