Step 8 – Connecting the feed pump.
The unit is fed with tank water using a small DC feed pump which is supplied with the system. The pump is
fitted with a sponge pre-filter before the pump and a fine filter and non-return valve after the pump. It is
important that these are installed and maintained to prevent water back syphoning from the reactor.
Step 9 - Connecting the controller
The controller has five connections as shown below and numbered on the general layout diagram on page 2
of these instructions.
Step 10 - Filling the reactor with water
At this stage the reactor should be fully assembled and ready for filling with tank water and bleeding.
Connect the white feed pump hose to the nipple on the
top of the reactor as shown in the image to the left.
Connect the pump power supply cable to the correct port
on the control panel as indicated by a coloured tape band
on the pump connector.
Connections
•
Power supply
•
Auxiliary power supply (option)
•
Solenoid jack port and cable
•
Feed pump connection (green line)
•
Recirculation pump connection (red line)
Connect the cables and pumps in the positions shown on the
layout diagram on page 2 but do not plug the power supply
into the mains at this stage.
Each side of the two pump connections are colour coded for
ease of identification.
Replace the knurled cap on the media chamber with the
special funnel adaptor as shown in the image. Fill with tank
water using a pump and hose or jug through this port. You
will need to position the end of the outlet pipe at high level
to prevent it draining out during filling.
You can also choose to unscrew the top cap of the float
chamber, remove the float and pour water directly into the
float and gas chamber however always check that the O-ring
is in position before screwing back on the lid when full.
The unit will now be 95% full of water and only the pump
and top pipes will still be dry.
