SECTION B: GENERAL INFORMATION
B-1) To the Purchaser:
Congratulations! You are the owner of one of the finest pumps
on the market today. Barnes
®
Pumps are products
engineered and manufactured of high quality components.
Over one hundred years of pump building experience along
with a continuing quality assurance program combine to
produce a pump which will stand up to the toughest
applications.
This Barnes Pumps, Inc. manual will provide helpful
information concerning installation, maintenance, and proper
service guidelines.
B-2) Receiving:
Upon receiving the pump, it should be inspected for damage
or shortages. If damage has occurred, file a claim immediately
with the company that delivered the pump. If the manual is
removed from the packaging, do not lose or misplace.
B-3) Storage:
Short Term-
Barnes Pumps are manufactured for efficient
performance following short inoperative periods in storage.
For best results, pumps can be retained in storage, as factory
assembled, in a dry atmosphere with constant temperatures
for up to six (6) months.
Long Term-
Any length of time exceeding six (6) months, but
not more than twenty-four (24) months. The units should be
stored in a temperature controlled area, a roofed over walled
enclosure that provides protection from the elements (rain,
snow, wind-blown dust, etc.), and whose temperature can be
maintained b40 deg. F and +120 deg. F. (4.4 - 49°C)
If extended high humidity is expected to be a problem, all
exposed parts should be inspected before storage and all
surfaces that have the paint scratched, damaged, or worn
should be recoated with a water base, air dry enamel paint.
All surfaces should then be sprayed with a rust-inhibiting oil.
Pump should be stored in its original shipping container. On
initial start up, rotate impeller by hand to assure seal and
impeller rotate freely. If it is required that the pump be installed
and tested before the long term storage begins, such
installation will be allowed provided:
1.) The pump is not installed under water for more than
one (1) month.
2.) Immediately upon satisfactory completion of the test,
the pump is removed, thoroughly dried, repacked in the
original shipping container, and placed in a temperature
controlled storage area.

SECTION C: INSTALLATION
C-1) Location:
These pumping units are self-contained and are especially
designed to handle septic tank effluent, nonexplosive and
noncorrosive liquids and shall
NOT
be installed in locations
classified as hazardous in accordance with the National
Electrical Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70 or Canadian Electric
Code (CEC). They will provide sufficient pressure to pump
material through small diameter, pipe to gravity interceptors,
treatment plants or remote leach fields. Never install the
pump in a trench, ditch or hole with a dirt bottom; the legs will
sink into the dirt and the suction will become plugged.
C-1.1) Submergence:
THe pump should always be operated in the submerged
condition and the sump liquid level should never be less than
dimension "A" in Figure 1.
C-2) Discharge:
Discharge piping should be as short as possible. Both a check
valve and a shut-off valve are recommended for each pump
being used. The check valve is used to prevent backflow into
the sump.Excessive backflow can cause flooding and/or
damage to the pump. The shut-off valve is used to stop
system flow during pump or check valve servicing.
Barnes Effluent Pumps can be installed by one of two
methods: (1) the flex hose system, most commonly used in
interceptor tanks and (2) the stainless rail package and
stainless rail for concrete wet wells, designed to allow the
pump to be installed or removed without requiring personnel
to enter the wet well.
