Pump Tests
Running Test
Note: Valves, hoses and connectors may vary with customer specification.
To ensure the pump is kept in good condition and keep the battery charged, it is
recommended that the pump should be run once a month for 30 minutes.
1. Connect the pump to suction at a depth of between 1 metre and 3 metres.
2. Start and run the engine.
3. Prime the pump.
4. Open the delivery valve.
5. Run the pump at a pressure of 3 bar for approximately 30 minutes.
6. Stop the pump and drain volute.
Vacuum Test - Exhaust Gas Priming
Secure the suction tube blanking cap, close the delivery valve and open the manual
priming valve.
Start the engine, fully open the throttle and pull up the priming lever.
With a vacuum reading of 0.6 bar (18“hg) registering on the compound gauge, release
the priming lever and stop the engine. The vacuum reading must be maintained for a
minimum of 15 seconds. If vacuum retention fails, proceed to a pressure test to identify
the cause.
Should the pump be incapable of developing a vacuum of 0.6 bar, but hold whatever
vacuum it does develop, a fault in the priming system or gauge is indicated.
NOTE: Do not run the pump for more than 30 seconds when conducting this test or
damage may occur to the pump gland seal components.
Pressure Test
The purpose of this test is to trace a vacuum leak.
With the priming valve CLOSED, connect the pump to a water supply capable of
exerting a pressure of 3.5 / 7.0 bar (50 / 100 lbf / in
2
). This may be achieved either by
fitting an adaptor in the pump casing and then connecting this to a hose, or by using a
hydrant to suction tube adaptor.
To allow air to escape, partially open the delivery valve and apply water pressure. With
the pump casing full of water, close the delivery valve and build up the pressure to 3.5 /
7.0 bar (50 / 100 lbf / in
2
). If there are any leaks, their locations will be shown by the
seepage of water at those points.
Battery Care
Safety
The absorbent glass material (AGM) battery is a sealed unit and requires no fluid top
up during its life.
