Correct Electrical Installation; Safe Operation - Oase Promax 20000 Gebrauchsanleitung

Correct electrical installation

− Electrical installations must meet the national regulations and may only be carried out by a qualified electrician.
− A person is regarded as a qualified electrician, if, due to his/her vocational education, knowledge and experience, he
or she is capable of and authorised to judge and carry out the work commissioned to him/her. Working as a qualified
person also includes the recognition of possible hazards and the adherence to the pertinent regional and national
standards, rules and regulations.
− For your own safety, please consult a qualified electrician.
− The unit may only be connected when the electrical data of the unit and the power supply coincide. The unit data is
to be found on the unit type plate or on the packaging, or in this manual.
− Ensure that the unit is fused for a rated fault current of max. 30 mA by means of a fault current protection device.
− Extension cables and power distributors (e.g. outlet strips) must be suitable for outdoor use.
− Ensure that the power connection cable cross section is not smaller than that of the rubber sheath with the
identification H05RN-F. Extension cables must meet DIN VDE 0620.
− Protect the plug connections from moisture.
− Only plug the unit into a correctly fitted socket.

Safe operation

− Never operate the unit if either the electrical cables or the housing are defective!
− Do not carry or pull the unit by its electrical cable.
− Route all cables such that damage is excluded and nobody can trip over them.
− Never open the unit housing or its attendant components, unless this is explicitly required in the operating
instructions.
− Only use original spare parts and accessories for the unit.
− Never carry out technical modifications to the unit.
− Only have repairs carried out by customer service points authorised by OASE.
− The power connection cables cannot be replaced. When the cable is damaged, the unit or the component needs to
be disposed of.
− Only operate the unit if no persons are in the water!
− Keep the socket and power plug dry.
Installation
Only use the unit in its horizontal position and ensure stable installation on a firm ground. The unit must be positioned
below the water surface level. Attach the receiver flood protected at least 2 m away from the edge of the pond. For this
purpose, use the supplied ground stake or suspend the receiver by means of 2 screws. Do not open the receiver
housing for this purpose. Ensure that the receiver is not exposed to direct sunlight. Fasten a traction rope to the
strainer top casing through the round openings. This allows you to pull the pump out of the water, if necessary.
Start-up
Attention! The pump must never run dry.
Possible consequence: The pump will be destroyed.
Protective measure: Check the water level at regular intervals. Always place the unit below water level.
Attention! Sensitive electrical components.
Possible consequence: The unit will be destroyed.
Protective measure:
− Do not connect the unit to a dimmable power supply.
− Do not operate the unit with a timer.
Attention! The installed temperature monitor automatically turns the pump off, if it is overloaded. The pump
automatically switches on again once the motor has cooled down. Risk of accident!
