ELECTRIC CONNECTION (fig.2)
Check the power supply to be 115 V ± 10% or
230 V ± 10% IDROMAT 5 and IDROMAT 6 (230V
for IDROMAT 5e), remove the cover 1 of the electro-
nic circuit and make the connection as per diagram
on plate fig. 2. The IDROMAT can also be used for
thee-phase or single-phase pumps with rated current
higher than 8 A (16A for IDROMAT 6) by means of an
auxiliary contact. In this case connections are to be
made according to scheme in fig. 3,4.
WARNING
Bad connections may spoil the electronic circuit.
STARTING
1. Be sure that the pump is correctly primed,
then gently open one tap.
2. Connect the IDROMAT to the electric supply,
the voltage LED will lit (POWER
).
3. The pump starts working automatically and
within a period of 20-25 seconds the pressu-
re gauge will reach approximately the maxi-
mum pressure provided by the pump. During
the operation the corresponding LED (ON
) will be on. If the pump does not start or
does not read the pressure, reset the system
by pushing the button RESET
.
4. Close the tap indicated on point 1;after 8-10
seconds the pump will stop. The tension LED
(POWER
) will be the only one to remain
on. Any problem after this procedure will be
due to a defective pump priming.
Setting the restart pressure values (IDROMAT 5e)
The device is factory calibrated to 1,5 bar, to change
the value keep the Set button
pressed in for 3
seconds once or more times.
The green LED will light up next to the value selec-
ted.
The pump stops if the pressure generated by the
same fails to reach the values indicated above.
The pump starts but without restarting if the height of
the water column exceeds the values indicated
above.
AUTOMATIC RESTART AND ANTI-JAMMING
FUNCTION
In case of stopping due to an water shortage, the
device will automatically make 10 double attempts to
rearm over the 24 hours following the failure, each
lasting approximately 5 seconds to allow the pump
and the system to reload if possible.
After the last failed rearming attempt, the device will
remain permanently in alarm (red FAILURE
LED
blinking) pending manual rearming by pressing the
(RESET
) button.
The user can always try to rearm the device at any
time by pressing the (RESET
) button.
If for any reason the pump remains idle for 24 conse-
cutive hours, the device will carry out a start up of the
pump motor for about 5 seconds (anti-jamming func-
tion).
In case of a temporary blackout, the device will auto-
matically rearm once the electricity returns.
POSSIBLE PROBLEMS
The pump does not stop
a) Water leakage more than 1 l/min at some points of
the pipe, check the installation, taps, WC, etc.
b) Manual start switch (RESET
) is blocked: act on
it several times, in case the problem persists con-
tact your dealer.
c) Breakdown on the electronic card: proceed with its
replacement.
d) Incorrect electric connection: verify the connec-
tions according to fig.2,3,4.
The pump does not start
a) Not enough water supply, the security system has
been activated and the LED (FAILURE
) is on:
check the water supply and reset the pump throu-
gh the reset switch (RESET
).
b) Pump is blocked: LED (FAILURE
) is on, the
security system is activated. When you act on the
manual start switch (RESET
) the LED (ON
)
is activated but the pump does not work: contact
your dealer.
c) Failure in the electronic circuit: switch off the
power supply, wait for few seconds and turn it on
again. If the pump does not start immediately then
replace the circuit.
d) No electrical supply: check the proper electric fee-
ding. The tension LED (POWER
) should be on.
e) Not enough pump pressure: the security system
has been activated and the corresponding LED
(FAILURE
) is on. Check that the pump pressu-
re is higher than the starting pressure of the
IDROMAT.
f) Air in the pump suction: the pressure gauge will
indicate a pressure lower than the nominal one or
constant oscillations. The security system will act
by stopping the pump, the LED (FAILURE) will be
on. Check the sealing of the connections and O-
ring of the suction pipe.
The pump starts and stops repeatedly
Small leakage in some point of the installation: verify
possible tap or WC tank leaks and repair them.
Changes reserved.
