Opsætning og installation
Tjekliste før installation:
- Sørg for, at sumpen basin er ren og fri for snavs.
- Verify that a properly grounded 115V AC electrical outlet is available near the sump basin.
- Have necessary plumbing fittings (e.g., check valve, discharge pipe) ready.
Installationstrin:
- Placer pumpen: Place the sump pump on a solid, level surface at the bottom of the sump basin. Ensure it is not resting directly on dirt or gravel.
- Connect Discharge Pipe: Attach a discharge pipe (minimum 1-1/4 inch diameter) to the pump's discharge outlet. It is recommended to use a check valve in the discharge line to prevent water from flowing back into the sump basin når pumpen slukker.
- Juster flydekontakt: The tethered float switch must be positioned so it can move freely without obstruction. Ensure it can activate the pump at the desired water level and deactivate it before the pump runs dry. The tether length determines the operating range.
- Sikker ledningsføring: Route the power cord away from any moving parts and ensure it is not pinched.
- Tilslut til strøm: Once all connections are secure and the pump is properly positioned, plug the pump into a grounded 115V AC outlet.
- Test drift: Fyld sumpen basin with water to verify the float switch activates the pump and water is discharged correctly. Ensure the pump shuts off when the water level drops.
Operation
The Everbilt 1/2 HP Submersible Sump Pump operates automatically via its tethered float switch. When the water level in the sump basin rises and lifts the float switch to its activation point, the pump will turn on and begin discharging water. Once the water level drops and the float switch returns to its lower position, the pump will turn off.
- Ensure the pump is always submerged when operating to prevent damage from dry running.
- Regularly check the sump basin for debris that could interfere with the float switch or clog the pump.
- The pump is designed for intermittent use, not continuous operation.
Opretholdelse
Regelmæssig vedligeholdelse sikrer din sumppumpes levetid og pålidelige drift. Afbryd altid strømmen, før du udfører nogen form for vedligeholdelse.
- Månedlig inspektion: Visually inspect the pump, power cord, and float switch for any signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Ensure the float switch moves freely.
- Clean Sump Basin: Periodically remove any debris, silt, or sediment from the sump basin that could clog the pump or interfere with the float switch.
- Test drift: Manually fill the sump basin with water to ensure the pump activates and deactivates correctly.
- Vinterisering (hvis relevant): If the pump is in an area subject to freezing temperatures and will not be used, remove it from the basin, clean it, and store it in a warm, dry place. Drain all water from the pump and discharge pipe to prevent freezing damage.
Fejlfinding
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Pumpen tænder ikke. | No power; Float switch obstructed or defective; Motor overload. | Check power supply and circuit breaker; Clear float switch path; Allow motor to cool and reset. |
| Pump runs but does not discharge water. | Discharge pipe clogged; Impeller clogged; Check valve stuck closed; Air lock. | Clear discharge pipe; Clean impeller; Inspect/replace check valve; Disconnect power, lift pump slightly, then reconnect to release air. |
| Pumpen kører kontinuerligt. | Float switch stuck in "on" position; Check valve leaking; Pump undersized for inflow. | Clear float switch path; Inspect/replace check valve; Consult a professional for pump sizing. |
| Pumpen cykler for ofte. | Float switch set too low; Leaking check valve; Water back-flowing into sump. | Adjust float switch for wider operating range; Inspect/replace check valve; Check for leaks in discharge system. |
