Step 1: Carefully check system components to ensure that the components are not missing or

damaged.

Scope of supply:

One circulating pump with, or without, timing function (provided by WILO)

One NSF-61 gasket to be placed into the union end of the pump (provided by WILO)

Installation and operation instructions (provided by WILO)

Step 1: Close the gas valve or shut the power off to water heater.

Step 2: Close the supply water valve to the water heater located, in most cases, above the water heater on

the cold-water inlet to the hot water heater.

Step 3: Drain the water from the hot water pipes by opening a hot water faucet in the house (at the lowest

level), then open the hot water faucet at the highest level in the home to prevent a vacuum from

forming. Let the water drain until it stops flowing. Drain the remaining water from hot water heater

by opening the spigot (located at the bottom of the tank).

Step 4: Disconnect the hot water heater at the hot water discharge. (See below Picture).

Step 5: Using the supplied gasket, insert it into the 3/4" female union fitting and install the union end

into the water heater discharge line (the pump flow arrow on the side of the pump should be

installed so that the pump is pumping away from the hot water heater, toward the faucets).

Connect the water line (out to the faucets) to the 3/4" male NPT discharge of the pump and

tighten. NOTE: Do not overtighten the union connection! Be sure that the pump is not touching

the exhaust vent (chimney) of a gas or oil-fired hot water heater. It is recommended to place a

full-port ball valve upstream of the pump to be able to isolate the pump for servicing.

Step 6: Close faucet on the bottom of tank and lowest faucet in the house.

Step 7: Reopen the supply valve to the hot water heater and allow the water to run out of the faucet at

the highest level of the house until all the air has been completely purged from the piping.

Step 8: Shut the highest faucet off after all the air has been purged.

Step 9: Reopen Gas Valve / power to water heater and restart the water heater. Please refer to

manufacturer of the hot water boiler’s operation manual for specific instructions.

Step 10: Plug the electrical connection into a wall outlet.

FAULT ANALYSIS AND ELIMINATION)

1. Panel description

2. Debugging and menu setting:

Special Note: The timer control is designed to turn the circulator on and off at preset times,

allowing the user to select operation of the circulator during high use periods of the day. If you

want to set the pump working over a specific time period (the timer programming), please

proceed to step 1. If you want the pump to work continuously and no timer needed, skip to

Step 3(Forced operation). In case of a power outage, the timer has a battery that helps keep

the time.

①Time calibration: The timer is based on the 24-hour system, and it automatically switches between

AM/PM when the hour digital lamp changes from 12 to 1 in the time calibration process. Adjust the time

of the pump to the current time; press the “Time calibration” key, the hour area starts flashing,

press the “+/-” key to adjust the hours; press the “Run” key to acknowledge. The minute area

will then flash, press the “+/-” key to adjust the minutes; exit the time calibration function by

pressing the “Run” key or not operating for 20s.

②Timer Calibration: Set the running period of the pump by pressing the “Timer calibration” key.

The dial indicator lamp will start flashing, and press the “+/-” key to adjust the cursor to the

target time period; (the timer is based on the 24-hour system, and it automatically switches

between AM/PM when the cursor passes through the 12 o’clock) Press the “Run” key to turn on

or off the current time period; exit the timer calibration function by pressing the “Timer

calibration” key or not operating for 20s.

③ Forced operation: Press the “Run” key, the set time goes off, and the pump runs automatically

and continuously.
