Davey RainBank KRB1, Installation Instructions Manual

11

Things you should be aware of:

•   Before installing RainBank please
  read all instructions carefully as
  failures caused by incorrect
  installation are not covered under
 warranty. 

•  RainBank is designed to handle
  clean water and should not be used
  for any other purpose without specific
  referral to Davey. The use of
  RainBank to pump flammable,
  corrosive or other materials of a
  hazardous nature will damage the
  system and void the warranty.

•  The pumping of abrasive materials
  will damage the system and void the
 warranty.

•  Water freezing inside the RainBank 

will damage the unit. Locate your 
RainBank and pump so that they are 
not susceptible to freezing.

•  Some insects such as small ants find
  electrical devices attractive for
  various reasons. If your controller  

or pump is susceptible to insect

  infestation you should implement  

a suitable pest control plan.

• 

Limit mains water pressure to 

600kPa.

•   An inline ‘Y’ strainer between the 

pump and the RainBank controller is

  recommended to stop foreign matter
  entering the unit and damaging it.

•  All pipe work and fittings should be
  labelled in accordance with local 

standards such as Australian 

  Standard AS/NZS 3500.1. This 

standard requires that all pipework 
containing rainwater is marked with 
green ‘rainwater’ tape or stickers at  
1 meter intervals and every outlet  
that may deliver rainwater is to be

  permanently signed with ‘Rain Water’ 

signage or a green tap marked ‘RW’.

•  Ensure all wiring, plumbing and the 

RainBank unit are protected from 
access by pets and/or children.

•  Mains electrical connections and 

checks must be made by a qualified 
electrician and comply with applicable 
local standards. The 5 volt float lead 
connections need not be carried out 
by a qualified electrician, but should 
be done in compliance with applicable 
standards.

•  In accordance with AS/NZS 

60335.2.41 we are obliged to inform 
you that this controller and any pump 
controlled by it is not to be used by 
children or infirm persons and must 
not be used as a toy by children.
