4.2 Condensate Inlet Connection

The pump features four inlet holes with built-in "P" traps. Connect the condensate drain line from your furnace or boiler to one of these inlets.

• Ensure a tight, leak-free connection.
• The integrated P-traps prevent odors and gases from entering the system.

4.3 Discharge Line Connection

Connect the provided 3/8" discharge tubing to the pump's discharge outlet. Route the tubing to a suitable drain location, ensuring a continuous downward slope if possible, or a clear path for the pump to lift the water.

• Avoid kinks or sharp bends in the discharge tubing.
• Secure the tubing to prevent accidental dislodgement.
• The pump includes a check valve to prevent backflow.

4.4 Conexión eléctrica

Connect the pump's power cord to a dedicated 120V electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet is properly grounded and protected by a circuit breaker.

• Non use cables de extensión.
• Verify that the power supply matches the pump's voltage requisitos.

5. Funcionamento

The Diversitech FP-22 operates automatically. When condensate water fills the reservoir to a predetermined level, the internal float switch activates the pump, which then discharges the water through the discharge tubing. Once the water level drops, the pump deactivates.

5.1 Indicadores LED

The pump is equipped with LED indicators to provide status updates:

• LED de alimentación: Indicates the pump is receiving electrical power.
• LED de execución: Illuminates when the pump motor is actively running.
• LED de alarma: Activates if the water level reaches the high-level safety overflow switch, indicating a potential issue.

5.2 Safety Overflow Switch

A built-in safety overflow switch provides an additional layer of protection. If the water level rises above the normal operating range, this switch will activate, typically shutting down the connected HVAC equipment to prevent overflow and water damage. Consult your HVAC system's manual for wiring instructions for this safety feature.

6. Mantemento

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your condensate pump.

6.1 Limpeza periódica

• Desconectar a enerxía: Always unplug the pump from the electrical outlet before cleaning.
• Drain Reservoir: Remove any remaining water from the reservoir.
• Limpeza do depósito: Use a mild detergent and warm water to clean the inside of the reservoir, removing any sludge or debris. Pay attention to the float switch mechanism to ensure it moves freely.
• Inspeccionar tubos: Check the inlet and discharge tubing for blockages or signs of wear.
• Remontar: Reconnect all tubing and plug the pump back into the power outlet.

Perform this cleaning at least once every six months, or more frequently if the condensate quality is poor or the pump is in heavy use.
