PRE-ASSEMBLY

 

1. 

Check the packing list

 that came with the shipment.  Make certain all the boxes have been received.  Each label will have a box number  

 

 

and total for the shipment (1 of 5, 2 of 5).  The packing list has the total number of boxes noted at the bottom.

 

2.   

Check the pond depth.

  Is the pond deep enough for the unit being installed?  

 

3.   

Verify the incoming voltage

 where it will be connected to the control panel.  Does the measured voltage match the rated  

 

 

 

motor voltage requirements? Note the HP, voltage and phase on the packing list.

 

4.   

Is there a VFD operating

 from the same power supply or in the vicinity that might interfere with the GFCI?

  1.  Follow all applicable local and state electrical codes.
  2.  Protect exposed or vulnerable wiring with tubing or conduit.
  3.  Do not operate the unit when it is obvious the flow rate is reduced.
  4.  Do not work on the unit when it is turned on or operating.
  5.  Follow all normal safety precautions when working in and around the water.
  6.  Prevent tension on the electrical wires.
  7.  Do not carry or pull the unit by the lights or by the cable.  Use the finger pockets on the float.
  8.  Never try to dislodge debris from the impeller or propeller while the motor is connected to the power supply.

 

10.  Any time high voltage electricity is used underwater, a potential safety hazard exists.  Aqua Control builds and provides  

 

 

UL listed control panels that are standard equipped with a Class A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) for both motors and  

 

lights.  Class A GFCI’s are designed to provide protection against electrocution for people.  They have a nominal trip level of 5 ma
