INSTALLATION
Mechanical Connections
WARNING
Coverplates protect the operator from moving
parts. Never operate the pump without coverplates
in place. Never apply electric power to the pump
without coverplates in place. Always disconnect
power before repairing or servicing.
Your pump is designed for use only with diesel fuel.
Do not use this pump for dispensing any fluids other
than those for which it was designed. Using the pump
with other fuels can damage components and void the
warranty.
All threaded fuel connections must be sealed with thread
tape or a pipe thread sealing compound approved for
use with diesel fuel.
Your pump must be mounted on a vented tank. If the
tank is not vented, contact your GPI distributor for the
correct vent cap.
This pump has a built-in check valve to keep the pump
primed. No additional check valve is required on suction
pipes shorter than 4.6 m (15 ft.). Make sure any check
valves or foot valves used are equipped with proper
pressure relief valves.
Your pump is designed to mount directly to a standard
2-inch female tank fitting. For the suction pipe, a 1-1/4-
inch galvanized steel pipe cut to length and threaded
on one end may be used. Suction pipe should extend to
within 7.6 cm (3 in.) of tank bottom. Apply thread tape to
the suction pipe thread and securely tighten the suction
pipe to the pump inlet port.
Electrical Connections
DANGER
Pump must be installed by a licensed electrician
in accordance with national, state and local elec-
trical codes. Rigid conduit must be used to install
wiring. Installation must conform to National Fire
Prevention Association (NFPA) codes 30A and 70.
Other codes may apply.
Failure to follow these wiring instructions may
result in death or serious injury from shock, fire
or explosion.
The pump must be properly grounded to avoid
personal injury. Operating an ungrounded or im-
properly grounded pump may result in death due
to electrical shock, fire or explosion.
Electrical wiring and connections must be made only by
a licensed electrician in accordance with national, state
and local electrical codes regarding Class 1, Division 1,
Group D locations. Other codes may apply.
Thread for the conduit connection at the pump electrical
box is 1/2 in.
A standard 15-amp breaker is recommended.

This pump is equipped with an auxiliary AC accessory
lead. The third wire (red) is to be used to energize a
control circuit that operates a device such as a signal
light or a solenoid operated valve. Maximum amp draw
on the control circuit is 1 amp. If you do not need this
feature, ensure that the wire is insulated and enclosed
within the electrical cavity of the pump.
CAUTION
Connect pump to the proper voltage source.
M-3295 series pumps are designed to operate on
230 VAC, 60/50 HZ. Connection to improper voltage
will damage pump. Pump is set at factory for high
voltage applications (230-volt). See wiring diagram
located inside electrical coverplate.
Wiring Details
1. Remove electrical coverplate (Figure 1). Install
conduit and cable from switchbox to pump electrical
box. Use only code specified 2-conductor cable with
ground wire.
2. Attach ground wire using the green ground screw
located inside the electrical box (Figure 2). Connect
the power cable to the pump wiring per the wiring
diagram located inside the electrical coverplate.
Secure with wire nuts.
3. Position wires inside the electrical box. Replace
electrical coverplate with all seven screws and
tighten securely.
