Motor Control
It is your responsibility to contact a qualified
electrician to assure that the electrical installation is ade-
quate and in conformance with all national and local codes
and ordinances.
Determine the correct overload setting required to protect
the motor (see motor starter manufacturerʼs recommenda-
tions). Select fuses, motor protective switches or thermal
protective switches to provide protection. Fuses act as
short circuit protection for the motor, not as protection
against overload. Incoming line fuses help to withstand
the motorʼs starting current. Motor starters with thermal
magnetic overload or circuit
breakers protect motor from overload or reduced
voltage conditions.
The wiring diagram supplied with the product provides
required electrical information. Check that power source is
correct to properly operate the dual-voltage motors.
Correct installation is your responsibility. Make sure you
have the proper installation conditions and that installa-
tion clearances do not block air flow. Proper guards
should be installed to prevent contact with moveable
parts of this pump. Do Not lift the unit by the fan shroud.
The unit should be lifted by means of the eye bolt.
Blocking air flow over the product in
any way can cause the product to overheat.
Some models are equipped with glass
jars. Proper measures should be taken to guard against
the fragmenting or braking of glass if an alternative mate-
rial is not used. If hazard is ignored severe personal
injury or death can occur.
INSTALLATION
Accessories
The productʼs internal intake and exhaust filters will pro-
vide adequate filtration in most applications. Check filters
periodically and replace when necessary. All units should
have an intake and exhaust filter to prevent contaminants
from entering the pump or the pneumatic system. Please
consult your Gast Distributor/Representative for additional
filter recommendations.
