PUTTING THE UNIT INTO SER
VICE
1.
Assure that the unit is piped in accordance with instructions
in this manual.
2. Isolate tank before performing any system leak test. Do not
pressurize the tank as part of the leak test. Failure to do this
can result in serious injury or death.
3. Check floats and alternators for free operation.
4. Wire unit per National Electrical Code. See representative
wiring diagrams.
5. Install drain plugs.
6. Fill receiver half full of water to prime pump(s) and prevent
possible damage to pump seals. Avoid freezing conditions
after unit receiver has been filled.
7. Check for proper rotation of all three phase motors.
Rotation must be clockwise looking down on the motor as
indicated by directional arrow on pump casting. If pump
runs backwards, interchange two wires (3 phase only).
8. Throttle plug cock in discharge line until pressure at pump
(while pump is discharging) approaches pump rated pres-
sure. Tighten plug nut to secure adjustment.
9. Remove start-up label (below) from panel (if applicable)
after complying with instructions.
10. If possible, observe operation thru several cycles.
