Put back the cables into the cable compartment and close the cover. The electrical connection is thus not exposed to the soil, but is instead protectively integrated inside the sprinkler and accessible again at any time. This simplifies any search for faults and any maintenance work can be carried out at any time without any earthwork.
6. Commissioning and Operation 6.1 Potential danger When it starts up, the impact sprinkler rises up out of the housing and builds up full pressure within about 5 seconds. The jet of water emitted can cause injury. For this reason the following guidance must be followed when commissioning and operating the sprinkler: •...
6.2 Commissioning a) Check electrical function: Before any water supply to the sprinkler is opened, activate the coil by means of the controller. If you hear a ‘clicking’ sound from the coil, the electrics are working properly. (The click is produced by the movement of the armature.) b) Ensure that <Manual opening>...
6.3 Setting the sector With this impact sprinkler the sector setting is infinitely variable. You can adjust the area to be watered by pulling or pressing on the relevant end of the top or bottom spring stop. Setting the sector angle Infinitely variable setting is possible by pulling (not pressing) on the relevant end of WARNING! the top or bottom spring stop...
During times of possible frost please ensure that there is no standing water in the sprinkler. The TS120 impact sprinkler has an automatic emptying system. The sprinkler has a discharge valve and can thus be emptied by gravity. To do this, the water is let out at the deepest point of the main pipe, as a result of which the sprinkler empties itself.
8 Maintenance and repair work An unexpected jet of water can cause serious injury. Prior to any maintenance or repair work ensure that the water supply is securely turned off. 8.1 Maintenance • Clean out the inside of the sprinkler housing using an industrial vacuum cleaner or similar (as necessary).
