PUMP MODELS — The D2C20-21 pumps are 230
volt, single phase, 3450 rpm. The D2C20-23 pumps
are 230 volt, three phase, 3450 rpm.
PACKAGING — Each pump is packaged with 10
feet of power cord in a carton that is marked with
Model Number and Engineering Number. Longer
cords are available, consult catalog.
INSTRUCTIONS — Instructions cover only the
pump unit. Separate instructions for the electrical
control panel and basin packaged system are
included with these items. Complete disassembly
instructions are furnished only to authorized service
stations.
CAUTION — PUMP IS NOT TO BE DISASSEMBLED
IN THE FIELD EXCEPT AT CERTIFIED SERVICE
STATIONS OR AT FACTORY. WARRANTY IS VOID
IF PUMP IS TAKEN APART FOR ANY REASON
EXCEPT
TO REPLACE GRINDER IMPELLER AND GRINDER
RING WHICH IS COVERED IN
THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
DESCRIPTION OF PUMP — Figure 1 shows
cutaway of pump with parts called out. This pump
is intended to grind and pump all normal sewage for
home use. It will also handle reasonable quantities
of disposable diapers, sanitary napkins, paper
towels, rubber material, glass, wood,
plastic, string, cigarette butts and other material
not normally found in sewage.
Pump is of heavy duty construction, and submersible
type for long life when pumping ground sewage.
Motor is capacitor start, capacitor run for single
phase. Capacitors and start relay are mounted in the
electrical control box. All single phase motors must
have special electrical control box furnished by Delta
Manufacturing.
INSTALLING SINGLE PHASE MOTORS WITH
CONTROLS OTHER THAN MANUFACTURERS
VOIDS WARRANTY.
THREE PHASE MOTORS MUST HAVE PROPERLY
SIZED OVERLOADS IN CONTROL PANEL OR
WARRANTY IS VOID.
INSPECTING PUMP — Before making any piping or
electrical connections check pump for any shipping
damage and turn grinder impeller to be sure it is
free. DO NOT TURN IMPELLER WITH FINGERS
AS EDGES ARE SHARP. Use socket wrench in the
impeller screw.
CAUTION — After pump is installed, NEVER
WORK ON MOTOR OR GRINDER UNIT WITHOUT
DISCONNECTING MOTOR LEAD WIRES FROM
CONTROL PANEL. DON’T RELY ON OPENING
CIRCUIT BREAKER ONLY.
Pump has two oil-lled chambers: 1) the motor and
ball bearings and, 2) the seal chamber — for long life
and best heat transfer.
The lower seal above the pump impeller acts as
a buer for upper seal that holds oil in the motor
chamber. If lower seal leaks for any reason, water
enters the seal chamber. If motor has the seal leak
detector, the electrode will contact the water and close
the circuit to the red seal light in the control panel
indicating motor must be serviced before upper seal
fails.
MOTOR OVERLOAD PROTECTION — The motor is
provided with an on-winding overload switch. If motor
overloads or overheats for any reason, the switch
opens, stopping motor. As soon as the motor cools to
normal temperature the switch closes and restarts the
motor.
MOTOR POWER CORDS — Pump models with the
seal leak detector use a 5 conductor #14 gauge cord.
The three power conductors are BLACK, WHITE, RED,
the BROWN conductor connects to the seal leak probe
and GREEN conductor connects to the ground screw
inside the cord cap.
With 14/5 cords the BLACK and WHITE are main
winding leads and the RED is for start winding.
CORD SEAL — The lines from the motor chamber are
sealed with a rubber sealing grommet that prevents
oil from leaking into the cord cap compartment. If
necessary to replace power cord, the sealing grommet
must not be loosened. This wire seal is removed only
for complete motor repair that must be done at an
authorized motor repair shop.
IMPORTANT — Ground wires must be connected in
the control box to grounding bar, which is connected
to a good outside ground. MOTOR IS NOT SAFE
UNLESS GROUNDED.
INSTALLING PUMP IN SUMP BASIN — Complete
installation and piping instructions are included with the
sump basin package.
SINGLE PHASE CONTROL BOX — Single phase
pumps must use the Delta control box. Warranty is
void if other than Delta single phase control box is
used.
THREE PHASE CONTROL BOX — Any suitable three
phase control equipment can be used for simplex
or duplex operation. These control boxes are also
available from Delta. If other than Delta box is used,
overload heaters must be selected in accordance with
full load amp ratings given in these instructions.
