and/or change the solar pump kit.

herefore, please keep to the operating manual.

T
The accident prevention rules of the association of the industrial trade cooperative

ssociation for electric plants and working material are to be considered in industrial

a
environments

3. Appropriate Use

The pumping system is designed for the outdoor use in garden ponds. The accu-

­mulator storage is charged during sunshine. The solar pump may be switched
“on” and “off” via a switch. An LED-display informs you about the charge condi­tion of the accumulator.

- Direct solar radiation is required for the correct function.

- The pumping system is characterized by its easy assembly. Tools are not requi­red for the assembly.

- The pump must not be used for the raising of drinking water.

- The performance may be adjusted via a controller on the pump.

- In order to avoid any disturbing gurgling, simply attach fewer standpipes to the
pump.

- In order to safely interrupt the pumping it is required to interrupt the cable connec­tion between solar module and pump.

4. Assembly/installation and start of operation

For the details of assembly/installation and start of operation, please see the instruc­tion manuals of the accumulator box and the pond pump.

5. Service and Maintenance

In order to preserve the performance of the pump, it is required to wash out the pump
and its parts with warm water depending on the pollution of the water.

For directions for the service and maintenance of the pump and accumulator storage,
please see the instruction of the pump and accumulator storage.

Occasionally wipe the solar module clean with a soft and slightly moistened cloth.

Note: Before carrying out operations on the pump, interrupt the plug connection bet­ween pump and battery pack in order to avoid any unintentional starting during the
operations.

- We exclude liability for property or
personal damages caused by inappropriate
handling or not following the safety instructions.
In these cases any guarantee rights will expire.

3. Intended use

This submersible pump is designed for pumping water in garden ponds, fountains,
water dishes, etc. It can pump water through a hose connection or can be operated
through attached lifting tubes with water sprinklers.
A solar module or a power pack with a voltage of 12 to 24 volts can be used as the
energy source. When used with a solar module, the pump works only if enough
solar radiation strikes the solar module.
A battery box (accessory) is delivered along with this pump. When battery is on, an
LED light (accessory) can be attached to the lifting tube. This gives the fountain a
decorative lighting. The LED light rings are available in different colours.
The delivery rate of the pump can be adjusted using the regulator on the front side
of the pump. The water pump has no On/Off switch. As soon as the pump is con­nected to its power supply, it starts pumping water.

5. Dry run protection

The pump is equipped as standard with a dry run protec-

ion. Two sensor points are provided on the side of the

t

ousing for this. The pump works if these points are

h
under water. If a point projects out of the water, the pump
does not work.

6. Care and maintenance

For optimum performance of the pump, it must be washed occasionally with warm
water depending on the water contamination. To wash the pump, open the housing
as follows:

Note: Please do not use force while dismantling or assembling the pump. The parts
are very fragile and can break easily.

. Disconnect the pumpʼs plug.

1

2. Pull the front cover of the pump forward like a slide gently (Figure 1).
. Turn the front cover of the pump by about 45° clockwise (Figure 1) and carefully

3

pull the cover forward (Figure 2). Watch out for the plastic shaft and the seal while

oing this.

d

4. Carefully drag the impeller out of the pump (if necessary, use pliers). (Figure 3).

5. Now clean all the parts carefully with warm water.
. Then plug the shaft with the impeller carefully into the hole of the pump. Ensure

6

that the shaft is fitted firmly.

7. Now place the cover carefully over the pump. Ensure that the seal is fitted proper-

ly.

8. Turn the front cover again by 45 degrees counter-clockwise into the starting posi-

tion.

9. Slide the lower part of the pump completely into the pump housing.

The pump is ready to use again.

4. Installation and commissioning

1. Roll out the connecting cable of the
pump completely.

2. Ensure that the cap is firmly in place on
the socket.

3. Place the pump in water (please note
Point 5 here).

4. Connect the lifting tubes till they project
out of the water surface. For this, first
attach the reducer to the pump.

5. You can now choose from 2 different
water nozzles.

6. Alternatively, the pump can also be used
for pumping water through a hose. For
this, you just have to attach a hose to the
pumpʼs pipe.

7. Now supply power to the water pump
through a solar module. Use the enclo­sed plug with cable (red = positive pole,
black = negative pole) for this. If you
have purchased this pump as a complete
solar power system, then the appropriate
plug is already attached to the solar module.

Note: The plug has reverse-polarity protection, no force should be used while inser­ting. The glass of the solar module is fragile.
Caution! Risk of injury! A broken module cannot be repaired again and must be dis­posed off in an environmental-friendly way.

8. If the pumping capacity is too high, you can reduce the amount of water. Simply
turn the regulator on the front side of the pump in clockwise direction. Please
do not use force while adjusting. The adjustment range is 45°.

7. Malfunction

Pump is not pumping water

- Is the pump completely submerged in water? Dry run protection (Point 5)

- Is the polarity of the supply voltage reversed? Cable colour brown = + pole,
blue = negative pole

- Is the pump dirty? Cleaning the pump, see Point 6.

8. Technical data

Operating voltage: 12 - 24 V DC
Degree of protection: IP 68
Power consumption: Approx. 5 W at 12 VDC - approx. 22 W at 24 VDC
Pump lift: Max. 0.9 m at 12 VDC - max. 2,8 m at 24 VDC
