General Information
Before installation, read the following instructions carefully. Each Liberty pump is individually factory tested to insure proper
performance. Closely following these instructions will eliminate potential operating problems, assuring years of trouble-free service.

Risk of electric shock. Always disconnect the controller from the power source before opening the enclosure.

This controller is supplied with a grounding conductor and grounding-type attachment plug. To reduce the risk of
electric shock, be certain that it is connected only to a properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle.

DO NOT bypass grounding wires or remove ground prong from attachment plugs.

This controller requires a separate, properly fused and grounded branch circuit. Make sure the power source is
properly sized for the voltage and amperage requirements of the pumps, as noted on the nameplate.

The electrical outlet shall be within the length limitations of the power cord, and at least 4 feet above floor level to
minimize possible hazards from flood conditions. DO NOT use an extension cord.

The installation must be in accordance with the National Electric Code, Uniform Plumbing Code, International
Plumbing Code, as well as all applicable local codes and ordinances.

DO NOT use this product for flammable or corrosive liquid.

DO NOT use this product in applications where human contact with the pumped fluid is common (such as swimming
pools, fountains, etc.)
The ProVore
®
Duplex Control system (PDC-series) monitors the
operation of two ProVore
®
grinder pumps. The control system comes in
two parts, the controller with user interface and the float switches
mounted inside the basin. The P680 system includes two ProVore
®
pumps and two float ball switches. The two float ball switches are
connected such that only three cords exit the cover. All three cords, two
pump power cords and control cord, must be plugged into the controller
box for the indoor models, PDC-115 and PDC-230. The outdoor units
require hard wiring, the plug ends of the pumps and switch must be cut
off and stripped appropriately. The control box monitors the liquid level
in the basin and alternates the two grinder pumps each cycle such that
both pumps receive equal wear. In the event one pump should fail, the
system will automatically switch to the other pump. On the face of the
controller are a number of LED lights and push buttons that allow the
user to monitor and control the system. Both controllers require a
dedicated circuit of the proper ampacity. The PDC(W)-115 requires
115V, 20 amp service while the PDC(W)-230 is 230V, 15 amp service.
