Control panel

8.2 Display

The display (1) is on when you have switched on 
the power supply.
The display shows the actual pump power 
consumption in watt (integer) or the actual flow 
during operation.
If a fault is indicated, correct the fault and reset 
the pump by switching the power supply off and 
on.
If the pump impeller is rotated, for example 
when filling the pump with water, sufficient 
energy can be generated to light up the display 
even if the power supply has been switched off.

Light field indicating high and low flow

The light field blinks for low flow

– If the flow is lower than 1 gpm, the light 

field alternately flashes between "0" and 
"1" randomly.

The light field shows HI for high flow

– If the flow is higher than 12 gpm, the light 

field shows "HI" on user interface. 

8.2.1 Light fields indicating the pump setting

The pump has optional performance settings 
which you can select with the push-button. See 
fig.

The pump setting is indicated by light fields in 
the display. See fig.

8.3 Setting the pump

You can change the pump setting by pressing 
the push-button.

8.3.1 Factory default setting

The pump's factory default setting is the 
AUTO

ADAPT

 setting.

8.3.2 Changing from recommended to 

alternative pump setting

Heating systems are "slow" systems that cannot 
be set to the optimum operation within minutes 
or hours.
However, if the recommended pump setting in 
some applications does not give the desired 
distribution of heat in the rooms of the house, 
you can change to an alternative pump setting.
