Optimising the flow rate
The flow rate is further increased:
● The lower the delivery height is.
● The greater the diameter of the hose used is.
● The shorter the hose used is.
● The smaller the pressure loss caused by the con-
nected up accessories.
The pump does not start
or stops during opera-
tion The power supply is disconnected. 1. Check the fuses and the electrical connec-
tions.
The thermal protection switch has
switched off the pump because of over-
heating. 1. Pull the mains plug out of the socket.
2. Allow the pump to cool down.
3. Clean the suction area.
4. Prevent the pump from running dry.
Dirt particles are trapped in the suction
area. 1. Pull the mains plug out of the socket.
2. Clean the suction area.
The float switch switches the pump off. 1. Automatic mode: Check the position and
free movement of the float switch and cor-
rect if necessary, see chapter
Automatic
mode .
2. Manual operation: Attach the float switch
correctly, see chapter Manual operation .
The pump capacity drops
or is too low The suction area is clogged. 1. Pull the mains plug out of the mains socket
and clean the suction area.
The delivery rate of the pump depends
on the delivery head and the connected
periphery. 1. Observe the maximum delivery height, see
chapter Technical data . If necessary, se-
lect a larger hose diameter or shorter hose
length.
The cross-section on the pressure side is
narrowed, e.g. due to the valve/ball tap
not being fully open. 1. Fully open the valve / ball tap.
The pressure side hose is kinked. 1. Eliminate the kink points in the hose.
Quick-Connect cannot
be opened The Quick-Connect plug system is
blocked by contamination. 1. Remove the clip and clean it.
