Caution  

Caution  

Open the isolating valve on the discharge manifold. 2. 
Close the isolating valve on the discharge manifold. 
3. Turn the main switch to  “I” 

position.  

4. Open the ball valve for testing the pressure switches for the  

main pump and the jockey pump.  

10.2 Electrical connection 

Warning 
During electrical installation, make sure that the  

power supply cannot be accidentally switched  on.  

Check that the supply voltage and frequency correspond to the  
values stated on the nameplate. 

The electrical connection must be made in accordance with the  

wiring diagram in the control cabinet. 

Procedure 

• The connection to the mains supply must be fitted with a fuse  of 

the correct size, in accordance with local regulations, and  con-

nected to the main switch in the control cabinet. PE must  be 

connected using the PE terminal block. 

• Pressure switch 1 for the main pump must be connected to  termi-

nals 6 and 7 in the control cabinet, and pressure switch 2  for the 

main pump to terminals 8 and 9. 

• The pressure switch for the jockey pump must be connected to  

terminals 2 and 52 in the control cabinet. 

• The pressure switch for dry running protection of the jockey  pump 

must be connected to terminals 53 and 54 in the control  cabinet. 

If this pressure switch should not be used, put a  cable/bridge 

between terminal 53 and 54 

• The additional pressure switch for the “Pump running”  indication is 

to be connected to terminals 12 and 13. If no  additional pressure 

switch is used, put a cable/bridge between  terminal 12 and 13. 

• If there is a level switch for measuring the filling level in the  

priming tank, it must be connected to terminals 10 and 11. 

• If status and alarm indications are to be transmitted to a  building 

management system, terminals 31 to 40 must be used  for this 

purpose.

11. Commissioning 

Warning  

Start-up must be carried out by authorised  

personnel. The control cabinet of the controller  

must remain closed during start-up. Danger of  

death through electric shock!.  

The sprinkler pump is not allowed to run against  a 

closed valve as this may cause an  unacceptable 

temperature increase or the  formation of steam. 

This may cause damage to  the sprinkler pump.  

11.1 Preparations before start-up 

Before start-up the following have to be done: 
1. Check that all screw connections are fitted securely. 
2. Check that all pipes are installed correctly. 
3. Check that all electrical connections inside and outside the  

controller are correctly connected and fitted securely. 4. Check 

that all fuses in the control cabinet are switched on. 
5. Check that all safety devices are installed. 
6. Make sure that any storage tank and pump priming tank are  

filled with enough water. 

7. Set pressure values on the three pressure switches, see  pres-

sure switch operating manual. The value of the pressure  

switches for the main pump should be 0.5 bar higher than the  

value of the pressure switch for the jockey pump. 

11.2 Start-up  

Before switching on the extinguishing water  

booster set it must be filled with water. In case 

of dry running the main pump will not  stop.  

Step 

Illustration  

1. Open the isolating valve on the suction manifold. Open the 

isolating valve on the suction side of the main  pump. 

Open both isolating valves of the bypass line.
