If the battery voltage is very low (8.5V-9.5V), the Watermaster® IC is designed to shut down after
approximately 30 seconds operation to prevent the battery being drained further. Restart the system by
turning the pump isolation switch off and back on. This can be repeated to provide a limited operating mode
but the battery should be recharged as soon as possible.
Please note that Watermaster® IC is designed to work with the Whale® Pressure Switched Socket
ES1001 / ES5001, and with the Whale® High Flow Watermaster® pump kit ONLY, and is not compatible with
other sockets or pump systems
For users with other Whale® or non-Whale® products, their systems may be upgraded to IC by purchase of the
Whale product codes - socket ES1001 / ES5001 and Pump & Watermaster® IC (EP1632).
Contact the technical helpline (Whale® 02891 270531) for additional advice on this product or its installation.
