Sikkerhedsoplysninger
Vigtige sikkerhedsinstruktioner: Read all instructions carefully before installation and operation. Failure to follow these instructions can result in serious injury or property damage.
- Elektrisk fare: This pump operates on 230 Volts only. It is not designed for 115 Volts and does not come with a power cord. The pump must be wired into a 230 Volt power source by a qualified electrician in accordance with all local electrical codes. Ensure the power supply is disconnected before performing any installation or maintenance.
- Jording: Always ensure the pump is properly grounded to prevent electrical shock.
- Bevægelige dele: Hold hænder og tøj væk fra bevægelige dele under drift.
- Varme overflader: The pump motor can become hot during operation. Avoid contact to prevent burns.
- Vandtryk: Always relieve system pressure before servicing the pump or plumbing.
- Forslag 65 Advarsel: Dette produkt kan indeholde kemikalier, som staten Californien kender til at forårsage kræft og fosterskader eller anden reproduktionsskade.

- Installationsvejledning (dette dokument)
Opsætning
Proper setup is crucial for optimal performance and longevity of your pump.
1. Placering
- Install the pump on a firm, level surface to minimize vibration and ensure stable operation.
- Locate the pump in a dry, well-ventilated area, protected from freezing temperatures and direct exposure to the elements.
- Ensure adequate space around the pump for ventilation and future maintenance.
2. VVS-tilslutninger
The pump features a 2-inch Female NPT threaded intake and a 1.5-inch Female NPT threaded discharge.
- Use appropriate pipe fittings and thread sealant to ensure watertight connections.
- Install a foot valve or check valve on the intake line to maintain prime.
- Ensure all plumbing is adequately supported to prevent strain on the pump housing.

3. Elektrisk tilslutning
This pump requires a dedicated 230 Volt power source.
- Electrical wiring must be performed by a qualified electrician.
- Connect the pump to a 230 Volt, 10.9 running Amps kredsløb.
- The motor is a Capacitor-run PSC design and is thermally protected.
- Sørg for, at al ledningsføring overholder nationale og lokale elektriske forskrifter.
4. Priming af pumpen
The RL-SPRK200 is designed for one-time priming. No additional priming is required after the initial fill, provided the intake line and foot valve hold prime.
- Fjern spædeproppen, der er placeret øverst på pumpen c.asing.
- Fyld pumpen casing completely with water until it overflows from the priming hole.
- Sæt spædeproppen sikkert på igen.
- Åbn alle udløbsventiler for at tillade luft at slippe ud af systemet.
- Turn on the power to the pump. The pump should begin to draw water and build pressure.
- Allow the pump to run until a steady stream of water flows from the discharge.
- If the pump does not prime within 5 minutes, turn it off, recheck all connections for leaks, and repeat the priming process.

Betjeningsvejledning
Once the pump is properly installed and primed, operation is straightforward.
- Ensure all intake and discharge valves are open before starting the pump.
- Turn on the electrical power to the pump. The pump will start and begin to build pressure.
- Monitor the system for proper water flow and pressure. The pump can deliver up to 76 GPM at 10 PSI and 64 GPM at 30 PSI.
- If the pump runs continuously without building pressure, refer to the troubleshooting section.
- To stop the pump, turn off the electrical power.

Opretholdelse
Regular maintenance ensures reliable performance and extends the life of your pump.
- Regelmæssig inspektion: Periodically inspect the pump and plumbing for leaks, corrosion, or damage. Tighten any loose connections.
- Renhed: Keep the pump area clean and free of debris to ensure proper motor ventilation.
- Vinterisering: In areas subject to freezing temperatures, the pump must be drained completely to prevent damage. Disconnect power, remove drain plugs, and allow all water to escape. Store the pump in a warm, dry location if possible.
- Impeller Check: If performance degrades, inspect the thermoplastic impeller for wear or obstructions.
Fejlfinding
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Red Lion RL-SPRK200 pump.
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Pumpen starter ikke | No power; tripped circuit breaker; faulty wiring. | Check power supply; reset breaker; verify 230V connection. |
| Pumpen kører, men intet vand eller lavt flow | Loss of prime; air leak in suction line; clogged intake; low water source. | Re-prime the pump; check all suction line connections for leaks; clear intake; ensure adequate water supply. |
| Pump not performing to specifications | Forkert voltage (e.g., connected to 115V); worn impeller; motor issue. | Ensure pump is connected to a 230 Volt power source. Inspect impeller; contact support if motor issue is suspected. |
| Overdreven støj eller vibrationer | Loose mounting; cavitation (air in pump); foreign object in impeller. | Tighten mounting bolts; check for air leaks in suction line; inspect impeller for obstructions. |
For more detailed troubleshooting, consult the full owner's manual or contact technical support.
