The S4 RC submersible pumps

are supplied for 3 phase and for

200, 230, 460 and 575 volts.

Pump is supplied with 30 feet

of power cord and/or 30 feet of

auxiliary control cord. onger

cable lengths can be furnished but

must be specified at time of order.

Power cable is 3 & 4 wire with

sep a rate wire for ground. Be sure

green wire is con nect ed to a good

ground such as water pipe or

ground stake. The aux il ia ry cable

for seal failure and heat sensors is

also 4 wire color coded.

All motors have heat sensor

units embedded in the motor

winding to detect excessive heat.

The heat sen sors are set to trip

at 105°C, so will not operate if

dangerous heat occurs. The sensors

automatically reset when motor

cools to safe temperature.

The sensors are connected in

series with the motor starter coil

so that the starter is tripped if heat

sensor opens. The motor starter is

equipped with 3 leg overload

heaters so all normal overloads

are protected by the starter.

the seal chamber so if any water

enters the chamber through the

first seal the electrode will be

energized and a signal will be

transmitted to the sensing unit at

Typical duplex systems use three

con trols: one set at turn-off, one

set at turn-on for one pump, and

one set for turn-on for two pumps.

Pumps alternate op er a tion on each

successive cycle.

Two pumps operate together only

if sump level rises to the third or

override control. The override

control also brings on the second

pump in case of failure of the

first pump. Extra floats with

ap pro pri ate controls can be

supplied for alarm functions.

Triplex systems use four controls:

one set at turn-off, one set

at turn-on for one pump, one set

at turn-on for two pumps, and

one set at turn-on for three

pumps. Pumps alternate each

successive cycle.

Three pumps operate together

only if sump level rises to the

fourth control (second override).

This control also brings on the

third pump in case of failure

of either or both of the first

two pumps.

.#4/10641.5

The alarm level is usually set

above the override level so the

alarm will signal only if the override

level is exceeded. However, some

engineers prefer to have the alarm

level set below the override level

as it is possible for one pump to

fail and the other pump to operate

on the override level with the

sump level never reach ing the

alarm level. This is par tic u lar ly

true in cases of low inflow ca pac i ty.

be supplied. On 3 phase pumps

the heaters must be sized in

ac cor dance with the nameplate

amps on the motor housing. The

amp draw on these submersible

motors is slightly higher than

a corresponding horsepower

A check valve must be installed

on each pump. A gate or plug

valve in each pump discharge

line is also recommended. This

valve should be installed on the

discharge side of the check valve

so if necessary to service the

check valve the line pressure can

be cut off. Single pump systems

are sometimes installed without a

check valve where it is desirable

to self-drain the discharge line to

prevent freezing. This can be done

only with short discharge lines;

otherwise water will return to the

sump and cause short cycling of

the pump.

If electrical control panel is to be

set remote from the pump sump, a

NEMA 4 junction box should be

used to make power and control

connections. The Hydromatic

NEMA 4 junction box is provided

with compression con nec tors for

sealing all wires. No sealing

compound is needed to make

con nec tions waterproof.

Wiring diagrams are provided

with panel for making connections.

An extra set of diagrams is

included so that one set can be

used in the sump when making

connections. The size wire to use

from panel to sump depends on

motor size and distance in feet.

The table on page 3 can be used as

a guide for wire size.

Be sure each wire is checked out

so that wrong connection will

not be made. An ohmmeter or

Megger can be used to check wire

continuity.

The controls are supported by a

mounting bracket that is attached

to sump wall or cover or to the

NEMA 4 junction box.

Cord snubbers are used to hold

the cord in place. Control lever

can be changed at any time

by loosening the snubber and

readjusting cord length.

In either simplex or duplex system

the lower or turn-off control is

set just above the top of volute

so that the volute will always be

submerged during the pumping

cycle. The second or turn-on

control is set about 24 inches

above the lower turn-off control.

More distance between turn-on

and turn-off controls can be used,

but sewage may become septic

and excessive solids may collect

for the pump to handle. A frequent

pumping cycle is recommended

for best operation.

If an alarm system is used, this

control is usually set about 6 inches

above the override control.

Some engineers as described

previously prefer to have the

alarm control set below the

override control.

Phase converters are generally

not recommended but in cases

where only single phase current is

available, phase converter can be

used. Be sure to size the phase

converter large enough for the

amp draw specified on the motor

nameplate, not necessarily by

motor horsepower. The warranty

on all three phase submersible

motors is void if operated with

single phase power through a

phase converter and 3 leg ambient

compensated extra-quick trip

overload protectors are not used.

As the motors are oil filled no

lu bri ca tion or other maintenance

is required.

If a seal failure unit is used, no

at ten tion is necessary as long

as the seal shows satisfactory

operation.

If seal failure is not used, the

pump should be lifted once every

two years and the oil be drained

from the seal chamber to check

for water.

If the pump is used on a

Hydr-O-Rail system, it should be

lifted once every six months and

checked for corrosion and wear.

Generally these pumps give very

reliable service and can be expected

to operate for years on normal

sewage pumping without failure.

All S4 RC submersible motors

can be serviced (out of warranty)

in the field by any reliable motor

service shop. Any pump (in

warranty) must be returned to the

factory for service or re paired in

an authorized Hydromatic service

center. Charg es will not be

allowed if (in warranty) pump is

taken to a motor repair shop that is

not an authorized Hydromatic

service center.

When field service is performed

on a pump, these instructions

If motor winding is burned or

shorted, it can be rewound or

replaced with new factory wound

stator. Refer to sectional drawing

of pump and motor and use the

following steps to remove and

replace stator:

1. If stator only is damaged

it may not be necessary to

completely dismantle pump as

stator and housing can be lifted

from pump without disturbing

seals or bear ings.

2. Drain all oil from upper housing,

remove drain plug in bottom of

stator housing and remove

plug in top of housing to allow

air to enter.

3. After chamber is drained,

remove hold-down bolts and

lift off. Use care in lifting as

the seal failure connecting wire

must be dis con nect ed before

housing is com plete ly removed.

4. Set assembly on bench and

re move connection box. When

box is lifted off, connection

wires to motor will be

exposed. These wires will

probably be burned, but each

wire is tagged with a metal

marker giving wire number.

Cut the wires.

If the leads to the connection

box are burned, a complete

new con nec tion box with

new wire must be used. The

wires are potted in with

sealing compound and a new

unit must be obtained from

the factory.

5. The stator is held in the

housing with a bolted-in

end ring and an outside

locking screw to prevent

stator from turning.

6. After ring is removed, turn

hous ing upright and bump on

hard wood blocks. This should

jar the stator loose and allow it

to drop out.

7. Thoroughly clean housing

before replacing new stator.

Replace stator and make all

wire con nec tions toconnection

box before replacing housing

on pump. This is important as

leads must be tucked behind

the windings by using hands

up through rotor core.

oil is clean and no water

is present, seals can

be considered sat is fac to ry

to reuse.

9. Check top bearing. If clean

and does not turn rough,

bearings can be reused and it

is not necessary to completely

dismantle pump to change

bearings. If bearings are

damaged with dirt or heat,

they must be replaced. See

additional instructions on

replacing seals and bearings.

Remember to reinstall the

upper bearing load spring.

10. Before replacing stator

housing be sure outside lock

screw is in place and that O-

ring is used under head of bolt.

A leak here can cause a motor

failure. If a new stator has

been used it will be necessary

to drill into the stator

lamination for a holding

socket for bolt (29⁄64 dia. drill,

1⁄2" deep, and 1⁄2-20 UNF, 3⁄8

deep into the stator). This

holding spot is drilled through

the bolt hole when the stator is

bolted in place with the end

ring.

11. Replace stator housing onto

seal chamber and bolt in place.

Permatex on threads. Install

air valve in top plug opening

of motor housing and charge

housing with about 10 psi of

air. Be sure air is dry. Do not

use air line where water may

be trapped in the line.

Submerge complete unit under

water and check for leaks.

14. Refill motor chamber with oil.

8. Remove snap ring that holds

upper seal. Pull seal if it is

free. If not free, it can be

forced off when shaft is

removed.

9. Remove 4 bolts that hold

bearing housing in place (on

units built prior to 2/14/78).

Set assembly in upright

position and bump end of

shaft on hardwood block. This

will push the bearing from the

housing and will force upper

seal from shaft.

10. Use bearing puller to remove

bearings. Replace with new

bear ings. Press only on inner

face of bearing when

replacing. Pressing on outer

face can damage the bearing.

Bearings are standard size

that can be obtained from

any bearing supply house or

can be obtained from

Hydromatic factory.

11.    Do not use

any of the old seal parts.

12. Thoroughly clean all castings

before replacing seals. One

grain of dirt between the seal

faces can cause failure.

13. Examine all O-rings for nicks

before using.

14. Be sure key is in place in

notch of shaft sleeve to

prevent sleeve from turning.

15. Use ocktite®on socket head

locking screw in end of shaft.

16. Before refilling chamber with

oil, air test as described above.

17. Refill both chambers with oil

as described above.

18. Always check all leads with

high voltage or with Megger

for grounds before operating

the pump.

1. This indicates heat sensors in

the motor are tripping due to

excessive heat. Impeller may

be partially clogged giving a

sustained overload but not

high enough to trip overload

heater switch.

2. Motor may be operating out of

liquid due to a failed level

control. All Hydromatic

S4 RC submersible motors

can operate for extended periods

out of water without burning

up the winding, but the heat

sensors give motor prolonged

life by controlling winding
