How to Install Your PULACO Water Pump
Installing your PULACO water pump is a simple process that can significantly enhance your water feature or aquatic environment. Follow these steps for a hassle-free installation:
- Select the Installation Site: Choose a location within your aquarium, pond, fountain, or hydroponic system where the pump will be fully submerged. Ensure the site is free from excessive debris that could clog the pump.
- Prepare the Pump: If your pump has been stored or shipped, it might contain a small amount of water from testing or lubricant on the inner shaft. This is normal. If you have sensitive aquatic life, consider running the pump in a separate tank briefly.
- Connect Accessories: Attach any provided accessories, such as nozzles or tubing, to your pump. If your setup includes a water pipe, remember that it will affect the pump’s maximum flow rate.
- Submerge the Pump: Fully submerge the pump in your chosen location. Ensure it is placed on a stable surface to prevent vibrations and noise.
- Power On: Once the pump is securely positioned and fully submerged, connect it to the power supply. Always disconnect the pump from the power source before any maintenance or water changes to ensure safety.
- Regular Maintenance: To maintain optimal performance, regularly check and clean your pump, especially if it becomes clogged with debris. For pumps running in environments with potential blockages, consider adding olive oil to the rotor to maintain smooth operation.
How to Use Your PULACO Water Pump
Using your PULACO water pump correctly ensures its longevity and optimal performance in your aquarium, pond fountain, or hydroponic system. Here’s a straightforward guide to help you use your pump effectively:
- Submersion Is Key: Before powering on, fully submerge your PULACO water pump in water. This step is crucial to prevent the pump from burning out. Running the pump without water, known as no-load running, is prohibited as it can shorten the pump’s lifespan and lead to loud noises or damage.
- Normal Water Testing Signs: If you notice a small amount of water inside your new pump, there’s no need for concern. This is a result of the professional water testing each pump undergoes before shipment. It indicates your pump is new and has been quality checked for optimal performance.
- Pre-Use Cleaning: If your pump gets clogged with mud, garbage, sea salt, or other debris, it’s essential to clean it with clean water before use. This ensures that your pump runs smoothly and is free from obstructions that could impair its functionality.
- Sensitive Aquatic Life Considerations: The inner shaft of your pump contains a small amount of lubricant to ensure smooth operation. If you’re raising sensitive fish or aquatic plants, consider running the pump in a separate tank for a short period before introducing it to your main tank. This precaution helps to avoid any potential adverse effects on delicate species.
- Understanding Flow Rate: The advertised 400GPH flow rate is measured without using a pump water pipe. Connecting the pump to a water pipe will result in a reduced flow rate from the maximum 400GPH. Additionally, the pump’s performance can be affected by insufficient power or frequency, so ensure your setup meets the pump’s requirements.
