NOTICE: INDICATES SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

WHICH ARE VERY IMPORTANT AND

MUST BE FOLLOWED.

THOROUGHLY REVIEW ALL INSTRUCTIONS

AND WARNINGS PRIOR TO PERFORMING ANY

WORK ON THIS PUMP.

MAINTAIN ALL SAFETY DECALS.

All electrical work must be performed

by a qualiﬁed technician. Always follow

the National Electrical Code (NEC), or the Canadian

Electrical Code, as well as all local, state and provincial

codes. Code questions should be directed to your local

electrical inspector. Failure to follow electrical codes and

OSHA safety standards may result in personal injury or

equipment damage. Failure to follow manufacturer’s

installation instructions may result in electrical shock, ﬁre

hazard, personal injury or death, damaged equipment,

provide unsatisfactory performance, and may void manu-

facturer’s warranty.

Standard units are not designed for use in

swimming pools, open bodies of water,

hazardous liquids, or where ﬂammable gases exist. These

ﬂuids and gases may be present in containment areas.

Tank or wetwell must be vented per local codes.

Only pumps speciﬁcally Listed for Class 1, Division 1

are allowable in hazardous liquids and where ﬂammable

gases may exist. See speciﬁc pump catalog bulletins or

pump nameplate for all agency Listings.

Disconnect and lockout electrical power

before installing or servicing any electri-

cal equipment. Many pumps are equipped

with automatic thermal overload protection which may

allow an overheated pump to restart unexpectedly.

All three phase (3Ø) control panels for

submersible pumps must provide

Class 10, quick-trip, overload protec-

tion.

DANGER

WARNING

CAUTION

PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS

Open all cartons and inspect for shipping damage. Report

any damage to your supplier or shipping carrier immedi-

ately.

Important: Always verify that the pump nameplate Amps,

Voltage, Phase and HP ratings match your control panel

and power supply.

Many of our sewage pumps are oil-ﬁlled. If there are any

signs of oil leakage or if the unit has been stored for an

extended period check the oil level in the motor dome

and the seal housing, if so equipped.

Check the motor cover oil level through the pipe plug on

top of the unit. The motor chamber oil should just cover

the motor. Do not overﬁll, leave room for expansion!

To check the seal housing oil level, where used, lay the

unit on its side with the ﬁll plug at 12 o’clock. Remove

the plug. The oil should be within ½” (13mm) of the top.

If low, reﬁll with an ASTM 150 turbine oil. Replace the

plug.

Oil is available in 5 gallon cans through our distributors.

You can also source oil locally at motor repair shops.

Typical oil brands are: Shell Turbo 32, Sunoco Sunvis

932, Texaco Regal R&O 32, Exxon Nuto 32 and Mobil

DTE Light.

Check the strain relief nut on power cable strain assem-

blies. Power cables should be torqued to 75 in. lbs. for

#16 cables and 80 in. lbs. for all other cable assemblies.

Seal/heat sensor cables, where used, should be torqued to

75 in. lbs.

Warranty does not cover damage caused by connecting

pumps and controls to an incorrect power source (volt-

age/phase supply).

Record the model numbers and serial numbers from the

pumps and control panel on the front of this instruction

manual for future reference. Give it to the owner or afﬁx

it to the control panel when ﬁnished with the installation.

LIFTING OF PUMP

DO NOT LIFT, CARRY OR HANG

PUMP BY THE ELECTRICAL

CABLES. DAMAGE TO THE

ELECTRICAL CABLES CAN CAUSE

SHOCK, BURNS OR DEATH.

Lift the pump with an adequately sized chain or cable at-

tached to the lifting eye bolt. DO NOT damage electrical

and sensor cables while raising and lowering unit.

OPTIONAL GUIDE RAIL

OR LIFT-OUT SYSTEM

In many efﬂuent and sewage basins or lift stations it is

advisable to install the pump on a guide rail system or on

a lift-out adapter to facilitate installation and removal for

inspection and/or service. Most codes do not allow person-

nel to enter a wetwell without the correct protective equip-

ment and training. Guide rails are designed to allow easy

removal of the pump without the need for entry into the

wetwell or need to disturb piping. The guide rail or lift-

out adapter should locate the pump opposite the inﬂuent
