8. INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE
1/ Inspection
The proper running of the system must be checked by user once a
month observing at least two starting cycles.
2/ Maintenance
The lifting station has to be regularly maintained by a qualified per-
son. Intervals should:
• Every 3 months for systems installed in commercial premises,
• Every 6 months for systems installed in collective buildings,
• Once a year for systems installed in individual houses.
During maintenance, the following should be done:
a) Check the watertightness of connections by checking pipework to
and from the lifting station.
b) Activate the gate valves, check their smooth function and their
watertightness (grease if necessary).
c) Open and clean up the non return-valve system, check it is func
-
tioning correctly.
d) Clean up the pumping system and its connections, check the im
-
peller and the cutting system (for macerating pumps).
e) Clean up the inside of the collecting tank.
f) Visually check the system’s electrical control box functions.
Once the checks have been made, restart the system in compliance
with the manual instructions to check its proper running.
A report should be issued detailing the checks and any notable
points.
If non-compliances that cannot be solved have been found, the qua
-
lified person in charge of the maintenance work has to immediately
inform the lifting station’s user.
3/ Maintenance contract
It is advised to the users to establish a maintenance contract for
regular maintenance and checking.

Time alarm:
If one of the two motors runs for more than 1 minute: the buzzer is
triggered + the red alarm LED lights up + the other motor starts-up.
2/ General alarm reset

stops, but the red alarm LED remains on until the next normal cycle.
