What to do if Pontec PondoMax Eco 8500 C does not transport fluid?
If your Pontec Water Pump isn't transporting fluid, several issues could be the cause. It might be that the filter housing is clogged, so you should clean the strainer casings. Another reason might be excessively soiled water, in this case you should clean the pump; the pump will automatically switch on again once the motor has cooled down. Also, the pump might be set too low, increase the rotation speed of the pump at the controller. Finally, the impeller unit could be blocked. In that case, disconnect the power supply, remove the obstacle, and then switch the pump on again.
How to fix insufficient delivered quantity in Pontec PondoMax Eco 8500 C Water Pump?
If your Pontec Water Pump is not delivering enough quantity, consider these potential causes: The filter housing might be clogged, so clean the strainer casings. There could be excessive loss in the supply lines, so select a larger hose diameter, adjust the stepped hose adapter to the hose diameter, reduce the hose length to the minimum necessary and avoid unnecessary connection elements. Alternatively, the pump might be set too low, so increase the rotation speed of the pump at the controller.
What to do if Pontec Water Pump switches off after operating briefly?
If your Pontec Water Pump switches off soon after starting, it could be due to a few reasons. The water may be excessively soiled, so clean the pump and it will automatically restart once the motor cools down.
