• Efuent systems should specify that pumps should not handle solids exceeding 3/4” (19 mm) in order to prevent large solids from entering leeching elds, mound systems, etc. (70 Series have 3/8” (9 mm) solids capability. 50, 140/4140, 371 and 372 Series have 1/2” (13 mm), 130 Series has 5/8" (16 mm), 145/4145, 160/4160, 180/4180 and 373 models have 3/4” [19 mm].) Where code permits, sewage pumps can be used for efuent systems. Non-automatic pumps with external-level controls are recommended for septic tank efuent applications. 1. Inspect all materials. Occasionally, products are damaged during shipment. If the unit is damaged, contact your dealer before using. DO NOT remove the test plugs from the pump. 2. Carefully read the literature provided to familiarize yourself with specic details regarding installation and use. These materials should be retained for future reference.

REFER TO WARRANTY ON PAGE 2. 1. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, a properly grounded receptacle or control box must be installed in accordance with the governing codes. Never remove ground pin from plug. 2. Make certain that the ground fault interrupter protected receptacle or control box is within the reach of the pump’s power supply cord. DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD. Extension cords that are too long or too light do not deliver sufcient voltage to the pump motor, and they could present a safety hazard if the insulation were to become damaged or the connection end were to fall into a damp or wet area. 3. Make sure the pump's electrical supply circuit is equipped with fuses or circuit breakers of proper capacity. A separate branch circuit is recommended, sized according to the local electrical codes for the current shown on the pump name plate.

4. Testing for ground. As a safety measure, each electrical outlet should be checked

for ground using a circuit analyzer which will indicate if the power, neutral and ground wires are correctly connected to your outlet. If they are not, call a quali-ed licensed electrician. 5. FOR YOUR PROTECTION, ALWAYS DISCONNECT PUMP FROM ITS POWER SOURCE BEFORE HANDLING. If pump is wired direct, de-energize the circuit at the control box. Wear insulated protective shoes and do not stand in water. Pumps equipped with a 3-prong ground plug are designed to help protect against electrical shock. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE THE GROUND PIN. 6. Installation and servicing of the pump, electrical circuits and hardware should only be performed by a qualied, licensed electrician.

7. Risk of electrical shock. Do not remove power supply cord and strain relief

or connect conduit directly to the pump. If the supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the Manufacturer or an Authorized Service and Warranty Center to avoid a hazard. 8. Pump contains oil which becomes pressurized and hot when operating. Allow 2-1/2 hours after disconnecting before attempting service. 9. Pump is not intended for potable water due to possible contamination by oil contained in the pump. 10. Risk of electrical shock. These pumps have not been investigated for use in swimming pools and marine areas. 11. Prop65 Warning for California residents: Cancer and Reproductive Harm- www.P65Warnings.ca.gov. 1. Check to be sure your power source is capable of handling the voltage requirements of the motor, as indicated on the pump name plate. 2. The installation of variable level oat switches is the responsibility of the installing party, and care should be taken that the tethered oat switch will not hang up on the pump apparatus or pit peculiarities and is secured so that the pump will shut off. It is recommended to use rigid pipe and ttings and the pit be 18" (46 cm) or larger in diameter.

3. Vent hole. It is necessary that all submersible sump, efuent, and sewage

pumps capable of handling various sizes of solid waste be of the bottom intake design to reduce clogging and seal failures. If a check valve is incorporated in the installation, a 3/16" (5 mm)vent hole must be drilled in the discharge pipe below the check valve and pit cover to purge the unit of trapped air. Vent hole should be checked periodically for clogging. The vent hole on a High Head application may cause too much turbulence. If you choose not to drill a vent hole, be sure the pump case and impeller is covered with liquid before connecting the pipe to the check valve. NOTE: THE HOLE MUST BE BELOW THE BASIN COVER AND CLEANED PERIODICALLY. Water stream will be visible when pump is operating. 4. Pump should be checked frequently for debris and/or build up which may interfere with the oat “on” or “off” position. Repair and service should be performed by an Authorized Service and Warranty Center. 5. Maximum operating temperature for standard model pumps must not exceed 130 °F (54 °C). Maximum operating temperatures for 70 series and model 211 must not exceed 110 °F (43 °C). Maximum operating temperatures for 73, 75, 212 series must not exceed 104 °F (40 °C). 6. Do not operate a pump in an application where the Total Dynamic Head is less than the minimum Total Dynamic Head listed on the Pump Performance Curves. 7. For health reasons, do not unplug, turn off, or disable pump and use pump tank system as a way to ll up a sink or laundry tray, etc. 8. Pumps must be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances. Pumps are not to be installed in locations classied as hazardous in accordance with National Electric Code, ANSI, NFPA 70. NOTE: Pumps with the "UL" mark and pumps with the "US" mark are tested to UL standard UL778. CSA certied pumps are certied to CSA standard C22.2 No. 108.

1. Electrical wiring and protection must be in accordance with governing

2. Install proper Zoeller Unicheck (combination union and check valve),

preferably just above the basin to allow easy removal of the pump for cleaning or repair. If high head or below-cover installation is required, use 30-0164 on 1-1/2" (DN40) pipe, 30-0152 on 2" (DN50) pipe and 30-0160 on 3" (DN80) pipe.

3. All installations require a basin cover to prevent debris from falling into

the basin and to prevent injury.

4. When a Unicheck is installed, drill a 3/16" (5 mm) diameter hole in the

discharge pipe even with the top of the pump. NOTE: THE HOLE MUST ALSO BE BELOW THE BASIN COVER AND CLEANED PERIODICALLY. (High Head unit see “Caution” on front page). Water stream will be visible from this hole when pump is operating.

5. Securely tape or clamp power cord to discharge pipe, clear of the oat

6. Use a discharge pipe equivalent in diameter to the pump's discharge.

7. Basin must be in accordance with governing codes and specications.

8. Pump must be level and oat mechanism(s) clear of sides of basin

before starting pump.

9. Basin must be clean and free of debris after installation.

THREE PHASE WIRING INSTRUCTIONS

FOR YOUR PROTECTION, ALWAYS

DISCONNECT PUMP FROM ITS POWER SOURCE BEFORE HANDLING. To automatically operate a nonautomatic three phase pump, a control panel is required. Follow the instructions provided with the panel to wire the system. For automatic three phase pumps, see automatic 3 phase wiring diagram located to the far right. Before installing a pump, check the pump rotation to ensure that wiring has been connected properly to power source, and that the green lead of power cord (see wiring diagram) is connected to a valid ground. Momentarily energize the pump, observing the directions of kick back due to starting torque. Rotation is correct if kick back is in the opposite direction of rotation arrow on the pump casing. If rotation is not correct, switching of any two power leads other than ground, should provide the proper rotation. All three phase pumps require motor starting devices with motor overload protection. See FM0486 for duplex installations. Pumps must be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances. Pumps are not to be installed in locations classied as hazardous in accordance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. NONAUTOMATIC 3 PHASE AUTOMATIC 3 PHASE (3) FLOAT (1) (2) BLUE TAN COM

FOR YOUR PROTECTION, ALWAYS DISCONNECT PUMP FROM ITS POWER SOURCE BEFORE HANDLING. Single phase pumps are supplied with a 3-prong grounded plug to help protect you against the possibility of electrical shock. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, REMOVE THE GROUND PIN. The 3-prong plug must be inserted into a mating 3-prong grounded receptacle. If the installation does not have such a receptacle, it must be changed to the proper type, wired and grounded in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances. Risk of electrical shock. Do not remove power supply cord and strain relief or connect conduit directly to the pump. Installation and checking of electrical circuits and hardware should be performed by a qualied licensed electrician. Units supplied without a plug (single and three phase) and single phase nonautomatic units with a 20 amp plug must have a motor control and liquid level control provided at time of installation. The control device should have suitable voltage, ampere, frequency, grounding and horsepower rating for the pump to which it is connected.
