OPERATION 

OPERATING CONDITIONS

• Temperature: min -20°C/max +40°C (-4°F /max 104°F)    

• Relative Humidity:  max 90%

FLUID COMPATIBILITY

• These products are compatible with the following fluids: Gasoline, Diesel, Kerosene & Mineral Spirits

• Do NOT use with other fluids without consulting manufacturer.

INSTALLATION 

1. Tightly screw suction pipe into inlet coupling of pumping unit. Extend suction pipe into truck 

tank or barrel to within 3” of tank bottom.

2. Screw inlet coupling of pump into 2” tank or barrel opening. Inlet coupling must be complete-

ly and securely threaded into an undamaged tank or barrel bung.

3. During installation and maintenance, make sure that the electric supply lines are not live. 

4. Always turn off the switch before supplying electrical power.

5. Check the correct rotation direction of the DC pump. If it is inverted, check the polarity of the 

connection cable.

a) RED cable: positive pole (+)

b) BLACK cable: negative pole (-)

6. Systems should be designed to require a minimum amount of suction lift. Maximum 

“equivalent feet of lift” is 8’ for diesel fuel.

7. Tank or barrel must be properly vented. A water separator should be used for pumping diesel fuel.

8. DC Electrical:

8.1 Remove pump’s junction box cover and straighten the 2 wires to make the stripped wire 

ends accessible outside of the junction box.

8.2 Screw furnished cable connector into 1/2” NPT conduit opening in pump junction box.

8.3 Strip 6in. of the outer covering from one end of the furnished electrical cable being 

careful not to damage the black and red wire insulation.

8.4 Loosen cable connector nut and pass the stripped end of the furnished cable through the 

cable connector until 2in. of the unstrapped cable is within the cable connector. Tighten 

the cable connector nut.

8.5 Strip 1/2” of the installation from the ends of the red and black cable wires. Using the 

furnished wire nuts, connect these wires to the pump wires matching the colors. Be sure 

no bare wire is exposed.

8.6 Fold wires into junction box and replace cover making sure the gasket is in place. Make 

sure all screws are seated so there is no space between the cover and the junction box.

9. AC Electrical

9.1 Electrical wiring should be done by a licensed electrician in compliance with local, state 

and national codes.

9.2 Remove the pump’s electrical junction box cover and straighten the 3 wires to make the 

stripped wire ends accessible outside of the junction box.

9.3 Install rigid conduit and wires from the power source to the junction box to maintain 

explosion-proof integrity. 

9.4 Connect wires to pump connecting like colored wires together. Ground wire must be connected.

9.5 Fold wires into junction box and replace cover making sure the gasket is in place. Make 

sure all screws are seated so there is no space between the cover and the junction box. 

The installation is now complete.
