4.4.3 Air release valve

If not available, install an air release valve in the 
priming port of non-submersible pumps. The valve is 
factory-fitted to Grundfos JP pumps.

Vent the system by turning the plug on the air outlet 
counter-clockwise by one complete turn from the 
fully closed position. Air is automatically vented if the 
cap is kept in this position.

4.5 Electrical installation

Carry out the electrical connection according to local 
regulations.

The PM Rain unit has a male plug for power supply 
and a female socket for pump supply.

4.6 Connecting units with cable and plug 

fitted 

1. Connect the pump to the female socket of the 

PM Rain.

2. Connect the male plug of the PM Rain to the 

power supply.

4.7 Alternative power supply 

The PM Rain can be powered by a generator or 
other alternative power supplies, provided that the 
requirements for the power supply are fulfilled. 
See section 11. Technical data.

Warning 

During electrical installation, make sure 
that the power supply cannot be 
accidentally switched on.

The unit must be connected to an 
external mains switch with a minimum 
contact gap of 3 mm in all poles.

As a precaution, the unit must be 
connected to a socket with earth 
connection.

We recommend you to fit the 
permanent installation with an earth 
leakage circuit breaker (ELCB) with a 
tripping current < 30 mA.
