Frequently Asked Questions - ECD33V Eco-Flo

What should I do if the pump does not start and hums?

First check the circuit breaker and fuses. Make sure the water level has reached the start threshold. Check that the power cord is properly plugged in and the float is not stuck. If everything is correct, the motor may be defective.

The pump runs but does not pump water, what should I do?

Check the check valve: the arrow must indicate the flow direction. Make sure the discharge valve is open. Clean the impeller and volute openings. If the pump is air locked, plug and unplug several times to purge.

How to correctly install the pump?

Place the pump on a hard surface in a basin at least 24 inches deep. Connect a discharge pipe of equal or larger diameter than the outlet. Install a check valve. Plug the pump into a dedicated 15-amp grounded circuit.

What should I do if the pump does not stop after emptying the sump?

The float may be stuck in the up position. Check that it moves freely. If the problem persists, the float switch is likely defective and must be replaced.

The pump delivers little water, what should I check?

Clean the suction openings and impeller. Check that the discharge height is not too high. Purge air by plugging and unplugging the pump. Check that the check valve is not obstructed.

The fuse blows or the circuit breaker trips at startup, why?

The impeller may be blocked, causing an overload. Clean it. Make sure the circuit is 15 amps. If the problem persists, the motor may be defective.

What safety precautions should I take?

Always unplug the pump before any intervention. Never work in water without insulated shoes. Use a residual current circuit breaker. Do not cut off the ground prong and do not use an extension cord.

Can I pump liquids other than water?

No, this pump is designed only for clean water. Pumping corrosive chemicals or flammable liquids like gasoline will damage the pump and void the warranty.

How to maintain the pump?

Periodically inspect the pump and components. Clean the suction openings and impeller to prevent blockages. Let the motor cool for 20 minutes before any maintenance. Protect the pump from freezing.

What does the warranty cover?

The 24-month limited warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship. It does not cover normal wear, improper installation, corrosion, or misuse. Keep the purchase receipt.

INSTALLATION

Do not work on pump until

power is unplugged.

use an adapter fitting.

Do not use an extension cord.

The pump power cord should be connected to a separately fused, grounded line with a minimum capacity of 15 amps. It can be connected to non-fuse breaker at the recommended amperes.

1. Before installing or servicing this pump, be certain pump's power source is disconnected.
2. Installation and electrical wiring must adhere to state and local codes and must be completed before priming pump. Check appropriate community agencies, or contact local electrical and pump professionals.
3. Call an electrician when in doubt. Pump should be connected to a separate 15 amp circuit breaker or 15 amp fuse block.

Note that plugging into existing outlets may cause low voltage at motor. This could cause blown fuses, tripping of motor overload or burned out motor.

1. A permanent ground connection from pump to the grounding bar at the service panel is mandatory. These sump pumps come with a grounding conductor and a grounding-type attachment plug. Do not connect pump to a power supply until permanently grounded.

For maximum safety, connect pump to a circuit equipped with a fault interrupter device when positioning the pump's grounding wire.

1. Voltage of power supply must match the voltage of the pump.
2. Before installing pump, clear sump basin of any water, debris or sediment.

plumbing codes. These Sump pumps are not designed for and CANNOT be installed in locations classified as hazardous.
7. The following may cause injury and/or severe damage to pump and will void the warranty.

(a) Using an extension cord.

(b) Cutting off the ground pin or using an adapter fitting.
(c) Working on pump or switch while plugged in.
(d) Removing motor housing, unscrewing impeller, or otherwise removing impeller seal.
(e) Running the pump continuously.
(f) Pumping chemicals or corrosive liquids.
(g) Pumping gasoline or other flammable liquids

1. Plastic PVC pipe can be installed in the outlet piping. Drain hose, galvanized steel or copper pipe may be used if desired.
   All piping must be clean and free of all foreign matter to prevent clogging.
2. Pump will be inadequate if suspension liquids contain solid particles larger than 1/2 (3/4" ECD75).

ELECTRICAL WIRE CONNECTION

WARNING

Verify that the voltage and frequency of the pump shown

on the nameplate corresponds to those available on the mains. The installer must make sure that the electric system is grounded in accordance with code.

• For outdoor use it is necessary to use cable with a length of at least 8'. The plug and connection should be protected from water splashes. Before using the pump, always inspect it visually (especially power cable and plug)
• Do not use pump if it is damaged
• If the pump is damaged, have it inspected by an authorized service center.
• Make sure that electric connections are protected from flooding. Protect the plug and the power cable from heat or sharp edges.

WARNING

The power cable must be replaced by qualified personnel

only. Grounding: The plug of the power cable has a double grounding contact, so that grounding can be performed by simply inserting the plug.

OVERLOAD PROTECTION

This pump series has a built in thermal protection switch. The pump stops if an overload condition occurs. The motor restarts automatically after it has cooled down. If it doesn't start automatically, unplug the pump and plug it back in.

For parts or assistance, call ECO-FLO Customer Service at 1-877 326-3561

INSTALLATION

CAUTION:

Check local codes before installing pump.

STEP1:

Pump must be installed in a suitable gas tight, properly vented basin which is at least 24" deep and is at least 18" wide for pumps fitted with wide angle on/off switches and at least 14" wide for pumps fitted with vertical on/off switches.

STEP 2:

Pump must be placed on a hard surface in a sump that has been cleared of all debris. Never place the pump on clay, earth or gravel surfaces and it is suggested the pump be placed on two bricks approximately 2" apart.

STEP 3:

Connect the discharge pipe, fittings and check valve to the discharge port of the pump. It is recommended that the discharge pipe diameter be equal to or larger than the discharge size of the pump.
