22 C10 circulation pump Maximum achievable length of the ring line with 3/4“ tubes or tubes with at least 20 mm inner diameter T-pieces, branches, and spur lines must be avoided within the ring pipe. Unavoidable spur lines must be protected against frost using auxiliary pipe heating. 1 metre should be deducted from the total cable length for each elbow piece and T-piece in the ring pipe. Maximum achievable length of the ring line with 1/2“ tubes or tubes with at least 15 mm inner diameter A circulation pump keeps the water in a ring pipe in permanent circulation and thus in constant motion. The risk of microbial contamination is reduced, increasing water quality. Spur lines should be avoided in circulation systems, as bacteria can multiply rapidly, particularly in stagnant water. Good water quality is a basic prerequisite of animal health. As the failure of the circulation pump and heater would lead to the ring pipe and water bowl freezing relatively quickly, suitable alarm systems (e.g. acoustic signals) should be integrated into the installation so that you can react quickly in event of failure. The circulation pump itself must be installed in a frost-free room.

In order to keep the ring pipe frostfree even at very low temperatures, the C10 circulation pump also has a 3 kW heating element that heats the water and can be switched on manually if required. The heating element automatically switches on if the temperature drops below the set thermostat temperature. Insulated pipelines are a basic prerequisite for proper functioning. The maximum practical length of the ring pipe is 250 metres, and depends heavily on the number of installed water bowls, branch lines and arches. insulated polyethylene pipeline length insulated galvanised steel pipeline length non-insulated polyethylene pipeline length non-insulated galvanised steel pipeline length insulated polyethylene pipeline length insulated galvanised steel pipeline length non-insulated polyethylene pipeline length non-insulated galvanised steel pipeline length 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1011121314151617181920 0 50 100 150 200 250 123456789101112 0 20 40 60 80 100 120 140
