3.1 Applications
Caution
Note
English (GB)
Grundfos Multilift MOG and MDG lifting stations are designed for
the collection and pumping of domestic wastewater with no free
flow to sewer level. The grinder systems allows the use of small 1
1/4" or 1 1/2" outlet pipes which are ideal for long distances and
high-head applications. The Grundfos Multilift MOG and MDG
lifting stations are designed for the collection and pumping of the
following liquids:
• domestic wastewater, including grey wastewater without
faeces, black wastewater with faeces (discharge from water
closets).
The lifting stations are capable of pumping liquids containing
fibres, textiles, faeces, etc., below sewer level from single-family
houses (MOG) or multi-family houses, offices, schools, hotels,
restaurants, public areas and other commercial buildings (MDG).
Do not pump rainwater with the Multilift MOG and MDG lifting
stations for these two reasons:
• The motors of the lifting stations are not designed for
continuous operation which may be necessary in case of
heavy rainfall.
• Rainwater must not be discharged into a lifting station inside a
building according to EN 12056-4.
If in doubt, please contact Grundfos for advice.
Do not discharge the following substances/types of wastewater
via a lifting station:
• solid matter, tar, high content of sand, cement, ash, cardboard,
debris, garbage etc.
• wastewater from sanitary installations situated above the flood
level (this should be drained away via a free-flow drainage
system according to EN 12056-1).
• wastewater containing hazardous substances such as greasy
wastewater from large-scale catering establishments. For
drainage of greasy wastewater, use a grease separator
according to EN 1825-2 between a canteen or commercial
kitchen and the Multilift MDG.
Abrasive particles (e.g. high content of sand) in the
pumped liquid will reduce the life of the pump and
especially the grinder system.
4. Transportation and storage
Warning
The motor lifting bracket is only intended for lifting
the pump. Never lift or lower the lifting station by
means of the lifting bracket.
Lift the lifting station by the collecting tank.
For long periods of storage, the LC 221 controller must be
protected against moisture and heat.
After a long period of storage, the pumps should be inspected
before they are started up again. Make sure that the impellers
can rotate freely.

Setting to the relevant start inlet level must be made during
startup phase via the setup menu. See section 6.2 Setup menu.
The first step after power supply connection is a startup phase
with level setting.
To minimise sedimentation, the tank bottom is chamfered to lead
the wastewater to the pump.
5.1.2 Pump
The pump has a grinder which grinds solid particles into small
pieces so that they can easily flow through pipes of a small
diameter.

The stator housing of the motor is made of cast iron with a 150
µm epoxy coating. The pump has a mechanical shaft seal. See
more technical data in section 12. Technical data.
Single-phase motors are protected by a thermal switch in the
windings and run via starting and operation capacitors inside the
controller cabinet.
Three-phase motors are protected by a thermal switch in the
windings and an additional thermal circuit breaker in the cabinet
to cut out the motor in case of overload.
If the phase sequence for three-phase pumps is wrong, the
controller will indicate fault and prevent the pump(s) from starting.
For correction of phase sequence, see fig. 17.
Multilift MDG lifting stations have two pumps, thus
providing a standby pump in case of pump failure or
additional pump performance if the inlet exceeds the
performance of one pump.
Always install Multilift MDG lifting stations if the
wastewater flow must not be interrupted. For grinder
system, see section 5.1.5 Grinder system.

5.1.1 Collecting tank
The gas-, odour- and pressure-tight collecting tank is made of
wastewater resistant polyethylene (PE) and has all necessary
ports for the connection of inlet pipes, outlet pipe, vent pipe and a
manually operated diaphragm pump, which is available as an
accessory.
The collecting tank has a turnable, eccentric disk in the back
allowing adjustment of the inlet to any height between 180 and
315 mm above the floor. The most common heights are marked
beside the inlet. See section 7.3 Procedure for installation of
lifting station.
Furthermore, the collecting tank offers four horizontal inlets in the
sides (2 x DN 100 and 2 x DN 50) and two vertical inlets at the top
of the tank (1 x DN 150 and 1 x DN 50). The centres of the
horizontal inlets are 115 mm (DN 50) and 250 mm (DN 150)
above the floor.
The side and back inlets 180 and 250 mm above the floor are for
direct connection to wall-hung or floor-standing toilet according to
EN 33 and EN 37. Further sanitary appliances can be connected
to the other ports.
5.1.3 Shaft seal
The grinder pump incorporates two shaft seal variants which are
both of the cartridge seal type.
Pumps up to and including 1.5 kW have a silicon carbide/silicon
carbide (SiC/SiC) mechanical shaft seal as primary seal and a lip
seal as secondary seal. In connection with service, the lip seal
and mechanical shaft seal are supplied as one replaceable unit
ready for fitting. The components can be replaced individually.
See service instructions.
Pumps as from 2.6 kW have a double seal consisting of a SiC/SiC
mechanical seal as primary seal and a carbon/aluminium oxide
mechanical shaft seal as secondary seal. The components can
be replaced individually. See service instructions.

5.1.6 Level sensor
The piezoresistive pressure sensor placed in the controller is
connected via a hose to a pressure tube in the tank. The screw
cap where the hose is connected includes a connection for a DN
100 tube. This tube, the pressure tube, extends down into the
tank. The rising liquid level compresses the air inside the
pressure tube and hose, and the piezoresistive sensor transforms
the changing pressure into an analogue signal. The control box
uses the analogue signal to start and stop the pump and to
indicate high water-level alarm. The pressure tube is fixed
underneath the screw cap and can be taken out for maintenance,
service and for cleaning the inside of the tube. An O-ring ensures
tightness.
The hose is supplied in a length of 10 m. The hose must be
connected to the controller.

5.2 LC 221 controller
The LC 221 is a level controller specially designed for controlling
and monitoring the Grundfos lifting stations, Multilift MOG and
MDG. The basis for the control is the signal received continuously
from the piezoresistive, analogue level sensor.
The level controller switches the Multilift MOG and MDG pumps
on and off according to the liquid level measured by the level
sensor. When the first start level is reached, the first pump will
start, and when the liquid level has been lowered to the stop
level, the pump will be stopped by the controller. If the liquid level
rises up to the second start level, the second pump (only MDG)
will also start, and when the liquid level has been lowered to the
stop level, the pumps will be stopped by the controller.
Starts alternate between the two pumps (MDG).
In case of pump failure in one pump, the other pump will take
over (automatic pump changeover for MDG).
An alarm will be indicated in case of high water-level in the tank,
pump failure, etc.
Furthermore, the level controller has many more functions as
described below.
Fig. 7 LC 221 level controller for Multilift MOG
The LC 221 controller has the following functions:
• on/off control of one or two wastewater pumps based on a
continuous signal from a piezoresistive level sensor with
alternating operation and automatic changeover in case of
pump failure
• motor protection with motor-protective circuit breaker and/or
current measurement as well as connection of thermal
switches and a runtime limitation
• motor protection via operation-time limitation with subsequent
emergency operation. Normal operating times are max. 90
seconds with pipework DN 32 and 60 seconds with pipework
DN 40, and the operating time is limited to 3 minutes (see
section 6.4 Description of fault indications, fault code F011,
F012).
• automatic test runs (2 seconds) during long periods of
inactivity (24 hours after last operation)
• re-start delay up to 45 seconds after returning from power
cut-off to mains operation (in order to even out the mains load
when several appliances are started up at the same time)
• setting of delay times:
– stop delay (time from the stop level is reached till the
pumped is stopped) - reduces water hammer if pipes are
long
– start delay (time from the start level is reached till the
pumped is started)
– alarm delay (time from a fault appears till an alarm is
indicated). This prevents short-time high-level alarm in case
of temporary high inflow to the tank.
• automatic current measurement for alarm indications
• setting of current values:
– overcurrent
– rated current.
• operating indication of:
– operating mode (auto, manual)
– operating hours
– impulses (number of starts)
– highest measured motor current.
• alarm indication of:
TM05 1804 3811TM05 1859 3811
– pump status (running, fault)
– phase-sequence fault and missing phase
– thermal-switch failure
– high-level alarm (5 seconds delay)
– time for service/maintenance (selectable).
• selection of automatic alarm resetting
• fault log of up to 20 alarms
• selection between different start levels
• selection of maintenance interval (0, 3, 6 or 12 months).
As standard, the LC 221 has four potential-free outputs for:
– pump running
– pump failure
– high water-level alarm
– common fault.

functions:
– connecting an analogue sensor (4-20 mA or 0-5 V)
– connecting up to four level switches or pressure switches
instead of analogue sensors. An additional float switch can
be connected to the alarm input as backup for the analogue
sensors
– connecting a separate level switch to be used for flood
detection outside the Multilift MOG or MDG. Lifting stations
are often installed in a sump inside the basement - the
lowest point in the building. In case of e.g. groundwater
inflow or water pipe burst, an alarm will be indicated by the
controller.
– connecting a piezoresistive pressure sensor PCB
(pre-assembled)
– connecting an external alarm reset
– connecting the thermal switch of the motor.
For updates and further adjustments, a PC Tool can be
connected. See service instructions.
To allow for the situation that the normal power supply should fail,
a battery (accessory) can be installed which activates an acoustic
alarm (buzzer). The buzzer is activated as long as the fault exists.
It cannot be reset.
In case of sectional power failure, the common alarm output
which is a potential-free changeover contact can be used to
forward the alarm signal to a control room by means of an
external power source.

Description
(Only three-phase pumps)
The phase sequence between control board and power
supply is wrong. See fig. 17.
(Only three-phase pumps)
One phase is missing.
Motor thermal switches connected to the controller will
stop pump 1 in case of overheating.
Motor thermal switches connected to the controller will
stop pump 2 in case of overheating.
Pump 1 is stopped if an overcurrent is measured for a
certain period of time (blockage protection).
Pump 2 is stopped, if an overcurrent is measured for a
certain period of time (blockage protection).
The pump has run for more than the allowed operating
time, and the controller has stopped the pump for a
defined 2cool-down period in order to prevent
overheating. The operating time and cool-down period
depend on the pump. See the duty type on the nameplate.
Check that the outlet valve is open.
Check that the non-return valve is functioning. A leaky
non-return valve can allow liquid in the outlet pipe to flow
back into the tank.
Remove any blockage from the vent hose at the pump
outlet.
An external level switch can be connected to the
controller to give an alarm if basement outside the lifting
station is flooded by groundwater or water from burst
water pipe.
Pump 1 receives a signal to stop, but does not react. This
situation is detected by current measurement.
Pump 1 receives a signal to start, but does not react. This
situation is detected by current measurement.
Pump 2 receives a signal to stop, but does not react. This
situation is detected by current measurement.
Pump 2 receives a signal to start, but does not react. This
situation is detected by current measurement.

7.2 Guidelines for installation of lifting station
The guidelines for correct mechanical installation of a lifting
station are according to EN 12056-4.
See section 7.1.1 Installation sketch.
• Install the lifting station in a properly lit and vented room with
60 cm free space around all parts to be serviced and operated.
• Provide a pump sump below the floor level. If a lifting station is
installed in a basement with the risk of penetrating
groundwater, it is advisable (in certain countries required) to
install a drainage pump in a separate pump sump below floor
level in order to drain the room. See fig. 18.
The collecting tank, pump and cables may be flooded
(max. 2 m for 7 days).
The controller must be installed in a dry and well
ventilated place.
• All pipe connections must be flexible to reduce resonance.
• Lifting stations must be secured against uplift and twist.
• All outlet pipes from lifting station, diaphragm pump and
drainage pump must have a bend above the local backwater
level. The highest point of the bend/reversed water seal must
be above street level. See fig. 18.
• For outlet pipes, DN 80 and upwards, install an isolating valve
in the outlet pipe. Also provide an isolating valve in the inlet
line.
• Surface water must not be discharged into the lifting station
inside the building. It should have its own pumping station
outside the building.
• Lifting stations must be provided with an approved non-return
valve according to EN 12050-4.
• The volume of the outlet pipe above the non-return-valve up to
the backwater level must be smaller than the effective tank
volume.
• In general, a lifting station for black wastewater must be
vented above roof level. However, it is permitted to lead the
ventilation, as a secondary ventilation, into the main building
ventilation system. Special vent valves (accessory) should be
placed outside the building.
• If the wastewater is discharged into a collecting line, this
collecting line must have a filling ratio of at least h/d = 0.7. The
collecting line must be at least one nominal diameter bigger
after the outlet pipe connection.
• The controller must be placed in a flood safe place and be
equipped with an alarm.
Use a diaphragm pump for simple, manual draining of the
collecting tank in case of pump failure (not obligatory).

7.3 Procedure for installation of lifting station
Note
Caution
Note
1. Check the scope of delivery.
For scope of delivery, see section 2. Scope of delivery.
2. Prepare the adjustable inlet on the back of MOG or MDG.
The turnable inlet disk has a DN 100 inlet and allows the inlet
height to be adjusted to any height between 180 and 315 mm
above floor level. The most common heights, 180, 250 and
315 mm, are marked beside the inlet. See fig. 19. An inlet disk
with a DN 150 inlet is available as an accessory. See fig. 20.
The screws around the outer ring of the inlet disk are not fully
tightened allowing the inlet disk to be turned. This will allow
the inlet to be adjusted to the desired inlet height.
When the desired inlet height has been set, tighten all screws.
All screws must be tightened to max. 9 Nm.
English (GB)
Before connecting Multilift MOG or MDG, consider
that when turning the inlet disk to fit to the height of
the inlet pipe, the lifting station and the outlet will
move sideways accordingly (max. 72.5 mm). See fig.
19.

TM05 0336 1011
Fig. 21 Untightened screw in outer ring
Multilift MOG and MDG lifting stations are supplied
with loose screws in the outer ring of the turnable
inlet disk. See fig. 21. Check and tighten all screws
to max. tightening torque of 9 Nm before connecting
the inlet pipe.
If the main inlet is not to be used it can easily be
plugged using a standard DN 100 pipe plug fastened
with three screws and washers. See fig. 22.

3. Prepare optional inlets by cutting out the desired one.
Use cup drills ∅150 for DN 150, ∅100 for DN100 and ∅43 for
DN 50 inlets. The cutting line is recessed. To avoid sharp
cutting edges, the holes must be deburred. The socket seals
are provided with collars.

Use cup drill, ∅43, for DN 50 connection socket. To avoid
sharp cutting edges, the hole must be deburred.
Fig. 23 Cutting or drilling of optional connection holes
5. Connect the inlet pipe to the tank.
Install an isolating valve between inlet pipe and lifting station
to avoid inflow during maintenance and service. We
recommend an easy-to-handle PVC isolating valve.
7. Connect the vent pipe.
The DN 70 vent port on top of the tank is open. Connect the
vent pipe to the vent port via a flexible connecting piece. The
vent pipe must be led out above the roof into the open air in
accordance with local regulations. Check the use of vent
valves (accessory) according to local regulations if venting
above the roof is impossible. A flexible connection can be
ensured if a distance of approx. 3 cm is left between the vent
pipe end and the vent port.
8. Connect the diaphragm pump (optional).
Fit the diaphragm pump on the outlet side. To facilitate
servicing of the diaphragm pump, we recommend fitting a
1 1/2" isolating valve to the tank port.
9. Fix the tank to the floor.

Motor protectionMotor protection
English (GB)
Only the start level corresponding to the inlet level to the
collecting tank needs to be set. All other values are preset but
can be adjusted if required.
Select the height of the inlet pipe, 180, 250 or 315 mm above
floor level, using the buttons and , and press the button
to save the desired value. If the height of the inlet pipe is between
two values, e.g. 220 mm above the floor, choose the nearest
lower value (180 mm). Now the controller is ready for automatic
mode.
The following values can be changed, if necessary:
Start level
The start level must be set according to the inlet pipe height
above floor level (180, 250 and 315 mm). Stop and alarm levels
are preset.
Rated current
Preset value from factory according to the rated current of the
motor. The protection against pump blockage is a preset value for
overcurrent.
Stop delay
The stop delay increases the effective volume and reduces the
quantity of residual water in the tank. It also prevents water
hammer. The non-return valve closes more softly. The preset
value is 0.
Start delay
Normally no need to make adjustments for lifting stations except
on a house boat or pontoon boat. The preset value is 0.
Alarm delay
High temporary inflow can cause short-time high-level alarm. This
situation may arise when a backwash filter of a swimming pool is
connected to Multilift MOG or MDG. The preset value is 5
seconds.
Maintenance interval
The maintenance/service interval can be set to 0, 3, 6 or 12
months and is indicated in the "SERVICE" display (no acoustic
signal).
Reset alarm
It is possible to set the controller to reset some alarms
automatically when the fault disappears; however, most alarms
must be reset manually. See section 6.4 Description of fault
indications. The preset value is AUTO.
Reset to factory settings
The controller will reboot, and startup settings will have to be
made again. See section 6.2 Setup menu.
8.4.1 External alarm
Lifting stations are often installed in sumps below the basement
of buildings. That is the deepest point in the building, and an
additional alarm level switch can be placed outside the lifting
station to detect flooding caused by leakages, pipe bursts or
groundwater inflow.
The external alarm can be connected to a level switch (230 V / 2
A) at terminals 13, 14.
Warning
Before starting any work on a pump used for
pumping liquids which could be hazardous to health,
clean and vent the pump, pit, etc., thoroughly
according to local regulations.
Warning
Before making any connections in LC 221 or working
on pump, pit, etc., make sure that the power supply
has been switched off and that it cannot be
accidentally switched on.
Prior to startup, the connection and settings must have been
carried out according to sections 8.3 Electrical connection and
8.4 Setting of LC 221.
Startup must be carried out by authorised personnel.
Proceed as follows:
1. Check all connections.
2. Connect the plug to the power supply and follow the controller
startup sequence.
Note: It will take up to 45 seconds to boot the controller. It can
be interrupted down to 5 seconds by pressing OK button.
When the power supply is connected for the first time, three
values for the start level can be chosen (180, 250 or 315 mm
above floor level) according to the inlet height to the collecting
tank. If the inlet height is between two levels choose the lower
level for start in the display. All other settings are preset.
Some can be changed. See section 8.4 Setting of LC 221.
Now the controller is ready for automatic mode
(selector switch in pos. AUTO).
3. Open the isolating valves in outlet and inlet lines.
4. Activate a sanitary appliance connected to the inflow of the
Multilift MOG or MDG and monitor the increasing liquid level
in the tank up to the start level. Check the starts and stops at
least twice.
If the pump cable was disconnected from the
controller, for instance to lead the cable through an
empty cable conduit, the wires must be connected in
accordance with the wiring diagrams.
10. Maintenance and service
The Multilift MOG and MDG require a minimum of maintenance.
Warning
Before carrying out maintenance and service on
lifting stations used for pumping liquids which might
be hazardous to health, make sure that the lifting
station has been thoroughly flushed with clean water
and that the outlet pipe has been drained. Rinse the
parts in water after dismantling. Make sure that the
isolating valves have been closed. The work must be
carried out in accordance with local regulations.
Warning
Before making any connections in LC 221 or working
on lifting stations, make sure that the power supply
has been switched off and that it cannot be
accidentally switched on.
According to EN 12056-4, lifting stations must be checked at the
following regular intervals:
• every 12 months in single-family houses
• every 6 months in multi-family dwellings
• every 3 months in commercial and industrial applications.
During the check, local regulations must be observed.
The periodic checks of the lifting station should be carried out by
authorised personnel and must comprise electrical and
mechanical maintenance.
Check the following points:
• Outlet and inlet connections
Check all connections to the lifting station for tightness and
leakages. Make sure that weight from the inlet, outlet and vent
pipes does not rest on the tank. Long pipe sections, valves,
etc. must be supported.
• Power consumption
See nameplate.
• Cable entry
Make sure that the cable entry is watertight and that the
cables are not bent sharply and/or pinched.
• Pump parts
Open the clamp of the pump housing, remove the pump from
the tank and check the grinder system. Check that the vent
tube to the tank is not blocked. When the pump is mounted
again, we recommend replacing the O-ring between pump and
tank. Make a test run with clean water. In case of noise,
vibration or abnormal running, contact Grundfos.
• Ball bearings
Check the shaft for noisy or heavy operation. Replace
defective ball bearings. A general overhaul of the pump is
usually required in case of defective ball bearings or poor
motor function. This work must be carried out by the
manufacturer or an authorised service workshop.
• Check non-return and isolating valves for correct function.
10.1 Mechanical maintenance
• Remove possible deposits and/or sludge buildup in the
collecting tank.
• Remove any blockages on the inlet side of the lifting station. A
blockage will typically be a large solid object.
• Check and replace the gaskets of connections at valves, etc.,
if necessary.
• Check the tank for cracks and deformations. These may occur
in case of faulty assembly and therefore excessive stress on
the tank.
The above list is not complete. The lifting station may
be installed in environments which require thorough
and regular maintenance.
10.2 Electrical maintenance
• Check the gasket of the LC 221 cabinet front cover and of the
cable entries.
• Check the cable connections.
• Check the controller functions.
• Check and clean the level sensor. See section 10.3 Cleaning
the level sensor.
• If LC 221 is installed in a particularly moist environment in a
basement, we recommend checking the terminals on the PCB
in order to identify possible corrosion. In typical installations,
the terminals will work for several years and do not require any
inspection.
• Replace the 9 V battery, if fitted, in connection with annual
service.
The above list is not complete. LC 221 may be
installed in environments which require thorough and
frequent maintenance.

10.3 Cleaning the level sensor
English (GB)
1. Push the ON-OFF-AUTO selector switch to position OFF ( ).
See section 5.2.2 Control panel.
2. Loosen the screw cap by turning it counterclockwise.
See fig. 30.
3. Lift the sensor carefully out of the collecting tank. Do not lift it
by means of the hose.
4. Check for possible deposits on or in the pressure tube. See
section 5.1.6 Level sensor.
5. Scrape off any deposits. If necessary, remove the hose from
the controller, and rinse the tube and hose with clean water at
low pressure. Make sure no water remains in the hose.
6. Refit the pressure tube by screwing the screw cap on to the
tank. Reconnect the hose to the controller. Check the sensor
by test running Multilift MOG or MDG.

10.4 Contaminated lifting station or components
Warning
If a Multilift lifting station has been used for a liquid
which is injurious to health or toxic, it will be
classified as contaminated.
If Grundfos is requested to service the lifting station, Grundfos
must be contacted with details about the pumped liquid, etc.
before the lifting station is returned for service. Otherwise
Grundfos can refuse to accept the lifting station for service.
Lifting stations which have been in contact with the pumped liquid
must be thoroughly cleaned before they are returned to Grundfos.
Any costs of returning the lifting station are to be paid by the
customer.
However, any application for service (no matter to whom it may
be made) must include details about the pumped liquid if the
lifting station has been used for liquids which are injurious to
health or toxic.

11. Fault finding
Warning
Before carrying out any work on lifting stations used
for pumping liquids which might be hazardous to
health, make sure that the lifting station has been
thoroughly flushed with clean water and that the
outlet pipe has been drained. Rinse the parts in
water after dismantling. Make sure that the isolating
valves have been closed.
The work must be carried out in accordance with
local regulations.
Before making any connections in the LC 221 or
work on lifting stations, etc., it must be ensured that
the power supply has been switched off and that it
cannot be accidentally switched on.

c) Control circuit fuses are blown.Check and eliminate the cause. Replace the control
d) The motor-protective circuit breaker has cut
out the pump (only relevant if a
motor-protective circuit breaker has been
installed). The pump symbol in the display is
flashing and the red indicator light for fault is
flashing. The fault indication in the display is
RELAY and the fault code is F018.
e) Motor/supply cable is defective or the
connections have become loose.
f) The fault indication in the display is

Check the pump and tank as well as the setting of the
motor-protective circuit breaker. If the pump is blocked,
remove the blockage. If the setting of the
motor-protective circuit breaker is wrong, readjust it
(compare the setting with the nameplate).
Check motor and supply cable. Replace cable or
retighten connections if necessary.
Clean the level sensor (see section 10.3 Cleaning the
level sensor), and start up again. Check the cable and
the connection on the controller board. If the signal is
still wrong, please call Grundfos service.
Replace the PCB or LCD board.

3. The pump(s) is/are
starting/stopping too
frequently and even if
there is no inflow.
4. One pump starts
sometimes without
visible reason.
a) The level sensor fails. The sensor gives
wrong signal.
b) The operating time protection is activated,
the pump and time symbols are flashing, the
red LED is flashing and the display indicates
fault code F011 and/or F012. If the pump
runs longer than 3 minutes, a protection
program of the controller will stop the pump
for 3 minutes and the other pump will take
over. At the next start impulse, the first
pump will be activated again. If the venting
problem persists, the pump will be stopped
after 3 minutes and so on.
Note: Normal operating times are max. 90
seconds with pipework DN 32 and 60
seconds with pipework DN 40.
c) The thermal switch has cut out the pump.
The pump and thermal switch symbols on
the display are flashing, and the red
indicator light for fault is permanently on.
The fault indication in the display is TEMP
and in the fault code is F005 and/or F006.
a) Test run 24 hours after last operation.No action necessary. It is a safety function that prevents

(see section 10.3 Cleaning the level sensor).
Check that the outlet valve is open. Check the venting of
the pump housing. If blocked clean the vent hole.
Allow the pump to cool. After cooling, the pump will
restart automatically unless the LC 221 has been set to
manual restarting. See section 8.4 Setting of LC 221. If
so, the ON-OFF-AUTO selector switch must be pushed
into position OFF ( ) for a short period.
Check the inflow parameters and the non-return valve.
The risk is low, but if the non-return valve flap is leaky,
liquid in the outlet pipe can flow back.
A high number of starts without cooling time in between
over a longer period can cause thermal cut-out.
Consider S3 duty. See section 12. Technical data.
