OVERVIEW

SUITABILITY

The CLARKE range of submersible pumps are suitable for discharging pools,

ponds, fountains, pits and any waste water drainage. They can handle foul

water containing suspended material as listed in the specification. The pumps

are not suitable for handling inflammable, corrosive, explosive or dangerous

liquids.

THE FLOAT SWITCH

The float switch enables the pump to stop and restart automatically as the

surrounding water level changes. As the water level rises, the switch will float

and start the pump. As the water level falls, so will the float switch, until it stops

the pump. Float switches are factory set to provide the correct ON-OFF

switching mode. This makes them suitable for permanent or semi-permanent

installations, eg. installations where it is necessary to maintain water at a

particular level without an operator in attendance.

THE THERMAL CUT-OUT

The pump is provided with a thermal overload cut-out, so that in the event

that the pump becomes overheated (due to becoming blocked etc) it will

shut off automatically. When the blockage has been cleared, the thermal

cutout will cool down and re-set and the pump can be re-started.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com

CONNECTION AND POSITIONING

1. Screw the outlet elbow and

stepped adaptor supplied, onto

the outlet of the pump as shown.

2. Connect the outlet adaptor to

the largest diameter hose

available, as any restriction will

reduce capacity and put

unnecessary strain on the motor.

• The stepped adaptor fitting

allows for connection of 32 mm

(1¼”), 25 mm (1”), or 19 mm hoses which should be secured with a hose

clamp.

3. Ensure that the hose diameter is

as large as possible if a long run of

discharge hose is being used.

• Suitable hoses are available

from your local Clarke dealer.

POSITIONING THE PUMP

1. ALWAYS raise and lower the pump

using a rope attached to the

lifting handle.

2. Place the pump in a vertical

position resting on a firm, flat

surface in the area that you want

to drain. If there is sediment in the

operating area, the pump should

be placed vertically on house bricks, or similar but ensure they are not likely

to collapse. Never install the pump on sand, silt, mud or ground that is likely

to collapse.

3. Keep the pump clear of sediment by standing it on a platform or brick or

suspending from a rope attached to the handle if the pump is to be used

where there may be silt or mud etc (e.g. garden ponds).

4. Ensure the pump is positioned with adequate space so that the movement

of the float switch is not restricted - recommended minimum area of 50 x

50cm.

5. Allowance must also be made for the overall width of the pump including

the outlet elbow on one side.

Parts & Service: 020 8988 7400 / E-mail: Parts@clarkeinternational.com or Service@clarkeinternational.com

6. Ensure the float switch has

sufficient room to operate

correctly if used in a confined

space such as a shaft or sump.

• The pump should only be

placed in a sump which is large

enough not to restrict the

movement of the float switch.

• When the pump is being used

in a permanent or semi-

permanent installation, a non-

return valve should be fitted in

the delivery hose. Suitable

hoses and valves are available

from your Clarke dealer.

USING THE PUMP

1. Plug in the pump and switch on the power supply.

• Always use a high sensitivity residual current device (RCD) which has a

tripping current of less then 30mA.

• The pump will only run where there is sufficient water for the float switch

to rise and activate the pump.

2. If required, the range of operation of the float switch can be manually

adjusted by positioning the float switch cable within the retaining clip at

the top of the pump. The switch will operate through its full range if left

hanging free.

3. Run the pump continuously or remove from the water and store in a frost

free location if the water is likely to freeze.

4. Never run the pump dry. Ensure the pump switches off when water has

stopped flowing.

• The pump should be able to clear water down to a residual depth of

approx 5mm, provided the float switch has been raised to keep the

pump running. In this situation, air and residual water may be seen

escaping from the vent valve.

5. Disconnect from the power supply when the water has been pumped out.

Avoid running the pump continuously if the discharge hose has become

obstructed and water is not flowing.

AUTOMATIC THERMAL OVERLOAD

These pumps are fitted with automatic thermal overload protection. If the

pump overheats due to an obstruction in the pump, or pumping warm water

for example, it will shut off automatically.

Switch the pump OFF at the mains supply. Check for blockages and allow the

motor to cool (at least 5 minutes) before attempting to restart, by which time

the cut-out will have reset.

CLEANING, MAINTENANCE & STORAGE

The pump should require no maintenance other than regular inspection and

cleaning.

1. Inspect the pump prior to use and do not use the pump if there is any

damage to the mains power cable or to the float switch or its connecting

cable.

2. Check pump regularly to ensure the inlet is clear of leaves or other debris. It

can be cleaned out either by back-flushing or by removing the base plate

(after undoing the retaining screws) and cleaning out by hand.

3. If the pump has been used for pumping swimming pool water or salty

water likely to leave chemical residues, it should be flushed through with

clean water before storage.

4. When the pump is not being used for extended periods, clean and dry it

thoroughly and store in indoors. if the pump is left in water, it should be run

at least once a week to prevent it from seizing up.

If the pump shows signs of wear or damage, contact your CLARKE dealer for

advice. Do not attempt to repair the pump yourself, as you may damage the

waterproof seals and invalidate your guarantee. Repairs should be carried out

by your local CLARKE dealer, or contact the CLARKE Service Department on

020 8988 7400.

ACCESSORIES

A wide range of accessories is available from your nearest CLARKE dealer,

including hoses and hose adaptors.

WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE PUMP IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE

POWER SUPPLY BEFORE CLEANING OR PERFORMING MAINTENANCE
