7. Operating the product

The lifting station is designed to operate 
automatically according to the liquid level in the tank.
With a controller, you can easily change settings, 
monitor the system or perform fault finding. 
You can download the installation and operating 
instructions of the controller with the following links 
and QR codes.

7.1 Setting the start levels

The optimum start level is closely related to the 
chosen inlet height and pipe configuration. The start 
level must be as high as possible to increase the 
effective tank volume and reduce the number of 
start/stops of the pumps. A too high start level, 
however, may increase the backflow in the inlet pipe 
and thus increase the risk of deposits in the inlet 
pipe.
The figures below show the recommended start 
levels in relation to the inlet height and pipe 
configuration.
You can select all the values with LC 221. With LC 
220, you can select the lowest or highest value.
