Safety Guidelines
This instruction manual provides you with the information required to safely own and operate your product.
Retain these instructions for future reference.
The product you have purchased is of the highest quality workmanship and material and has been engineered to give you long and
reliable service.
This product has been carefully tested, inspected, and packaged to ensure safe delivery and operation. Please examine your item(s)
carefully to ensure that no damage occurred during shipment.
If damage has occurred, please contact the place of purchase. They will assist you in replacement or repair, if required.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected only to a properly grounded, grounding type receptacle.
When a pump is in a basin, etc., do not touch motor, pipes or water until unit is unplugged or shut off. If your installation has
water or moisture present, do not touch wet area until all power has been turned off. If shut-off box is not accessible, call the electric
company to shut off service to the location, or call your local fire department for instructions. Failure to follow this warning can result
in fatal electrical shock.
The flexiblejacketed cord assembly mounted to the pump must not be modified in any way, except for shortening the cord to fit into a
control panel. Any splice between the pump and the control panel must be made within ajunction box and mounted outside of the
basin and comply with the National Electrical Code. Do not use the power cord for lifting the pump.
The pump motor is equipped with an automatic resetting thermal protector and may restart unexpectedly. Protector tripping is an
indication of motor overloading as a result of operating the pump at low heads (low discharge restriction), excessively high or low
voltage, inadequate wiring, incorrect motor connections, or a defective motor or pump.
For a submersible well pump:
Reduced risk of electric shock during operation of this pump requires the provision of acceptable grounding:
When the means of connection to the supply-connection box is other than grounded metal conduit, ground the pump back to the
service by connecting a copper conductor, at least the size of the circuit conductors supplying the pump, to the grounding screw
provided within the wiring compartment.
This pump is provided with a means for grounding. To reduce the risk of electric shock from contact with adjacent metal parts,
bond supply box to the pump-motor-grounding means and to all metal parts accessible at the well head, including metal
discharge pipes, metal well casing, and similar parts, by means of:
An equipment-grounding conductor at least the size of the well-cable conductors, or the equivalent, that runs down the well with the
well cable and
A clamp, a weld, or both when required, secured to the equipment-grounding lead, the equipment-grounding terminal, or the
grounding conductor on the pump housing.
The equipment-grounding lead, when one is provided, is the conductor that has an outer surface of insulation that is green with or
without one or more yellow stripes.
For a cord and plug-connected pump:
Risk of electric shock - This pump is supplied with a grounding conductor and grounding-type attachment plug. To reduce the risk of
electric shock, be certain that it is connected only to a proper grounded, grounding type receptacle.
When use as a fountain pump, to reduce the risk of electric shock, use only on portable self-contained fountains no larger than 5
feet in any dimension. Read all instructions and Safety Guidelines thoroughly. Failure to follow the guidelines and instructions could
result in serious bodily injury and/or property damage.
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING
TO INSTALL,
OPERATE, OR SERVICE YOUR PRODUCT.

During normal operation, this pump is immersed in water. Also, during rainstorms, water may be present in the surrounding area of the
pump. Caution must be used to prevent bodily injury when working near the pump. Electrical power should be disconnected prior to
touching, servicing or repairing the pump.
Do not run the pump in a dry basin. If the pump is run in a dry basin, the surface temperature of the pump will rise to a high level. This
high temperature could cause skin burns if the pump is touched and will cause serious damage to your pump. Do not install in locations
classified as hazardous in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. Do not remove cord and strain relief. Do
no connect conduit to pump.
Caution
For best performance of check valves, when handling solids install in a horizontal position or at an angle of no more than 45°. Do
not install check valve in a vertical position as solids may settle in valve and prevent opening on start-up. A gate valve should follow
the check valve to allow periodic cleaning of the check valve or removal of the pump. The remainder of the discharge line should be
as short as possible with a minimum of turns to minimize friction head loss. Sewage and effluent applications will require a separate
sump vent. A connection is provided on top of the sump or cover which must be piped to the existing building vent or extended
outside with its own standpipe.
When working on pump or switch, always unplug pump power cord in addition to removing or shutting off circuit breaker before
working on pump.
DO NOT USE TO PUMP FLAMMABLE OR EXPLOSIVE FLUIDS SUCH AS
GASOLINE,
FUEL OIL, KEROSENE, ETC.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY,
DEATH AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

Prior to Operation
Check the following points upon receipting of your pump:
Is the pump exactly what you ordered? Check nameplate. It is especially important that you check whether the pump is to be used
with 50 or 60 Hz.
Has any damage occurred during shipment? Are any bolts or nuts loose?
Have all necessary accessories been supplied?
We recommend that you keep a spare pump on hand in case of emergencies. Keep this instruction manual in a place for future
reference.
Checkthenameplateforyourpump’shead(HEAD),volume(CAPACITY),speed(SPEED),motorvoltage and current.
Installation
1. Check the following before beginning installation.
Insulation resistance measurement:
With the motor and cable (excluding the power supply cable) immersed in water, use a Megger to measure the insulation resistance
between ground and each phase of the motor, and again between each phase of the motor. The Megger should indicate an insulation
resistance of not less than 20mega ohms. While making the measurement, keep the power supply cable off the ground.
We recommend that an auxiliary pump be kept on hand in case of emergency.
2. Installation
For automatic operation, pump must be plugged or wired into a remote float switch or liquid level controller. Installation
instructions are included with all our switches and controllers and should be referred to for installation.
Installation and servicing shall be conducted by qualified person Ipeople. Pump will run continuously if plugged directly into an
electrical outlet. Care should be taken to prevent pump running in a dry sump.
Pump must be installed with local plumbing codes. Pump must be placed on a hard level surface. Never place pump directly
on clay, earth or gravel surfaces.
Pump can be installed with ABS, PVC, polyethylene or galvanized steel pipe.
Proper adapters are required to connect plastic pipe to pump.
Always install a union in the discharge line, just above the sump pit, to allow for easy removal of the pump for cleaning or repair.
A check valve must be used in the discharge line to prevent backflow of liquid into the basin.
The check valve should be a free-flow valve that will easily pass solids.
Under no circumstances should cable be pulled while the pump is being transported or installed. Attach a chain or rope to the
grip and install the pump.
This pump must not be installed on its side or operated a dry condition. Ensure that it is installed upright on a secure base.
Install the pump at a location in the tank where there is the least turbulence.
If there is a flow of liquid inside the tank, support the piping where appropriate. Install piping so that air will not be entrapped. If
piping must be installed in such a way that air pockets are unavoidable, install an air release valve wherever such air pockets are
most likely to develop.
Do not permit end of discharge piping to be submerged, as backflow will result when the pump is shut down.
Non-automatic pumps have an automatic operating system pump operating water level near the minimum operating level as
the automatic cut-off switch incorporated inside the motor will be activated.
To avoid dry operation, install an automatic operating system, as required and maintain a safe operating water
level (C.W.L.: Continuous Water Level).
For automatic pumps (models A), install the floats as required. The pump may not start if a floats switch touches the wall of the
water tank or the piping. Install the floats so that this will not happen.

8
Electrical Wiring
Check local electrical and building codes before installation. The installation must be in accordance with their regulations as
well as the most recent National Electrical Code (NEC).
Pump should be connected or wired to its own circuit with no other outlets or equipment in the circuit line. Fuses and circuit
breaker should be of ample capacity in the electrical circuit.
Wiring
A) Wire as indicated for the appropriate start system as shown in Fig-3 for single phase version and Fig-4 for three phases.
B) Loose connections will stop the pump. Make sure all electrical connections secure.
Cable
WARNING: Never let the end of the cable contact water.
C) If the cable is extended, do not immerse the splice inwater.
D) Fasten the cable to thehandle
E) Install the cable so that it will not overheat. Overheating can be caused by coiling the cable and exposing it to direct sun light.
Grounding
As shown in Fig-3 & Fig-4 ground the green wire. Under no circumstances should the green wire be connected to the power supply
directly.

Operation
1. Beforestartingthepump
1. After completing installation, measure the insulation resistance again as described in Installation.
2. Check water level.
If the pump is operated continuously for an extended period in a dry condition or at the lowest water level, the motor protector will be
shut off the power. Constant operating in above condition will shorten pump lifetime. Do not start the pump again in such a situation
before the motor has completely cooled.
2. Test operation
1. Turn the operating switch on and off a couple of times to check switch function.
2. For the SSDS-A pumps
Floating switch must be raised for the pump to start.
3. Next, check direction of rotation. If discharge volume is low or unusual sounds are heard when the pump is operating, rotation
direction is reversed. When this happens, reverse two of the wires.
Maintenance
Check pressure, output, voltage, current and other specifications. Unusual readings may indicate. Refer to Troubleshooting and
correct as soon as possible.
1. Daily inspections
Check current and ammeter fluctuation daily. If ammeter fluctuation is great, even though within the limits of pump rating, foreign
matter may be clogged the pump. If the volume of liquid discharged falls suddenly, foreign matter may be blocked the suction inlet.
2. Regular inspections
Monthly inspections
Measure the insulation resistance. The value should be more than 1M ohm. If resistance starts to fall rapidly even with an initial
indication of over 1M ohm, this may be an indication of trouble and repair work is required.
Annual inspections
To prolong the service life of the mechanical seal by replacing the oil in the mechanical seal chamber once a year. Water mixed the oil
or cloudy textures are indications of a defective mechanical seal requiring replacement. When replacing the oil, lay the pump on its
side with filler plug on top. Fill suitable amount turbine oil No.32 (ISO VG-32).
Inspections at 3-5year intervals
Conduct an overhaul of the pump. These intervals will help to avoid possible failure in future.
