CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING:
This product and related
accessories contain chemicals known to the
State of California to cause cancer, birth
defects or other reproductive harm.
INDOOR USE
Locate the control box in a convenient location,
preferably close to the pump installation. The box
may be secured to a wall or other stable vertical
support by use of the four mounting holes located
in the mounting feet on the top and bottom of the
box.
The box should be mounted approximately 5 feet
from the floor to the circuit breaker handle. Care
should be taken to avoid mounting the control
box under sweating pipes, faucets or other damp
locations.
OUTDOOR USE
The control box may be mounted at the location of
the pump and basin or may be mounted in a remote
location. The box should be secured to a stable
vertical support which in turn should be secured to
a concrete basin or footer. The box could also be
mounted to the side of the house or other stationary
support if available within a reasonable distance.
When selecting a location, you should consider the
visibility of the alarm light.
The box may be secured by the use of four mounting
holes located in the mounting feet on the top and
bottom of the box. The box should be mounted
approximately 5 feet from the ground to the circuit
breaker handle.
LOCATION AND MOUNTING
POWER SUPPLY
WARNING
Do not attempt to wire this control box unless you
have a good working knowledge of electricity and
are familiar with state and local codes. If you are in
doubt about anything, contact an electrician.
The power supply for the control box will vary
depending upon which particular model you have
purchased.
Do not attempt to operate this unit on
any other voltage or power distribution other than
what it was originally designed.
Failure to comply
with this will result in the immediate cancellation
of all warranties and claims.
It is advisable to put the pump on its own circuit
using a circuit breaker adequately sized to protect
the pump. Check state and local codes for the
correct wire size and circuit protection to use. The
wire should be sized large enough to handle the
full load current of both pumps you are operating,
and any voltage drop that might occur due to long
service runs.
Run power supply lines to the control box and
secure (knockouts are not supplied in this box).
Select a convenient location on the bottom to enter
the box with the power supply. Cut a hole with a
chassis punch, caution should be taken not to get
fiberglass chips in the components while cutting
hole. After the hole is cut, any fiberglass particles
must be removed from box. Failure to do so may
result in premature component failure.
Connect incoming power to the circuit breaker top
lugs and all necessary ground wires to the ground
lug at the bottom of the box. The ground lug should
be fastened to a good driven earth ground by one
of the methods described in the National Electric
Code.
NOTE: On single phase panels, the neutral terminal
block (labeled “N” and located next to the circuit
breaker) must be connected to the incoming power
neutral line. If the incoming power does not have a
neutral line, then the neutral terminal block should
be jumpered to the ground lug.
