3. Productcomponenten
The Einhell GE-SP 3046 RB pump comes with several key components for its multi-functional use:
- Pompeenheid: The main submersible pump with integrated motor and power cable.
- Vlotterschakelaar: Automatically activates/deactivates the pump based on water level.
- Flexibele zwanenhals: Allows for precise water discharge direction.
- Adjustable Aluminum Tube: Provides variable height for water extraction, especially from deep containers.
- Rain Stand: A stable base for positioning the pump and extension tube in rain barrels.
- Integrated Cable Rewind: Convenient storage for the power cable on the pump housing.
- Extension Tube Storage: Dedicated compartment on the pump housing for storing extension tubes.

4. Instellen
Follow these steps to set up your Einhell pump for operation:
- Assemble the Extension: If using the pump for rainwater collection from a barrel, attach the adjustable aluminum tube to the pump's outlet. Then, connect the flexible gooseneck to the top of the aluminum tube.
- Plaats de pomp: Place the pump unit into the water source (e.g., rain barrel, tank, or flooded area). Ensure the pump is stable and fully submerged. The minimum operating space required is approximately 40 x 40 cm, with a pump diameter of 24 cm.
- Adjust the Float Switch: The float switch controls the automatic on/off function of the pump. Adjust its position along the cable to set the desired minimum and maximum water levels for operation. A higher float position will require more water to activate the pump.
- Aansluiten op stroom: Plug the pump's power cable into a properly grounded electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet is protected by a residual current device (RCD) for safety.

5. In bedrijf
Once set up, the Einhell GE-SP 3046 RB pump operates efficiently:
- Automatische bediening: The pump will automatically start when the water level rises to the activation point set by the float switch and stop when the water level drops below the deactivation point.
- Handmatige bediening: For continuous operation regardless of water level (e.g., for complete drainage), the float switch can often be fixed in an 'on' position. Refer to the specific instructions for your float switch model.
- Wateroverdracht: Direct the flexible gooseneck or connected hose to where you want the water to be discharged. The pump can deliver up to 4,600 liters per hour with a maximum delivery height of 11 meters.

6. Onderhoud
Regelmatig onderhoud zorgt voor een lange levensduur en optimale prestaties van uw pomp:
- Schoonmaak: After each use, especially when pumping dirty water, rinse the pump with clean water. Remove any debris or foreign objects from the intake area at the bottom of the pump.
- Controleer op blokkades: Periodically inspect the pump's intake and outlet for any blockages that could impede water flow.
- Kabelinspectie: Regularly check the power cable for any signs of wear, cuts, or damage.
- Winterstalling: Voordat de eerste vorst intreedt, moet u al het water volledig uit de pomp laten lopen om schade door bevriezing te voorkomen. Bewaar de pomp op een droge, vorstvrije plaats.
