INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
c. Tie a rope or chain to the pump handle and
bring out of the top of the pit for ease of pump
removal. Do not lift pump by power cords or
plumbing. Have a union installed on plumbing at
the top of the pit. Position union so it can easily
be reached and opened for pump removal.
14. The High Level Control Float FS1 (black, normally
open) is the upper fl oat which controls the upper
limits of the sump. It prevents the sump from fl ood-
ing by opening SV1, the rain water solenoid valve.
Float tether length must be a minimum of 2" long.
Position the upper most point of fl oat a few inches
below top of pit. The Fresh Water Make-up Float FS2
(grey, normally closed) controls the lower limits of
the sump. It prevents the sump from running dry by
opening SV2, the fresh water solenoid valve. Turn-on
point for the Fresh Water Make-up Float must be at
least 8" above the suction inlet of sump pump. The
further the water must travel before reaching the
sump, the higher the fl oat must be placed above the
suction intake. On three phase units, a third fl oat is
needed to protect the sump pump from the possibility
of running dry. Position the Low Water Protector Float
#7 (grey, normally closed) 6" above the suction inlet
of sump pump. Single phase sump pumps have a
fl oat built into them.
Floats must travel their complete arc without:
Water going over the top of the pit.
Touching sidewalls or bottom.
The pit running out of water.
Interfering with electrical wiring, plumbing, bottom
or sidewalls of sump, or any object. Attach the
fl oats to the PVC line on the sump pump.
Check to assure the fl oats can operate freely.
(See Installation View.)
15. Run the electrical cords from the sump pump and
fl oats to the electrical junction boxes near the inlet
line and attach wires. If the sump pump and fl oats
are located farther then 20 feet from the electrical
junction boxes, then have an electrician install water
tight junction boxes with conduit and proper sized
wire to extend the electrical connections.
16. Connect the fresh water line (3/4" GHM garden hose
not provided) to the “Fresh Water Inlet” port on the
water panel (see Water Panel Illustration).
17. Connect the “Outlet to Pressure Washers” to your
pressure washer by using a 5/8" garden hose (not
provided). Valve #7 behind the water panel should
remain closed until start-up. You may need a 1" line to
obtain a higher fl ow. If you are going a great distance
or using a lot of elbows, you may not get full fl ow.
18. Connect the “Rain Water Overfl ow” to the sewer or
storage (line not provided). Valve #8 behind the water
panel should remain halfway open.
CAUTION: Discharge Permits are required and
must be obtained before any treated water is
discharged.
ATTENTION: Des permis de déversement sont
requis et doivent être obtenus avant de procéder
au déchargement de toute eau traitée.
19. Connect a hose to “Rinse Water” outlet if it is to be
used. Make sure valve #6 behind the water panel
stays closed until rinse water is needed (hose not
provided).
NOTE:
The use of rinse water in a closed loop
system will overfi ll the system and will lead to an
overfl ow situation causing the rainwater overfl ow
valve to open.
20. Run the "Return/Backwash" line back to the collec-
tion pit or fi rst pit where the water will be collected.
This is very important so that there is no stagnant
water when recycling and also to give more set-
ting for the backwash water. If not done properly, it
could void warranty. Run at least a 2" line if above
ground and 3" if below ground. The sludge tub and
oil decanter barrel are plumbed together and run to
the return line. Any back pressure could overfl ow
the sludge tub and/or oil decanter barrel. A separate
return line for the sludge tub and oil decanter barrel
may be needed , the sludge tub can be elevated or
a check valve can be installed.
