Eccentric increasers can be used in the suction line
when increasing the pipe size. The straight side of
eccentric reducers should be installed on top to elim-
inate air pockets. Support the suction and discharge
lines independently by the use of pipe hangers or
anchors. Do not attempt to spring the suction and
discharge lines into position.

The power supply required for the unit is indicted on
the nameplate located inside the control panel. A
dedicated ground wire must be connected to the unit.

Single phase motors have internal overload protec-
tion. The disconnecting means and short circuit pro-
tection are to be supplied and mounted by others.

2.6

For units installed with an optional tank, the tank
must be installed per the requirements of drawing
Appendix C. Fill the tank per the tank prior to putting
the unit into service.
