Initial Start Up and Priming:
1. Ensure that the pump is fully primed by removing the priming plug and filling the pump with water.
Warning! Initial operation of the pump without water may cause damage.
2. Ensure pump is correctly wired. Make sure the red pump wire is connected to DC (+).
3. Make sure that faucets are open and downstream filters are bypassed or removed on the discharge piping
of the X-Caliber so that it can expel the air during the priming operation.
4. Apply 12VDC or 24VDC to the pump.
5. The X-Caliber will begin its priming operation. The default power setting on initial start up is 300 Watt. The
default cut in pressure setting is the lowest pressure, 29 psi (2 bar).
6. Priming Mode: The pump will perform the following operation until it is primed. While in the ”Priming Mode”
the blue “Status” led will be on continuously.
a. First trial run for 2 minutes.
b. Pause for 15 sec.
c.
Second trial run for 90 seconds.
d. Pause for 20 seconds.
e. Third trial run of 90 seconds.
f.
Pause of 20 seconds.
g. Fourth trial of 90 seconds.
h. Pause of 20 seconds.
i.
Fifth trial of 90 seconds.
If the pump is still not primed after 5 trials, it will go into alarm.
7. Once the pump has picked up a prime, allow it to run for 1 minute at maximum flow in order to ensure all
air has been expelled from the suction piping.
8. Close off faucets to allow pump to build up maximum pressure and turn off by its self.
9. Pump is primed.
Accumulator Tanks:
The X-Caliber water pump can be used with or with out a pressure accumulator tank. If there are low flow devices
such as icemakers, reverse osmosis water filters, and or small leaks in the system, Headhunter recommends the
installation of a small pressure accumulator tank such as a Headhunter model# PT-102.
Water Filters:
The X-Caliber water pump can be used in conjunction with a charcoal or sediment water filter installed on the
pressure delivery system. The water filter should be sized for minimal pressure drop at the maximum flow rate
capable by the pump. Do not install a charcoal or sediment type water filter on the suction piping of the
pump. It will restrict the flow of water to the pump. Headhunter recommends the installation of a by-pass on water
filter installations to make priming easier.
