Operating Instructions
The Aspen Mini Lime Condensate Pump operates automatically, activating when the condensate level in the reservoir reaches a predetermined point and deactivating once the condensate has been pumped out. The pump's reversible nature allows for flexible integration into various condensate management systems.
The dry contacts provide a signal for system integration, allowing for connection to alarms or system shut-off mechanisms in case of high water levels. Consult your HVAC system's manual for details on connecting these contacts.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and efficient operation of your condensate pump. The Aspen Mini Lime pump is designed for easy access to its filter for cleaning.
- Filter Cleaning: Periodically inspect and clean the pump's filter to prevent blockages from debris and sediment. The frequency of cleaning will depend on the operating environment and condensate quality.
- Reservoir Inspection: Check the condensate reservoir for sludge or algae buildup and clean as necessary.
- Hose and Connection Check: Ensure all hoses and electrical connections are secure and free from leaks or damage.
Always disconnect power to the unit before performing any maintenance or inspection.
Troubleshooting
If the condensate pump is not operating as expected, consider the following general troubleshooting steps:
- No Power: Verify that the pump is receiving power within the specified voltage range (100V-250V AC). Check circuit breakers and electrical connections.
- Pump Not Activating: Ensure the reservoir float switch is not obstructed and can move freely. Clean the reservoir and filter if necessary.
- Pump Running Continuously: Check for blockages in the discharge line or a faulty float switch. Ensure the pump is not air-locked.
- Leaks: Inspect all connections and hoses for proper sealing. Check the pump housing for any cracks or damage.
For persistent issues, it is recommended to consult a qualified HVAC technician.
