DESCRIPTION
This pump is recommended for use in basins or lift stations, and is suitable
for pumping sewage, effluent, wastewater, and other non-explosive, non-
corrosive liquids. It can handle 2" spherical solids.
Little Giant offers a complete line of float switches and liquid level control
systems for automatic operation along with a complete line of alarms,
basins, covers, and check valves.
SPECIFICATIONS
Discharge Size: 3" FNPT
Handling
Capabilities: S Series — 2" spherical solids
Pump Housing: Cast Iron
Volute: Cast Iron
Impeller: Non-clog brass with pressure relief vanes
Motor: 3200 RPM with automatic overload protection
Hardware: 300 Series Stainless Steel
Bearing: Ball
Shaft Seal: Mechanical, spring loaded, rotating carbon with Nitrile
boot and stationary ceramic seat, with secondary Nitrile
exclusion seal
Power Cord: 14 AWG 3-conductor, copper, stranded
Cooling: The motor housing contains a cooling oil to provide
cooling for the motor and to lubricate bearings and
seals. These pumps are capable of operating with the
motor housing partially exposed for extended periods of
time, providing sufficient motor cooling and bearing
lubrication. However, for the best cooling and longest
motor life, the liquid level being pumped should nor-
mally be above the top of the cast iron motor housing.
SAFETY GUIDELINES
Read all instructions and Safety Guidelines thoroughly. Failure to follow
the guidelines and instructions could result in serious bodily injury and/or
property damage.

WARNING: Risk of electric shock. This pump is supplied with a grounding
conductor. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected
only to a properly grounded, grounding-type receptacle.
When a pump is in a basin, etc., do not touch motor, pipes or water until unit
is unplugged or shut off. If your installation has water or moisture present, do
not touch wet area until all power has been turned off. If shut-off box is not
accessible, call the electric company to shut off service to the house, or call
your local fire department for instructions. Failure to follow this warning can
result in fatal electrical shock.
The flexible jacketed cord assembly mounted to the pump must not be
modified in any way, with the exception of shortening the cord to fit into a
control panel.
Any splice between the pump and the control panel must be made within a
junction box and mounted outside of the basin, and comply with the National
Electrical Code. DO NOT USE THE POWER CORD FOR LIFTING THE
PUMP.
The pump motor is equipped with an automatic resetting thermal protector
and may restart unexpectedly. Protector tripping is an indication of motor
overloading as a result of operating the pump at low heads (low discharge
restriction), excessively high or low voltage, inadequate wiring, incorrect
motor connections, or a defective motor or pump.
1. DO NOT USE TO PUMP FLAMMABLE OR EXPLOSIVE FLUIDS SUCH
AS GASOLINE, FUEL OIL, KEROSENE, ETC. FAILURE TO FOLLOW
THIS WARNING CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
2. During normal operation the sump pump is immersed in water. Also,
during rain storms, water may be present in the surrounding area of the
pump. Caution must be used to prevent bodily injury when working
near the pump:
a. Electrical power should be disconnected prior to touching, servicing
or repairing the pump.
b. To minimize possible fatal electrical shock hazard, extreme care
should be used when changing fuses. Do not stand in water while
changing fuses or insert your finger into the fuse socket.
3. Do not run the pump in a dry basin. If the pump is run in a dry basin, the
surface temperature of the pump will rise to a high level. This high level
could cause skin burns if the pump is touched and will cause serious
damage to your pump.
4. Do not oil the motor. The pump housing is sealed. A high grade dielec-
tric oil devoid of water has been put into the motor housing at the fac-
tory. Use of other oil could cause serious electric shock and/or perma-
nent damage to the pump.
5. Do not install in locations classified as hazardous in accordance with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
For automatic operation, pump must be plugged or wired into a remote float
switch or liquid level controller. Installation instructions are included with all Little
Giant switches and controllers and should be referred to for installation.
Pump will run continuously if plugged directly into an electrical outlet. Care
should be taken to prevent pump running in a dry sump.
