Zoeller 55 Serie Instrucciones De Instalación página 3

RECOMMENDED INSTALLATION FOR ALL APPLICATIONS
1. E lectrical wiring and protection must be in accordance with governing
electrical codes.
2. I nstall proper Zoeller Unicheck (combination union and check valve),
preferably just above the basin to allow easy removal of the pump
for cleaning or repair. If high head or below-cover installation is
required, use 30-0164 on 1-1/2" (DN40) pipe, 30-0152 on 2" (DN50)
pipe and 30-0160 on 3" (DN80) pipe.
3. All installations require a basin cover to prevent debris from falling into
the basin and to prevent injury.
4. W hen a Unicheck is installed, drill a 3/16" (5 mm) diameter hole in the
discharge pipe even with the top of the pump. NOTE: THE HOLE
MUST ALSO BE BELOW THE BASIN COVER AND CLEANED
PERIODICALLY. (High Head unit see "Caution" on front page). Water
stream will be visible from this hole when pump is operating.
5. S ecurely tape or clamp power cord to discharge pipe, clear of the float
mechanism(s).
6. Use a discharge pipe equivalent in diameter to the pump's discharge.

All installations must comply with all applicable electrical and plumbing codes, including, but not limited to, National Electrical Code, local, regional, and/or state plumbing
codes, etc. Not intended for use in hazardous locations.
On some installations, it may be desirable
to install an independent hanger for the
level control switches to avoid possible
hang-ups on the pumps, piping, valves,
etc. Float hangers are available from
Zoeller Company on Catalog Sheet
FM0526 or can be fabricated from
standard pipe and fittings.
