Kindly Reminder
The FLO300 has been developed with utmost care and tested at the factory. It is possible that residual test water may remain in the appliance upon receipt.
Installation Requirements
This appliance must be earthed.
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a qualified person. The cable type is SJT 18AWGx3C. The IP rating of this appliance is IPX4.
The unit is gravity fed from sources like washing machines, showers, etc. It features a built-in pressure switch that detects incoming waste and activates the pump.
The standard outlet connection is 1-1/4" (32 mm), but a 1" (28 mm) connection can be used with a reducer. When connecting pipework, ensure smooth curves to avoid blockages. Avoid 90-degree bends; opt for 45-degree bends instead.

Installation Guidance
Accessories List
- A: Check Valve (X1)
- B: Rubber Tube (X3)
- C: Snap hoop (32mm-50mm) (X3)
- D: Snap hoop (20mm-32mm) (X1)
Step-by-Step Installation
- Install the check valve at the outlet. Tighten with snap hoop (accessory D). Remove the choke plug from the product, install the rubber tube (accessory B), and tighten with snap hoop (accessory C). Outlet pipe can be 3/4", 1", or 1-1/4". Inlet pipes are 1-1/2".
- The product has two water inlets on the other side, covered with choke plugs. When installing, ensure the arrow on the choke plug points downwards, then pull the plug out. Install the snap hoop etc. Unused water inlets should be covered with choke plugs, with the arrow direction turned away.
- Notes and Installation Diagram: For wastewater from showers and baths, ensure the siphon slope is at least 1% (0.4 inches per 40 inches) for gravity flow to the unit. If connecting other sanitary units to the disposal line, install check valves in appropriate waste pipes to prevent backflow. The slope of horizontal components must be at least 1%. Note: Discharge pipe length to the first elbow should be a minimum of 1.6. Installation diagrams demonstrate correct practices including proper inlet/outlet slopes (avoiding horizontal connections), correct pipe bends (preferring 45-degree over 90-degree), secure connections with check valves, and a minimum 6-inch clearance for installations near windows.
- Underground Installation: If installing underground, follow this method. An underground installation diagram shows the pump connected to pipes, emphasizing a 3% downward slope for the wastewater inlet and a minimum 5-inch clearance.
