For information
The Breaktank of SEM water treatment B.V.is a universal breaktank that is specially designed for the
supplementation (adding fresh water) of swimming pools. This break tank ensures the necessary
interruption between (drinking) water and swimming pool water. Under no circumstances can water
flow from the pool back into the water supply network, not even when the pressure on the grid
ceases. The SEM Breaktank meets the following standards:
EN1717
Backflow, siphoning and counter pressure are the greatest risks for the quality of drinking water. The
new European standard EN1717 is set up to prevent contaminated water entering the distribution
network of drinking water.
EN1377
A free outlet type "AB" provides a vertical and permanent interruption between the lowest point of
the feed opening and the critical level. The overflow must be non-circular and must be able to
discharge the maximum inlet flow rate under error conditions at positive pressure. Backflow of waste
water (sewage water) into the drinking water network is therefore also excluded

The SEM Breaktank can be used for the supplementation of a pool. By default, the SEM break tank is
equipped with a universal level control which can measure 1 level. A float switch is supplied to
measure the level in the skimmer or measuring tube. The lift pump has a capacity of 5 to 45 l / min at
11 to 28 m and is protected against dry running. The capacity of the break tank is about 0.8 m³ / hour
with the built-in mechanical float to fill the tank. Optionally, a solenoid valve is available which
increases the filling capacity to 1.5 m³ / hour.
The SEM Breaktank is supplied as standard with a mechanical float to fill the tank and the capacity
is 0.8m³ / hour. See attachment accessories and parts.
This manual contains all information to commission and maintain a SEM Breaktank.
Because the maximum make-up capacity depends on the connection size of the water pipe and the
required head, there may be differences between the capacities mentioned in this manual and the
capacity in your situation.

1. Introduction
The SEM Breaktank has been developed for refilling fresh water (supplementation) in a swimming
pool. The water level of the pool is measured with a level switch in eg the buffer, skimmer or level
pipe. If the level is too low, the pump will start and fresh water will be added. The construction of the
Breaktank is such that swimming pool water can never flow back into the pipeline network
(mandatory by the water company). The water supply network must never be operated by a closed
system connected to the pool. This must always be done by means of an open connection.
Specifications of the Breaktank:
• Complete interruption between pool and tap water according to European standard;
• Built-in level control for 1 pool.
• Switch-on delay 15 sec. and switch-off delay of 10 sec. for the level control. Both are adjustable.
This prevents oscillation of the delivery pump due to wave action in the pool.
• Clear display shows status (Run, Standby, Error);
• Simple menu structure (service and setup menu) with LED display and 3 push buttons;
• High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS) reservoir with a capacity of 15 liters;
• Level measurement of the reservoir by means of a pressure sensor. Level is readable in
millimeters in service menu.
• Mechanical float ½ "(approx. 0.8 m³ / hour) or solenoid valve ½" to fill the reservoir (approx. 1.5
m³ / hour).
• Low level protection to protect the feed pump against dry running.
• The self-priming feed pump (0.37kW) has a capacity of 5-45 l / min
with a head from 10 to 28m (with a counter pressure of 1 bar approx. 2.5 m³ / hour). The pump
is equipped with a non-return valve and pressure gauge. Pump is switched with an electronic
relay,
so no danger of sparking or sticking contacts.
• Print is equipped with a relay that switches on water demand. External systems can be
connected to this (max 3A / 230V).
• Glass fuse for electronics (250V / 160mA T) and for pump (250V / 3A T)
• Does not overflow circular, 40x140mm;
• Overflow connection ¾ "F;
• Empty connection with plug ½ ".
• Filling connection 1/2 "F PVC;
• Screw connection for all cabling with removable plugs.
• The Breaktank may only be used for cold water applications, maximum water
temperature 20 ° c.

2. Control
The Breaktank works completely automatically. Once in operation, the make-up can only be stopped
by shutting down the supply tap if necessary, or by switching off the supply voltage. Of course, the
float switch placed in the pool can also be "manually" influenced by placing it higher or lower relative
to the water level. This will shift the switching point and will eventually change the level of the bath.
The level control is equipped with a switch-on and switch-off delay so that the feed pump can never
"shuttle".
It is also important that the feed pump always runs with a back pressure of at least 1 bar. This is
necessary to let the pump run in its Q / H curve and does not suffer any damage due to overload or
cavitation. The pump pressure can be read on the mounted pressure gauge.
2.1 Display and buttons
The SEM Compact Breaktank is equipped with a digital display. The display shows all relevant
information.
Switch on the power supply:
After switching on the mains voltage, the break tank will show the software version on the display for
3 seconds. Changed settings will always be remembered after a power failure.
Normal operation:
The operating mode is shown on the display, followed by the speed of the pump in%.
StBy = Standby, break tank is standby

Alarm notifications:
All alarm messages can be reset by pressing and at the same time, as soon as the fault
has been rectified.
Status light:
The status light is green when the pump is in operation. In the event of a fault, this light will flash red.
= green, pump in operation
= red flashing, fault, the fault code on the display indicates the nature of the fault.
ERR1= water level in the break tank is high, tank is running
ERR2= water level in the break tank is low, pump is blocked against running dry.
ERR3= settings in setup menu are incorrect. Adjust the values of HA, HB, HC, LA, Lb or
