KEY

The following symbols have been used in the disCussion:

Situation of general danger. Failure to respect the instructions that follow may cause harm to persons and property.

WARNINGS

Read this documentation carefully before installation. Installation and operation must comply with the local safety regulations in force in the country in which the product is installed. Everything must be done in a workmanlike manner. Failure to respect the safety regulations not only causes risk to personal safety and damage to the equipment, but invalidates every right to assistance under guarantee.

Skilled personnel
It is advisable that installation be carried out by competent, skilled personnel in possession of the technical qualifications required by the specific legislation in force. The term skilled personnel means persons whose training, experience and instruction, as well as their knowledge of the respective standards and requirements for accident prevention
and working conditions, have been approved by the person in charge of plant safety, authorizing them to perform all the neces- sary activities, during which they are able to recognize and avoid all dangers. (Definition for technical personnel IEC 364) The appliance is not intended to be used by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capacities, or who lack experience or knowledge, unless, through the mediation of a person responsible for their safety, they have had the benefit of supervision or of instructions on the use of the ap- pliance. Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.

Safety

• Use is allowed only if the electric system is in possession of safety precautions in accordance with the regulations in force in the country where the product is installed.(for Italy CEl 64/2)
• The power supply cable must never be used to carry or shift the pump.
• Never pull on the cable to detach the plug from the socket.
• If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manu- facturer or by their authorised technical assistance service, so as to avoid any risk.

Failure to observe the warnings may create situations of risk for persons or property and will void the product guarantee.

RESPONSIBILITY

The Manufacturer does not vouch for correct operation of A the electropumps or answer for any damage that they may cause if they have been tampered with, modified and/or run outside the recommended work range or in contrast with other indications given in this manual. The Manufacturer declines all responsibility for possible er- rors in this instructions manual, if due to misprints or errors in copying. The Manufacturer reserves the right to make any modifications to products that it may consider necessary or useful, without affecting their essential characteristics

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The systems Genix are small, compact automatic lifting stations suitable for pumping domestic wastewater and sewage off places in private dwel lings where wastewater cannot be led directly to the sewer by means of a natural downward slope. The WCs and the other utilities connected to this system can be used normally and require minimum maintenance.

The system will operate automatically as soon as the required level of water enters the tank.

APPLICATIONS

Genix systems are indicated exclusively for the processing of domestic waste water containing toilet paper and faecal matter. Applications according to EN 12050-3. WC with horizontal discharge according to standards EN33 or EN37. Installation with direct connection to toilet and in the same room as sani- tary appliances. A second toilet must be available above the backflow level. The product must be fastened to the floor to prevent uplift and turning.

PUMPED LIQUIDS

The product is only suitable for pumping wastewater from a cabinet shower, bidet and/or washbasin as well as sewage from a toilet. Not for public and heavy commercial or industrial use, only limited number of users. Any damage due to foreign bodies (wet wipes, food, cotton wool, tampons, sanitary pads, condoms, hair, cotton cloths, Wood, metal or plastic objects) or due to pumping liquids such as solvents, strong chemical agents and oil will not be covered by the guarantee. Ordinary liquids for cleaning of the appliances connected. pH value: 4-10. Maximum using temperature 50°C The product is designed for flush volumes of 4, 6 and 9 litres. A4-litre flush is permissible only if the amount of solids in the pumped liquid is small.

pumped liquid from freezing

• Make sure that all external pipework is adequately insulated. The discharge pipe must be made of rigid material, such as copper, or of rigid PlVC with solvent-welded joints. To prevent the transmission of vibrations to buildings, make sure that the pipework is thoroughly fixed and that fittings cannot move and are not in contact with building parts.
• Extension pipes between the toilet and the system must not be longer than 150 mm due to the increased risk of clogging.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Make sure that the product is suitable for the supply voltage and frequency available at the installation site.The electrical connection must be carried out in accordance with local regulations. The product must be earthed. The installation must include an earth leakage circuit breaker for protection against earth fault currents. Thisensures protection
when using a Schuko plug or another plug with earth pin.The product must be connected to a mains SWitch with a minimum contact gap of 3 mm in all poles.In case of overtemperature, a thermal switch cuts out the motor and cuts it in automatically when it has cooled sufficiently.

ACCESSORIES

1. An alarm device for acoustic alarm in case of malfunction or high level in the tank is available as an accessory (noise level 75 dB(A)). Product number: 60166477.
2. A kit containing: a hose (length 500mm) with adapter, available as an accessory. Product code 60168126

MAINTENANCE

The system does not require any particular maintenance, but we recom- mend checking the operation and couplings of the pipes at least once a year.

Adjustment of run time
The default setting ensures proper operation in most pipework. If the pipework is particularly long or short, it may be necessary to adjust the run time.

Service instructions
Thanks to the product design, service is easy in case of malfunction or blocked pump. Digits in the following sections refer to the pictures in the appendix “Troubleshooting”.

Before carrying out any service work, remove the fuse, pull out the plug, or switch off the power supply. Make sure that the po wer supply cannot be accidentally switched on.All rotating parts must have stopped moving.The product must only be serviced by trained service personnel.

Impellerlgrinder stuck

• Disconnect the power supply
• Remove the motor cover cap.
• Insert a screwdriver (min. 110 mm) through the plug hole and into the slot of the shaft end.Turn the shaft right and left to free the impeller/ grinder from dirt.

Operation by means of a power drill

• Disconnect the power supply
• If the product cannot be operated by electrical power, the toilet and system can be emptied by means of a power drill.

Pressure switch pipe clogged

• Disconnect the power supply
• Unscrew the screw of the motor cover and remove the cover
• If the water level is above the motor flange, empty the tank by means of the appropriate tap and the hose (supplied).
• Unscrew the screws of the board holder.
• Remove the pressure switch pipe.
•  Clean the rubber hose and check the opening on the tank

Foreign body in tank

• Disconnect the power supply
•  Unscrew the screw of the motor cover and remove the cover
•  If the water level is above the motor flange, empty the tank by means of the appropriate tap and the hose (supplied).
• Unscrew the side screw of the motor ring
• Lift the motor flange to reduce the compression of the O-ring. Insert a screwdriver into the notch underneath the supply cable and press it down.
• Extract the complete motor unit by means of the handles (lift the unit vertically before tilting it).
• Check and clean the tank and impeller/grinder.

Beware of the sharp edges on the grinder. Wear protective gloves.

The carbon filter should be replaced once a year to ensure sufficient filter function. Instead of using the activated carbon filter, the system can also vent through a vent pipe with diameter 20.
