FIELD SERVICE TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
VRTX UNIT
1. Pressure gauge reads low.
• Clean strainer.
• If low on start-up, check pump rotation.
•• If running backwards, have electrician change two of the three black wires.
2. Vacuum gauge reads low.
• See pressure gauge.
• Make sure liquid filled pressure gauges are vented (see installation instructions).
• Check vacuum gauge line to make sure it is not plugged.
3. Gauges fluctuating.
• Check suction for leaks - starved for water.
• Check for pump cavitation (minimum submergence).
• Check for air bubbles at pump suction inlet.
NOTE: On older units, the vacuum gauge was not rated for any pressure. On units with 0-30 in Hg
(inches of mercury), disconnect
the vacuum gauge before
building up back pressure.
5. If there is still a problem, shut down the VRTX unit. Wait for two-three (2-3) minutes and re-start.
NOTE: If air leaks into the suction piping, the VRTX will not work (i.e., cavitate). The suction piping
must be air-tight.
