Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION Connect the mains lead to a standard, 230 Volt (50Hz) electrical supply through an approved 13 amp BS 1363 plug or a suitably fused isolator switch. This product may be fitted with a non-rewireable plug. If it is necessary to change the fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. If the fuse cover becomes lost or damaged, the plug must not be used until a suitable replacement is obtained. If the plug has to be changed because it is not suitable for your socket, or because of damage, it must be removed and a replacement fitted, following the wiring instructions shown below. The old plug must be discarded safely, as insertion into a power socket could cause an electrical hazard. The colours of the wires in the power cable must agree with the markings on the plug.  Connect the BLUE wire to the terminal marked N.  Connect the BROWN wire to the terminal marked L.  Connect the YELLOW AND GREEN wire to the terminal marked E or . AN APPROVED RESIDUAL CURRENT DEVICE (RCD) WHICH HAS A TRIPPING CURRENT OF LESS THAN 30 mA MUST BE USED. If you are not sure consult a qualified electrician. WARNING: READ THESE ELECTRICAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE CONNECTING THE PRODUCT TO THE MAINS SUPPLY. WARNING: THE WIRES IN THE POWER CABLE OF THIS PRODUCT ARE COLOURED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE: BLUE = NEUTRAL BROWN = LIVE YELLOW AND GREEN = EARTH Plug must be BS1363/A approved. Always fit Ensure that the outer sheath of Neutral (Blue) Live (Brown) Earth (Green and a 13 Amp the cable is firmly held by the clamp fuse. Yellow)

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com INSTALLATION OF THE PUMP IMPORTANT: The pump MUST NOT be connected to the mains power supply until all hose/pipe installations are completed. These notes are for guidance on how to achieve a proper working system. If any part of the system is to be connected to the mains water supply, ensure that you comply with your local water authority regulations. INSTALLATION LAYOUT The pump must always be installed and operated in a horizontal position using the fixing holes in the base to secure the pump firmly in its operating position. Ensure that there is adequate air circulation around the motor. Avoid situations where there is the risk of water coming into contact with the outside of the pump. Neither the motor or the terminal box are designed to be waterproof. Typical pipework connections are shown. The suction lift i.e. the vertical distance between the water level and the pump, should not exceed the distance specified for your pump. Where the pump is to be a permanent fixture, the fittings to the pump MUST be flexible, i.e. a short piece of hose should be inserted between any rigid metal pipework and the pump. To prevent unnecessary strain or possible distortion to the pump, ensure that adequate support is provided to the hoses and/or pipes. Remember they will be considerably heavier when filled with water. PIPELINE FITTINGS REQUIRED Because of the variety of possible installations, no plumbing accessories are supplied. However, accessories designed specifically for this range of pumps are available from your CLARKE dealer. The performance of your pump will be effected by the diameter of the inlet pipe - any restriction will greatly reduce the flow. We recommend that you use a diameter which is as large as practicable with a suitable reducer for connection to the 1” BSP inlet adapter. The discharge hose should be attached to the outlet adapter (not supplied).

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com A 1” BSP hose adapter will be required for connection to the inlet and outlet port. These are available from your CLARKE dealer. A foot valve and filter should be fitted to the lower end of the suction hose as illustrated, so as to help retain water in the suction system and to prevent the possibility of large foreign bodies arriving at the pump/cartridge filter. A gate valve may be installed in-line on the outlet side of the pump which can be set as required to regulate the flow of water. Do not place any such restriction on the suction side of the pump unless it is an isolator valve in a gravity fed system. THE INLET FILTER AND NRV An inlet filter and non-return valve are supplied loose and need to be screwed to the pump as shown on page 6. The filter bowl is transparent, allowing a visual check as to the condition of the filter cartridge. The filter cartridge is a washable net type with a rated filtration of 60 microns, suitable for the efficient removal of suspended particles such as sand. The filter is NOT designed to filter mud, sludge etc and should hang vertically when installed. PREPARATION FOR USE THE PRESSURE VESSEL This unit operates as a booster pump by utilising an air chamber with a pressure regulator switch to provide a constant pressure at the outlet. The pump will automatically cut in when the water pressure reduces to 3.6 Bar and cut out when the pressure reaches 5 Bar. These pressures are factory set but can be adjusted using the plastic screw on the pressure switch. The pump may continue to operate for a short while after the supply valve is turned off until the cut-out pressure is reached.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com In order for the system to operate correctly it is necessary to pressurise the air chamber between 2 Bar and

2.5 Bar (28-35psi), which is carried out

as follows. Unscrew the protective cap on the end of the air chamber to reveal the air valve and use an air line or foot pump to charge the pressure vessel to the specified pressure. Check the air pressure gauge until satisfied and replace the protective cap when completed. This procedure MUST be carried out before connecting to the water supply. PRIMING THE PUMP When suction lift is used to draw water into the pump it is essential that all connections and hoses are completely air tight or the system will not work. Although the pump is a ‘self priming’ type, it is still necessary to completely fill the inlet side of the pump with water before being started for the first time or if the system has been drained for maintenance/repair. This is carried out as follows:- 1. Remove the small filler plug on the top of the pump chamber and fill the pump with water until all air is expelled. NOTE: If a filter is fitted to your pump it is recommended that you remove the brass plug on top and fill the filter bowl with water. 2. Adjust any valves which may be fitted to the outlet side of the pump so as to ensure as great a flow as possible. 3. Switch on the pump and check for leak s. Water should quickly start to flow through the system. If, depending upon the suction depth, water does not flow, check to ensure:  The inlet pipe is secure and free from defects. Even a pin hole could prevent the pump from drawing water efficiently. This is the most common problem encountered when operating water pumps.  The pump body has been primed correctly and is completely filled with water.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com NOTE: If the pump is gravity or pressure fed, priming will not be necessary, as the pressure of water will purge the system of air. It is essential that all connections and hoses are completely air tight or the system will not work. The pump should never be operated with any delivery valve completely closed. The pressure gauge should be monitored after initial operation to ensure the pressure switch is operating correctly. If the gauge rises above the switch’s pre-set value, switch the pump off and reset the switch. CARE AND MAINTENANCE Protect the pump and pipework from freezing as the formation of ice may cause serious damage. The only maintenance required is a regular inspection to ensure that debris is not blocking the passage of water through the pump. Should sand, chemical or other contaminants come into contact with the pump, flush through with cold clean water as soon as possible. Periodically unscrew the filter bowl and clean out the cartridge and interior of any debris collected. If you suspect the pump is blocked by debris etc, disconnect it from the power supply and back-flush to clear any blockage using a garden hose.  You will need to disconnect the outlet hose to do this. Always keep the pump in a clean condition, checking regularly for loose fastenings or a damaged power cable etc. The pump should not be taken apart by the user if overhaul is required, but should be taken to your nearest CLARKE dealer for repair.
