Death or serious personal injury
- Before starting any work on the product, make
sure that the power supply has been switched off
and that it cannot be accidentally switched on.

impurities.
Remedy
Check that the pressure switch functions normally (without
delay) and is adjusted correctly. Check that the minimum
inlet pressure is correct.
The outlet pipe is totally or partly blocked due to incorrectly
adjusted manually operated valve or failure in the magnetic
or motor-operated valve.
Check these valves.
The flow switch is faulty or incorrectly adjusted.
Check/adjust the switch.
Check and replace both main fuses and/or fuses for the
control circuit.
Reset the motor-protective circuit breaker. If it trips again,
the voltage must be checked.
Replace the coil. Check the coil voltage.
Check the control circuit and the contacts in the monitoring
devices (pressure switch, flow switch, etc.).
Check motor and cable. See also section
motor and cable.
Check that the inlet pressure during operation is at least 0.5
bar for BM 4" and BM/BMhp 6", and 1 bar for BM/BMhp 8".
If this is the case, the water supply is OK. Stop and vent the
system. Restart the system as described in section
10. Operation.
If the module is defective, it must be dismantled and
repaired or replaced.
Pull the pump out of the sleeve, and clean the inlet parts.
See section 9. Before starting the booster
Check valves.
Measure the outlet pressure and compare with the
calculated data. Clean or replace the outlet pipe.
