Recommendations and Warnings

Receiving inspection
Open all cartons and inspect for shipping damage. Report any damage to your supplier or shipping carrier immediately.
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 1/2” (13mm) of the top. If low, refill with an ASTM 150 turbine oil. Replace the plug.
You can source oil locally at motor repair shops. Typical oil brands are: Shell Turbo 32, Sunoco Sunnis 932, Texaco Regal R&O 32, Exxon Unto 32 and Mobil DTE Light.
Check the strain relief nut on power cable strain assemblies. Power cables should be torqued to 75 in/Ibs. for #16 cables and 80 in/Ibs. for all other cable assemblies. Seal/heat sensor cables, where used, should be torqued to 75 in/Ibs.
Warranty does not cover damage caused by connecting pumps and controls to an incorrect power source (voltage/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.
> Optional Guide Rail
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 personnel to enter a wedel without the correct protective equipment and training.  Guide rails are designed to allow easy removal of the pump without the need for entry into the wedel or need to disturb piping. The guide rail or lift out adapter should locate the pump opposite the influent opening preventing stagnate areas where solids can settle. The basin or pit must be capable of supporting the weight of the pump and guide rail. The pit floor must be flat.
> Piping
Discharge piping should be no smaller than the pump discharge diameter and kept as short as possible, avoiding unnecessary fittings to minimize friction losses.
Install an adequately sized check valve matched to the solids handling capability of the pump to prevent fluid backflow. Backflow can allow the pump to spin backwards and may cause premature seal, bearing, shaft wear. If the pump is turning backwards when it is called on to start the increased torque may  cause damage to the pump motor and/or motor shaft.
Install an adequately sized gate valve AFTER the check valve for pump, plumbing and check valve maintenance.
Important – Before pump installation.
Drill a 3/16″ (4.8mm) relief hole in the discharge pipe. It should be located within the wedel, 2″ (51mm) above the pump discharge but below the check valve. The relief hole allows any air to escape from the casing.
Allowing liquid into the casing will insure that the pump can start when the liquid level rises. Unless a relief hole is provided, a bottom intake pump could “air lock” and will not pump water even though the impeller turns.
All piping must be adequately supported, so as not to impart any piping strain or loads on the pump.
The pit access cover must be of sufficient size to allow for inspection, maintenance and crane or hoist service.
> Float Switch
Types There are two basic float switch designs; single-action and wide- angle. Single-action switches operate over a range of 15° so they open and close quickly. Wide-angle floats operate over a 90° swing with the tether length between the float body and the pivot point controlling the On-Off range. The design determines how many floats are required with different systems or controls. Floats may be normally open (NO) for pump down applications or to empty a tank. Normally closed (NC) switches are used to pump up or to fill a tank. As ingle-action control switch may be used only with a control panel, never direct connected to a pump. The wide-angle, pump down switches may be used as direct connected pump switches or as_ control switches.
> Setting the float switches
There are no absolute rules for where to set the float switches, it varies from job to job.

Recommendations & Installation

Suggested Rules to Follow: All floats should be set below the Inlet pipe!
Off Float: Best: set so free hanging the water level is always above the top of the pump (motor dome). Next Best: set so the water level is not more than 6″ below the top of the pump.
On Float: set so the volume of water between the On and Off floats allows pumps of 1.5 HP and under to operate for 1 minute minimum. 2 HP and larger pumps should run a minimum of 2 minutes. Basin technical brochure states the gallons of storage per inch of basin height.
Lag/Alarm Float(s): should be staggered above the Off and On floats. Try to use most of the available storage provided by the basin, save some space for reserve storage capacity. Exact reserve may be called out by local codes. See Diagrams and Charts in Float Switch Chart Section.
> Panel wiring diagrams
Our control panels are shipped with instructions and wiring diagrams. Use those instructions in conjunction with this IOM. Electrical installation should be performed only by qualified technicians. Any problem or questions pertaining to another brand control must be referred to that control supplier or manufacturer.
> Alarms
We recommend the installation of an alarm on all wastewater pump installations. Many standard control panels come equipped with alarm circuits. If a control panel is not used, a stand alone high liquid level alarm is available. The alarm alerts the owner of a high liquid level in the basin so they can contact the appropriate service personnel to investigate the situation.
> Three phase pumps
As a Minimum a Ø3 pump requires a 3 pole circuit breaker/fused circuit, an across the line magnetic starter rated for the pump HP, and ambient compensated Quick Trip Class 10 overloads.
> Control Panels
Control panels are available as Simplex (controls 1 pump) or Duplex (controls 2 pumps). Our standard Panels are available with many standard features and can be built with our most popular options. We also custom build panels which offer many more design options. Custom control panels are available in many different configurations. Custom panel quote requests may be forwarded to Customer Service through any authorized distributor.
Our duplex panels feature a solid- state printed circuit board design with standard high level alarm circuits. Other standard features are: an auxiliary dry alarm contact for signaling a remote alarm and float switch position indicator lights. Our Ø3 panels have built-in, adjustable, Class 10 overloads. The adjustable overloads on all our 3 panels mean less labor for the installer and no need to order specific overloads. Most panels are in stock for immediate delivery without options. Always follow wiring schematic of the panel. Failure to wire the seal failure and heat sensor leads correctly may prevent the pump from running or cause nuisance tripping.
> Installation
Connect the pump(s) to the guide rail pump adapters or to the discharge piping. Slide rail bases should be anchored to the wedel floor.
Complete all wiring per the control panel wiring diagrams and NEC, Canadian, state, provincial and/or local codes. This a good time to check for proper rotation of the motors/impellers.
DO NOT PLACE HANDS IN PUMP SUCTION WHILE CHECKING MOTOR ROTATION. TO DO SO WILL CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL INJURY.
Always verify correct rotation. Correct rotation is indicated on the pump casing. Three phase motors are reversible. It is allowable to bump or jog the motor for a few seconds to check impeller rotation. It is easier to check rotation before installing the pump. Switch any two power leads to reverse rotation.
Lower the pump(s) into the wedel and check to insure that the floats will operate freely and not contact the piping.
> Operation
Once the piping connections are made and checked you can run the pumps.
Control Panel Operation – Fill the wetwell with clear water. Use the pump H-O-A (Hand-Off-Automatic) switches in hand to test the pumps. If they operate well in hand proceed to test Automatic operation. If the pumps run but fail to pump, they are probably air locked, drill the relief holes per the instructions in the Piping Section.
Place Control Panel switch(es) in Automatic position and thoroughly test the operation of the ON, OFF, and Alarm floats by filling the wedel with clear water.

Installation

Important: Failure to provide a Neutral from the power supply to a Ø1, 230 volt Control Panel will not allow the panel control circuit to operate. The Neutral is necessary to complete the 115 volt control circuit.
Check voltage and amperage and record the data on the front of this manual for future reference. Compare the amperage readings to the pump nameplate maximum amperage. If higher than nameplate amperage investigate cause.
Operating the pump off the curve, i.e. with too little head or with high or low voltage will increase amperage. The motor will operate properly with voltage not more than 10% above or below pump nameplate ratings.
Performance within this range will not necessarily be the same as the published performance at the exact rated nameplate frequency and voltage. Correct the problem before proceeding. Three phase unbalance is also a possible cause. See  power unbalance and follow the instructions.
Reset the Alarm circuit, place pump switch(es) in the Automatic position and Control Switch in ON position. The system is now ready for automatic operation.
Explain the operation of the pumps, controls and alarms to the end user. Leave the paperwork with the owner or at the control panel if in a dry, secure location.

Power Unbalance
A full three phase supply consisting of three individual transformers or one three phase transformer is recommended. “Open” delta or wye connections using only two transformers can be used, but are more likely to cause poor performance, overload tripping or early motor failure due to current unbalance. Check the current in each of the three motor leads and calculate the current unbalance as explained below. If the current unbalance is 2% or less, leave the leads as connected.
If the current unbalance is more than 2%, current readings should be checked on each leg using each of the three possible hook-ups. Roll the motor leads across the starter in the same direction to prevent motor reversal.
To calculate percent of current unbalance:
A. Add the three line amp values together.
B. Divide the sum by three, yielding average current.
C. Pick the amp value which is furthest from the average current (either high or low).
D. Determine the difference between this amp value (furthest from average) and the average.
E. Divide the difference by the average. Multiply the result by 100 to determine percent of unbalance.
Current unbalance should not exceed 5% at service factor load or 10% at rated input load. If the unbalance cannot be corrected by rolling leads, the source of the unbalance must be located and corrected.
If, on the three possible hookups, the leg farthest from the average stays on the same power lead, most of the unbalance is coming from the power source. Contact your local power company to resolve the imbalance.
Insulation Resistance Readings Normal Ohm and Megaohm Values between all leads and ground (see table 1).
Insulation resistance varies very little with rating. Motors of all HP, voltage and phase ratings have similar values of insulation resistance.
Insulation resistance values above are based on readings taken with a megohmmeter with a 500V DC output. Readings may vary using a lower voltage ohmmeter, consult factory if readings are in question.
Engineering Data
Engineering data for specific models may be found in your catalog. Control panel wiring diagrams are shipped with the control panels. Please use the control panel drawings in conjunction with this instruction manual to complete the wiring.

Example:

T3-R = 51 amps
T1-B = 46 amps
T2-W = 53 amps
Total = 150 amps
÷ 3 = 50 amps
– 46 = 4 amps
4 ÷ 50 = .08 or 8%| T2-W = 50 amps
T3-R = 48 amps
T1-B = 52 amps
Total = 150 amps
÷ 3 = 50 amps
– 48 = 2 amps
2 ÷ 50 = .04 or 4%| T1-B = 50 amps
T2-W = 49 amps
T3-R = 51 amps
Total = 150 amps
÷ 3 = 50 amps
– 49 = 1 amps
1 ÷ 50 = .02 or 2%

Risk of electric shock. Always disconnect the pump from the power source before handling inspections or repairs.

SYMPTOM POSSIBLE CAUSE(s)

Motor not running.

Note : If circuit breaker “OPENS” repeatedly, DO NOT reset. Call qualified electrician.

Note: Check the pump in manual mode first to confirm operation. If pump operates, the automatic control or wiring is at fault. If pump does nos operate, see above.

| Pump impeller binding or jammed.
Motor thermal protector tripped.
Open circuit breaker or blown fuse.
Power cable is damaged.
No neutral wire connected to control panel.
Inadequate electrical connection in control panel.
Defective liquid level switch.
Insufficient liquid level to activate controls.
Liquid level cords tangled.
P u m p   wall   n o t   turnoff. **| Liquid level cords tangled.

CORRECTIVE ACTION**

Allow motor to cool. Insure minimum pump submergence. Clear debris from casing and impeller.
Determine cause, call a qualified electrician.
Check motor amp draw. If two or more times higher than listed on pump nameplate, impeller is locked, motor bearings or shaft is damaged. Clear debris from casing and impeller, consult with dealer. Resistance between power leads and ground should read infinity. If any reading is incorrect, call a qualified electrician.
Inspect control panel wiring. Call a qualified electrician.
With switch disconnected, check continuity while activating liquid level switch. Replace switch, as required.
Allow liquid level to rise 3″ to 4″ (76 mm – 101 mm) above turn-on level.
Untangle cords and insure free operation.
Untangle cords and insure free operation.
Shut off up ump  for approximately one p minute, then restart. Repeat until air lock clears. If air locking persists in a system with a check valve, a 3/16″ (4.8 mm) hole may be drilled in the discharge pipe approximately 2″ (51 mm) above the discharge connection.
Larger pump may be required.
Check flow arrow on valve and check valve operation.
Consult with dealer.
Inspect and clear as required.
Check pump rotation, voltage and wiring. Consult with qualified electrician.
