CKC31.5 400AR
USE AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTION MANUAL
For three phase pumps it is imperative that electrical connections are made so that the
Filterpump "KICKS" in the correct direction. If the pumps are run in the wrong direction
for more than a few seconds serious damage may result which will invalidate the
guarantee.
Read paragraph 9.3 before installation for the method of checking correct direction of
rotation.
Although the filters are self-cleaning there may over time be a build-up of detritus in
the pores of the mesh which the self-cleaning mechanism cannot remove.
For stainless steel filter mesh use a pressure washer to very thoroughly clean the
outside of the mesh.
For nylon screens either clean low pressure water or replacement inserts are available
from Rotorflush Filters Ltd.
If the pump is run with the filter screen clogged it may cause the pump to overheat
and seriously damage the motor invalidating the guarantee. The use of appropriate cos
phi load monitoring and dry running protection is essential with all models.
In most conditions the filter should be inspected every 2 months. In some situations it
may require more frequent inspection and if required cleaning.
Stainless steel screens should be thoroughly cleaned with a pressure washer. Nylon
screens should be cleaned with gentle running water or replaced. It is recommended
that nylon screens are replaced at these intervals:
Nylon screens:
Fine Stainless steel screens
Coarse stainless steel screens
NB: Maintenance is estimated on averagely dirty raw water conditions. Water quality,
and therefore maintenance intervals, can vary greatly
