11)
If the pump has a float switch, ensure it CANNOT get stuck
on the side of the tank or
under baffles or similar - warranty service does not cover this situation. FOR PUMPS WITH
FLOATS: The water level will need to be 0.6m to 1.2m high inside the tank, for the pump
to start.
12)
Isolation valves must be fitted (ball-valve or gate-valve) on Mains supply and discharge.
13)
A Barrel-Union must be fitted external of the tank to allow easy servicing of the pump,
install it after the elbow to avoid it twisting loose from the pump starting & stopping.
14)
It is the INSTALLERS responsibility to check the pumps operation prior to leaving the site
CHECK ALL CONNECTIONS: Ensure all fittings and joints are watertight and airtight. Leaks
will cause the pump to cycle on & off continuously, this is not a fault of the pump.
15)
All Electrical Wiring & Power Outlet & Cable protection must be in accordance with
applicable Australian Standards.
16)
IRRIGATION USE - MANDATORY REQUIREMENTS FOR ALL INSTALLATIONS:
For any
installation of pumps supplying irrigation, you must fit an 18L or larger pressure tank.
Set tank air pressure: RPS036 set air pressure to 250kPa, RPS050 set air pressure to 350kPa
17)
IMPORTANT NOTICE RE THE STOPPING FUNCTION:
In some situations the pump will cycle
a few times after each use. THIS IS NOT A WARRANTY FAULT,
it is a normal function of
the internal pump controller releasing excess pressure when there is some “bounce” or
“give” in the pipework or connected fixtures –
it is often caused by toilet cisterns or a
short discharge pipe or flex in pipes. It is not a fault with the pump. If the owner does not
want this to occur, install a 2L or larger Pressure Tank, set the tank air pressure: RPS036
set air pressure to 250kPa, RPS050 set air pressure to 350kPa.
18)
IF THE PUMP BLEEDS OUT OF THE TOP After startup, the pump may bleed water out of the
top of the pump
–
this is NOT a fault, it is the normal operation of the pump.
19)
Some air can be pumped when the tank is low in water
–
this is not a fault it is normal
operation.
