Item 63892 Specifications Electrical Rating Amperage Power Cord Length Maximum Flow @ 0′ Head Lift Maximum Head lift @ 0 GPH Flow Discharge Port 120 VAC / 60 Hz 6.4 A 8 ft 3000 GPH 22 ft 1-1/2" NPT Installation The submersible motor pump must be installed in a stationary position with either: a. A fixed pipeline or b. A flexible hose pipe. Please note! 1. Do not install the pump by suspending it unsupported from its delivery pipe or power cord. The pump must be suspended from the handle or be placed on the bottom of the basin. To ensure that the pump works properly, keep the bottom of the basin free from sludge and dirt of all kinds. 2. If the water level sinks too low, any sludge in the basin will dry out and stop the pump from starting. To help ensure the pump will start as required, check the pump regularly with start-up tests. Power Supply 1. The pump is equipped with a shock-proof plug according to regulations. The pump is designed to be connected to 120 VAC, 60 Hz GFCI protected socket. 4. 2. Make sure that the socket is sufficiently secured and is in excellent condition. WARNING! If the power cord or plug is damaged, do not use the pump. The power cord or plug may only be repaired by a certified electrician. 3. When the plug is inserted into the socket, the pump will be on standby. WARNING: To prevent death from electric shock, pump must be connected only to a GFCI protected outlet. Areas of use 1. This pump is designed to pump water only. 2. This pump is designed to be used for: Removing groundwater from basements and crawl spaces. 3. This pump should NOT be used for: Continuous run, fountain/pond water features. Removing water from swimming pools or spas. Septic or sewage systems. 4. This pump can also be used to transfer water (e.g. household, farming, plumbing). Item 63892 For technical questions, please call 1-888-866-5797. Page 3 Installation Instructions 1. Construct a basin that is at least 18" deep and at least 14" in diameter. IMPORTANT: Sump basin must be a minimum of 14 inches in diameter for Pump to function properly. Sump Basin at least 18" deep Inlet Pipe at least 14" diameter Figure A: Sump Basin 4. Attach a discharge pipe to the Pump Outlet. Note: Wrap all threaded connections with PTFE thread seal tape. 5. To prevent excessive cycling from backflow of water, install a check valve (not included) onto the discharge pipe. This prevents water from flowing back after the pump shuts off. Install according to manufacturer’s instructions. Mount the check valve according to check valve label to avoid the valve flapper getting stuck. GFCI-Protected Receptacle To discharge (away from foundation) Check Valve Pump Cord 2. Position Pump on solid surface. When positioning make sure the Float Switch is away from the inlet pipe and at least 1 inch away from all obstructions throughout its movement. Discharge Pipe 3. Fit a sump cover with a hole for the output pipe and a hole for the power cord. Thread the Power Cord through the hole, but do not plug it in yet. Set the sump cover aside for now. Pump Outlet Note: The sump cover can also be fitted with a vent pipe, if desired. Pump Cord Sump Cover Pump Float Switch Figure C: Outlet Pipe and Plug 6. Connect additional Discharge Pipe as needed to direct the water discharge at least 3 feet away from the foundation. Slope the discharge pipe downward, away from the foundation. The discharge should be kept as short as possible with a minimum number of turns. IMPORTANT: Do not exceed the Maximum Head Lift @ 0 GPH Flow of the Pump. Figure B: Pump Position Page 4 For technical questions, please call 1-888-866-5797. Item 63892 Operation After reading these instructions, consider the following points before starting the pump: 1. Verify that the pump rests on the floor of the basin. 2. Verify that the discharge pipe is properly connected. 4. Verify that the electrical socket is GFCI protected and in good condition. Test GFCI protected outlet before use. 3. Verify that the electrical connection is 120 VAC, 60 Hz. 5. Verify that water and moisture cannot get near the power supply socket. 6. Verify that the pump is installed so as to prevent running dry. Maintenance TO PREVENT SERIOUS INJURY FROM ACCIDENTAL OPERATION: Unplug the Pump from its electrical outlet before performing any inspection, maintenance, or cleaning procedures. If the pump is moved during operation, flush it out with clean water after every use. Quarterly Maintenance For frequent use, or dirty areas, more frequent maintenance is required. 1. Clean sludge and debris from the bottom of the basin. 4. Make sure discharge pipe is free from leaks. 2. Clean sludge/debris from inlet area. 5. Make sure check valve is functioning properly. 3. If the pump housing cannot be cleaned from the outside, it must be thoroughly cleaned. Unplug the power cord before maintenance. Dismantle the bottom part of the pump as follows: 6. Manually operate flow switch to determine that pump turns on/off as intended. a. Remove Screws (8) and Volute (7). b. Hold the Shaft (4) with a flat head screwdriver and turn the Impeller (5) counterclockwise to unscrew and remove. c. Clean the Impeller with clean water. d. Remove debris from around the Shaft and inside the pump housing. e. Reassemble in reverse order.
