Using It on the Job

1. Isolate Power: Always begin by isolating power to the evaporative cooler at the main switchboard and applying a lockout tag to prevent accidental startup.
2. Drain & Remove: Drain the cooler's water reservoir completely and carefully remove the old pump and any associated tubing.
3. Position New Pump: Position the new Coolbreeze SP500 pump in the reservoir, utilising its quick-fit assembly bracket, and ensure it's securely seated.
4. Reconnect & Check: Reconnect any necessary power wiring and water lines. Double-check all connections for tightness to prevent leaks.
5. Test Operation: Refill the cooler's reservoir and restore power. Observe the pump operation, ensuring proper water flow over the pads and no unusual noises or vibrations.
6. Final Check: Once satisfied, replace all access panels and return the system to normal operation.

Limitations & Safety Notes

• Always isolate power before working on any electrical components of an evaporative cooler to avoid electrocution.
• Ensure the supply voltage (240V 50Hz) matches the pump's specifications before installation.
• Follow the specific evaporative cooler manufacturer's installation guidelines in conjunction with these instructions.
• Regularly inspect and clean the pump's integrated filter basket to prevent blockages and maintain optimal water flow.
• This pump is designed for circulating water in evaporative cooling systems only; do not use it for other fluids or applications.

Tradie Pro Tip: Before you re-fill the cooler, give the sump a good clean-out. All that sediment and scale can block up your new pump's filter basket quick smart. A clean base means a longer-lasting pump and better cooling performance.

Pair With

Pair with new evaporative cooler filter pads and a replacement float valve to ensure your unit is running at peak efficiency all season long. Consider an antimicrobial treatment for your cooler's water to keep things fresh.
