2. With a new battery installed, depress the switch at the battery clip
connection plug. With the switch activated the green LED light should be glowing and the pumps operating. If not, replace the 10 amp fuse inside the switch by unscrewing the tip cap counter clockwise just below the metal plug tip. PROTECT SWITCH FROM WET WEATHER BY KEEPING IT INSIDE BATTERY BOX LID.
3. Check for kinks or disconnected air hoses. Animals can chew holes in unprotected airhose. If chew holes are evident cut tubing and couple back together. Place all exposed airhose inside a gardenhose or PVC pipe for protection from animals.
4. Make sure the solar panel is facing south in the direct sunlight with NO OBSTRUCTIONS, ie: yourself, passing cars, grazing animals, tree limbs, buildings, etc.
5. CLICK HERE TO SEE AN OPERATIONAL VIDEO OF THE PEC 45 PUMP IN PROPER OPERATION . THE DIAPHRAGMS SHOULD EXPAND AS SHOWN WHEN THE AIRLINE IS PINCHED CLOSED. THIS IS THE STANDARD TEST METHOD FOR DETERMINING IF THE PUMP IS OPERATING PROPERLY.
6. IF DIAPHRAMS DO NOT EXPAND AS SHOWN IN THE VIDEO CLIP ABOVE, EITHER YOU DO NOT HAVE A FULLY CHARGED BATTERY HOOKED UP, OR THE AIRLINE HAS A LEAK OR THE DIAPHRAGMS NEED TO BE REPLACED OR
ADJUST PUMP SPEED BY CLICKING HERE AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS.

*These are calculated flow estimates.
** Each pump inverter has an adjustable potentiometer. This allows you to directly change
the amount of energy used. Lower settings mean less air, more stored energy, less downtime,
and less sun needed to operate 24/7.
*** Deeper diffuser submergence means less air flow, more sun is needed, and additional
batteries are needed to operate 24/7. Use our floating draft tube to fix diffuser submergence,
maximize mixing and oxygen transfer, and insure 24/7 operation with minimum sun and lower storage battery requirements.
