Installation of Floats

A standard single phase simplex panel is
designed to operate with three fl oats. These
fl oats operate pump stop, pump start, and high
level alarm functions.

Note: Options ordered may affect the number
of fl oats and their functions. Please reference
the schematic provided with the control
panel for proper installation.

CAUTION: If control switch cables are not wired
and mounted in the correct order, the pump
system will not function properly.

WARNING: Turn off all power before installing
fl oats in pump chamber. Failure to do so could
result in serious or fatal electrical shock.

1. Use fl oat label kit to label fl oats for specifi c

operation (stop, start, alarm, etc.). See sche-
matic for fl oat options.

2. Determine your normal operating level, as il-

lustrated in Figure 1.

3. Place the cord into the clamp as shown in

Figure 2 or 3.

4. Locate the clamp at the desired position from

step 2, and secure the clamp to the discharge
pipe as shown in Figure 2 or 3.

5. Make sure the movement of floats is not

restricted.

6. Wire switch per wiring diagram.

7. Check installation. Allow system to cycle to

insure proper operation.

NOTE: Do not install cord under hose clamp.
Do not install switch in direct line of incoming liquid.
