  • Page 7: Location

    2 LOCATION - GENERAL 2.11 Location: The preferred SPU Midi location is either on a solid wall or on a smooth level floor, both of sufficient strength to support the filled weight of the SPU Midi, close to the water source and a suitable overflow position (see Section 9 - Technical Specification for filled weight).
  • Page 8 SPU Midi that any noise is not amplified through loose panels or pipework. 2.21 Flexible hose: Only use the Stuart Turner hoses supplied with the SPU Midi. 2.22 Isolating valves: Separate system isolating valves (non-restrictive) must be fitted to allow easy service of the SPU Midi. Isolating valves must be mounted where specified to allow the system isolation and removal of the SPU Midi if needed.

    4 INSTALLATION 4.11 Fill valve flow restrictor guidelines: The side entry fill valve must be fitted with the correct filter and flow restrictor combination (dependant on the mains water pressure) into the G ½ threaded tail as outlined below: Coloured insert - To be used for water pressure between 1 and 4 bar White insert - To be used for water pressure above 4 bar Fig.
  • Page 11 4.13 Wall plate fixing: 1. If installing the SPU Midi on a wall ensure suitable fixings for the wall structure are used and are suitable to support the unit when fully filled with water (see technical section for filled weights). The holes in the wall plate are 6 mm in diameter, the maximum permissible screw head height is 3 mm.
  • Page 12 4.14 Floor installation: 1. If installed on a floor ensure the SPU Midi is located so it cannot be kicked or knocked over. 2. Ensure the floor surface on which the SPU Midi is located is flat and level. 3. If possible locate the unit against a wall for added stability. 4.
  • Page 13 6. The flexible hose and any wiring can be retained in the desired position using cable ties and the two metal cable retention points on the top left and right of the SPU tank. See Figs. 10 & 11. 7. The warning pipe should be connected to a suitable drain via a tundish enabling visual warning of an overflow condition.
