sauermann Si-10 Condensate Water Pump
Product Usage Instructions
Safety Warning
Risk of electric shock. Make sure to disconnect the power supply before installation, servicing, or component removal. Do not immerse the pump unit in water.
Installation Overview
The pump unit can be installed within or outside the air conditioning unit. When installed outside, ensure it is not accessible without a tool.
Dos & Dont’s
Avoid prolonged water exposure for the power cable.
Maintenance & Care
Clean and service the pump at regular intervals based on pollution levels in the operating environment. Do not remove the detection reservoir rubber seal to avoid voiding the warranty.
Pump Power Supply
Connect pump Phase and Neutral terminals to the air conditioner unit’s power supply or mains supply to comply with local standards.
Pump Safety Switch
Initial Operational Test
If the pump doesn’t start, check wiring and incoming power supply. Ensure discharge lines are not obstructed, float is not blocked, and inlets/outlets are clear.
FAQ
- Q: What should I do if the pump is running continuously?
- A: Check discharge height, pump capacity, and water flow into the collection tray. Ensure hose connections are secure and airtight.
- Q: How often should I clean and service the pump?
- A: Clean and service at regular intervals based on pollution levels in the operating environment.
SAFETY WARNING
Risk of electric shock. Make certain that the entire power supply to the unit/system is disconnected before attempting to install, service or remove any component. The pump unit must not be immersed in water, installed outside the premises, stored in a damp environment or exposed to frost. This pump has not been investigated for use in swimming pool or marine areas.
CAUTION: This pump has been designed for use with water only. All condensate collection elements (collection tray, connecting tubes, outlets etc…) must be cleaned thoroughly prior to installing the pump.
The pump is supplied with :
- A self-resetting thermal cut-out set at 115°C (239°F).
- A self-extinguishing body case (UL94 VO Material)

Dos & Dont’s
Ensure power cable is not subject to prolonged water exposure.
Maintenance & Care
Pump Power Supply
Connect pump Phase and Neutral terminals to the air conditioner unit’s power supply or to the mains supply to comply with local National Standards. We suggest use of :
- An interconnecting power cable (CE: HO5 VVF 2 x 0.5 mm² ; UL/CSA: 2 x 0.5mm² (AWG20) certified UL2464 – 80°C – 300V) which must be fastened securely to the wall, to avoid inadvertent disconnection during installation and later servicing.
- This connection should be equipped with an electrical isolation device to the Phase and Neutral. The pump must be powered by an electrical circuit protected against overvoltage> 2.5kV.
Pump safety switch
IMPORTANT: Connecting the safety switch is mandatory to avoid any risk of overflowing. For correct connection, refer to the manufacturer’s appliance instructions. The pump is equipped with a NC high water safety switch with a maximum rating of 8A/250V (safety switch CE: 2 x 0.5 mm2, UL/CSA: 2 x 0.5 mm² (AWG20)).This contact may be used to switch off the air conditioner where there is a risk of condensate overflow (after thorough verification by the installer of the customer’s specific application and the resultant electric wiring diagram). Do not break air conditioner’s earth and communication wire.
Initial operational test
- First clean the condensate tray of any debris leftover from the manufacture or unpacking of the air conditioner unit
- Pour slowly 100-250ml (3 – 8oz) of water onto the heat exchanger or into the condensate collection tray (a squeezable plastic bottle, ACC00944, is available)
- Check that the pump unit starts & then stops as the water level decreases.
- Check safety switch by continuing to pour water until the alarm triggers.
The pump must be cleaned and serviced at regular intervals in accordance with the degree of pollution existing wit in the pump operating environment. Void warranty if the detection reservoir rubber seal is removed.
If the pump doesn’t start, check the wiring and incoming power supply.
For any problem, check :
- the discharge lines are neither obstructed nor kinked,
- the float inside the pump unit is not blocked
- the hydraulic inlets nor outlets are not obstructed
Additional checks could be necessary.
- If the pump is running continuously (>1min), check:
- the discharge height is < 10 m, the pump is suitable for the capacity of the air conditioning unit,
- while starting of the pump, the flow of the water poured into the collection tray was not too high (ex: 1l in 30s=60l/h >>20l/h).
If the pump is running continuously and does not suck water check that all hose connections are secure and airtight.
If the pump cycles continually or does not shut off,
- turn the pump off and check water doesn’t return down the discharge line. If water returns down the line you should change the pump.
Before you start cleaning your air conditioning system, you must remove the pump to prevent damage.
