MAINTENANCE
WARNING! Always unplug the pump before performing any maintenance work on
it.
-
Clean the suction strainer and non-return valve regularly.
-
Check pressure switch operation regularly (upper limit/lower limit).
-
Protect the unit from frost during storage and operation.
-
Inside the pressure tank is a pressure membrane and air tank where the pressure should
be approximately 1,3 bar checked when line pressure is 0. If air pressure does not stay in
the tank, the membrane is broken. Check membrane operation regularly (see chapter
”Operation”).
-
If the pressure in the air tank is too low, increase it by unscrewing the plastic lid at the
end of the tank and pump air in the valve with a tyre filler.
