Safety Information WARNING! Electrical wiring should be performed ONLY by a licensed electrician in compliance with local, state, and national electrical code NEC/ ANSI/NFPA 70, NFPA 30, and NFPA 30A, as appropriate to the intended use of the pump. Threaded rigid conduit, sealed fittings, and conductor seal should be used where applicable. The pump must be properly grounded.
CAUTION! A pressure retaining fill cap can be used to reduce fuel loss through evaporation, but note that it will reduce the flow rate. CAUTION! Threaded pipe joints and connections should be sealed with the appropriate sealant or sealant tape to prevent the possibility of leaks. WARNING! The 3200 series pump is designed primarily for use with stationary tank applications.
Typical Skid Tank Installation Materials: • 1-1/4” pipe cut to a length that will extend to within 3” of the bottom of the tank when screwed into the tank adapter with the tank adapter screwed into the tank flange (see SKID TANK INSTALLATION diagram). • Threaded pipe joint sealant appropriate for application. Installation Procedure: Assembly View 1. Thread the 1-1/4” pipe into the tank adapter. Seal threads liquid tight with appropriate sealant.
Typical Skid Tank Installation (cont’d) 2. Screw the inlet flange (with suction pipe) into the tank flange; seal threads liquid tight with appropriate thread sealant (Figure 2). Figure 2 3. Mount the pump on the adapter; making sure the seal and screen are installed as shown. (Figure 3). Figure 3 Electrical Wiring Wiring Procedure CAUTION! The FR3200 series pump is designed to operate on 12 VDC. Use the supplied battery cable to supply power to the pump from a 12 VDC battery.
Instructions Before Proceeding With DC Wiring The pump needs to be electrically bonded to supply tank or vehicle frame. To electrically bond pump, remove green bonding screw located next to junction box cover. Insert this screw through eyelet of furnished green bonding wire assembly and refasten it securely to the pump. The other end of the wire is to be stripped of insulation and the bare wire securely bonded to the vehicle / trailer frame or skid tank.
DC Wiring (cont’d) For Skid Mounted Tanks 1. Pass the electrical wires to the power source, supporting the wires as necessary and protecting them from sharp edges, heat and anything that could damage the wires. 2. Attach one end of the fuse holder to the red pump wire. Make a solid electrical connection to the positive terminal of the power source with the other end of the fuse holder. Make a solid connection with the black pump wire to the negative terminal of the power source. 3.
50 amp fuse located outside of hazardous area. See installation guidelines for size. 50 amp fuse located outside of hazardous area. See installation guidelines for size.
Operating Instructions CAUTION! Always keep the nozzle in contact with the container being filled during the filling process to minimize the possibility of static electricity build up. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. If so equipped, reset Meter to “0” (do not reset while in use as this can cause damage to the meter). Remove dispensing nozzle from nozzle boot. Move the switch lever to the “ON” position to power the pump (figure 5). Insert the dispensing nozzle into the container to be filled.
