Additional Manufacturer Narrative
Follow-up #2: the pump has been returned and evaluated by product analysis on 15-nov-2017 with the following findings: a review of the black box showed multiple loss of prime warnings with low zero and non zero forces.The pump was run for 24 hours and the loss of prime issue was not duplicated.The force calibration testing passed.The pump was opened to find moisture on the force sensor plate.Unrelated to the original complaint, the battery compartment was cracked from the case seal to the grip pad.
