Installation
In any installation where property damage and/or personal injury might result from an inoperative or leaking pump due to power outages, discharge line blockage or any other reason, use a backup system(s).
1.Thread the discharge pipe or pipe nipple into the discharge connection.
2.If a check valve is used in a solids handling system mount the check valve in a horizontal position or at a 45° angle with the valve pivot on top. In a vertical position, solids will tend to lodge on the valve flapper and can prevent it from opening.
3.Drill a 1/16 inch hole in the discharge pipe approximately 1 inch to 2 inches above the pump discharge when a check valve is used. The hole prevents air locking of the pump at the initial
4.A gate valve should be installed in the system after the check valve. This gate valve should be a full port valve which will pass 2 inch solids or as required by state and local codes. This gate valve permits removal of the pump and/or check valve for servicing.
5.A union should be installed between the check valve and the pump so the pump can be removed with least disturbance of the piping.
6.CSE50T models are supplied with a detachable tether switch with a piggyback plug (see figure 3A). The length of the tether (distance of cord from float to clamp) should not be set shorter than
7.When a tether switch is used, rigid discharge pipe is required. If the pump is allowed to move, the tether switch could be restricted by the basin wall, preventing the pump from operating.
Before removing
pump from basin for service, always disconnect electrical power to pump and control switch. For any work on pump or switch, ALWAYS unplug the power cord. Do not just turn off circuit breaker or unscrew fuse.
