PUMP AND TUBING
CHOOSING THE CORRECT PUMP
Your Pressurized Filter System works best within a certain range of flow. See Table below. Exceeding these
values will cause leakage or breakage of the filter or its components and void the warranty.
PRESSURE FILTER
MODEL
CPF250/PF225
CPF500/PF450
CPF1000/PF900
CPF2000/PF1900
Note that the hose fittings of your pressure filter vary depending on your model. Be sure to check the fitting
sizes on the pump you choose and pick up the necessary adapters.
Choose a pump that does not exceed the recommended output for your pressure filter. Danner Manufacturing
produces a variety of pumps to choose from for your set-up. See our website and/or your dealer for a selection
of Pondmaster, Hampton Water Gardens and Supreme pumps.
Note that head height, length and diameter of hose and fittings all add to back pressure that can
overburden your pressure filter or lead to low water flow. To maximize your system do the following:
Avoid using more tubing than is necessary for your filtration set-up.
Use tubing with a diameter that is equal or greater than the intake and output ports of the filter.
Keep tubing as straight as possible to avoid kinks.
90
elbow connectors add to back pressure and should be kept to a minimum.
o
Use a bypass valve to bypass the optimal flow of water to the filter, allowing excess flow and pres-
sure to return directly back to the water feature.
ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS
Always use a properly grounded outlet. Do not immerse the plug in water. DO NOT REACH INTO THE WATER
TO REMOVE THE PLUG. TURN OFF CIRCUIT FIRST. A "drip loop" in the cords should be used. A "drip loop" is a
loop in the cord below the level of the receptacle or plug that prevents water from traveling along the cord.
The national Electric Code requires that a ground fault interrupter circuit (GFCI) be installed in every branch
circuit supplying the fountain or pond equipment. Your dealer can supply GFCI units. NEVER REMOVE
GROUND PIN FROM PLUG.
WARNING: FOR YOUR PROTECTION, ALWAYS UNPLUG THE UNIT FROM ITS POWER SOURCE BEFORE INSTALLING
OR SERVICING. DO NOT REACH, REMOVE OR DISASSEMBLE BEFORE YOU DISCONNECT POWER.
