6. Installation
6.1. General installation information

During the entire process of installation, the device must not be connected to the electrical mains.

The pump should be installed in a dry place with an ambient temperature not to exceed 40\ °C and not to fall below 3\ °C . The pump and the entire connection system have to be protected from frost and other climatic influences.

When installing the device, please make sure that the motor is sufficiently ventilated.
All connection lines have to be perfectly tight since leaking lines may affect the performance of the pump and cause considerable damage. Therefore, please use Teflon tape to seal the contact surfaces between the threaded sections of the lines and the connection with the pump. This use of sealing material such as Teflon tape is the only way to ensure an airtight assembly. Frequent switching on and off of the pump caused by small leakages and high cut-in pressure must be avoided. See also max starting frequency per hour in the technical data table. Avoid when tightening screw excessive force that may cause damage. When laying the connection pipes, you should make sure that the pump is not exposed to any form of weight, vibration or tension. Moreover, the connection lines must not contain any kinks or an adverse slope. Please observe the illustrations, too, which are contained as an attachment at the end of the present operating instructions.
Use a suction line with the same diameter as the pump's suction connection. However, if the suction height is more than 4 m, we recommend using a 25 % larger diameter - with corresponding constriction pieces at the connections.
The inlet of the suction line must have a suction filter. The filter keeps out larger dirt particles in the water that could clog or damage the pump or the pipe system. The non-return valve prevents the pressure from escaping after the pump has been switched off. It also makes it easier to bleed the suction line by filling it with water. The suction filter - i.e. the inlet of the suction line - must be at least 0.3 m below the surface of the liquid to be pumped. This prevents air from being sucked in. In addition, ensure that the suction line is at a sufficient distance from the bottom and banks of streams, rivers, ponds, etc. to prevent stones, plants, etc. from being sucked in.
6.3. Installation of the pressure line
The pressure line transports the liquid to be pumped from the pump to the tapping point. To avoid flow losses, we recommend using a pressure line that has at least the same diameter as the pressure connection of the pump. To facilitate maintenance work, it is also advisable to install a shut-off valve downstream of the pump. This has the advantage that the pressure line does not run empty when the pump is dismantled by closing the shut-off valve.
6.4. Stationary installation

With regard to the electrical connection in the case of stationary installation, please ensure an adequate visibility and accessibility of the plug.
For permanent installation, you should attach the pump to a suitable stable support surface. To reduce vibrations, it is advisable to insert anti-vibration material - e.g. a layer of rubber - between the pump and the support surface. First pre-drill four holes. Use the base plate of the pump as a template to mark the drill holes. Place the device in the desired position and insert a center punch or pin through the drill holes in the base plate to mark the position of the drill holes. Place the appliance to one side and pre-drill the four holes using a suitable drill bit. Place the appliance in position and secure it with suitable screws and washers.
6.5. Using the pump for garden ponds and similar places

Operating the pump next to garden ponds and similar places is generally only admissible if no persons are in contact with the water.
If the pump is used for garden ponds and similar places it has to be operated using a residual current circuit-breaker (FI switch) with a nominal trigger current of ≤ 30mA (DIN VDE 0100-702 and 0100-738). Please ask your electrical services provider whether your installation site complies with this condition.
The pump must not be used in such locations unless it is set up firmly and flood-proof, a minimum distance of two meters away from the border of the water body and secured against falling into the water by a solid holding device. For this purpose the device is to be bolted down firmly to the ground at the fastening points provided (please refer to the chapter titled "Stationary installation").
7. Electrical connection
The unit is equipped with a mains connection cable and a mains plug. It must only be replaced by qualified staff to avoid any danger. Please do not use the mains connection cable to carry the pump, and do not use this cable to pull off the plug from the socket, either. Protect the mains connection cable and mains plug from heat, oil or sharp edges.

The values stated in the technical details have to correspond to the mains voltage. The person responsible for the installation has to make sure that the electrical connection is earthed in compliance with the applicable standards.

The electrical connection has to be equipped with a highly sensitive residual current circuit-breaker (FI switch): Δ = 30 mA (DIN VDE 0100-739).

Only use an extension cable with a cable section (3 x 1.0 mm 2 ) and rubber sheath which at least corresponds to that of the unit's own connection cable (see "Technical data", cable type) and which is labeled with the relevant abbreviation according to the VDE (German Association for Electrical, Electronic & Information Technologies). The mains plug and other connections must be splash proof.
8. Putting into operation
Please observe the illustrations, too, which are contained as an attachment at the end of the present operating instructions. The numeric and other details included in brackets below refer to these illustrations.

Prior to putting the pump into operation for the very first time, the pump housing should be fully vented - i.e. filled with water - even in the case of self-priming units. If this venting is omitted, the pump will not suck in the liquid to be discharged. It is highly recommendable, yet not mandatory, to vent the intake line as well, i.e. to fill it with water.


The pump must only be operated in the performance range indicated on the type plate.

Dry-running - i.e. operating the pump without discharging water - is to be avoided since the absence of water may cause the pump to run hot. This may cause considerable damage on the device. Moreover, this means that very hot water will be enclosed within the system so that there is a hazard of scalding. If the pump has run hot, please pull off the mains plug and allow the system to cool down.

Please do not expose the pump to moisture (e.g. when operating sprinklers). Do not expose the unit to rain, either. Make sure that no dripping connections are located above the pump. The pump should not be used in wet or moist environments. Make sure that the pump and the electrical plug connections are arranged in a flood-proof place.

The pump must not be running with the feeder line closed.

As long as the device is connected to the electrical mains, one must never reach with one's hands into the opening of the pump.
Whenever the pump is put into operation, it must be ensured that it is set up safely and stably. The appliance must always be placed on level ground and in an upright position.
Visually inspect the pump before each use. This applies in particular to the mains connection cable and the mains plug. Ensure that all screws are tight and that all connections are in perfect condition. A damaged pump must not be used. In the event of damage, the pump must be checked by a specialist service technician.
The pump housing must be completely vented when the pump is started up for the first time. Therefore, fill the pump housing completely with water through the filler opening. Check that there are no seepage losses. Close the filler opening again so that it is airtight.
After filling, open any existing shut-off devices in the pressure line, e.g. a water tap, so that the air can escape during the suction process.
Insert the mains plug into a 230 V AC socket. The pump starts immediately after pressing the on/off switch. When the liquid is pumped evenly and without air mixture, the system is ready for operation. Existing shut-off devices in the pressure line can then be closed again. When the shut-off pressure is reached, the pump switches off.
If the pump has been out of operation for a longer period of time, the procedures described must be repeated to restart it.
The pumps have integrated thermal motor protection. In the event of an overload, the motor switches itself off and then on again once it has cooled down. Possible causes and their remedies are listed in the section “Maintenance and assistance in the event of faults”.
9. Function of the pump control / control panel
9.1. General information
The pump control is dependent on pressure and water flow. On the one hand, it causes the pump to switch on or off automatically when the tap or another consumer is opened or closed. On the other hand, the pump control automatically switches the pump off if it runs dry or if there is a lack of water, i.e. if no or too little water is being pumped. This prevents damage to the pump that can occur due to overheating.
9.2. Functionality
When a tap or other consumer is opened, the pressure in the pipe system drops. Once the set switch-on pressure is reached, the pump control unit starts the pump.
After closing the consumer, the pump continues to run until the pressure in the system no longer rises and then switches off.
and then switches off. The maximum achievable pressure of the pump is then applied to the pipe system. In contrast to conventional devices, the pump's inverter technology automatically adjusts the pump's output to regulate the water withdrawal in an energy-efficient manner when demand is high or low.
9.3. Cutting out in the case of dry running or absence of water
In the case of dry-running or the absence of water, the electronic pump control will cut the pump out. This protection feature will prevent another automatic start-up of the pump.
9.4. Setting the pump pressure
The cut-on pressure is preset to 1.5 bar. Experience has shown that this value is ideally suited for most installations. Should any modification of this setting be required, please contact a qualified provider of plumber or electrician services.
In this context, please note that a modification of this kind will only affect the switch-on pressure of the pump, but will not cause any pressure increase inside the pipe system.

10. Maintenance and troubleshooting

Prior to carrying out any maintenance work, the pump must be separated from the electrical mains. If you fail to separate the unit from mains, there is a risk of an inadvertent start of the pump.

We decline any liability for damage caused by inappropriate repair attempts. Any damage caused by inappropriate repair attempts will avoid all warranty claims.
Regular maintenance and careful care reduce the risk of possible malfunctions and help to extend the service life of your appliance.
If the pump is not used for a long period of time, it should be completely emptied. Then rinse the pump with clean water. Allow the pump body to dry out thoroughly to prevent damage caused by corrosion. In the event of frost, water remaining in the pump can cause considerable damage due to freezing.
Store the pump in a dry, frost-proof place.
In the event of malfunctions, first check whether there is an operating error or another cause that is not due to a defect in the appliance - such as a power failure.
The following list shows some possible faults in the appliance, possible causes and tips on how to rectify them. All of the above measures may only be carried out when the pump is disconnected from the power supply. If you are unable to rectify a fault yourself, please contact customer service or your point of sale. Further repairs may only be carried out by qualified personnel. Please note that any damage resulting from improper repair attempts will invalidate all warranty claims and we will not be liable for any resulting damage.
