5 COMMISSIONING
5.11 The pump chamber must be full of water at all times. Damage will result if pump
runs
dry.
5.12 The pump must be fully submerged before starting. Take care when submerging
the pump to ensure all air is purged from the casing. This is done by slowly
submerging the pump and gently agitating whilst doing so. This will enable any
trapped air pockets to be released.
5.13 Turn on the electrical supply and water movement should be immediately evident
from pump outlet. If it is not, repeat step 5.12.

Phone the Stuart Turner PumpAssist team on
+44 (0) 844 98 000 97. Our staff are trained to help and advise you over the
phone.
Note: When pumps are installed in another manufacturers original equipment,
please contact the manufacturer for advice.
If an extension cord is necessary a cord of the proper type and rating must be
used.
In general for 230 volt pumps on distances up to 40 metres (inclusive of original
cord length) the same specification cord as fitted to the pump can be used.
For distances above 40 metres a larger cord size may be required due to voltage
drop and advice must be obtained based upon installation details.
Any connectors or junction boxes must be specifically suited for outdoor use
and installed in accordance with manufacturers instructions.
Any cable routed underground must be protected to local standards.
