During operation
CAUTION
Property damage through pressure surges!
Pressure surges can occur when switching off the pump. These pressure surges can damage the discharge pipe and the lifting unit.
- Increase the follow-up time to prevent pressure surges. A longer follow-up time results in slurping operation. In slurping operation, the non-return valve closes more smoothly.
NOTICE
System malfunction through low delivery head!
If the delivery head is lower than 2 metres, the non-return valve does not close correctly. This lower counter pressure causes in a backflow of the fluid into the tank. This backflow results in a frequently switching on and off of the lifting unit, which can lead to a malfunction.
- Open shut-off valves in the inlet and the discharge pipe.
- Make sure that the maximum inflow is less than the maximum output of the system.
- Do not open inspection openings on the collection tank and the non-return valve.
- Make sure that the collection tank is sufficiently ventilated.
