12. Fault finding

Warning

Before starting work on the pump/PM Rain, make sure that the power supply has been 
switched off and that it cannot be accidentally switched on.

Fault

Cause

Remedy

1.

The pump runs 
continuously.

a)

Air lock in the system.

Release air from the system. 
Open valves (taps, flush toilets, operate 
washing machine) from nearest to 
furthest outlet. Repeat, if necessary.

b)

The pump cable plug is inserted 
directly into the power supply socket.

Insert the pump cable plug into the 
PM Rain and the PM Rain plug into the 
power supply socket.

c)

Water is still being used. 

Check all taps, toilets, and appliances 
connected to the PM Rain to ensure that 
they are turned off. If the pump does not 
stop, switch off the pump, and check the 
discharge pipe for leaks.

d)

Water is leaking on the discharge side. Check for leaks.

e)

The start pressure is set too high.

Decrease the start pressure.
See section 5.1 DIP switches.

f)

The non-return valve is stuck in open 
position.

Clean or replace the valve.

g)

The PM Rain is defective.

Repair or replace the PM Rain.

2.

The green "Pump 
on" indicator light is 
on, but the pump 
does not start.

a)

The power supply to the pump is 
disconnected after the PM Rain.

Check the plug and cable connections.

b)

The motor protection of the pump has 
tripped due to overload.

Check if the pump is blocked.

c)

The pump is defective.

Repair or replace the pump.

d)

The PM Rain is defective.

Repair or replace the PM Rain.

3.

The pump does not 
start when water is 
consumed. "Pump 
on" is off.

a)

Too big difference in height between 
the PM Rain and the tapping point.

Adjust the installation, or increase the 
start pressure.
See section 5.1 DIP switches.

b)

The PM Rain is defective.

Repair or replace the PM Rain.

c)

The pump cable plug is not inserted 
into the PM Rain.

Check the plug and cable connections.

d)

No power supply. No light in Rain 
water or Mains water indicator lights.

Contact an electrician, or restore the 
power supply.

4.

Frequent starts and 
stops.

a)

DIP switch 5 set to "ON".
Note: For system without pressure 
tank.

Set DIP switch 5 to "OFF".
See section 5.1 DIP switches.

b)

Leakage in the pipework.

Check and repair the pipework.

c)

The non-return valve is stuck in open 
position.

Clean or replace the non-return valve.

d)

The pressure tank has no precharge 
pressure, or the tank size is 
insufficient. 
Note: For system with pressure tank.

Check the tank precharge pressure, and 
recharge the tank, if necessary.
If the size of the pressure tank is 
insufficient, set DIP switch 5 to "OFF", or 
replace the pressure tank.

5.

The pump does not 
stop.

a)

The pump cannot deliver the 
necessary discharge pressure.

Replace the pump.

b)

The start pressure is set too high.

Decrease the start pressure.

c)

The PM Rain is defective.

Repair or replace the PM Rain.

d)

The non-return valve is stuck in open 
position.

Clean or replace the non-return valve.
