11.1  Pre-filter with back wash 

 
The pre-filter should be checked every 3 months, and cleaned if necessary. The auto-clean interval can 
then be extended depending on the build-up of contaminants. 
The integrated non-return valve (PR100-M) must be checked twice a year and cleaned of any deposits. 
 
 

11.2  Filtration and backwash pump 

 
It is recommended that a function test of the pumps is carried out every six months. Each pump is started 
in the test menu. (Can be also used to check the flow.) 
In the case where one pump should fail, the complete double pump unit should be replaced.  
It is suggested that the filtration and backwash pump set be replaced after 20,000 hrs running time. 
 

 

 

 
 
 
 

11.3  Float Switch / Level Sensor  

 
It is recommended that a function test of the float switch is carried out every six months. The float switch 
is tested by manually positioning it into the two switch positions (Empty=lower position /Full=upper 
position) while the display is checked.
