Your Pump House Condensate Pump is designed as an automatic condensate
removal pump for pumping away room temperature condensate water dripping
from air conditioner/refrigeration evaporative coils. The pump is controlled by a
float/switch mechanism which turns the pump on to discharge the water when
approximately 55mm depth of water collects in a tank. The pump automatically
switches off when the tank drains to approximately 30mm deep.
The Pump House Condensate Pump you have purchased is a high quality
product that has been engineered to give you long and reliable service.
This pump is carefully packaged, inspected and tested to ensure safe operation
and delivery. When you receive the pump, examine it carefully to determine
there are no broken or damaged parts that may have occurred during
shipment. If damage has occurred, please contact your supplier. They will
assist you in replacement or repair, if required.
READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL,
OPERATE OR SERVICE THE PH-2L PUMP. KNOW THE PUMP APPLICATION,
LIMITATIONS AND POTENTIAL HAZARDS. PROTECT YOURSELF AND OTHERS
BY OBSERVING ALL SAFETY INFORMATION. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH
INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY
DAMAGE! RETAIN INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. INSTALLATION
AND CONNECTIONS ARE TO BE MADE BY A QUALIFIED PERSON.
SAFETY GUIDELINES
DO NOT USE TO PUMP FLAMMABLE OR EXPLOSIVE FLUIDS SUCH AS
PETROL, FUEL OIL, KEROSENE, ETC. DO NOT USE IN EXPLOSIVE
ATMOSPHERES. PUMP SHOULD BE USED WITH LIQUIDS COMPATIBLE
WITH PUMP COMPONENT MATERIALS.
DO NOT HANDLE PUMP WITH WET HANDS OR WHEN STANDING ON WET
OR DAMP SURFACE, OR IN WATER. THIS PUMP IS SUPPLIED WITH AN
EARTHING CONDUCTOR AND/OR EARTHING TYPE ATTACHMENT PLUG. TO
REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK, BE CERTAIN THAT IT IS
CONNECTED TO A PERMANENT EARTH.
FOR INSTALLATIONS WHERE PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR PERSONAL
INJURY MIGHT RESULT FROM AN INOPERATIVE OR LEAKING PUMP DUE TO
POWER CUTS, DISCHARGE LINE BLOCKAGE, OR ANY OTHER REASON, A
BACKUP SYSTEM(S) AND/OR ALARM SHOULD BE USED.
SUPPORT THE PUMP AND PIPING WHEN ASSEMBLING AND WHEN
INSTALLED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE PIPING TO BREAK, PUMP TO
FAIL, MOTOR BEARING FAILURES, ETC.
INSTALLATION
1. Carefully unpack the pump. Remove the cardboard packing from the motor
cover air slots. Carefully slide the packing away from the pump. This
packing is used to prevent switch movement during shipment (Fig. 1).
INTRODUCTION
2.
Mounting the pump: The tank has two slots provided to mount the unit
on a vertical surface such as an adjacent wall. The slots are located on
the ends of the tank (Fig. 2). Pump must be level and the inlet must be
below the coil drain. Conduit fittings are not compatible with the plastic
pump housing.
3. The pump should not be installed in a manner that will subject it to
splashing or spraying.
4. This pump is not intended for use inside air plenums.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
1. Shut off electrical power at fuse box before making any connections. All wiring
must comply with local codes.
2.
Line voltage: Connect pump to voltage specified on label located on
pump. Wiring is as follows:
Live (Line) - Brown
Neutral - Blue
Earth - Yellow/Green
3. If fused plug is used, a 1.0 amp fuse is recommended.
WATER DRAIN CONNECTIONS
Inlet Water Connections
1. Position pump beneath a/c or refrigeration condensate drain so that
condensate water flows into pump inlet freely (use any of the three
openings provided).
2. The pump will accept up to three drain lines, although care should be
used to make certain that total inflow does not exceed outflow of pump.
If more water drains into the pump than the rated output of the pump,
tank may overflow.
3. Keep plugs in unused pump inlet openings to prevent debris from falling
into the pump tank.
Outlet Water Connections
1. Connect 3/8" I.D. tubing to the discharge adapter (item 5, figure 4). For best
results, secure tubing with clamps (not provided) but do not pinch collapse
or otherwise restrict the tubing.
2. Tubing should rise vertically but not exceed the maximum shut off head
(pumping height) of 4.8 metres above the pump.
3. At highest point angle tubing horizontally and create a downward slope
to drainage point. Do not sharply bend or twist the tubing in a way that
might result in collapse or restriction of the tubing. Creating a
downward slope will allow water to drain by gravity and keep tubing
empty of water.
4. If it is not possible to create a downward slope, try to create an inverted “U”
trap directly above the pump at the highest point.
