Davey RAINBANK WITH SUBMERSIBLE PUMP - Manual (Page 15)

22 15
• Failure to prime the submersible
pump prior to connection of the pump
to rainbank ® can cause an air lock
that may prevent the pump operating
properly.
The following sections of the Type
1 installation instructions are
applicable to Type 2 installations.
Step 2 – Work out the position of your
rainbank ® with regard to distance to
power. the float switch lead is not an
issue here.
Step 4 – align the rainbank ® for easy
fitting to the plumbing and fit Davey wall
bracket if required.
Step 5 – connect rainbank ® to your
submersible pump as per instructions on
page 25.
Step 6 – connect the rainbank ® to the
plumbing as for Installation type 1 on
page 19.
Step 7 – connect all leads as per
Installation type 1 on page 20. there is
no float switch lead as this is fitted to the
submersible pump.
Step 8 – test the unit - page 21.
INSTAllATION TYPE 3
below ground tank with submersible
pump D42a/b & D53a/b
IMPORTANT
• under australian standard 3500
collecting/storing rainwater in a
partially buried tank is considered
a medium level hazard. even though
rainbank ® has a built-in dual check
back flow valve, you may be required
to fit additional backflow protection
valves to satisfy this requirement –
check with your local council as to
their guidelines on rainwater tank
installation and backflow prevention.
there is no need for a separate float
switch as this comes attached to the
submersible pump and does not plug
into the rainbank ® unit.
