PUTTING THE UNIT INTO SERVICE

1. Assure that the unit is piped in accordance with instructions

on pages 2, 3 and 4.

2. Check floats and alternators for free operation.
3. Check power leads in accordance with wiring diagram

enclosed in control cabinet (when furnished).

4. Install drain plugs.
5. Fill receiver half full of water to prime pump(s) and prevent

possible damage to pump seals. Avoid freezing conditions

after unit receiver has been filled.

6. Check for proper rotation of all three phase motors. Rotation

must be clockwise looking down on the motor as indicated

by directional arrow on pump casting. If pump runs back-

wards, interchange two wires (3 phase only).

7. Throttle plug cock in discharge line until pressure at pump

(while pump is discharging) approaches pump rated pres-

sure. Tighten plug nut to secure adjustment.

8. Remove start-up label (below) from panel (if applicable) after

complying with instructions.

9. If possible, observe operation thru several cycles.

Three phase motors must use starters with properly sized over-

load relays. Overload relays furnished are designed for manual

reset.
A variety of electrical controls are available to meet system

specifications. Wiring diagrams are enclosed in electrical

panels when the panels are furnished as part of the unit.
Consult wiring diagrams for specific electrical control

information.

INSULATION
Series SA units frequently handle condensate at temperatures

up to 250°F (121°C). Insulating the receiver and return piping

will effectively conserve heat otherwise lost through radiation

and convection from the receiver shell and reduce ambient

temperatures.

WARNING: EXPLOSIBLE

Do not exceed 15 psi (1.0 Bar) rated pressure. Do not

restrict relief valve discharge. Open valves slowly. Failure to

follow these instructions could result in serious injury or

death.

WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE

Disconnect and lock out power before connecting or

servicing unit. Failure to follow these instructions could

result in serious injury or death.

CAUTION: DO NOT RUN DRY.

SEAL DAMAGE MAY OCCUR.

Inspect pump seal regularly for leaks. Replace as required.

Failure to follow these instructions could result in injury or

property damage.

ELECTRICIAN / INSTALLER / OPERATOR

Remove and destroy this tag after –

1.Assuring that all pumps rotate clockwise per arrows cast

on volutes. (Jog pump momentarily to test – interchange

any two motor power wires to reverse 3Hp motors.)

2.Assuring that shipping locks have been removed from all

float switches.

CAUTION: DO NOT REVERSE

Reverse operation can cause extensive damage to

pumps. Jog the motor to test for direction of rotation. Failure

to follow these instructions could result in injury or property

damage.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

Operators must be familiar with all sections of this manual to

understand the operation of the unit.
Hot water, steam and electricity can be hazardous.

Check motor nameplate for any lubrication requirements.

Pumps require no lubrication.

NOTICE / AUTO RESTART
Single phase motors will restart automatically after

thermal overload protector trips.
Overload thermal relays in starters must be reset manually.
A properly installed unit should function unattended for long

periods of time. Periodic checks to assure proper operations

are highly recommended. Refer to trouble shooting section

when necessary.
A variety of control options are available and are furnished in

accordance with user specifications. Refer to wiring diagrams

(when furnished) to determine control switch settings.
The inlet strainer (when furnished) is intended to protect the

pump and system. Periodic cleaning should be included in the

maintenance schedule. Check frequently in new systems.

WARNING: EXPLOSIBLE

Do not exceed 15 psi (1.0 Bar) rated pressure. Do not

restrict relief valve discharge. Open valves slowly. Failure to

follow these instructions could result in serious injury or

death.

WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE

Disconnect and lock out power before connecting or

servicing unit. Failure to follow these instructions could

result in serious injury or death.

CAUTION: SUBSEQUENT DAMAGE

A unit showing symptoms of possible problems (over-

flow, noise, leaks, vibrations, continual operation, etc.) must

be corrected immediately. Failure to follow these instruc-

tions may result in full liability for subsequent injury or prop-

erty damage.
