USER MANUAL BP 5 Home Kärcher

• only for BP 3 Home Check max. air pressure in the storage tank prior to commissioning. If necessary, refill up to 2.0 bar with a commercially available air pump with the system switched off / zero-pressure state. Secure device against slipping off (fix it with screws, if needed). Remove the plug. Screw the connection adapter in the suction con- nection of the pump (inlet). Tighten manually. Screw check valve onto connector adapter at the suction connection. Tighten manually. Connect the vacuum-proof suction hose with inte- grated backflow stop on the suction side. (available as optional accessory) Screw the connection adapter in the delivery con- nection of the pump (outlet). Tighten manually. Connect delivery line. Illustration Unscrew the lid of the filling nozzle and fill in water till it overflows. Screw on the lid on the filling nozzle. Open existing shutoff valves in the pressure pipe. Note Even the smallest of leakage leads to malfunctioning. In case of leaks, seal all connections with a suitable sealant (e.g. Teflon tape) to prevent malfunction due to leakage or air intake.

Use suitable screws to screw the bases onto a level surface. In case of a permanent installation the installation of a flexible component such as a flexible pressure compen- sating hose (see optional accessories) on the pressure side is recommended. This has the following benefits: More flexibility during set-up and installation. Noise reduction, since no vibrations are transferred to pipes. In case of small leaks, the pump does not switch as often. Note To facilitate subsequent emptying and pressure release of the system, we recommend the installation of a stop- cock between pump and pressure line. (not included in delivery) By closing the shut-off valve when emptying the pump you can prevent water from escaping from the pressure line. BP 3 Home: Insert the mains plug into the socket. Switch the appliance on at the appliance switch. BP 5 Home: Insert the mains plug into the socket. Note Pump starts running immediately. Wait till the pump sucks in and pumps uniformly, then shut the gate valve in the pressure pipe. The pressure switch deactivates the motor when the shut-off pressure is reached. The storage boiler is now full; the domestic water supply sys- tem is ready for operation. If there is a lack of supplied water, the switch-off pres- sure is not reached; the pressure switch cannot shut off the appliance. The water in the pump head will then heat up. In case of overheating, the power supply is interrupted by a thermal switch, to avoid damage to the pump from overheating. The supply of power is switched back on after the appli- ance has cooled off. Note The cooling down time until the motor starts up again can be up to 150 min. We recommend installing a dry run protection unit to regulate the lack of water situation (see special acces- sories). CAUTION System is under pressure! (For pressure details see chapter on technical specifica- tions) BP 3 Home: Switch the appliance off at the power switch. Disconnect the main plug from the socket. BP 5 Home: Disconnect the main plug from the socket. DANGER Turn off the appliance and remove the mains plug prior to any care and maintenance works. Open the connected shutoff valves to relief pressure and reclose them. The system is free of pressure. Rinse the pump after every use if you use to trans- port water with additives. Check the pressure of the air filling in the storage boiler every six months. If necessary, refill up to 2.0 bar in switched off / zero-pressure state (discon- nect device, open the water cock). Illustration The air valve is located under the cover. Turn in anti- clockwise direction to unscrew the cover. 몇 CAUTION In order to prevent accidents or injuries, keep in mind the weight of the appliance during transport (see Spec- ifications). Secure the appliance against shifting and tipping over. 몇 CAUTION In order to prevent accidents or injuries, keep in mind the weight of the appliance when selecting a storage lo- cation for it (see Specifications). Fully drain the appliance prior to storing it. Store the appliance in a frost free area.

First pull out the plug from the mains before carrying out any tasks on the machine. Fault Cause Remedy Pump runs but does not transport Air in the pump see chapter “Preparing the Appliance” Air does not come out on the pressure side Open tap on pressure side No water available. Check the water reservoir. Pump does not run or suddenly comes to a standstill during oper- ations Power supply interrupted Check fuses and electrical connections Thermal protection switch in the motor has switched off the pump as it was over- heated. Pull out the mains plug, let the pump cool down, clean the suction area, prevent dry running Note The cooling down time until the motor starts up again can be up to 150 min. Pump switches itself off and back on Thermal protection fuse has switched the pump off to protect from overheating or turned it back on after it has cooled off. In order to prevent a repetition, the system should be checked for leaks and sealed. Motor starts up imme- diately after switch off Pressure is not retained in the system Check connections including sealings and control the water outlet. The smallest of leakages can affect the operation adversely. Air pressure in the storage boiler is too low. Fill storage boiler with 2.0 bar. See chapter “Main- tenance” Backflow valve does not close properly Check backflow valve on suction side. Membrane in pressure tank is defective Replace membrane Pump transports is re- ducing or transported quantity is too low Suction filter or check valve (special ac- cessories) contaminated Clean suction filter or check valve (special acces- sories) The quantity transported by the pump de- pends on the transport height and the connected periphery Keep max. flow height, see technical data. If nec- essary, select a different hose diameter or hose length. Vibrating sound while taking out water Membrane in pressure tank vibrates Noise caused by operations and the noise can be reduced by reducing the pressure in the air filling of the storage tank.
