1. 서론
This manual provides detailed instructions for the installation, operation, and maintenance of the Beckett BK171UL Condensate Pump. This pump is designed for automatic removal of condensate from HVAC equipment, including air conditioners, furnaces, boilers, dehumidifiers, and high-efficiency oil or gas-fired furnaces. It is suitable for condensate water temperatures up to 150°F and acidic condensate.

2. 안전 정보
경고: 감전 위험이 있습니다. 수리하기 전에 전원을 차단하십시오.
- 설치 및 작동 전에 모든 지침을 주의 깊게 읽으십시오.
- 전원 공급 장치가 펌프의 볼륨과 일치하는지 확인하십시오.tag전자(115V).
- 손상된 코드나 플러그로 펌프를 작동하지 마세요.
- 펌프를 물에 담그지 마십시오.
- 이 펌프는 실내용으로만 설계되었습니다.
- 작동 중에는 움직이는 부분에 손이 닿지 않도록 주의하세요.
- 현지 전기 규정에 따라 올바르게 접지되었는지 확인하십시오.
- The pump is equipped with a safety switch. Ensure it is correctly wired to prevent overflow.

4. 설치 및 설정
4.1 펌프 장착
The pump features stainless steel multi-slot mounting tabs for secure installation. Ensure the pump is placed on a level surface. Use the integrated bullseye level on the lid to confirm proper horizontal alignment.

4.2 Condensate Inlet Connections
The pump is equipped with four 1-1/8-inch diameter inlet holes for connecting condensate drain lines from your HVAC equipment. Connect the drain line(s) to any available inlet(s).
4.3 배출 라인 연결
Connect a 3/8" I.D. vinyl tubing (not included) to the 3/8" O.D. barbed check valve. The check valve twists to lock into place on the pump, preventing backflow of discharged water. Route the discharge line to an appropriate drain, ensuring it has a continuous downward slope and is free from kinks or obstructions. The pump can lift water up to 17 feet vertically.
4.4 전기 연결
Plug the 6-ft grounded power cord into a standard 115V electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet is properly grounded and protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) if required by local codes.
4.5 Safety Switch Wiring
The integrated safety switch is designed to shut down the HVAC equipment or trigger an alarm in case of a pump malfunction or high water level, preventing overflow. Consult your HVAC equipment manual for proper wiring of the safety switch. Typically, the safety switch wires are connected in series with the low-voltage thermostat circuit of the HVAC unit.
5. 운영
5.1 Automatic On/Off Operation
The Beckett BK171UL pump operates automatically. When condensate water in the collection tank reaches a predetermined level, the pump will activate, remove the water, and then shut off once the water level drops. This automatic cycle ensures efficient condensate removal without constant monitoring.

5.2 Lift-to-Test Function
A "lift-to-test" tab is provided on the pump lid. Lifting this tab manually raises the float, simulating a high water level and activating the pump. This feature allows for quick testing of the pump's functionality and can also be used to drain the tank for servicing.
6. 유지관리
정기적인 유지관리를 통해 최적의 성능을 보장하고 응축수 펌프의 수명을 연장할 수 있습니다.
- 월별 검사: Visually inspect the pump, inlet, and discharge lines for any blockages, leaks, or damage. Ensure the discharge line is free of kinks.
- 분기별 청소:
- Disconnect power to the pump and the HVAC unit.
- Use the lift-to-test tab to drain the tank, or manually remove any remaining water.
- Carefully remove the pump cover.
- Clean the collection tank, floats, and impeller area to remove any sludge, debris, or mineral deposits. A mild detergent and soft brush can be used.
- 모든 구성품을 깨끗한 물로 깨끗이 헹구세요.
- Reassemble the pump, ensuring the cover is securely in place.
- Reconnect power and test the pump using the lift-to-test tab.
- 배출 라인: Periodically check the discharge line for algae or mineral buildup, especially if the pump is handling acidic condensate. Clean or replace the tubing as necessary.
