Filling the Water Tank
ATTENTION !
Before filling the water tank, the drain valve must be closed!
The maximum tank filling pressure must not be more than 5-7 bar.
In case of higher pressure, decrease the supply pressure accord-
ingly.
When the water tank is overfilled (by overriding the automatic
water tank levelling system*), reduce the water flow to maximum
2000 l/min.
Completely filling the tank (overfilling) with too much pressure
may cause damages at a later stage.
It is strictly prohibited to make any modifications or adjustments
on the tank filling lines (screens), overflows and manholes (spring
-pretension).
Before connecting the supply hoses to the hydrant, allow water
discharge until clear water flows out of the hydrant.
Filling the Water Tank via Tank Supply Lines
- Connect supply hoses to the left and/or right connections (J30).
- Open hydrant valve slowly.
- Open left and/or right tank fill valve(s) (J29).
- Observe water tank level gauge (P1).
◊
The pilot lamp (H11) illuminates as long as the water tank
content is less than one third.
- When the water tank is full, close fill valve(s) (J29).
Uncoupling the supply hoses:
- Close the hydrant valve.
- Release pressure by opening the tank fill valve(s) (J29).
- Uncouple the supply hoses and secure the fill connection with
its blind coupling.
