• Do not leave the device running unattended to ensure an
early detection of when the device runs dry or switches off
automatically. This would damage the device. Regularly
check the float for proper functioning.
• Please bear in mind, that the device is not suitable for
continuous operation (e.g. for watercourses in garden
ponds). Check the device for proper functioning on a
regular basis.
• Keep in mind, that lubricants are used within the device.
These might potentially cause damages or contaminations
if emitted. Do not use the device for drinking water or in
garden ponds with either a fish population or valuable
plants.
• The device is not to be carried by holding it at the power

Device description
The submerged clear water pump TWP 4005 E / TWP 7505 E/
TWP 9005 E is suited for draining, conveying and pumping over
clear water with the contained suspended matter not exceeding
a maximum particle size of 5mm.
The device comes with near-ground suction and can extract
clear water up to a residual height of 3mm.
A float ensures the automatic switch-on and switch-off at a
respectively defined height. Additionally, the switch-on/-off
height can be finely adjusted within the specified range by
means of a locking device, see technical data.
The water temperature must not exceed 35°C.
