4. Konfigurazioa
Follow these steps to set up your FP300 pump:
- Ponpa ikuskatu: Before installation, visually inspect the pump for any signs of damage.
- Choose an Adapter: Select the appropriate nozzle adapter for your tubing size. The pump typically comes with three different sizes to accommodate various plumbing setups. Screw the chosen adapter onto the pump's outlet.
- Konektatu hodiak: Attach your water feature's tubing to the installed adapter. Ensure a secure connection to prevent leaks.
- Lekua: Place the pump in the desired location within your water feature. The pump is designed for submersible use and should be fully immersed in water. The strong suction cups on the base of the pump allow for secure mounting to the bottom or side of your water feature.
- Egokitu fluxu-kontrola: The pump features an integrated flow control valve. Adjust this valve to achieve your desired water flow rate.
- Potentzia-konexioa: Once the pump is securely placed and connected to the tubing, plug the power cord into a properly grounded GFCI outlet.

5. Ponparen funtzionamendua
Once installed, the FP300 pump is designed for continuous operation. Ensure the water level in your fountain or water feature is always sufficient to keep the pump fully submerged. The pump features an auto shut-off system that activates if the water level becomes too low due to evaporation, protecting the pump from dry running damage.
To adjust the flow rate, locate the flow control valve on the pump and turn it to increase or decrease the water output. This allows you to customize the water flow to suit your specific water feature and desired effect.
For optimal performance and to select the correct pump for your specific water feature application, it is crucial to calculate the Total Dynamic Head (TDH). The TDH is the measure of work your pump will have to perform, considering factors like the width of your waterfall, tubing length, and vertical head height. Refer to the following video for a detailed guide on calculating TDH.
Video 3: This official Atlantic Water Gardens video provides a comprehensive guide on 'Choosing the Perfect Pump' by calculating the Total Dynamic Head (TDH). It explains how to determine the required flow (GPH), select appropriate tubing and multiplier, add equivalent tubing lengths, calculate friction head, and finally, find the TDH to choose the most efficient pump for your water feature.
6. Mantentzea
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and efficient operation of your FP300 pump:
- Iragazkien garbiketa: The pump is equipped with a removable and washable foam filter. Periodically remove the filter and rinse it thoroughly under clean water to remove any debris, algae, or sediment. A clogged filter can reduce pump performance and lead to premature wear.
- Inpultsatzailearen ikuskapena: Over time, the impeller may accumulate debris or show signs of wear. The impeller assembly can be replaced quickly without tools. Refer to the pump diagram for instructions on accessing and replacing the impeller.
- Neguan egitea: In freezing climates, remove the pump from the water feature before the first freeze. Clean the pump thoroughly and store it in a frost-free location, submerged in a bucket of water to keep seals moist, or completely dry if recommended by the manufacturer.
