INTRODUCTION
EN
The shallow pan condensate unit is designed especially for ceiling mounted
units and other refrigerated air conditioners where minimum height is important.
The pump is designed to be placed directly in a holding reservoir or with a
tank supplied by the manufacturer. Pump should not be used where water
level can exceed the ON level of the pump. The pump should not be used
completely submerged. The pump is controlled by a float/switch mechanism
that automatically switches the pump on and off.
This instruction sheet primarily covers the standard models in this pump series,
but is applicable to other models in this series not listed by model number.
If the model number of your pump is not listed, use caution when ordering
replacement parts. Always give the model number of your pump when ordering
replacement parts.
Read these instructions carefully. Failure to follow these instructions voids all
warranty, and could result in bodily harm or property damage. All wiring and
plumbing must be permanent, and comply with local, state, and national electrical
codes. Shut off electrical power at the fuse box before servicing the pump.
INSTALLATION
1. Carefully unpack the pump and remove any cardboard packing restricting
the float/switch mechanism. This packing is used to restrict switch
movement during shipping.
2. This model is equipped with a reservoir tank. The tank has two holes
provided to mount the unit in a convenient location. The pump must be level
and the inlet must be below the coil drain.
1. Run flexible tubing or pipe from evaporator drain into pump holding tank.
Be sure inlet piping is sloped downward to allow gravity flow.
2. The discharge piping (Figure 1) should be flexible tubing or pipe (1/2" I.D.
maximum to prevent excessive flow back to unit). From condensate unit,
extend discharge piping straight up as high as necessary (but not above
the head/GPH of the model being installed.) From this high point, slope
discharge line down slightly to a point above drain area, then turn down
and extend to a point below or approximately level with the bottom of the
condensate unit. This will give a siphoning effect which will improve efficiency
of the condensate unit. If it is not possible to slope discharge line down, make
an inverted "U" trap directly above the pump at the highest point.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
1. Shut off electrical power at fuse box before making any connections. All
wiring must comply with local, state, and national electrical codes.
2. Connect power cord to line voltage specified on motor and nameplate.
Power cord must be connected to a constant source of power (not a fan or
other device than runs intermittently). If power cord does not have a plug,
wiring is as follows: green/yellow - ground, brown - line, blue - neutral.
1. Turn on power.
2. Test the unit after it is installed by filling the tank with water until the pump
comes on. Check the lines for leaks and kinks that will prevent full water
disposal. If water is not available, test the pump by removing the switch
screen and inserting differentiator top into switch housing bottom.
3. The volute has a small air bleed hole (near the top screw) that helps prevent
the pump from air locking. It is normal for a small amount of water to run out
of this hole during operation.
CAUTION: Do not run pump dry for more than a couple of seconds. Do not test
this way if water is present.

MAKE CERTAIN THE UNIT IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE POWER
SOURCE BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO SERVICE OR REMOVE ANY
COMPONENT!
1.
Be sure the float moves freely. Clean as necessary.
2.
Remove the three screws that attach the volute. DO NOT remove any other
screws.
3.
Lightly clean any corrosion or debris that may clog the impeller. Use brush
and penetrating oil and lightly scrape to remove encrusted material.
4.
Turn the impeller by hand to make sure it turns freely. Plug the unit in to see if
the impeller turns (see testing #2). Do not allow the pump to operate for more
than a couple of seconds. If the pump does operate, then replace the volute.
The unit should operate normally when connected to the correct voltage.
5.
If for any reason these operations do not restore the unit to full service, call
your dealer or service. Do not in any case open the sealed portion of the unit or
remove screws other than those indicated above. Do not cut the electric cord
when removing the unit from the application. Disconnect the pump from its
regular connections. Failure to follow these guidelines may void the warranty.
6. If you remove the impeller, be certain to reassemble it correctly. Impeller
spacing is gauged from backplate to impeller edge. Use the thickness of
a dime to space the impeller away from backplate. Tighten set screws on
impeller to 3 - 5 inch pounds (hand tighten).
