The Aerator - ProFlo 500 Owner's Manual

IMPORTANT!
The Pro Flo Wastewater Treatment System is not a "septic tank".
Septic tanks use and/or work by a different form of bacteria. The
use of chemicals that correct septic tank problems could greatly
affect the aerobic bacteria in your new system. If you have any
doubts about a certain chemical, please call your author ized
installer, distributor, or the home office of Pro Flo Aerobic Systems,
LP at 936-372-5222.

The Aerator

Your system may be equipped with a quiet, energy efficient linear
aerator. The aerator is located under the aerator cover on top of the
system (location may vary). The amperage draw of each aerator
depends on the model. A linear 500 g.p.d. & 600 g.p.d. (gallons per
day) aerator draws about 1.6 amps and the linear 800 g.p.d. and 1000
g.p.d. aerators draw about 2.1 amps each. The linear aerator for the
1500 g.p.d. system draws about 3.4 amps.
If you purchased a 1000 g.p.d. or 1500 g.p.d. model, your system may
have a carbon vane aerator which runs louder than a linear aerator.
The carbon vane 1000 g.p.d. aerator draws about 3 amps. The carbon
vane aerator for the 1500 g.p.d. system draws about 10.4 amps.
You should get used to the sound of your aerator on your new system.
If you notice extreme sound changes, you should call for service.
WARNING!
Never attempt to service or clean your filter on your aerator
yourself. Call your authorized service representative. As with any
electrical device, there is a chance of electrical shock if you attempt
to service the system yourself.
