Electrical Connection; Installation - Pentair WCFIX PLUS Betriebsanleitung

ENGLISH
APPLICATION
The WCFIX PLUS is used to dispose of
sewage from a directly connected toilet,
even if this lies below the local backflow
level.
∙ The number of people using the toilet
should be small, and an additional
toilet, installed above the backflow
level, must be available for them to
use.
∙ Only domestic wastewater, without
any harmful substances as defined
in EN 12056, may be disposed of.
∙ The unit operates in combination
with a with cistern that supplies a
flush volume of at least six litres.
Proper operation cannot be guaran-
teed if the flush volume is less than
six litres. This may be the case if an
economy flush button is used, for ex-
ample.
∙ A maximum of one wash basin, one
shower and one bidet can be con-
nected in addition to the toilet. All of
the fixtures must be installed in the
same room as the WCFIX PLUS. If
no additional units are to be served,
a flush volume of 9 litres is recom-
mended for the toilet.
∙ In accordance with EN 12050-3, the
connection of other appliances, such
as washing machines, kitchen sinks,
dishwashers or bathtubs, is not per-
mitted.
When installed correctly and used for
its intended purpose, the unit meets
all the protection requirements of EMC
Directive 2014/30/EU and is suitable for
domestic use and for connection to the
public power supply network.
It is ideal for use in renovation or con-
version works in domestic situations
where the installation of a toilet would
be desirable. The unit pumps the sew-
age and toilet paper from the toilet into
an existing foul water drainage pipe.
When installed below the backflow lev-
el, the unit also provides backflow pro-
tection. This requires the installation of
a vertical backflow prevention loop in
the pressure pipe.
ATTENTION!
∙ The unit must never be used for the
disposal of hygiene articles, paper
towels, moist toilet tissues, left-over
food, solvents, chemicals, grease
etc.
∙ The flow velocity in the pressure pipe
must be at least 0.7 m/s.
∙ The operating limit with regard to
manometric head is 0.6 bar (6.0 m
head).

Permissible temperature of the pumped
fluid: 35°C, operating mode: intermit-
tent operation S3, 30% (3 minutes oper-
ation – 7 minutes rest)
When installing the system in
bathrooms or shower rooms,
German VDE regulation 0100
Part 701 must be observed.
The WCFIX PLUS is frost resistant
down to a temperature of –20 °C when
stored in dry conditions. Once the unit
is installed, however, the residual wa-
ter in the system must not be allowed
to freeze.
ELECTRICAL
CONNECTION
Only qualified electricians may
carry out electrical works to
the pump, connector plugs or
controls.
ATTENTION! Never put the mains plug
into water! If water gets into the plug,
this can cause malfunctions or damage.
The relevant standards (such as EN
standards), country-specific regulations
(such as VDE in Germany), and the reg-
ulations of the local power supply com-
panies must be observed.
Observe the operating voltage (see the
type plate)!
Only connect the pump to
sockets that have been in-
stalled properly in accordance
with the regulations and are fitted with
at least a 10 A (delay) fuse and a residu-
al-current circuit breaker (≤ 30 mA).
No additional motor protection is re-
quired, since the system has an inte-
grated coil thermostat.
Unacceptably high temperatures and
long periods of continuous operation
cause the thermostat to shut down the
motor.
After the thermostat
switched off the system, you
must pull out the mains plug
before remedying the fault, because the
device switches itself on again automat-
ically.
System controls
The WCFIX PLUS has a level controller
that switches the pump on and off de-
pending on the level of the water.
The start-up delay and shut-off delay
are set via DIP switches on the control
circuit board.
The mains-dependent alarm sounds to
indicate a malfunction if the pumping
operation continues for longer than 43
seconds. A potential-free fault indicator
contact (5 A/250 V) on the circuit board
can be used to relay the alarm.

INSTALLATION

For front-wall installations
If the toilet is wall-mounted, the WCFIX
PLUS is installed immediately adjacent
to the toilet module. The unit is con-
nected to the outlet bend of the front-
wall installation via a 15º bend with a
nominal diameter (DN) of 100 mm and
high temperature resistance (HT). The
WCFIX PLUS can be installed to the left
or right of the toilet.
For free-standing toilets
The WCFIX PLUS is fitted directly to
standard toilets (complying with DIN
1387 or 1388) with a horizontal out-
let. The vertical distance between the
mounting surface and the centre of the
outlet branch must be at least 180 mm.
ATTENTION! If a connecting pipe is fit-
ted between the WCFIX and the toilet,
this will result in malfunctions. This
method of installation does not comply
with the approval of the Deutsches In-
has
stitut für Bautechnik (the German ap-
proval body for construction products
and types of construction).
The distance between the wall and the
end of the connection branch of the
toilet must be at least 220 mm if the
WCFIX PLUS is to be installed without
moving the toilet.
ATTENTION! The connection pipes from
the shower and washbasin must be fit-
ted with a so-called back-up bend, in-
