Install Instructions

INTRODUCTION
EN
The shallow pan condensate unit is designed especially for ceiling mounted
units and other refrigerated air conditioners where minimum height is important.
The pump is designed to be placed directly in a holding reservoir or used with a
tank supplied by the manufacturer. Pump should not be used where water level
can exceed the ON level of the pump. The pump is controlled by a float/switch
mechanism that automatically switches the pump on and off.
This instruction sheet primarily covers the standard models in this pump series, but
is applicable to other models in this series not listed by model number. If the model
number of your pump is not listed, use caution when ordering replacement parts.
Always give the model number of your pump when ordering replacement parts.
Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow these instructions voids all warranty,
and could result in bodily harm or property damage. All wiring and plumbing must
be permanent, and comply with local, state, and national electrical codes. Shut off
electrical power at the fuse box before servicing the pump.
INSTALLATION
1. Carefully unpack the pump. Remove the cardboard packing from the motor
cover air slots. Carefully slide the packing away from the pump. This packing is
used to prevent switch movement during shipment.
2. This model can be equipped with a reservoir tank, which is sold separately. The
tank has two holes provided to mount the unit in a convenient location. The
pump must be level and the inlet must be below the coil drain.
PIPING
1. Run flexible tubing or pipe from evaporator drain into pump holding tank. Be
sure inlet piping is sloped downward to allow gravity flow.
2. The outlet piping (Figure 1) should be flexible tubing or pipe (1/2” I.D. maximum
to prevent excessive flow back to unit). From condensate unit, extend discharge
piping straight up as high as necessary (but not above the head/GPH of the model
being installed.) From this high point, slope discharge line down slightly to a point
above drain area, then turn down and extend to a point below or approximately
level with the bottom of the condensate unit. This will give a siphoning effect which
will improve efficiency of the condensate unit. If it is not possible to slope discharge
line down, make an inverted “U” trap directly above the pump at the highest point.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
1. Shut off electrical power at fuse box before making any connections. All wiring
must comply with local, state, and national electrical codes.
2. Connect power cord to line voltage specified on motor and nameplate. Power
cord must be connected to a constant source of power (not a fan or other device
than runs intermittently). If power cord does not have a plug, wiring is as follows:
green/yellow - ground, brown - line, blue - neutral.
TESTING
1. Turn on power.
2. Test the unit after it is installed by filling the tank with water until the pump
comes on. Check the lines for leaks and kinks that will prevent full water
disposal. If water is not available, test the pump by removing the switch screen
and inserting differentiator top into switch housing bottom.
CAUTION: Do not run pump dry for more than a couple of seconds. Do not test this
way if water is present.
SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
1. MAKE CERTAIN THE UNIT IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER SOURCE
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO SERVICE OR REMOVE ANY COMPONENT!
2. Be sure the floats move freely. Clean as necessary.
3. Pump screen is snapped on; remove it by pulling, then remove the three screws
that attach the volute. DO NOT remove any other screws.
4. Lightly clean any corrosion or debris that may clog the impeller. Use brush and
penetrating oil and lightly scrape to remove encrusted material.
5. Turn the impeller by hand to make sure it turns freely. Plug the unit in to see if
the impeller turns (see testing #2). Do not allow the pump to operate for more
than a couple of seconds. If the pump does operate, then replace the volute.
The unit should operate normally when connected to the correct voltage.
6. If for any reason these operations do not restore the unit to full service, call
your dealer or service. Do not in any case open the sealed portion of the unit or
remove screws other than those indicated above. Do not cut the electric cord
when removing the unit from the application. Disconnect the pump from its
regular connections. Failure to follow these guidelines may void the warranty.
7. If you remove the impeller and/or backplate, be certain to reassemble them
correctly. Impeller spacing is gauged from backplate to impeller edge. Use the
thickness of a dime to space the impeller away from backplate. Tighten set
screws on impeller to 3 - 5 inch pounds (hand tighten).

INTRODUCTION
FR
L’évacuateur de condensat à bac peu profond est spécialement conçu pour les
appareils de plafond ainsi que d’autres appareils de climatisation où une hauteur
minimale est importante. La pompe est conçue pour être placée directement dans
un bassin de rétention; il est aussi possible d’utiliser un réservoir fourni par le
fabricant. La pompe ne doit ni être placée où le niveau de liquide peut dépasser
le niveau d’activation de la pompe. Elle est commandée par un mécanisme à
interrupteur flottant l’active/l’éteint automatiquement.
Ce feuillet d’instructions couvre les modèles standard de cette série de pompes.
Il est aussi disponible pour d’autres modèles qui ne sont pas indiqués dans
ce document. Si votre pompe ne figure pas dans la liste, il faut faire preuve de
prudence pendant la commande de pièces de rechange. Toujours donner le
numéro de modèle et de catalogue de votre pompe au moment de commander
des pièces.
Bien lire les présentes instructions. Le non-respect de ces instructions annule
toutes les garanties et peut causer des dommages ou des blessures. Le câblage
et la plomberie doivent être permanents et conformes tout aux codes. Couper
l’alimentation électrique à la boîte de fusibles avant de faire l’entretien de la
pompe.
