Installing the Float Switches

The Model 112 Single Phase Simplex control panel operates with 3 float switches to activate pump STOP, START, and high-level ALARM functions.

  1. Ensure all power is turned OFF before installing floats in tank. Failure to do so could result in serious or fatal shock.
  2. Label each float and cord end with the provided pairs of STOP, START, and ALARM stickers.
  3. If the floats are not properly mounted and connected in the correct order, the pumps will not function properly.

Mounting the Control Panel

NOTE If the distance to the control panel exceeds the length of the float switch cords or the pump power cord, splicing in a liquid-tight junction box will be required. For outdoor or wet installation, we recommend an SJE Rhombus UL Type 4X junction box.

Floats require free range of motion.
They must not touch each other or any equipment in the pump chamber.SJE

Wiring the Control Panel

  1. Determine conduit entrance locations on control panel as shown. Check local codes and schematic inside the panel for the number of power circuits required.
    CAUTION! Be sure the pump power voltage and phase are the same as the pump motor being installed.

  2. Connect the following wires to the proper terminal positions:

    • incoming power
    • pump
    • float switches
      See the schematic inside control panel for details.

Operation

SJE-Rhombus® Model 112 Single Phase Simplex control panels are designed to operate in a three-float system as standard. When all floats are in the open or OFF position, the panel is inactive. As the liquid level changes and closes the stop float, the panel remains inactive until the start float closes. At this point the pump will start, providing the HOA switch is in the AUTOMATIC mode and the power is ON. The pump will remain ON until both the stop and start floats open (return to the OFF position).
If the liquid level travels beyond both the stop and start floats and reaches the alarm float, the alarm will be activated. The alarm horn can be silenced by pressing and releasing the test/silence switch.SJE RHOMBUS 112 Single

CAUTION! You must use conduit sealant to prevent moisture or gases from entering the panel.
Type 4X conduit must be used to maintain a Type 4X rating of the control panel.

Verify correct operation of control panel after installation is complete.
