6.2 Choosing the power supply
Depending on the version, the device can be provided with different power supply voltages. Their value is shown on the product identification label.
Electrical connections must be performed with the power supply disconnected and the circuit-breaker open.
When commencing installation make sure that the specifications for the power supply for the installation correspond with those required by the device.
Check that the power supply socket and cable are adequately dimensioned.
Use a power cable that is suitable for outdoor use (example: H05RH-F).
6.3 Open the box
The operation is performed only for a pump with a 5m or 11m delivery head.
Open the cover of the water-proof box and connect as described below. 6.4 Board description
The operation is performed only for a pump with a 5m or 11m delivery head.**

BOARD DESCRIPTION

6.5 Connection of the board
Electrical connections must be performed with the power supply disconnected and the circuit-breaker open.
The operation is performed only for a pump with a 5m or 11m delivery head.
Identify the position of the fuses (FUS1, FUS2, FUS3) and the power supply terminal (J5) on the pump control board. (6.4 Board description, page 8).
6.5.1 Installing the fuse
Depending on the power supply voltage choose the right fuse holder.
The board is supplied with the fuse in the following position: FUS1, 230Vac (6.4 Board description, page 8).
6.5.2 Connection of the power supply line
The power supply cable must be covered by the silicone sheath (01) supplied. The silicone sheath must be fastened with the corresponding cable tie (02).

Fig. 7
Use a suitably sized cable to connect the power supply terminal J5 to the mains.
6.6 Connection of the pump motor
Operation is valid for a pump with 30m (98ft) delivery.
Use the auxiliary terminal (01) located in the pump airtight casing.
Connect the earth cable to the pump casing (earth hole) (02).
Use a suitably sized cable to connect the power supply terminal to the mains.

6.7 Pump installation
Be very careful not to start the pump when the tank is empty.
We recommend filling the tank with water at ambient temperature. If using the pump at temperatures below 3°C (37.4°F) add some glass cleaner antifreeze liquid to the water.
**The antifreeze liquid will cause irreparable damage to the germanium windows. In this case, do not use an anti-freeze liquid, but add ethanol in a 20% solution.
If present, the level switch enables the automatic stoppage of the pump.
6.7.1 Pump with 5m (16ft) or 11m (36ft) delivery
Fill the tank with water and insert it in the metal cage. Insert the pump in the tank and close the cap. The system is ready to be powered.
6.7.2 Pump with 30m (98ft) delivery
Avoid contact with the pump motor. Hot surfaces may cause personal injury if touched.**
Adjust the position of the level switch and the ballast.

Fill the tank with water and insert it in the metal cage. Ensure that the male/female hydraulic joint (01) is inserted correctly. Insert the float in the tank and close the cap. Check the delivery hose coupling for the pump (02) to make sure a small quantity of water comes out.
Unscrew the nut (01). Slide it along the delivery pipe (02). Insert the end of the pipe into the ogive (03). Lock the nut to the coupling.

Information on disposal and recycling

The European Directive 2012/19/EU on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) mandates that these devices should not be disposed of in the normal flow of municipal solid waste, but they should be collected separately in order to optimize the recovery stream and recycling of the materials that they contain and to reduce the impact on human health and the environment due to the presence of potentially hazardous substances.
The symbol of the crossed-out bin is marked on all products to remember this.
The waste may be delivered to appropriate collection centers or may be delivered free of charge to the distributor where you purchased the equipment at the time of purchase of a new equivalent or without obligation to a new purchase for equipment with a size smaller than 25cm.
For more information on the proper disposal of these devices, you can contact the responsible public service.
