AC PUMPS INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
HEAVY DUTY:
1. Tightly screw suction pipe (1200KTG9099) into inlet flange
(1200F6465) of pumping unit.
2. Extend suction pipe (1200KTG9099) into tank or barrel to within
3" of tank bottom. Do not rest suction pipe on bottom of tank.
3. Screw inlet flange (1200F6465) of pump into tank or barrel opening.
Inlet flange must be completely and securely threaded into an
undamaged tank or barrel bung.
4. Systems should be designed to require a minimum amount of suction
lift. Maximum "equivalent feet of lift" is 7' (2.1m) for gas and 8' (2.4m)
for diesel fuel. ("Equivalent feet of lift" is the vertical distance from
the surface of the fluid in the tank to the inlet of the pump, PLUS
the friction losses through the vertical and horizontal runs of pipe,
all elbows and other fittings.)
5. Tank or barrel must be properly vented. Use a gasoline and oil proof
pipe compound on all joints. A water separator should be used for
pumping diesel fuel.
STANDARD DUTY
1. Secure nozzle boot (700G8828) to motor endplate with the two
supplied bolts (600F2220) as illustrated on Page 3 of manual.
2. Tightly screw extension pipe (VP1400F7687) into bung adapter.
Attach suction pipe (VP1400F7686) to extension pipe in the
same manner.
3. Cut suction pipe at a length that will place its end within 3” of the
container bottom. If a longer suction pipe is required, order
additional extension (VP1400F7687).
4. Screw bung/suction pipe assembly securely into container
opening.
HEAVY DUTY AND STANDARD DUTY (Electrical):
1. Install pump. Read and understand all of the electrical wiring
instructions before proceeding. Electrical wiring should be
done by a licensed electrician in compliance with local, state and
national codes.
2.` Remove the pump’s electrical junction box cover and straighten the
3 wires to make the stripped wire ends accessible outside of the
junction box.
3. Install rigid conduit and wires from the power source to the junction
box to maintain explosion-proof integrity. Power to the unit should
be supplied from a dedicated 15 amp circuit breaker. No other
equipment should be powered from this breaker.
4. Connect wires to pump connecting like colored wires together.
Ground wire must be connected.
5. Fold wires into junction box and replace cover making sure the
gasket is in place. Make sure all screws are seated so there is no
space between the cover and the junction box. The installation is
now complete.
TROUBLESHOOTING (ALL PUMPS)
IF PUMP FAILS TO PRIME:
Check suction line for leaks or obstructions. Check bypass valve
for dirt. The poppet should slide freely.
PUMP IS BOUND:
If the motor hums but will not start, the probable cause is a stuck
rotor. Remove rotor cover and check rotor and vanes for dirt.
LOW PUMPING CAPACITY:
Strainer screen clogged, bypass valve not seating properly, obstruc
tion in suction lines. Make sure all 5 vanes slide easily in their slots.
For Vehicle Installation
Follow steps 1 through 8 on Page 1.
A. Pass the electrical wires to the source of the vehicle power
system, supporting the wires as necessary and protecting it from
sharp edges, heat, and anything that could damage the wires.
B. To determine if the vehicle electrical system is negative (-) or
positive (+) ground, check the battery marking of the terminal that
is wired to the vehicle frame or motor block. The red wire from
the pump will connect to positive battery post and the black wire
from the pump will connect to negative battery post.
C. Attach one end of the fuse holder to the end of the ungrounded
wire. Make a solid electrical connection with the other end of the
fuse
holder to the ungrounded side of the battery. Make a solid
electrical connection to the grounded side of the battery with the
remaining pump wire.
The battery terminal or the end of the battery
cable is recommended.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to power the pump from vehicle
wiring
thinner than 12 gage such as the cigarette lighter
wire because these thin wires could overheat and cause a
fire.
D. Check all connections to make sure they are connected per
instructions and all electrical codes. Install the 30 amp slow blow
fuse in the fuse holder. The installation is now complete.
For Skid Mounted Tanks
Follow steps 1 through 8 on Page 1.
A. 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.
B. 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.
C. Check all connections to make sure they are connected per
instructions and all electrical codes. Install the 30 amp slow blow
fuse in the fuse holder. The installation is now complete.
