Automatic Filling Using External Water Tank and Auxiliary Pump
When connecting your STATCLAVE to an automatic filling system such as an external water tank and
auxiliary pump, make sure your unit is set to the AUTOMATIC filling mode. (See Setting the water
reservoir filling mode in Section 4.)
An input hose can be connected to the STATCLAVE
from an external tank that uses an automatic water
pump to feed the internal tank automatically when it
reaches the MIN level. Be sure to monitor the water
level of your external tank. The STATCLAVE unit
does not monitor the water level in the external tank
and the auxiliary water pump should not run dry.
To use this method, you will need the STATCLAVE
automatic fill pump (sold as an accessory) and an
external tank with a minimum diameter opening of
2” (50mm) through which you can insert the pump.
To connect the automatic fill pump to the STATCLAVE, follow these steps:
1.
Remove the plug from the automatic fill port
(A) at the back of the unit.
2.
Connect the fitting at the end of the pump’s
tubing to the automatic fill port (A).
3.
Connect the automatic fill pump’s power
source to the power connection (B) located at
the back of the unit.
4.
Fill the external tank with distilled water.
5.
Place the submersible automatic fill pump (C)
in the external tank.
6.
Go to the home screen and select any cycle to
activate the filling system.
