Inspection of Existing System
This process involves inspecting the existing system to verify the presence of any electrical floaters, which are preferably removed. The presence of a mechanical floaters in the roof tank should also be checked, and its removal is also preferred.
The valves along the suction and discharge piping must be inspected to ensure they are intact, free of obstructions, functioning correctly, and in the fully open position.
All pipe connections should be examined to ensure they are sound and free of leaks or cracks.
It is essential to confirm the absence of any branches along the pipeline from the ground tank to the roof tank. If any branches are found, they must be completely closed. If their use is necessary, they should be operated manually only.
The pump must be inspected for proper operation, including performance and sound. It should operate smoothly, without strong vibrations or unusual noises. The pump should be checked for any signs of leaks or seepage and verified for adequate pumping performance. The pump specifications must adhere to the following:
- Two-wire electrical connection
- Electrical power not exceeding 2 horsepower
- 220-volt operation
Note: The Tamam device is compatible with surface and submersible pumps only; pressure pumps are not supported.
Device Installation Location
After inspecting the existing system, select an installation location for the device as close as possible to the ground tank and in a readily accessible area. Consider proximity to a power source and the routing of the floater, as detailed in the installation videos, to facilitate installation and connection to the ground tank. The location should be shielded from direct sunlight; a shaded area is preferred.
