Einführung
This manual provides essential information for the safe and efficient operation and maintenance of your Pedrollo PKm60 Peripheral Booster Water Pump. Please read this manual thoroughly before installation, operation, or maintenance to ensure proper use and to prevent injury or damage.
The Pedrollo PKm60 pump is designed for use with clean water that does not contain abrasive particles and liquids that are not chemically aggressive towards the pump's materials. It is ideal for domestic use, including water distribution in combination with small pressure sets and for garden and allotment irrigation. For optimal performance and longevity, the pump should be installed in an enclosed environment or at least sheltered from inclement weather.
Sicherheitshinweise
WARNUNG: Die Nichtbeachtung dieser Sicherheitshinweise kann zu Stromschlag, Brand, schweren Verletzungen oder Tod führen.
- Always disconnect the pump from the power supply before performing any installation, maintenance, or repair work.
- Ensure the electrical installation complies with all local and national electrical codes. The pump requires a 220V 60Hz power supply.
- Die Pumpe muss ordnungsgemäß geerdet sein, um einen Stromschlag zu verhindern.
- Die Pumpe darf nicht in Betrieb genommen werden, wenn das Netzkabel oder der Stecker beschädigt ist.
- Do not pump flammable, explosive, or corrosive liquids. This pump is designed for clean water only.
- Protect the pump from freezing temperatures. Freezing water inside the pump can cause severe damage.
- Sorgen Sie für ausreichende Belüftung rund um die Pumpe, um eine Überhitzung zu vermeiden.
- Halten Sie Kinder und Unbefugte während des Betriebs von der Pumpe fern.
- For complex installations or if you are unsure, consult a qualified electrician or plumber.

Setup und Installation
Eine fachgerechte Installation ist entscheidend für die Leistung und Lebensdauer der Pumpe. Es wird empfohlen, die Installation von einem qualifizierten Fachmann durchführen zu lassen.
- Standort: Install the pump in a dry, well-ventilated area, protected from direct sunlight, rain, and freezing temperatures. An enclosed environment is ideal.
- Montage: Securely mount the pump on a stable, level surface using appropriate fasteners. Ensure there is sufficient space around the pump for ventilation and maintenance access.
- Rohranschlüsse:
- Connect the suction pipe to the pump's inlet (typically marked "IN" or with an arrow pointing towards the pump). Ensure the suction pipe is airtight to prevent air leaks, which can cause the pump to lose prime.
- Connect the discharge pipe to the pump's outlet (typically marked "OUT" or with an arrow pointing away from the pump).
- Use appropriate fittings (1 inch NPT) and sealants to ensure leak-free connections. Avoid putting strain on the pump's connections from the piping.
- Installieren Sie ein Fußventil mit Sieb am Ende des Saugrohrs in der Wasserquelle, um zu verhindern, dass Schmutz in die Pumpe gelangt und um die Ansaugung aufrechtzuerhalten.
- Elektrischer Anschluss:
- Ensure the power supply matches the pump's requirements (220V 60Hz).
- Connect the pump to a dedicated circuit protected by a circuit breaker or fuse of appropriate rating.
- Verify proper grounding to prevent electrical hazards.
- Vorbereiten der Pumpe: Before initial operation, the pump must be primed.
- Remove the priming plug (usually located on the top of the pump casinG).
- Pumpe füllen casing vollständig mit sauberem Wasser gießen, bis es überläuft.
- Setzen Sie den Ansaugstopfen wieder fest ein.
- Open any valves on the suction and discharge lines.
Bedienungsanleitung
Nach der Installation und dem Befüllen ist die Pumpe betriebsbereit.
- Erstinbetriebnahme: After priming, connect the pump to the power supply. The pump should start immediately and begin pumping water.
- Überwachung:
- Observe the pump during the first few minutes of operation for any unusual noises, vibrations, or leaks.
- Check the pressure gauge (if installed) to ensure the pump is operating within its specified working pressure range (6 bar for PK 60).
- Ensure a steady flow of water. If the pump runs without delivering water, shut it off immediately to prevent damage from dry running. Re-prime the pump.
- Dauerbetrieb: The pump is designed for continuous duty within its specified performance limits. Avoid operating the pump outside these limits.
- Abschalten: To turn off the pump, disconnect it from the power supply. If the pump will be out of use for an extended period, especially in cold weather, follow the winterization procedures in the Maintenance section.
Wartung
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and efficient operation of your Pedrollo pump.
- Regelmäßige Inspektion: Überprüfen Sie die Pumpe regelmäßig auf Anzeichen von Lecks, Korrosion oder Beschädigungen.asing or electrical components.
- Sauberkeit: Keep the pump and its surroundings clean and free from debris. Ensure ventilation openings are not obstructed.
- Foot Valve/Strainer: Inspect and clean the foot valve and strainer regularly to prevent blockages and ensure unrestricted water flow into the pump.
- Winterfestmachung (für kalte Klimazonen): If the pump is installed in an area subject to freezing temperatures and will not be used, it must be drained to prevent damage.
- Trennen Sie die Stromversorgung zur Pumpe.
- Open the drain plug (if present) or disconnect the suction and discharge pipes to allow all water to drain from the pump casing und Rohre.
- Store the pump in a warm, dry place if possible, or ensure it is completely dry before reassembly.
- Professioneller Service: For any internal repairs or complex issues, contact a qualified service technician. Do not attempt to disassemble the motor or pump head beyond basic maintenance.
Fehlerbehebung
This section outlines common issues and their potential solutions. Always disconnect power before troubleshooting.
| Problem | Mögliche Ursache | Lösung |
|---|---|---|
| Pumpe startet nicht. | No power, tripped circuit breaker, faulty wiring, seized impeller. | Check power supply, reset breaker, inspect wiring (by qualified person), check for obstructions in impeller. |
| Die Pumpe läuft, aber es kommt kein Wasser oder der Durchfluss ist sehr gering. | Pump not primed, air leak in suction line, clogged foot valve/strainer, low water level in source, discharge valve closed. | Re-prime pump, check suction line for leaks, clean foot valve/strainer, ensure adequate water in source, open discharge valve. |
