EN - PAD / PAD1 DEMINERALISED WATER PUMP

WARNING
This instruction sheet is intended for authorised SMEG technical
personnel.

WARNING - WHEN INSTALLING THE “PAD” OR “PAD1” MAKE SURE THAT:

The pump intake pressure is less than 1 bar. SMEG is not liable for any damage if the
demineralised water pump is installed with higher intake pressures.
Warning: this component is powered at mains voltage:
~230V 50Hz 1/N/PE - grounding is required.
SMEG declines all responsibility for any damage or injury caused by incorrect installation
of the pump by unauthorised technical staff. Use only the fixing devices supplied by Smeg.

WARNING – DEMI WATER SOLENOID VALVE FLOW REDUCER

In some cases, if the water pressure is insufficient for proper operation of the solenoid
valve even with the pump installed, the flow reducer fitted inside the valve must be
removed as shown below.

1. Remove the valve’s external filter (white)

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION SHEET

DEMINERALISED WATER PUMP

1 CONTENTS OF THE PACK

1. 1 (one) pump support box; the steel box contains the assembled PAD pump.

2. 1 (one) power cord for electrical connection of the pump.

3. Mounting and sealing accessories (4 self-tapping screws for sheet metal, for fixing the box to the
rear casing, one gasket for connecting the water supply hose to the pump)

2 ATTENTION

SMEG appliances may not be connected to non-pressurised demineralised water supplies (e.g. tanks
operating by gravity) unless a special “PAD” demineralised water pump is installed.

This pump ensures that the demineralised water is supplied to the appliance with sufficient pressure to
ensure its proper operation. The PAD is installed on the outside of the rear of the appliance.

The PAD must be installed on the appliance by a SMEG authorised technician.

2. Remove the flow reducer underneath the filter, then put the filter back in place.

WARNING
Once the reducer has been removed, the valve is able to deliver a higher flow rate.
If the intake pressure increases due to changes in the upstream system, reassess
the operating conditions.
At high pressures, valves without flow reducers may malfunction and be unable to
shut off the flow effectively.

3 COMPATIBILITY BETWEEN PAD AND SMEG APPLIANCE MODELS

Appliance models which can be fitted with the optional PAD demineralised water pump:
GW1060, WD1050, GW3060, GW4090.

4 COMPATIBILITY BETWEEN PAD1 AND SMEG APPLIANCE MODELS

Appliance models which can be fitted with the optional PAD1 demineralised water pump:
GW1160, WD1160, GW4060, WD4060, GW4190, WD4190.

The pump is connected to the electrical system in parallel with the “EVD” demineralised water solenoid
valve.

Some models are prewired for electrical connection of the PAD; the connection cable is inside the rear
casing. The relevant products are:
GW3060, GW4090.

Other models are not prewired and the PAD or PAD1 pump has to be connected in parallel with the EVD
demi water solenoid valve using the cable provided:
GW2045, GW1060, WD1050, GW1160, WD1160, GW4060, WD4060, GW4190, WD4190.

5 PAD INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

The procedure for installing the PAD pump is similar on different models; for the sake of brevity, only
installation on the SMEG WD1050 model is described in detail below.

Access to the rear of the appliance, and the rear cross-piece in particular, is required.

PAD POWER SUPPLY
CABLE ENTRY SLEEVE

The PAD comes complete with a cable for the electrical connection to the appliance.
The installation procedure is as follows:

a. Disconnect the water intake hoses from their respective solenoid valves:
b. Unscrew the fixing screws that secure the right and left lids to the rear cross-piece

and the solenoid fixing screws;

c. Pass the PAD connection cable supplied through the sleeve on the right-hand lid and

connect the end with “dual faston” terminal (insulated female faston terminal
combined with male terminal) to the demi water solenoid valve and the appliance’s

wiring system. This connects the PAD pump in parallel with the solenoid valve.

d. The yellow/green ground wire must be connected to the unused faston terminal fixed to the

brass screw on the plate on the right at the rear of the appliance (on the inside). The

appliance’s main ground line is connected to the brass screw;
e. Close the metal lids and secure the solenoid valves;
f. Make the electrical connection to the pump;
g. Fix the metal box containing the “PAD” to the plate on the rear of the appliance using the

self-tapping screws provided;

Reconnect the intake hoses. The demineralised water intake hose is a transparent mesh-

reinforced hose.

N.B.: on GW3060 and GW4090 models the connecting cable supplied with the pump is not required. There
is a terminal board to which the wiring for connection of the PAD is connected on the inside of the rear
casing.

Disconnect the wiring from the terminal board and use it to make the electrical connection to the PAD.

through which the electrical connection cable is passed is on the right-hand lid.
