Installation Precautions
All installations must conform with all building/fire codes, all Federal, State, and Local codes,
National Electrical Code, (NFPA 70), NFPA 30, and Automotive and Marine Service Station
Code (NFPA 30A) codes and regulations. Canadian users must also comply with the Canadian
Electrical Code.
Plan your installation carefully. A pump/remote dispenser cannot be expected to work
satisfactorily unless the underground installation is correct. Dispensing troubles, which seem
to be pump-related, are frequently traced to faulty installation. Review the following list of
installation DOs and DON’Ts to avoid potential problems:
1
DO read the Important Safety Information pages at the front of this manual. It contains
important information regarding the safe use of your dispensing equipment.
2
DO install an emergency power cutoff. In addition to circuit breaker requirements of NFPA 70
and NFPA 30A, a single control which simultaneously removes AC power from all site
dispensing equipment is recommended. This control must be readily accessible, clearly
labeled, and in accordance with all local codes.
3
In a Fuel Management System application, the EMERGENCY STOP and STOP keys on the
console and/or the optional EMERGENCY STOP button on the Island Card Reader do not
remove AC power from equipment and under certain conditions, will not stop product flow.
4
In order to provide the highest level of safety to you, your employees, and customers, we
recommend that all employees be trained as to the location and procedure for turning off
power to the entire system.
5
DO have the pump/remote dispenser installed by a competent installer/electrician.
6
DO install breakaway coupling on discharge hose. If using a high hose retriever, install
breakaway approximately 12" downstream of hose clamp on nozzle side of clamp.
7
DO NOT attempt to wire a pump/remote dispenser without first reviewing the appropriate
wiring diagram and notes. Wiring diagrams contain important restrictions regarding the
connection of additional equipment. Failure to follow the correct wiring diagram may result in
damage to the CPU PCB.
8
DO NOT experiment with a pump if you are not sure the installation is correct.
9
DO NOT overload sub- or main-breaker panels.
10
DO NOT install any underground piping without proper swing joints (Always use shoulder
nipples, never close nipples).
11
DO NOT cover any lines until they have been both air- and liquid-tested.
