To install the Clarke 7150710 CBB75 Bore Hole Pump, first ensure that you have secured all necessary permits. Choose an appropriate location for the borehole and drill to the required depth. Lower the pump into the borehole, ensuring it is suspended correctly, and connect it to the power source and plumbing system according to the manufacturer's instructions.
If the pump is not starting, check the power supply to ensure it is properly connected and that the circuit breaker or fuse is not tripped. Inspect the control panel for any error messages. If the problem persists, consult the user manual for troubleshooting steps or contact a professional technician.
Regular maintenance should be performed annually to ensure the pump operates efficiently. This includes inspecting the pump for wear or damage, cleaning any debris from the intake screen, checking electrical connections, and verifying that the motor is functioning correctly.
To winterize the Clarke 7150710 CBB75 Bore Hole Pump, disconnect the power supply and drain the pump completely to prevent freezing. Store the pump in a dry, frost-free location. If the pump is not removed, ensure it is running periodically to prevent freezing.
Improve efficiency by regularly cleaning the intake screen, ensuring the pump is properly sized for your needs, and maintaining clean and unobstructed piping. Additionally, inspect and replace worn parts as necessary to maintain optimal performance.
Unusual noises may indicate debris in the pump, worn bearings, or cavitation. Inspect the pump for any visible obstructions and ensure that it is properly submerged. If noises persist, consult a technician for further diagnosis and repair.
The pump can handle some sand, but excessive sand can cause wear and reduce the pump's lifespan. If your water source contains high sand levels, consider installing a sand separator or pre-filter to protect the pump.
Common signs of a failing pump include decreased water flow, increased energy consumption, unusual noises, and frequent cycling on and off. If you observe any of these symptoms, inspect the pump and consider consulting a professional technician.
To check the motor, ensure it is receiving the correct voltage and inspect the electrical connections for signs of wear or corrosion. Use a multimeter to test the winding resistance and check for any open or short circuits. If you are not comfortable performing these checks, contact a professional.
With proper installation, regular maintenance, and appropriate use, the Clarke 7150710 CBB75 Bore Hole Pump can last between 10 to 15 years. Factors such as water quality, usage frequency, and maintenance practices can affect the lifespan.
