Frequently Asked Questions - SGP 12 B2 SILVERCREST

How do I start the SGP 12 B2 pump for the first time?

Before first use, ensure the pump is fully immersed in water (minimum water level 10 cm). Connect the outlet hose. Plug the pump into a properly grounded outlet. The float switch should be free to move. The pump will start automatically when the water level reaches the float switch height.

What type of water can be pumped with this model?

The SGP 12 B2 is suitable for pumping clean and dirty water with a maximum particle size of 30 mm. It can handle water temperatures up to 35°C. Do not use for flammable liquids, aggressive chemicals, or saltwater.

Can the pump run continuously for long periods?

The pump is designed for intermittent use (S1 operation). For continuous operation, ensure it is fully submerged and not running dry to avoid overheating. The thermal protection will shut off the motor if it overheats.

Why is my pump not starting?

Check if the power cord is plugged in and the outlet is live. Ensure the pump is submerged enough so the float switch is raised. If the thermal protection has tripped, let the pump cool down. Also inspect the cable for damage and the filter for blockages.

What does the float switch do and how do I set it?

The float switch automatically turns the pump on and off based on water level. You can adjust the switching height by moving the float switch up or down on its cable. The pump starts when the float rises above a certain angle and stops when it falls.

How do I clean and maintain the pump?

After each use, rinse the pump with fresh water to remove debris. Periodically unscrew the filter housing and clean the filter. Check the impeller for damage. Lubricate the shaft with a few drops of oil (if required) before storage. Never use solvents.

Can I extend the power cable?

It is not recommended to extend the cable as it can cause voltage drop and safety hazards. If necessary, use a suitable outdoor extension cord with a sufficient cross-section (at least 1.5 mm²) and a waterproof connection.

What is the maximum particle size the pump can handle?

The maximum particle size is 30 mm. For larger particles, the pump may clog. Always use a pre-filter if pumping heavily contaminated water.

How should I store the pump during winter?

Before winter, clean the pump thoroughly and let it dry completely. Store it in a dry, frost-free place. Ensure no water remains inside the pump to avoid damage from freezing.

Are replacement parts available for the SGP 12 B2?

Yes, SilverCrest offers spare parts such as impellers, seals, and float switches. Contact the SilverCrest service center or check the manual for part numbers. The pump is designed to be repairable by qualified personnel.

• Once the inflatable item is completely empty, set the on/off switch (3) to the "0" position to switch off the electric air pump.
• Remove the valve adapter.
• Remove the plug from the power outlet.

Maintenance / cleaning

The electric air pump does not contain any parts that require maintenance. Ensure that the electric air pump does not become dirty. Keep the DEFLATE air inlet (1) and the INFLATE air outlet (2) clean.
