c) Breather Tube
The 4 mm diam. breather tube supplied must be connected to the top of the float detection unit
such that the top of the free end of the tube is situated above the edge of the condensate tray.
d) Installation
Important: Install the float detection unit in a level attitude to ensure correct operation of the
float (see fig.5).
3.3 Condensate Removal Pipe
The 6 mm diam. (1/4 inch braided or clear) condensate removal pipe must be securely connected to
the discharge side of the pump (see exit mark ∇ on cover) with the tie wraps provided (see fig 2, 3
& 4). The waste end of the condensate removal pipe must terminate in an approved drain or waste
water fall tube & may be connected to it with the Sauermann ACC00205 self-sealing fitting (not
provided).
4. POST-INSTALLATION OPERATION TEST
4.1 For models PE 5000 & PE 5100
Start the air conditioning unit & pour a small amount of water into the condensate tray using the
Sauermann ACC00401 priming squeeze bottle (not included) or other means.
Check that the pump is operating correctly & removing water from the tray by pressing the Test
button situated on the side of the pump (see Fig.6). The pump will operate on overrun for three
minutes & stop if correctly installed.
4.2 For model PE 5200
Pour a small amount of water into the condensate tray using the Sauermann ACC00401 priming
squeeze bottle (not included). Check that the pump is operating correctly & removing water from
the tray. If correctly installed, the pump should stop when the water level has decreased.
To check Alarm function, continue to pour water into the tray until the float rises sufficiently to
trigger your chosen alarm feature (switch off compressor, visual or audible alarm...). This will
depend on individual Installer preferences.
