Automatic Fill using an EXTERNAL WATER TANK AND AUXILIARY PUMP.
When connecting your STAT
IM
B to an automatic filling system such as an external water tank and auxiliary
pump, make sure your unit is set to the AUTOMATIC filling mode (see section above on setting the water
reservoir filling mode.)
An input hose can be connected to the STAT
IM
B from an external tank that uses an automatic water pump
to feed the internal reservoir automatically when it reaches the minimum level. Be sure to monitor the water
level of your external tank. The STAT
IM
B does not monitor the water level in the external tank and the
auxiliary water pump should not run dry.
To use this method, you will need the automatic fill pump (sold as an accessory) and an external tank with a
minimum diameter opening of 50mm (2”) through which you can insert the pump.
To connect the automatic fill pump to the STAT
IM
B, follow these steps:
1.
Connect the fitting at the end of the pump’s
tubing to the automatic fill port.
2.
Connect the automatic fill pump’s power
source to the 5V DC power connection
located at the back of the unit.
3.
Fill the external tank with distilled water.
4.
Place the submersible automatic fill pump in
the external tank.
5.
Go to the home screen and select any cycle to
activate the filling system.
IMPORTANT!
When selecting an automatic
filling option, it is best to use a direct-to-
drain waste connection. Use of an external
waste bottle will require careful monitoring
and frequent emptying.
