Summary  

  1. Components
    • Control Panel
    • 1- 1/4" Conduit
    • (2) 15 amp circuit breakers ((1) for Pump, (1) for Controls)
    • Handhole
    • 6" X 6" X 6" Junction Box
  2. Installation
    • The installation of the 1-1/4" conduit can be accomplished anytime after the main components are installed and before the system is backfilled.
    • The control panel can be mounted either inside or outside of the dwelling.
    • The hand hole should be placed within 6" of finish grade level, and should be relatively close to the Recirculation Tank cover.
  3. Control Panels
    • Simplex Residential: 1 pump and 3 float configuration
    • Duplex Residential: 2 pumps and 3 float configuration
    • Duplex Commercial: Up to 4 pumps and multiple float configuration
  4. Wiring
    • Simplex Wiring Diagram
    • Duplex Wiring Diagram
  5. Installation Requirements
    • Mount control panel
    • Furnish and install 1-¼" Conduit to pipe, from the junction box to the control panel and from the junction box to the recirculation tank.
    • Cut off the plugs on all float switches and pump in order to make all electrical connections in junction box. The float switches will be labeled (L= Low, M=Medium, H=High and P=Pump).
    • Snake seven (7) 12 gauge wires through the conduit coming from the control panel to the junction box. (See color schematic). Four of these wires will be for the float switches and three of the wires will be for the pump.
    • Connect all "Hot" wires in the Control Panel (Using a Circuit Breaker for the pump and a Circuit Breaker for the controls)
