transducer can then be attached to the hose
above the point where it bends along the bot­
tom. See Figure B-4 for a typical installation.
c. The wet well or sump must be vented to atmo­
sphere.
d. The EPS is scaled in feet of water column. If
the measured medium is other than 1.0 spe­
cific gravity, the reading on the EPS should be
divided by the specific gravity of the mea­
sured medium to obtain the actual level.
e. Thoroughly clean the transducer after each
use to prevent clogging.
Do not disassemble the transducer or
loosen the compression nut at the signal
cable entry. This will void warranty. There
are no user‐serviceable parts inside. Do
not nick or cut the jacket of the signal
cable; this will cause leakage and void
warranty.

DISCHARGE LINES
Siphoning
Do not terminate the discharge line at a level lower
than that of the liquid being pumped unless a si­
phon breaker is used in the line. Otherwise, a si­
phoning action causing damage to the pump
could result.
Valves
If a throttling valve is desired in the discharge line,
use a valve as large as the largest pipe to minimize
friction losses. Never install a throttling valve in a
suction line.
With high discharge heads, it is recommended that
a throttling valve and a system check valve be in­
stalled in the discharge line to protect the pump
