The pump must only be operated in the performance range indicated on the type plate.
Dry-running - i.e. operating the pump without discharging water - is to be avoided since the
absence of water may cause the pump to run hot. This may cause considerable damage on
the device.
Please make sure that the electrical plug connections are in the flood-proof area.
As long as the device is connected to the electrical mains, one must never reach with one's
hands into the opening of the pump.
Please inspect the pump visually prior to each use. This applies in particular to the mains connection line and the
mains plug. Make sure that all screws are firmly tightened, and verify the perfect condition of all connections. A
damaged pump must not be used. In any case of damage, the pump has to be inspected by qualified service
staff.
Each time the pump is put into operation, please make sure that the pump is set up securely and firmly standing.
The pump can be operated optionally in automatic or manual operation. However, pumping the liquid down to the
minimum intake level as indicated in the technical data is only possible with manual operation. With automatic
operation, the lowest attainable residual water level corresponds to the cut-out level specified in the technical
data.
7.1.

Automatic operation

Especially in automatic operation, pleased take care that the pump is positioned vertically so
as to ensure the free motion of the integrated float switch. Please assure yourself that the
pump will cut out as the water level decreases and reaches the cut-out level.
The pump is equipped with an integrated float switch which will cause the unit to cut in or cut out as a function of
the water level. If the water level reaches or drops below the cut-out level, the pump will cut out. If the water level
reaches or raises above the starting level, the pump will cut in. The cut-in and cut-out levels are indicated in the
technical data and cannot be altered.
For automatic operation, please set the lever on the pump to the "AO" position.
To put the unit into operation, please plug the mains plugs into a 230V AC socket. If the water level has reached
or exceeded the cut-in level, the pump will start to run immediately.
To stop the operation of the pump, please pull the mains plug off the socket.
7.2.

Manual operation

In manual operation, the integrated float switch is deactivated. This means that the pump will run permanently as
long as it is connected to the electrical mains. This increases the risk of dry running which may cause severe
damage to the unit as a result of overheating. So please do make sure that the pump is only operating as long as
there is enough liquid left to be discharged by it. For manual operation, please set the lever on the pump to the
"M" position.
To start the pump, please insert the mains plug in a 230 V AC socket. The pump will cut in immediately.
To stop the operation of the pump, please pull the mains plug off the socket.
7.3.

Thermal motor protection

The electrical pumps of the T.I.P. INTEGRA series are equipped with an integrated thermal motor protection
feature. In the case of overload, the motor will switch off independently and on again after cooling down. For
possible causes and their elimination, please refer to the "Maintenance and troubleshooting" section.
8.

Maintenance and troubleshooting

Prior to carrying out any maintenance work, the pump must be separated from the electrical
mains. If you fail to separate the unit from mains, there is a risk of an inadvertent start of the
pump.
We decline any liability for damage caused by inappropriate repair attempts. Any damage
caused by inappropriate repair attempts will avoid all warranty claims.
Observing the conditions of use and the ranges of application of the present device will reduce the risk of possible
operational malfunction and contribute to extend the lifetime of your unit. Sand and other abrasive matters
contained in the liquid discharged will speed up the process of wearing and tearing and accelerate the drop in
performance.
If the unit is operated properly, it will not require any maintenance.
To remove stubborn contamination or to clean the float, the pump pedestal (8) can be removed by loosening the
screws (9) located at the bottom of the pump. Subsequently, you can clean the pump wheel (3) and the pump
