DeaeratingFaultCodes
FaultCode Description Auto/ManualReset
Error Incorrect password (Code) entered. AutoResetHigh Pressure High system pressure, audible alarm sounds. The Safety
Solenoid closes. This alarm will self-reset when the system pressure returns to normal, audible alarm can be silenced by pressing “mute”.
AutoReset
Insufficient Vacuum The low water switch has been activated, either a leak has occurred or the air non return valve has failed or is missing. ManualReset
Pump FAIL Pumps have failed, the pump failure relay closes. The boiler interlock opens, the audible alarm sounds. ManualReset
Timeout
Either the pumps have run for too long or the pressure has not reached the required start pressure for the pump within the time limit. Check the internal filter on the PRV and the solenoid valves for obstruction.
ManualReset
Service The unit has been in service for 12 months and a routine inspection is due (User option in menu). ManualReset
