Warning and Alarm conditions

The IntelliFlo 4 alarms and warnings are indicated by flashing LEDs on the control panel. For example, if a “Drive Temperature” warning occurs, the LED will blink two times, then Off, then blink two times. This sequence is repeated until the condition is cleared.

Warning condition: If a warning condition occurs the pump will be continue to run but at a reduced speed. The Green LED executes a sequence of blinks to indicate which alarm or warning has occurred.

Alarm condition: If an alarm condition occurs the pump will drive stop running. The red LED flashes continuously to indicate the presence of an alarm. The alarm LEDs will reset when the condition clears.
