Equipment description

3.1

Standard delivery

— Pump with integrated condensate collecting vessel, power
supply cable and alarm connection cable.
— 5 m pressure hose with 10 mm diameter
3.2

Properties

This appliance is for automatically pumping off collected
condensate. This appliance is suitable for use with heat pumps
and ventilation appliances.
— This appliance is only necessary if any condensate arising
cannot be guided to a drain by means of a natural gradient.
PK 10
— This appliance is a monoblock centrifugal pump and has an
overtemperature cut-out with automatic restart once the
temperature has dropped sufficiently.
3.3

Function

The incoming condensate is collected in a collecting vessel. If the
water level exceeds the switching-on point, the pump is switched
on by means of a float. Once the condensate has been siphoned off
to leave only a small residual amount, the pump switches off. An
additional float prevents the collecting vessel from overflowing. On
reaching the alarm activation point, this float activates the alarm
contact. With the alarm contact, a warning lamp or warning sound
can be activated or the connected main appliance switched off.
