7. TROUbLESHOOTING
Problem
The motor is not running.
The motor turns slowly when starting.
Low or no flow rate.
Increased pump noise.
leakage from the body pump.
7.1.
The priming phase may last from several seconds to a few minutes, dependant on conditions. Should this phase appear to be prolonged,
stop the pump and check the following:
●
That the pump is not running completely dry (see section 5.2 on priming the pump).
●
That the suction tubing is not allowing air in.
●
That the filter is not clogged.
●
That the difference in height between the pump and the end of the suction hose is not more than 2mtr.
●
That the delivery tube is allowing the evacuation of air.
7.2.
When priming has occurred, ensure that the pump is operating as anticipated.
8. MAINTENANcE
8.1.
Check the pump casing, suction and delivery tubes regularly for leaks.
8.2.
Keep the pump clean for easy detection of leaks.
8.3.
Remove and clean the filter every 10 hours of operation or sooner if the transfer flow begins to decrease.
8.4.
dispose of environmentally hazardous parts in the proper manner.
8.5.
This pump is protected from voltage surges and short circuits by a trip switch.
