Important Information on InitialCommissioning

Since an anti-corrosion agent is added in the final inspection stage for quality assurance purposes, the machine may still contain traces of residue. Therefore, carry out the following steps to ensure uninterrupted operation and a long service life.

  1. Remove the water filler screw
  2. Fill with clean water until the pump is full
  3. Screw in the water filler screw
  4. Open the pressure line (water tap)
  5. Switch on the pump and allow it to run for approx. 1 min
  6. Switch off the pump and disconnect the mains plug
  7. Open the water filler and drain screw and allow the remaining water to drain out via the water drain screw
  8. Screw in the water drain screw
  9. Fill with clean water until the pump is full
  10. Screw in the water filler screw
  11. Slightly open the pressure line (water tap)
  12. Connect the mains plug and switch on the pump
  13. Repeat the steps again, if required

Failure to observe these technical instructions may lead to foaming in the machine. This prevents the intake of water to the pump. If no water is supplied, the pump is not switched off and the resulting high temperature of the water in the pump head may damage the pump. Caution: Danger of hot water escaping from the pump!

The anti-corrosion agent is classified as harmless to humans, animals and the environment!

The manufacturer cannot be held liable for damage resulting from failure to observe the operating instructions or this supplementary sheet!

  1. Check to see that the power cable is unplugged.

  2. Hold hydrostatic pressure switch housing with one hand to keep the cable to the pump from twisting.

  3. Screw the Hydromat's lower part onto the pumps discharge port; lift housing slightly, if necessary.

  4. Position Hydromat so that its controls are conveniently reached.

5.2 Installation

  • The equipment must be placed on a plane and level surface, suitable of bearing the weight of the equipment fully filled with water.
  • To prevent vibrations, the equipment should not be fastened with screws but placed onto an elastic base.
  • The installation location should be well vented and protected from atmospheric exposure.
  • When operated at garden ponds and pools the equipment must be set up safe against flooding and protected from falling into the water. Any additional legal requirements are to be observed.

5.3 Suction line connection

METABO HWA 5500 M - Suction line connection - 1

Note:

① Possibly further accessories may be required for connection (see "Available Accessories").

METABO HWA 5500 M - Note: - 1

Caution!

The suction line needs to be installed in such manner that it does not exert mechanical force or distortion to the pump.

METABO HWA 5500 M - Caution! - 1

Caution!

When pumping contaminated fluids install a suction strainer to protect the pump from sand and dirt.

METABO HWA 5500 M - Caution! - 1

Note:

A check valve is recommended to prevent water backflow when the pump is switched off.

  • All screw fittings need to be sealed with thread sealing tape; leakage places cause the priming of air and reduce or prevent the priming of water.
  • The suction line should have at least 1" (25 mm) inner diameter; it must be non-buckling and vacuum-proof.
  • Keep suction line as short as practical, since with increasing length the pump capacity is reduced.
  • The suction line should raise towards the pump to prevent air locks.
  • A sufficient water supply must be ensured, the foot valve at the end of the suction line must be submerged in water at all times.

5.4 Discharge hose connection

METABO HWA 5500 M - Discharge hose connection - 1

Note:

Possibly further accessories may be required for connection (see "Available Accessories").

METABO HWA 5500 M - Note: - 1

Caution!

The discharge (or pressure) line needs to be installed in such manner that it does not exert mechanical force or distortion to the pump.

  • All screw fittings should be sealed with thread sealing tape to prevent leakage.
  • All parts of the pressure line must be resistant to internal pressure.
  • All parts of the pressure line must be installed in a workmanlike manner.

METABO HWA 5500 M - Caution! - 1

Danger!

Improper installation and use of parts not resistant to internal pressure can cause the pressure line to break during operation. Risk of personal injury by liquid spurting from the line under high pressure!

5.5 Connection to a pipe system

A permanent installation (e.g. for indoor domestic water supply) is also possible.

- To reduce vibrations and noise, the equipment should be connected to the piping with elastic hose pipes.

5.6 Mains connection

METABO HWA 5500 M - Mains connection - 1

Danger! Risk of electric shock!

Do not operate the equipment in wet environment and only under the following conditions:

  • Connect only to an earthed outlet that is properly installed, earthed and tested.
  • Mains voltage and fuse protection must correspond to those stated in the "Technical Specifications".
  • When operated at pools, garden ponds and similar locations, the equipment must be protected by a residual current operated device (RCD, 30 mA) (DIN VDE 0100 -702, -738 or equivalent applicable local regulations). We recommend the use of RCD's as a general precaution for personal protection.

- When operated outdoors the electrical connections must be splash-proof; they must not be placed in water.

- Use only extension cables of sufficient lead cross section (see "Technical Specifications"). Unroll cable reels fully.

5.7 Filling the pump and priming

METABO HWA 5500 M - Filling the pump and priming - 1

Caution!

After installation, loss of water or priming of air the pump needs to be filled with water. Starting the pump without water causes damage!

METABO HWA 5500 M - Caution! - 1

Note:

The suction line does not need to be filled, the pump is self-priming. However, depending on length and diameter of the suction line it may take some time until pressure has built up.

  1. Remove the water filler plug, complete with gasket.
  2. Slowly pour in clear water, until the pump is filled.
  3. To reduce the time needed for priming you can also fill the suction line.
  4. Replace the water filler plug, complete with gasket.
  5. Open pressure line (open tap or spray nozzle) for any air to escape during priming.
  6. Start equipment (see "Operation").
  7. Close pressure line when only water runs out.

6. Operation

Pump and suction line must be connected and filled (see "Prior to Operation").

METABO HWA 5500 M - Operation - 1

Caution!

Pump must not run dry. Ensure there is always sufficient pumping medium (water) available.

  • If the motor does not start, no pressure is built up or similar effects are evident, switch the equipment OFF – and try to remove the fault (see "Trouble Shooting").
  • If the pump should be blocked by a foreign object or the motor overheat, the motor protection will switch the motor off.

6.1 Commissioning

METABO HWA 5500 M - Commissioning - 1

Note:

The Hydromat

  • starts the pump when water is required (with an open discharge line the water pressure falls below the cut-in pressure);
  • stops the pump approx. 10 sec. after closing the discharge line (with a closed discharge line the water pressure increases);

- stops the pump if no water is pumped to prevent it from running dry (air in suction line).
