WARNING!
It is the installer’s responsibility to use
hoses with suitable properties. The use
of hose that is not suitable could cause
damage to the pump, operator or the
surrounding environment. Loose hose
connections can cause environmental
and safety issues, check all connections
after initial installation and on a daily
basis thereafter. Tighten if required. It is
recommended the hose is installed prior
to installing electrical supply.
• Pipe runs should be kept as straight as
possible, avoiding rising and dipping over
obstructions, shown below.
• In order to ensure good priming always keep
connections tight.
• All seals should be checked regularly and
changed if leaking, as leakage could be
dangerous.
• The pump should be installed so that the mo-
tor is protected from moisture and bilge water.
• The pump should not be run with a closed
outlet.
•
Pump is rated to IP55 Ingress Protection.
• Install the Ballast SuperKing pump in accor-
dance to ISO 10133.
• If installed in a vertical position, the motor
must be above the pump head, shown below.
This will prevent liquid from dripping onto the
motor if there is a seal leak.
Pump Unit Information:
• 33610-0107 − 1-1/4” Hose Barb, 12Vdc.
Intermittent duty cycles of 5 minutes ON and
10 minutes OFF.
Pump Application
• The pump has been designed to transfer
freshwater and seawater into ballast tanks.
• The pump is reversible, therefore freshwater
or seawater can be transferred from source to
ballast and returned from ballast to source.
• To reduce ballast, the pump will reverse to
pump ballast back over board.
• The same operation is used for ballast transfer
between two tanks.
INSTALLATION
PUMP SET-UP
• Verify that all components are present.
• Check the pump unit has not been damaged
during transit.
• Ensure inlet and outlet ports are free from dirt,
dust or packaging material.
• Ensure electrical data corresponds to those
indicated on the product label and ensure
the correct fuse is fitted in the power line (see
Technical Specifications for recommended
fuse).
• Fit a strainer on the inlet hose to prevent larg-
er debris from entering the pump, ensure this
is clean and free from dirt before use.
• Before connecting the inlet and outlet hoses,
ensure they are free from dirt.
• Secure 1-1/4” (32 mm) ID hose either directly
to the ports, using stainless steel hose clamps.
• Use spiral reinforced hose (with a smooth
internal bore) that will not collapse under suc-
tion, or rigid or semi-rigid pipework systems.
• The pump should be mounted on any flat
suitable surface.
• Fit the pump in a dry, well ventilated position
where there is full access for service.
• Use rubber grommets provided to minimize
the vibration, do not over tighten the mount-
ing screws.
• All marine pumps discharging overboard must
be installed with the overboard discharge well
above both static and heeled waterlines.
Install overboard discharge well above both
static and heeled waterlines.
