1. All installations must be in accordance with the National Electrical Code, and any other applicable state and local electrical requirements.
Panel Installation: 1. Caution: To maintain the NEMA 4X rating, make all wiring connections with seal tight cable grips or conduit connections. 2. Determine mounting location for control panel. Mount panel using mounting feet supplied. 3. The control panel should not be mounted in an area that is subject to submersion. 4. Run pump cable and Float cables through conduit. Make field connections as shown on wiring diagram. 5. Run power line conductor through conduit. Wire to terminals per enclosed schematic. Branch circuit protection to be provided by end-user. 6. Connect power conductors 120/208/240 to proper locations on terminal block. 7. Float cables require separate conduit from power and pump cables. 8. Mount float switches at appropriate levels. Be sure that the floats have a free range of motion to prevent entanglement. Start up: 1. When the power is applied, the green power light located on the white front swing panel shall light. 2. The Pump HOA Switch shall be placed to the A (auto) position to ensure the system will pump. The pump can be tested or turned on manually if the HOA switch is in the H (Hand-Manual) position. To test the alarm circuit, push the test button on the side of enclosure, the audible alarm shall sound and the high red beacon will light. Service: Caution: Before checking electrical connections within the control or attempting to replace any components, turn off all branch circuits supplying power to the main control panel.
