Place the “Attention Service Technician” label included with the pump on the outside of the access
panel in a visible location.
Operation Testing
1. Disconnect the pump from the power source.
2. Remove tank cover assembly from the tank.
• The cover snaps on to the reservoir.
• Pull out on the slot located on the long side of
the white top. Place a finger in one of the
larger holes in the corner of the top and lift to
remove the top part of the pump.
• Carefully lift the cover assembly from the tank
and hold level.
3. Turn on power to the pump.
4. Test pump operating switch by raising pump switch float.
• Motor should turn on before pump switch float contacts underneath side of tank cover.
5. Test high level switch by raising high level switch float.
• High level switch should activate before float contacts underneath side of tank cover.
• If wired to NO terminal, air handling device should shut down when float is raised.
• If wired to NC terminal, external component (alarm or relay) should activate when float is raised.
6. Disconnect the pump from the power source.
7. Replace the tank cover assembly.

3. Be sure the floats move freely. Clean as necessary.
4. Remove the check valve and backwash the discharge port into the volute. Do this over a sink.
5. Clean the tank with warm water and mild soap.
6. Flush tank with fresh water. This helps to ensure that residual condensate does not create localized
pockets of acid that could cause pitting.
7. Check inlet and outlet piping. Clean as necessary. Be sure there are no kinks in the line that would
inhibit flow.
8. Inspect the check valve and clean with warm water and mild soap if necessary.
9. Replace the tank cover assembly.
10. Test operation of the system.
Risk of bodily injury or property damage.
•
Do not allow the tank to overflow during this maintenance.
•
Inspect and test the condensate removal system condition and operation every 6 months (more frequently in heavy-use applica
-
tions).
