Operation and Use

The pump's operation is simple and intuitive. After filling the tank with clean water, the pump is connected to the system to be tested using the appropriate 1/4 fitting. By operating the manual lever, the system is pressurized to the desired value, which can be monitored on the precision pressure gauge. The fine adjustment valve allows the pressure to be stabilized exactly at the value required for the test. During the test, any pressure drops that would indicate the presence of leaks in the system can be monitored.

Maintenance and Care

To ensure optimal performance and prolong the useful life of the Rothenberger pump, regular maintenance is recommended, including: cleaning the suction filter after each use, periodic checking of seals, lubricating moving parts according to the manufacturer's instructions, and storing in a dry environment when not in use. When used with hard water, it is recommended to completely empty the tank after use to prevent limescale deposits that could compromise the tool's efficiency.
