INSTALLING THE ALARM
1. Mount alarm box using existing upper and lower mounting tabs on the exterior of the
enclosure.
Note:
Screws are to be located over wall stud or used with a wall anchor sized
for the #8 x 1.25” self-tapping screw.
2. Remove screw from front of lower cover.
3. Lift bottom of lower cover out slightly, as shown in Figure C.
4. Slide lower cover down until it is clear of the upper cover and remove, as shown in Figure C.
5. Determine “conduit-in” location on alarm as shown in Figure B. See bottom of enclosure for
cord placement indicator marks.
Note:
When used with a pump application, connect alarm
to a circuit separate from the pump circuit. This allows the alarm to continue to operate if the
pump circuit fails.

shown in Figure B.
10. Place ground wire under screw in ground termination post as shown in Figure B.
Note:
If
terminal block option is used, attach ground wire as shown in Figure A of Terminal Block
Option Wiring Instructions.
11. If remote device is used, connect wires to appropriate terminal block positions labeled “N/O,
COMMON, N/C” on circuit board as shown in Figure B.
12. Replace lower cover onto alarm, reversing steps 2-4. Be sure the lower cover is fully seated
prior to reinstalling the lower cover screw.
