& Safety Warnings

Important Safety Instructions and Warnings

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. 

This manual contains important SAFETY WARNINGS and

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS for the PHCC Pro Series pumps.  You will need to refer to it
before attempting any installation or maintenance.  

ALWAYS

keep these instructions with the unit so that they will be easily accessible.

Failure to read and follow these warnings and instructions could result in property
damage, serious injury, or death. 

ALWAYS

disconnect the pump from the power source before servicing or making

adjustments.

NEVER

handle the pump or motor with wet hands or when standing on a wet or damp

surface while the pump is plugged into the power source.

MAKE SURE THERE IS A PROPERLY GROUNDED RECEPTACLE AVAILABLE.

This pump is

wired with a 3-prong grounded plug.  To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain
that it is only connected to a properly grounded, 3-prong receptacle.  If you have a 
2-prong receptacle, have a licensed electrician replace it with a 3-prong receptacle
according to local codes and ordinances.

NEVER

bypass grounding wires or remove the ground prong from the plug.

DO NOT

use an extension cord.  The electrical outlet should be within the length of the

pump’s power cord, and at least 4 feet above the floor level to minimize potential
hazards from flood conditions.

DO

protect the electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil, and chemicals.

Avoid kinking the cord.

MAKE SURE 

the supply circuit has a fuse or circuit breaker rated to handle the power

requirements noted on the nameplate of the pump.

DO NOT

remove the power supply cord and strain relief or connect the pump directly to

the conduit.

NEVER

install the pump in locations classified as hazardous in accordance with the

National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

ALWAYS

install the pump in accordance with the National Electric Code and all

applicable local codes and ordinances.  All wiring should be performed by a licensed
electrician.

DO NOT

use the power cord or strain relief to carry the pump.  Use the pump handle.

DO NOT

expose the control unit to any type of moisture, water, rain or snow.

DO NOT

operate the pump or control unit if it has been damaged in any way.

DO drill an air bleed hole in the discharge pipe when a check valve is used.  Drill
the hole angled toward the bottom of the sump to avoid splashing water outside
the sump pit.  If a hole is not drilled above the pump, an air lock may prevent the
pump from operating.  The hole must be drilled above the water line but below the
check valve.  The optimum size of the hole is different for different pumps.  Drill a
1/8” (3.2mm) hole in the discharge pipe for the S3 Series and S5 Series pumps.  

DO NOT

use sump pumps in pits handling raw sewage, salt water, or hazardous liquids.

S3 & S5 Series pumps are not designed for this purpose. The S3 and S5 Series sump
pumps are designed for ground water use only.

DO NOT

disassemble the pump or control unit.  When service is required, contact

Glentronics technical support at 800-991-0466, option 3.  Return the product to the
manufacturer for any repairs at the following address:

Glentronics, Inc.

645 Heathrow Drive, Lincolnshire, IL 60069

• The control unit must receive 115V AC +/- 5% and 60 Hz from the AC outlet.  Lower

voltage may cause the power failure alarm to activate.

• These primary pumps will not provide protection during a power outage. With the risk of

property damage from high water levels, the addition of a PHCC Pro Series battery back-
up sump pump system is highly recommended.

• After the initial installation, be sure to check the operation by filling the sump with

water and observing the pump operation through one full cycle.

• For continuous duty operation, the pump must be submerged at least 3/4 of the depth

of the pump at all times.

• In instances where the discharge line is exposed to freezing temperatures, the pipe

must be sloped downward so any remaining water will drain out.  Failure to do so will
prevent water from exiting the sump and damage the pump if the line freezes.

Installation Instructions

Prior to Installation

1. Visually inspect your pump.  Products may be damaged during shipping.  If the product

has been damaged, contact your place of purchase or Glentronics, Inc. before
installation.

2. Thoroughly read the instructions provided to learn specific details regarding installation

and use.  This manual should be retained for future reference.
