can be identified by an extra control cable exiting the motor

cover. The cable contains two wires, a black wire, connects

to panel "terminal" going to "probe"; and a white wire, con-

nects to the panel "terminal" going to the relay ground. Do

not connect to the panel ground screw. Follow the wiring

instructions supplied with the panel.
Heat Sensor and Seal Failure Circuit - Some pumps are

equipped with a seal fail and normally closed, on-winding

high temperature thermostats (heat sensors). The pumps

have a control cable with five (5) leads, black (P1) and white

(P2) for the seal fail circuit and red (W1) and orange (W2)

for the high temperature circuit. Grean lead is ground. Con-

nect the high temperature (heat sensor) circuit to the panel

terminal strip as indicated on the panel drawing using the

red and orange wires. The high temperature panel circuit

is also an optional item which you must specifically order

when you order your control panel. The high temperature

circuit is different from the Class 10 overloads which are

always required on three phase pumps. Follow the wiring

instructions supplied with the panel.
*4NS NOTE: Call Technical support for wiring of

4NS/4XD/4XWS/4DWC/2GA/1GA/15GDS/20GDS.

INSTALLATION

Connect the pump(s) to the guide rail pump adapters or to

the discharge piping. Slide rail bases should be anchored to

the wetwell floor.
Complete all wiring per the control panel wiring diagrams

and NEC, Canadian, state, provincial and/or local codes.

This a good time to check for proper rotation of the mo-

tors/impellers.

DO NOT PLACE HANDS IN PUMP

SUCTION WHILE CHECKING

MOTOR ROTATION. TO DO SO

WILL CAUSE SEVERE PERSONAL

INJURY.
Always verify correct rotation. Correct

rotation is indicated on the pump casing.

Three phase motors are reversible. It is

allowable to bump or jog the motor for a

few seconds to check impeller rotation. It

is easier to check rotation before installing

the pump. Switch any two power leads to

reverse rotation.

Lower the pump(s) into the wetwell.
Check to insure that the floats will operate freely and not

contact the piping.

OPERATION

Once the piping connections are made and checked you can

run the pumps.
Piggyback Switch Operation – Plug the piggyback switch

into a dedicated grounded outlet and then plug the pump

into the switch. Test the pump by filling the wetwell until

the pump goes On. If the pumps run but fail to pump, they

are probably air locked, drill the relief holes per the instruc-

tions in the Piping Section.
Check the operating range to insure a minimum one minute

run time and that the pump goes Off in the correct position.
Control Panel Operation – Fill the wetwell with clear water.

SINGLE PHASE PUMPS

Single phase (1Ø) pumps may be operated using a pig-

gyback or hard wired float switch, a contactor, or a Simplex

or Duplex control panel. See Figures 1, 2 and 5.

and ½ HP, 115 or 230 volt pumps, and some ¾ and 1

HP pumps, are supplied with plug style power cords. They

may be plugged into piggyback float switches for simple

installations. It is allowable to remove the plugs in order

to hardwire or connect to a Simplex or Duplex controller.

Removing the plug neither voids the warranty nor violates

the agency Listings. See Figure 5.

PLUG-CONNECTED UNITS MUST

BE CONNECTED TO A PROPERLY

GROUNDED, GROUNDING TYPE

RECEPTACLE.
ON NON-PLUG UNITS, DO NOT

REMOVE CORD AND STRAIN RELIEF.

DO NOT CONNECT CONDUIT TO

PUMP.

Pumps with bare lead power cords can be hard-wired to a

float switch, wired to a 1Ø contactor, a Simplex controller

or a Duplex controller. Always verify that the float switch

is rated for the maximum run amperage, maximum starting

amperage, and the HP rating on the pump. Single-phase

wastewater pumps contain on-winding overloads, unless

noted on the pump nameplate. See Figures 1 and 2.
THREE PHASE PUMPS:

As a Minimum a 3Ø pump requires a 3 pole circuit breaker/

fused circuit, an across the line magnetic starter rated for the

pump HP, and ambient compensated Quick Trip Class 10

overloads.
SINGLE AND THREE PHASE CONTROL PANELS:

Control panels are available as Simplex (controls 1 pump)

or Duplex (controls 2 pumps). Our standard SES Series

Panels are available with many standard features and can

be built with our most popular options. We also custom

build panels which offer many more design options than

the SES panels. Custom control panels are available in many

different configurations. Custom panel quote requests may

be forwarded to Customer Service through any authorized

distributor.
Our “SES” Duplex panels feature a solid-state printed

circuit board design with standard high level alarm circuits.

Other standard features are: an auxiliary dry alarm con-

tact for signaling a remote alarm and float switch position

indicator lights. Our 3Ø panels have built-in, adjustable,

Class 10 overloads. The adjustable overloads on all our 3Ø

panels mean less labor for the installer and no need to order

specific overloads. Most SES panels are in stock for immedi-

ate delivery.
On pumps equipped with seal fail and/or heat (high temper-

ature) sensors it is recommended that you use our control

panel with the appropriate options. The pump sensors do

not function without a seal fail relay or terminal connection

in the control panel and a warning device such as a bell,

horn or light.
Seal Failure Circuit - Some dual seal pumps are equipped

with a standard, built-in seal failure circuit, which may also

be called a moisture detection circuit. This circuit must be

connected to a control panel with an optional seal fail relay.

The panel must be special ordered with the seal fail relay

and alarm. There are also stand alone seal fail panels such

as the A4-3 or A4-4 available as standard items. The pumps
