INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION AND USE
Important Safety Information - Please Read Carefully
Caution: Do not use any power supply other than the one
supplied with your genuine Reef Tide pump.
The use of a different power supply will invalidate the guarantee.
• Always isolate the PSU from the mains electricity before installing
or carrying out any maintenance to the pump.
Caution:
The Reef Tide s
Controller is not waterproof and therefore must not be mounted above
the aquarium or sump, or in any position where it may accidentally fall
into water or be splashed by water, or in a humid environment.
• Only use the correctly-rated controller supplied with the pump,
e.g the Reef Tide s 6000 Controller with the Reef Tide s 6000 Pump.
A label on the back of the controller denotes which pump it is
designed for.
Using the wrong controller with the wrong
pump will invalidate the guarantee.
• Power to the pump must be supplied through a Residual Current Device
(RCD) with a rated residual operating current not exceeding 30mA.
• Never operate the pump without water inside the impeller chamber
or with liquids at a temperature higher than 95oF/35oC.
• To ensure the pump continues to maintain a steady water flow,
it must be cleaned regularly to ensure it does not become clogged
with debris or detritus.
• Pump rating: 100-240V, 50/60Hz unless marked otherwise.
• Do not operate any appliance if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it
is malfunctioning, or if it has been dropped or damaged in any way.
• This unit is designed to be used indoors and is not suitable for
any outdoor applications.
• Ensure the Reef Tide s pump is securely installed before operating.
• Always leave a drip-loop in the pump cable to prevent water
running down the cable and reaching the controller and power source
(see diagram below).
• Dispose of this unit responsibly. Check with your local authority
for disposal information.
