8 – 9820K Startup and Test
Installation Completion Checklist
The information below should be reviewed to help verify the proper installation of the Series
9820K AST Pump Unit. If the installation does not meet the criteria listed, correct the problem
before the startup is performed.
To avoid damage to the CPU PC board, verify if the Slow Flow and Fast Flow wires are not
shorted to any conduit or chassis metal, incorrectly wired, or connected to any equipment
requiring more than stated maximum allowable current.
CAUTION
• The unit must be properly secured to the tank.
• All plumbing must be complete and tight.
• When DC pulsers are used in the pump for connecting to Gasboy fuel management
systems, AC and DC wires should not share any conduits, J-Boxes, or troughs.
• All conduit work must be complete. All J-Box covers must be secured. Conduits should
not be sealed until the wiring is verified through proper operation.
• The unit must be properly grounded.
Startup
After successfully verifying the installation against the completion check list above, the unit is
ready for startup. Follow the procedures listed below to perform an orderly startup of the
Series 9820K AST Pump Unit.
Preliminary Steps
1
All liquid-carrying lines must be checked for leaks.
2
Do not use the Gasboy pump module to remove water. Serious damage may occur.
CAUTION
Before any testing begins, remove any water in the tank through a fill opening, using a suitable
pump.
Note: A sufficient volume of fuel must be present in the tank to ensure that the liquid level is
above the bottom of the suction pipe.
