5.3 Venting the pump
Fig. 8 Venting the pump
The pump is self-venting through the system. You do not have to
vent the pump before startup.
Air in the pump may cause noise. This noise ceases when the
pump has run for a few minutes.
You obtain quick venting of the pump by setting the pump to
speed III for a short period. How fast the pump is vented depends
on the system size and design.
When you have vented the pump, i.e. when the noise has
ceased, set the pump according to the recommendations. See
section 7. Control functions.
You cannot vent the system through the pump. See section
5.4 Venting the heating system.
