Overflow valve
– If the hand spray gun is closed, the
overflow valve opens and the high pres-
sure pump diverts the water back to the
pump suction side. Thus the permissi-
ble working pressure is not exceeded.
– The overflow valve is set by the manu-
facturer and sealed. Setting only by
customer service.
Safety thermostat at the pump
The safety thermostat switches off the mo-
tor when the maximum permissible temper-
ature has been exceeded.
