4. Specificaties

5. Installatie en installatie

5.1 voltage Selectie

The RL-SWJ100 pump is dual voltage (115/230 Volts) and comes factory-set for 230 Volts. Ensure the pump's voltage setting matches your power source. To change the voltage, remove the cover from the motor terminal box and slide the voltage indicator switch to the desired setting (115V or 230V) using a flat screwdriver.

5.2 Pressure Tank Installation

If installing with a pressure tank, ensure the tank's pre-charge pressure is set correctly before installation. The pre-charge pressure should be 2 PSI below the pump's cut-in pressure setting (e.g., 28 PSI for a 30 PSI cut-in). Make all pipe connections according to local plumbing codes. Ensure the pipe size from the tank to the house is the same as the pipe size from the pump to the tank.

6. Gebruiksaanwijzing

6.1 De pomp vullen

Before starting the pump for the first time or after it has been drained, it must be properly primed. This involves filling the pump casing and suction line with water to ensure it can create the necessary suction to draw water from the well. Refer to the detailed priming instructions in the full owner's manual for your specific setup.

6.2 Eerste inbedrijfstelling

After priming and ensuring all connections are secure and leak-free, restore power to the pump. The pump should start and build pressure. Monitor the pressure gauge to ensure it reaches the desired cut-off pressure (e.g., 50 PSI for a 30/50 switch). The pump will automatically shut off once the cut-off pressure is reached.

7. Onderhoud

• Regelmatige inspectie: Periodically check all connections for leaks and ensure the pump is securely mounted.
• Controle van de druktank: Verify the pressure tank's air charge annually.
• Winterklaar maken: In freezing climates, drain the pump and piping completely to prevent damage from ice expansion.
• Schoonheid: Houd de pompomgeving schoon en vrij van vuil om een ​​goede ventilatie te garanderen.

8. Probleemoplossing

This section provides general guidance for common issues. For detailed troubleshooting steps, consult the complete owner's manual.

Veelvoorkomende problemen:

• Pump runs but no water: Check for proper priming, ensure the suction line is submerged, and inspect for air leaks in the suction line.
• Pomp draait te vaak: This often indicates a problem with the pressure tank (low air charge, waterlogged) or a leak in the system.
• Pomp start niet: Verify electrical connections, check the circuit breaker, and ensure the voltagDe schakelaar staat correct ingesteld.
• Lage druk: Check for clogs in the piping, inspect the impeller for damage, and verify the well's water level.
