If a single phase pump is to be wired directly into a control device or junction box, and it is necessary to remove the plugs,
have a certified electrician do the wiring in accordance with the National Electric Code and applicable local codes. See
Fig. 6 for direct wire installation of single phase, automatic pumps.
For 208- 230V installations: Install a
double pole disconnect near the pump
installation. One side of the line going to the pump is always “hot”, whether the float switch is in the
“On” or the “Off” position. Use of a double pole disconnect will allow both hot legs to be de-energized.
Risk of electric shock. Always disconnect the pump from the power source before handling or
making adjustments.
Always disconnect the pump from power source before handling. This guide is designed to help
identify reasons for potential operating problems. It is not a service guide. Dismantling of pump
voids warranty. Servicing of pump other than simple cleaning of pump inlet or impeller should be
referred to the factory or its authorized service centers.
1. Submersible Models: Submersible pump models have sealed permanently lubricated bearings and require
no additional lubrication.
2. Pump should be checked frequently for debris and/or build up which may interfere with pump or float
switch operation. The float must be able to move freely through its complete travel without any restrictions.
Pour enough water into the sump to activate the pump periodically (at least every 3 months) when not
normally in use to verify proper function.
