Compoñentes clave:

• Bomba eléctrica: 0.50 HP motor for efficient water transfer.
• Pressure Tank: 24-liter capacity, pre-charged to maintain stable water pressure.
• Interruptor de presión: Automatically controls pump operation based on system pressure.
• Manómetro: Displays current system pressure.
• Flexible Connection Hose: Connects the pump to the pressure tank.

Configuración e instalación

Proper installation is crucial for the pump's performance and longevity. If you are unsure about any step, consult a qualified professional.

1. Localización: Choose a dry, well-ventilated area, protected from frost and direct sunlight. The pump should be installed as close as possible to the water source.
2. Montaxe: Secure the unit on a stable, level surface to minimize vibration and noise.
3. Conexións de fontanería:
   • Connect the suction pipe from the water source to the pump's inlet. Ensure the suction line is airtight to prevent air ingress.
   • Connect the discharge pipe from the pump's outlet to your water distribution system.
   • Use appropriate fittings and sealants to prevent leaks.
   • Install a check valve on the suction line if the water source is below the pump.
4. Conexión eléctrica:
   • Ensure the power supply matches the pump's specifications (voltage, frecuencia).
   • Connect the pump to a dedicated, properly grounded electrical circuit with appropriate overcurrent protection.
   • All electrical work must comply with local electrical codes and be performed by a licensed electrician.
5. Cebado da bomba:
   • Before initial startup, remove the priming plug (usually on top of the pump body).
   • Encha a bomba casing completely with clean water until it overflows.
   • Volva colocar o tapón de cebado de forma segura.

Instrucións de funcionamento

The Pedrollo PKm 60/24CL operates automatically to maintain constant water pressure.

1. Inicio inicial:
   • After priming, open a faucet in your system to allow air to escape.
   • Turn on the electrical power to the pump.
   • The pump will start and build pressure. Once the cut-off pressure is reached, the pump will stop.
   • Close the faucet. The pump should remain off.
2. Operación automática:
   • When water is drawn from the system (e.g., opening a faucet), the pressure will drop.
   • The pressure switch will detect this drop and automatically start the pump.
   • The pump will run until the system pressure reaches the pre-set cut-off pressure, then it will stop.
   • This cycle ensures a continuous and stable water supply.
3. Seguimento: Periodically check the pressure gauge to ensure the system is operating within expected pressure ranges.

Mantemento

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

• Comprobar fugas: Regularly inspect all plumbing connections for leaks. Tighten or repair as necessary.
• Tank Air Pressure: The pressure tank contains a pre-charged air bladder. Periodically check the air pressure in the tank (when the pump is off and system pressure is zero) and recharge if necessary according to manufacturer specifications (typically 1.5 to 2 bar, or 22-29 PSI, but refer to tank label).
• Limpeza: Keep the pump and motor clean and free from dust and debris to ensure proper ventilation.
• Invernada (se procede): If the pump is in an area subject to freezing temperatures, drain the pump and pipes completely to prevent damage from ice expansion.
• Conexións eléctricas: Periodically check electrical connections for corrosion or looseness.
