Use and maintenance instructions.
!
Warning: read the present manual before the assembly and operation of the system
The appliance is not intendend for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsable for their safety. Children
should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance. (EN 60335-1 : 02)
!
Important safety measures – read carefully
The user is responsible for all that concerns the use of the system (electrical, hydraulic systems etc...)
in accordance with the local safety and installation regulations in force. A qualified electrician must
ensure that the required safety measures are present before the system is started. The installation of a
I∆n=30mA circuit breaker on the electrical system is compulsory prior to its use. Check that the
voltage of the mains power supply corresponds to the power supply required by the system. The
indications specified on the rating plate must correspond to those of the electrical system. Do not lift or
move the system with the power supply cable. Check that the power supply cable and plug are intact.
Avoid that the power supply plug and the system itself are subjected to flooding or direct jets of water.
In the event of faults, repair must be carried out by authorised workshops only and only original spare
parts must be used.
We wish to emphasise that we shall not be held responsible for damage caused by:
a) Unsuitable repair carried out by unauthorised technicians.
b) Replacement with non original spare parts.
These indications are also valid for the accessories.
2. General description of the system
The ACTIVE SWITCH unit is used for the management and distribution of rain water. The unit detects
the lack of water in both rain water and mains collection system and corrects it to guarantee that the
system operates correctly (or rather, it never lets the identified users run out of water). The system is
generally limited to irrigation, washing machine, WC flushing tank and floor cleaner systems.
The main objective of the ACTIVE SWITCH system is to give priority to the use of rain water over that
of the mains water. When the rain water contained in the collection tank is insufficient, the control unit
passes to the mains water supply thereby ensuring a flow of water at the extraction points (The water
supplied by the is not drinkable).
The connection between the rain water collection tank and the mains water collection tank, which is
integrated into the system, is selected by a three-way valve fitted to the pump suction.
