10.  Troubleshooting 

For pumps with AC motor: 

 

DANGER 

  Extreme danger from electrical shock! 

  Disconnect the pump power supply before working 

on the pump. 

  Make sure the pump is de-energized and secure. 

 

For pumps with DC motor: 

  Disconnect the pump power supply before working on the 

pump. 

  Make sure the pump is de-energized and secure. 

Check the pump (see Tab. 14 and 15). 

Pump does not transfer 

Cause 

Fault remedy 

Thermal switch has operated 
following to over-heating. 

  Disconnect pump from mains. 

  Allow pump to cool. 

  Identify and eliminate cause of overheating. 

Connections or lines blocked. 

  Check connections and lines. 

  Remove blockage. 

External valve is closed or filter 
is clogged. 

  Check external valves and filters. 

Condensate has collected in 
pump head. 

  Install pump at highest point in system. 

Piston seal or valve plates are 
worn. 

  Replace piston seal and valve plates (see Chapter 8)
