Assembly
Fit the two fastening strips underneath the motor body and attach all four suction
feet. Place the pump on the desired position and press it lightly to secure it. The 4
suction feet also serve as vibration dampers.
The pump can be used in or out of water. The pump does not automatically take in
water. Therefore, it must be placed below the level of the water surface if it is used
out of water.
A
Screw diffuser hand-tight onto connector (suction side). Connect air hose to
diffuser. Plug air control valve onto end of hose. If required, mount the hose
connector to the diffuser and to the connector (pressure side) and screw hand-
tight. Plug hose on and secure with hose clips. Connect the saltwater pump to
the tube or hose system for the protein skimmer.
Caution:
Follow the installation instructions issued by the protein simmer man-
ufacturer.
Caution:
Check all pipe and hose connections for leaks. The air control valve
has to be at least 10 cm above the water level in the protein skimmer (see
drawing
B
), as otherwise there would be a
risk of overflow
.
Start-up
Plug in the mains plug to start the pump.
Turn the control knop from min. (
–
) to max. (
+
) to adjust the flow quantity as re-
quired (see drawing
A
).
Maintenance and care
Disconnect the pump from the mains supply. Disonnect the pump from the tube or
hose system for the protein skimmer. Using a screwdriver unscrew the four screws
and remove the pump housing towards the front (
C
). Remove the complete needle
wheel unit (
D
). Thoroughly wash all the pump parts and clean them with the
EHEIM
brush set (Art. No. 4009560). Check all the seals for any soiling and a correct fit.
Renew the sealing ring if it is damaged. Finally, reassemble all the parts in the re-
verse sequence (
E
).
Note:
We recommend replacing the seals after approx three years.
