3.3.4 How to reduce noise in the installation
We recommend to use flexible hoses and mount the
pump on a vibration-damping rubber pad.
Vibrations from the pump may be transferred to the surrounding
structure and create noise in the 20-1000 Hz spectrum, also
called the bass spectrum.
Correct installation using a vibration-damping rubber pad, flexible
hoses and correctly placed pipe hangers for rigid pipes can
reduce the noise experienced by up to 50 %. See fig. 4.
Place pipe hangers for the rigid pipes close to the connection of
the flexible hose.

Carry out the electrical connection according to local
regulations.
Check that the supply voltage and frequency
correspond to the values stated on the nameplate.
4. Starting up the product
Do not start the pump until it has been filled with
liquid.
DANGER
Electric shock
Death or serious personal injury
- Switch off the power supply before starting any
work on the product. Make sure that the power
supply cannot be accidentally switched on.
DANGER
Electric shock
Death or serious personal injury
- The pump must be earthed.
- The pump is supplied with a grounding conductor
and grounding-type attachment plug. To reduce
the risk of electric shock, be certain that the pump
is connected only to a properly grounded,
grounding type receptacle (protective earthing).
- If national legislation requires a Residual Current
Device (RCD), a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI), or equivalent in the electrical installation,
this must be type B (according to UL/IEC
61800-5-1) or better, due to the nature of the
constant DC leakage current.
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be
replaced by the manufacturer, his service agent or
similarly qualified persons in order to avoid hazard.
We recommend that you fit the permanent
installation with a residual-current circuit breaker
(RCCB) with a tripping current less than 30 mA.
4.1 Priming the pump
1. Unscrew the priming plug and pour minimum 1.7 litres (0.45
gallons) of water into the pump housing. See fig. 9.
2. Screw the priming plug on again.
If the suction depth exceeds 6 m (20 ft), it may be
necessary to prime the pump more than once.
Always tighten priming and drain plugs by hand.
4.2 Starting the pump
1. Open a tap to prepare the pump for venting.
2. Insert the power plug into the socket or turn on the power
supply and the pump will start.
3. When water flows without air, close the tap.
4. Open the highest tapping point in the installation, preferably a
shower.
5. Adjust the pressure setpoint to the required pressure by
means of the buttons. See section 4.3 How to set the
correct pressure.
6. Close the tapping point.
Startup has been completed.
3.4.1 Motor protection
The pump incorporates current and temperature dependent
motor protection.
3.4.2 Plug connection
DANGER
Electric shock
Death or serious personal injury
- Check that the power plug delivered with the
product is in compliance with local regulations.
- Make sure that the pump is connected only to a
properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle
(protective earthing).
- The protective earth of the power outlet must be
connected to the protective earth of the pump. The
plug must therefore have the same PE connection
system as the power outlet. If not, use a suitable
adapter.
3.4.3 Connection without plug
The electrical connection must be carried out by an
authorised electrician in accordance with local
regulations.
DANGER
Electric shock
Death or serious personal injury
- The pump must be connected to an external main
switch with a minimum contact gap of 3 mm (0.12
inch) in all poles.

The pump can be set to provide a water pressure between 1.5 to
5.5 bar (22 to 80 psi) at intervals of 0.5 bar (7 psi).
The factory setting is 3 bar (44 psi). See section 3.2 System
sizing.
We recommend to use the default pressure of 3.0 bar
(44 psi) which will suit most applications.
The difference between the inlet pressure and outlet
pressure must not exceed 3.5 bar (51 psi).
Example: If the inlet pressure is 0.5 bar (7 psi), the
maximum outlet pressure is 4 bar (58 psi).
If you set the pressure too high, this might cause the
pump to operate for up to three minutes after the tap
is turned off.
4.3.1 Boosting from a well or a tank
If you are boosting from a well or a tank, make sure not to set the
pressure setpoint too high. The difference between the inlet
pressure and outlet pressure must not exceed 3.5 bar (51 psi).
4.4 Shaft seal run-in
The shaft seal faces are lubricated by the pumped liquid. A slight
leakage from the shaft seal of up to 10 ml per day or 8 to 10 drops
per hour may occur.
When the pump is started up for the first time, or when the shaft
seal has been replaced, a certain run-in period is required before
the leakage is reduced to an acceptable level. The time required
for this depends on the operating conditions, that is, every time
the operating conditions change, a new run-in period will be
started.
Under normal conditions, the leaking liquid will evaporate. As a
result, no leakage will be detected.
The leakage is visible where the screws are mounted on the base
plate. If the unlikely event of an internal leakage occurs, the liquid
will be drained through the bottom of the pump. Install the pump
in such a way that no undesirable collateral damage can arise.

The factory setting for this function is "on".
On
If the pump cannot reach the user-defined pressure setpoint, the
self-learning function will automatically adjust the setpoint.
The pump will lower the setpoint to either 4.5, 3.5 or 2.5 bar (65,
51 or 36 psi).
The self-learned setpoint is indicated on the operating panel by
one flashing green light.
After every 24 hours, the pump will automatically attempt to revert
to the original user-defined setpoint. If this is not possible, the
pump will again return to the self-learned setpoint. The pump will
continue to operate with the self-learning setpoint, until the
user-defined setpoint can be reached.
Example:
The user-defined pressure is set to 5 bar (72 psi), indicated by
constant green lights on the pressure indicator panel.
The pump is unable to reach this pressure due to negative
pressure on the inlet side.
The self-learning function automatically adjusts the setpoint to 3.5
bar (51 psi), indicated by one flashing green light on the pressure
indicator panel.
After 24 hours, the pump will automatically try to adjust the
setpoint back to 5 bar (72 psi).
