Water Requirements / Details of Water Connection
The pressure cleaner requires a permanent connection to the water mains supply.
Impurities, dirt and other solid particles contained in the water supply will cause damage
to the sensitive working parts of the positive displacement piston pump.
Therefore, the water supply to the pump should be of drink water (potable) quality. As
an additional precaution, the fitting of a suitable water filter, in-line before the high
pressure pump, is recommended.
Requirements in terms of water supply:
Corresponding to the maximum flow rate of the high pressure pump, the supply should
never be less than 780 / 840 litres per hour, at any time.
The actual supply pressure should never be less than 3 bar and never more than 5 bar,
at any time.
The water supply line should at least have a ¾" or alternatively 1" diameter and must be
equipped with a suitable shut-off valve and hose connection facility.
PLEASE NOTE:
The NovaStar is not supplied with a water supply hose, from tap to machine,
however, a ¾" Geka quick coupling, male and female. forms part of the supply.
We suggest the use of a heavy duty, re-inforced water supply hose, ¾" diameter, with
both hose liners securely fastened with hose clamps.
