8.1 Safety equipment

Overflow valve with 2 pressure switches

When the water flow rate is reduced with the servo compression valve on the hand-held spray gun or with the flow regulator on the pump head, the overflow valve opens and some of the water flows back to the pump suction side.

If the gun is completely closed, enabling all of the water to flow back to the pump suction side, the pressure switch located on the overflow valve switches off the pump.

If the hand-held spray gun is opened again, the pressure switch located on the cylinder head switches on the pump again. The overflow valve is set and lead-sealed at the factory.

Adjustments must only be carried out by customer service.

Safety valve

The safety valve opens when the pressure switch is defective. The safety valve is set and lead- sealed at the factory. Adjustments may only be carried out by customer service.

Low-water safety device

The low-water safety device prevents the burner from switching on when the water is low. A strainer prevents the safety device from becoming fouled and must be cleaned regularly.
