V. OPERATION
5.1- Intended use
- JET pumps (whether alone or with booster tank) are designed to draw clear water.
- They must be installed in a dry, ventilated place, protected from weather and excessive heat/cold.
- The maximum suction height should not exceed the value mentioned on the specifications table.
- Properly installed, your pump will operate with maximum efficiency and will give you complete
satisfaction.
- The pump is designed for routine private household uses (in the house or in the garden) such as gardening,
irrigation systems, increased water pressure distribution in non-food, pumping water tanks...
- The pump must not be used for operations not described in this manual.
It should NOT be used in particular for:
- supllying systems and sprinkling equipment for public gardens,
- continuous operation (for ex.: water circulation,...)
- pumping corrosive liquids, easily flammable, aggressive, explosive or dangerous liquids.
- pumping seawater (salted water), waste water, water containing solids, sand or abrasive particles in
suspension, water containing corrosive substances in general.
- pumping water intended for human consumption or any other food liquid.
- pumping water / liquid having a temperature above 35°C.
NOTE:
- This pump is not intended for cleaning and other pool maintenance operations.
- The pump must not be used in outdoor fountains, garden ponds and similar places.
- The pump is not designed for industrial, artisanal and / or commercial applications (eg, in construction sites,
public parks, sports fields ...).
Additional information for BOOSTER PUMPS
The booster optimizes the water supply by limiting repeated on/off, and especially allows maintaining a
constant pressure in the system.
5.2- Operation
- Proceed with the suction and discharge lines connections described in chapter 4 above.
- Press the power source On/Off switch.
Additional information for BOOSTER PUMPS
- The pump starts and stops automatically when the pressure in the vessel is approximately 3 bar.
- Slowly open the discharge valve. The pump begins to discharge, without its engine running, through the
water supply in the tank.
- When the pressure in the tank drops below about 1.5 bar, the pump starts and remains on until the pressure
of the tank reach about 3 bar.
- To stop the pump cycles, slowly close the discharge valve.
- Always follow these instructions to avoid creating excess pressure in the system and avoid "water hammer"
effect.
