GETTING STARTED
Maintenance
The Watermaster IC control unit (located on the
back of the socket) is designed to be service free
and does not contain serviceable parts. Please
note that the unit is enclosed to protect the
electronics, opening the unit will result in damage,
and will invalidate warranty.
A planned maintenance schedule of regular
inspection is recommended, for the Watermaster
pump kit and socket replacing components as
necessary. Replacement components are available
in service kits from dealers.
For information on replacement parts and
service kits, please visit www.whalepumps.com.
Helpful Hints
Note
: If at any stage the user experiences less
than optimum performance from the Whale
Watermaster IC, recalibrate the system as per
steps outlined above.
To obtain efficient running and maximum pump
life, ensure the following:
•
There is sufficient water in the container.
•
Maximum pumping period is not more than
15 minutes.
•
All hose connections are firm and water tight
•
The power supply is adequate - low
performance could result from a weak
battery or reduced voltage due to
undersized wiring (we recommend wiring
should be a minimum thickness of 2.5mm
2
)
•
When replenishing the water supply, it is
possible to create an air lock in the pump. As
a result, the pump will run noisily and give no
discharge. To remedy, unplug from the socket
while keeping the pump submerged to
dislodge the air pocket in the pump. Also
shaking the dual hose gently may dislodge the
air pocket in the pump, or switch off pump at
main panel, open a tap outlet and switch
pump on again at the main panel.
Troubleshooting
(a) If the pump will not run:
•
Check at least one tap is open
•
Turn the pump isolation switch off and on again
•
Check the battery condition
•
Check the mains isolator switch is on
•
Check the pump isolator switch is on
•
Check the contacts in the plug and socket are clean and making contact
•
Check wiring connections
•
Check fuse (see fuse box)
(b) If the pump cylces on/off with all taps and shower closed:
•
Check for air or water leaks in taps and piping
•
Check that non return valve in socket is free from grit by pushing a suitable blunt object, for
example a ballpoint pen into the socket nipple against the non-return valve holding the valve
open to dislodge trapped grit.
•
Recalibrate the system (see calibration section of the installation section)
(c) If pump motor runs steadily and does not stop after 30-40 seconds:
•
Check all connections in pipework
•
Recalibrate the system
