User Manual for BPS-200 www.levitronix.com State “Off”: The pump system is switched off and the motor has no power. In this state, Levitronix Service Software has full control. State “ON” (speed control mode): The pump system is switched ON and the impeller is rotating with the referenced speed. The motor has electrical power when in this state.
The impeller has a limited lifetime depending on the chemical type, concentration and temperature of the fluid which is pumped. Therefore a preventive periodical exchange of the impeller is recommended. Contact the Levitronix Technical Service Department (see Section 7.2) for further information on replacement times. 7.2 Impeller Replacement Procedure 7.2.1 Preparation...
