Installation and operating instructions Ixens, Ixens Bloc
• The fan wheel has to be pressed on as far as possible when it is
installed. Only press here in the area of the hub.
Have faults remedied by qualified personnel only! Observe the
safety instructions in chapter 10 "Maintenance" on page 112.
• If the malfunction cannot be rectified, consult a specialist techni-
cian or the nearest customer service centre or representative
office.
For faults, their causes and remedies, see the "Fault/warning mes-
sage" flow diagram in chapter 11.3 "Acknowledge fault" on page 122
and the following tables. The first column of the table lists the code
numbers displayed in the event of a fault.
NOTE:
If the cause of the fault no longer exists, some faults resolve them-
selves automatically.
The following types of errors can occur with differing priorities
(1 = lowest priority; 6 = highest priority):
Error type Description
A A fault exists; the pump stops immediately.
The fault must be acknowledged at the pump.
B A fault exists; the pump stops immediately.
The counter is increased and a timer counts
down. After the 6th fault, this becomes a def-
inite fault and has to be acknowledged at the
pump.
C A fault exists; the pump stops immediately. If
the error exists for more than 5 min, the coun-
ter is increased. After the 6th fault, this
becomes a definite fault and has to be
acknowledged at the pump. Otherwise the
pump restarts automatically.
D Like error type A, but error type A has a higher
priority than error type D.
E Emergency operation: warning with emer-
gency operation speed and activated SSM
F Warning – pump continues to turn
Cause
Fuses defective
Stop valve on the pressure side throt-
tled
