Proper installation is key for your TIP EJ 5 Plus Deep Well Pump to function effectively and last. Here's a straightforward guide, mirroring the essential steps from the manual:
-
General Installation Advice:
- Always disconnect the pump from the power supply before starting the installation.
- Protect the pump and all its connections from freezing temperatures.
- Make sure all your connections are completely sealed to prevent any leaks.
-
Installing the Intake Line:
- Use a flexible suction hose that has the same diameter as the pump's suction port.
- Attach an intake filter or strainer to the intake line. This will keep out any large debris.
- A check valve (non-return valve) is also necessary. This prevents pressure loss when the pump stops.
-
Setting Up the Pressure Line:
- Your pressure line should be at least as wide as the pump's pressure port.
- Put a check valve downstream from the pump outlet to protect against pressure spikes.
-
Using and Installing the Lowering Rope:
- Choose a lowering rope that's strong enough, like one made of stainless steel or synthetic material.
- The rope you use should be able to handle five times the weight of the pump and the filled pressure line.
- Secure the lowering rope, the connection cable, and the pressure line together at regular intervals so they don't get tangled.
-
Making the Electrical Connection:
- The pump comes with a power cable and plug. If you need to replace them, get help from a qualified professional.
- Ensure the electrical connection is properly earthed and use a residual current circuit-breaker.
- If you need to use an extension cable, make sure it's at least as thick as an H07RN-F cable.
Following these steps will help you correctly install your TIP EJ 5 Plus Deep Well Pump, ensuring it runs efficiently. For more detailed advice or if you run into problems, check the instruction manual or contact the manufacturer's service line.
