    3 Product Description 3 Product Description 3.1 General description AquaBoost pumping package The AquaBoost Variable Speed pumping package can precisely match the pump discharge pressure to the system pressure by varying the speed of the pump. This is accomplished by using the variable-speed controllers such as the Aquavar IPC. The pressure transducer monitors the system pressure, allowing the controller to start and regulate the pump speed.

Electrical troubleshooting must be done by a qualified electrician. Failure to follow these instructions will result in serious personal injury, death, and/or property damage.
  • Page 27: The Pumps Run But Do Not Build Desired Pressure

    7 Troubleshooting Cause Remedy The impeller is bound. Check to see if you can turn the pump by hand. Check for a bound impeller. A pressure transducer is faulty. Replace faulty pressure transducers. Motor wiring is loose. Make sure that motor wiring is securely connected. Motor windings have lost insulation strength.
  • Page 28: The Pump Station Experiences Excessive Vibration

    7 Troubleshooting Cause Remedy The inlet pressure does not match the project Check to see if the inlet pressure matches the project specifications. specifications. Variations in inlet pressure can have detrimental effects on performance. A pipe is broken. Check for broken pipes. The transducer isolation valves are closed.
  • Page 29: The Pump Station Cycles Or Hunts Erratically

    7 Troubleshooting Cause Remedy There are leaks or broken pipes. Check for broken pipes or leaks. Does the system pressure decrease if the pump station is turned off? The diaphragm tank is faulty. Check for a properly installed diaphragm tank. Has the tank failed? Has the tank been charged to the proper operating pressure before installation? (~10 psi below the desired set point)
