INSTALLATION OF THE PUMP

IMPORTANT: The pump MUST NOT be connected to the mains power supply

until all hose/pipe installations are completed.

LOCATION

Install the pump in a horizontal position i.e. with the outlet connection facing

vertically upwards. Mount the pump on blocks or a purpose built platform to

protect it from flooding.

Ensure there is adequate air circulation around the motor. The pump should

be installed in a dry, well ventilated enclosure, sheltered from rain and with an

environment temperature not higher than 40°C.

The pump is provided with rubber feet (7), and the plastic covers must be

prised off to insert the holding down bolts for fixed installations.

Always place the pump as close as possible to the water to be pumped but

be positioned so as to avoid the possibility of immersion. The power supply

should also be a safe distance away. If in doubt, please contact your

electrician and refer to national regulations.

Avoid locating the pump where it could become drenched with water as it is

not designed to be totally waterproof.

Ensure the pump & its power cable do not create a safety hazard for people

walking past it. The length of the power cable on the pump limits the distance

from the power source. If an extension cable is required, ensure it is

compatable with the cable supplied.

CONNECTIONS AND HOSES

To prevent unnecessary strain ensure that adequate support is provided to the

hoses and pipes. They will be considerably heavier when filled with water.

Always use a pipe diameter at least equal to, or greater than, the diameter of

the pump connections.

For suction depths of over four metres or with long horizontal stretches. Use an

intake hose with a diameter larger than that of the intake aperture of the

pump.

To prevent the formation of air pockets, the inlet hose must slope slightly

upwards towards the pump.

If the suction pipe is made of a flexible material always check that it is of the

reinforced vacuum-resistant type to avoid collapse due to suction.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com

In case of a fixed installation, it is

recommended that you fit a non-

return valve on both sides of the

pump. This allows closure of the line

upstream and/or downstream from

the pump, useful for service and

cleaning operations or for periods in

which the pump is not in use.

To capture small particles in

suspension an inlet filter should be

fitted on the suction pipe to protect

the integrated filter (1).

SUCTION LIFT OR GRAVITY FEED

SUCTION LIFT

It is possible to draw water up from a

sunken pool or well.

• The vertical distance between

the foot valve and the pump

should not exceed 8 metres.

It is essential that all connections and

hoses are completely air tight,

otherwise the system will not work.

GRAVITY FEED

The pump can draw water from an

above ground tank.

A foot valve/filter should be fitted to

the end of the suction hose, (as

illustrated), to help retain water in the

suction system.

ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

Connect the mains lead to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply

through an approved 13 amp BS 1363 plug or a suitably fused isolator switch.

If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or

because of damage, it must be removed and a replacement fitted, following

the wiring instructions shown below. The old plug must be discarded safely, as

insertion into a power socket could cause an electrical hazard.

The colours of the wires in

the power cable must

agree with the markings on

the plug.

• Connect the BLUE wire

to the terminal

marked N.

• Connect the BROWN

wire to the terminal

marked L.

• Connect the YELLOW

AND GREEN wire to the terminal marked E or .

AN APPROVED RESIDUAL CURRENT DEVICE (RCD) WHICH HAS A TRIPPING

CURRENT OF LESS THAN 30 mA MUST BE USED.

If you are not sure, consult a qualified electrician.

WARNING: READ THESE ELECTRICAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

THOROUGHLY BEFORE CONNECTING THE PRODUCT TO THE MAINS

SUPPLY.

USING THE MODE SELECTION BUTTON (B)

1. To unlock the choice of functions press “MODE” button for 5 seconds.

2. Press “MODE” to scroll through the various operating modes or parameters

to be modified or to enable certain functions.

• While scrolling through the modes, the LED of the function selected

will flash.

• On returning to AUTO_MODE the active functions will be highlighted

by the relative LED lighting up.

THE OPTIONS ARE AS FOLLOWS:

1) AUTO MODE: the pump will run in automatic mode see page 12.

2) MANUAL MODE: the pump works in manual mode see page 12, and the

user can decide when to switch it on or off by using the “SET” button. SET-ON

switched On / SET-OFF switched Off.

3) ANTI-LEAKAGE: This function is for protection against leakage and can be

enabled or disabled. The factory setting is disabled.

When enabled, if the pump is started up more than 6 times in 2 minutes, it will

be stopped and the error will be indicated by means of the red LED flashing

slowly on “ALARM”.

To enable ANTI-LEAKAGE, press “MODE” until the LED flashes, then press SET

until the “ON” LED is lit up. To disable ANTI-LEAKAGE press SET until the LED

indicates OFF.

Once the leak is repaired, reset the alarm, if still present, see alarm reset on

page 12.

4) CUT-IN: This is the pressure setting (always enabled) at which the pump is

activated. It can be set between 1.5 and 3.0 bar, (factory setting 1.8 bar). The

pump is activated even if the flow is less than a minimum value of 1.5 l/min,

(factory-setting).

5) CUT-OUT: This is the pressure setting (disabled) above which the pump stops.

This is a factory setting for “CUT-IN” + 1 LED, but can be increased to 6 bar.

To enable CUT OUT press “MODE” until the LED corresponding to CUT-OUT

flashes then press SET to select the required value. Exit the setting by pressing

“MODE”. To disable the function, press “SET” until the LED indicates OFF.
