4.4 Functions
4.4.1 Operating functions
Automatic operation of the main pump
Automatic operation is the normal operating
mode. For this mode, the selector switch for the
system must be set to “AUT”.
When the extinguishing water booster set is in automatic mode,
only the green “POWER SUPPLY” indicator light in the control
panel is on. All other alarm and status indicator lights should be
off.
As soon as the sprinklers are activated and water is consumed, the
pressure in the discharge pipe is reduced. If the pressure falls be-
low the cut-in pressure set on the corresponding pressure switch,
the main pump will start automatically. The “PUMP RUNNING” indi-
cator light will light up, and the AR3 digital output will be activated.
Furthermore, the “PUMP ON DEMAND” indicator light will light up,
and the AR2 digital output will be activated.
If the main pump set cannot start due to a fault, the yellow “START
FAILURE” indicator light will light up, and the AR5 digital output will
be activated. The alarm indication will be reset automatically, when
the fault has disappeared.
It is only possible to stop the main pump manually by setting the
selector switch to “0” and pressing [Stop].
For safety reasons, a redundant pressure switch should always
be connected in addition to the primary pressure switch.

.
Manual operation of the main pump
During start-up and for test purposes, the main pump can be
started manually by turning the selector switch for the main pump
to “TEST” and pressing [Start]. When [Start] is pressed, the start
relay is activated by bypassing the pressure switch in the discharge
line. The red “PUMP RUNNING” indicator light will light up, and the
AR3 digital output will be activated. In manual mode, the “PUMP
ON DEMAND” indicator light does not light up, and the AR2 digital
output will be deactivated. To switch off the pump press the [Stop]
button.
To restore automatic mode, the selector switch for the main pump
must be turned back to “AUT” position.

.
Pressure switch test
The pressure switch function for the main pump can be tested
by means of [P1] and [P2]. To do this, turn the selector switch to
“TEST” position. During the testing procedure, the corresponding
indicator light will light up alongside the respective button. See also

Indicator light test
It is possible to carry out an indicator light test. To test the function

.
Auto-
matic operation of the jockey pump
If there are some small leakages in the pipework or as soon as the
sprinklers are activated and water is consumed, the pressure in the
discharge pipe is decreasing. If the pressure falls below the cut-in
pressure set on the corresponding pressure switch, the jockey
pump will start automatically and the green “JOCKEY RUN” indica-
tor light will light up. The jockey pump should always start before
the main pump.
If the jockey pump set cannot start due to a fault, the red
“JOCKEY ALARM” indicator light will light up. The alarm
indication will be reset automatically, when the fault has
disappeared.
If the pressure in the discharge pipe reaches the cut-out pressure
again, the jockey pump stops. However, it is also possible to stop
the jockey pump manually by turning the selector switch for the
jockey pump to “0” position.
