11 Troubleshooting
Properly installed, operated and maintained pumping chambers will give many years of trouble free service.
All pumping chambers are fitted with an alarm, which will alert of irregularities in the pumping chamber. If a
pump stops working a buzzer will sound to indicate there is a problem with the pumping chamber. The buzzer
can be muted until the problem is fixed. Once fixed, the alarm will reset automatically and the mute switch
must be reset manually. All electrical work shall be carried out by a certified electrician.
