STEP 2 PUMP LOCATION (GENERAL)

WARNINGS:

The pump must not be located where the inlet pressure to the pump is

greater than permitted.

Care should be taken to protect pump from frost and freezing,

particularly when located in a loft installation.

Pump Location

If possible site the pump in a location where in the unlikely event of a

water leak, any spillage is contained or routed to avoid electrics or

areas sensitive to water damage.

The motor casing can become very hot under normal operating

conditions, care should be taken to ensure it cannot be touched

during

operation.

Ensure all components in the down-stream system to be pressurised

are suitably rated to accommodate the final system working pressure.

STEP 1 PRE-INSTALLATION CHECK

Your pump set comprises of two major parts, the main pump and pressure vessel. The

pressure vessel is pre-charged with air at the factory to 140 kPa (1.4 bar or 20.3 psi).
This pressure should be checked at the Schrader valve using a tyre pressure gauge and
adjusted if necessary using a car or bicycle pump prior to installation.
