Functional check/ commissioning

4 Functional check/ commissioning
Before commissioning, a functional check must be carried out on all electrical components.
Functional check backwater
1. Check whether all electrical connections have been executed correctly, establish power connection.
2. Remove backwater probe and submerse it in a water glass.
3. Check whether the backwater flap closes (motor noise, lever switches automatically).
4. Make water run through the connected water supply pipes.
5. Check whether the pump starts up and pumps off the water that accumulates on the house side.
6. Shut off the water supply pipes.
7. The system pumps off residual water automatically.
8. Remove the backwater probe from the water vessel and mount it in the system. Check that the backwater
flap opens correctly again (motor noise, lever switches automatically).
Have these steps been finished without water leaks or fault messages, the system can be commissioned.

Maintenance

Before housing covers, plugs and cables (including those on potential-free contacts) are opened they must be
switched voltage-free. Work on electrical components may only be carried out by specialist staff (see 2.2).
5.1

General maintenance information

No climbing on electrical components, pipe connections or cables during maintenance work.
Risk caused by toxic and hazardous vapours, gases and substances (e. g. bacteria, viruses). If the backwater
pumping station is located in an inspection chamber, any necessary work must always be done by specialist
staff (see 2.2).
Risk of drowning in the system chamber. In the event of a flood, a system chamber can fill with water within a
very short time. If there is a risk of water entering, the inspection chamber must not be entered until there is no
danger involved.
After all maintenance work, carry out a function test on the backwater pumping station.
5.2

Maintenance intervals

Maintenance of backwater pumping stations
The backwater pumping station must be maintained regularly by a technical specialist. The intervals must not
exceed:
- 6 months for systems in commercial use
- 1 year for systems in private use
A maintenance protocol with details of all the work carried out and the main data must be prepared for all
maintenance work.
In as far as faults are found which cannot be eliminated, the system operator must be notified immediately in
writing by the maintenance expert, and must confirm receipt of this notification.
Device may not come into contact with mineral or partially mineral lubricants (such as WD-40). Mineral lubricants
can compromise the functionality of the product. Use fully synthetic lubricants only!
