Installation, Operation & Maintenance Manual
SECTION 2 - INSTALLATION AND OPERATION
2.1.2 Electrical Connections
NOTE:
Review precautions in Section 1.
2.1.3 Line Voltage
Hard wire red lead and white lead to a Power
Source to the proper voltage as indicated on the
motor nameplate. Connect only to a source of
constant power, not an intermittent source such
as a fan or limit control circuit.
2.1.4 Low Voltage-Auxiliary Safety Switch
Connect the leads of auxiliary safety switch
to the thermostat control circuit of the
air conditioner/furnace. This will disrupt the
thermostat demand in a high water condition
(

SHOULD NOT BE UTILIzED IF
COOLING OR HEATING REqUIREMENTS ARE A NECESSITY.
AN ALARM SYSTEM SHOULD BE USED WITH THE AUxILIARY

2.2 OPERATION
After proper installation, the operation of the
HARTELL condensate pump is automatic. Water
is collected in the reservoir and pumped out when
the float raises to a pre-set point. As the water level
goes down the float turns off the motor at another
pre-set point. Under most circumstances the pump
requires little maintenance for efficient operation. If
a problem occurs, please refer to the maintenance
instructions below.
