SUMP PUMP WITH VERTICAL FLOAT
V-150VF
INSTALLATION MANUAL
PART 1: PUMP LOCATION
Let’s get down to business.
Note:
Ensure the pump is being installed by a
qualified, licensed personnel. The pump should
be in good condition and should be used in a
residential application.
1. Ensure you have access to a 10A
weatherproof outdoor powerpoint in a dry
and flood free location. Do not plug the
pump in.
2. Position your sump pump in the
tank/pit/well. If using a pit, we recommend
using a minimum pit size of 300 (L) x 300
(W) x 400 (H) to allow enough space for the
float to rise.
Note:
If needed, loop the nylon or steel
rope through the top to lower the Sump Pump.
Do not use the power cable or the float to
lower the Sump Pump.
3. Check the set up so far. The surface the
pump sits on should be solid and there
should be enough clearance between
the base of the pit and suction inlet to
prevent sediment and debris from entering
the pump.
PART 2: DISCHARGE
SET UP
Now that your sump pump is
positioned, it’s time to set up the
discharge pipework.
Ensure you have selected the position for your
discharge outlet on the pit, cut a hole to size
on the pit and then secure a tank outlet
(or similar).
Note:
The length and the diameter of the
discharge hose impact the pressure and flow
rate the sump pump can deliver.
Note:
All components used must have a
pressure rating that exceeds the maximum
pressure of the pump by an appropriate
safety factor.
1. Wrap a hex nipple in Teflon and fit it to the
tank outlet (or similar).
2. Fit a check valve to the hex nipple.
The check valve will prevent fluid from
re-circulating when the pump has stopped.
3. Connect the discharge pipe to the outlet
using one of the following options
a. If you are using a hard discharge pipe:
i. Wrap a barrel union with Teflon tape.
ii. Fit the barrel union to the check valve
to facilitate easy removal if needed.
In accordance with AS3350.2.41
we are obliged to inform you that
this pump is not to be used by
children or infirm persons and
must not be used as a toy.
The pump must be supplied by
an outlet protected by a residual
current device or earth leakage
circuit breaker with a maximum
rated residual current of 30mA.
