Hazardous voltage can shock, burn or cause death.

WARNIN G ! Do not pump hazardous materials (flammable, caustic, etc.) unless the pump is specifically designed and designated to handle them.

CAUTION ! Do not block or restrict discharge hose, as discharge hose may whip under pressure.

WARNING ! Do not wear loose clothing that may become entangled in moving parts.

WARNING ! Keep clear of suction and discharge openings. DO NOT insert fingers in pump with power connected.

Always wear eye protection when working on pumps.

Make sure lifting handles are securely fastened each time before lifting. DO NOT operate pump without safety devices in place. Always replace safety devices that have been removed during service or repair. Secure the pump in its operating position so it can not tip over, fall or slide.

DO NOT exceed manufacturers recommendation for maximum performance, as this could cause the motor to overheat.

Rotating machinery

Only qualified personnel should install, operate and repair pump. Any wiring of pumps should be performed by a qualified electrician.

and self priming pump the heat build may cause the generation of steam with resulting dangerous pressures. It is recommended that a high case temperature switch or pressure relief valve be installed on the pump body.

Amputation or severe laceration can result.

WARNING ! To reduce risk of electrical shock, pumps and control panels must be properly grounded in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC) or the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC) and all applicable state, province, local codes and ordinances. Improper grounding voids warranty

WARNING ! To reduce risk of electrical shock, always disconnect the pump from the power source before handling or servicing. Lock out power and tag.

WARNING ! Operation aga inst a closed discharge valve will cause premature bearing and seal failure on any pump, and on end suction

CAUTION ! Never operate a pump with a plug-in type power cord without a ground fault circuit interrupter.

CAUTION ! Pumps build up heat and pressure during operation-allow time for pumps to cool before handling or servicing.

Eye protection required

DO NOT remove cord and strain relief. DO NOT connect conduit to pump.

WARNING ! Cable should be protected at all times to avoid punctures, cut, bruises and abrasions. Inspect frequently. Never handle connected power cords with wet hands.

WARNING ! To reduce risk of electrical shock, all wiring and junction connections should be made per the NEC or CEC and applicable state or province and local codes. Requirements may vary depending on usage and location.

WARNING ! Submersible Pumps are not approved for use in swimming pools, recreational water installations decorative fountains or any installation where human contact with the pumped fluid is common.

WA RNIN G ! Products returned must be cleaned, sanitized, or decontaminated as necessary prior to shipment, to insure that employees will not be exposed to health hazards in handling said material. All Applicable Laws And Regulations Shall Apply.

Bronze/brass and bronze/brass fitted pumps may contain lead levels higher than considered safe for potable water systems. Various government agencies have determined that leaded copper alloys should not be used in potable water applications. For non-leaded copper alloy materials of construction, please contact factory.

SECTION C: INSTALLATION

B-1) To the Purchaser:

Congratulations! You are the owner of one of the finest pumps on the market today. Barnes engineered and manufactured of high quality components. Over one hundred years of pump building experience along with a continuing quality assurance program combine to produce a pump which will stand up to the toughest applications.

This Barnes Pumps, Inc. manual will provide helpful information concerning installation, maintenance, and proper service guidelines. Check local codes and requirements before installation. Servicing should be performed by knowledgeable pump service contractors or authorized service stations.

The pump is packaged ready for installation and no connections or adjustments are necessary except for attaching discharge piping and plugging in service cord.

B-2) Receiving

Upon receiving the pump, it should be inspected for damage or shortages. If damage has occurred, file a claim immediately with the company that delivered the pump. If the manual is removed from the crating, do not lose or misplace.

B-3) Storage: Short Term- Barnes Pumps are manufactured for efficient

performance following long inoperative periods in storage. For best results, pumps can be retained in storage, as factory assembled, in a dry atmosphere with constant temperatures for up to six (6) months.

Pumps are products

C-1) Location:

These pumping units are self-contained and are recommended for use in a sump or basin. This pump is designed to pump rain water or light effluent, nonexplosive and noncorrosive liquids and shall NOT be installed in locations classified as hazardous in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC), ANSI/NFPA 70 or the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC). The sump or basin shall be vented in accordance with local plumbing codes. Provide proper sump diameter of approx. 18" (457mm) minimum and depth of approx. 20" (508mm) minimum to allow the pump and switch to operate without restriction. The float switch should not come in contact with side or bottom of sump. Make sure sump is free of string, cloth, nails, gravel, etc. before installing pump. Never install the pump in a trench, ditch, or hole with a dirt bottom where the suction will become plugged.

C-1.1) Submergence:

The minimum sump liquid level should never be less than

2.5 inches (64mm) above the pump bottom.

C-2) Discharge:

Discharge piping should be as short as possible. The installation of a check valve in the discharge piping is recommended for each pump being used. The check valve is used to prevent backflow into the sump. Excessive backflow can cause flooding and/or damage to the pump.

C-3) Liquid Level Controls

Figure 2 shows a typical installation for any submersible pump using a level control mounted to the discharge piping with a piggy-back plug.

Long Term- Any length of time exceeding six (6) months, but not more than twenty four (24) months. The units should be stored in a temperature controlled area, a roofed over walled enclosure that provides protection from the elements (rain, snow, wind blown dust, etc..), and whose temperature can be maintained between +40 deg. F and +120 deg. F.

Pump should be stored in its original shipping container and on initial start up, rotate impeller by hand to assure seal and impeller rotate freely.

B-4) SERVICE CENTERS:

For the location of the nearest Barnes Pumps Service Center, check your catalog, your Barnes Pumps, Inc. representative or Barnes Pumps, Inc. Service Department in Piqua, Ohio, telephone (937) 77808947 or Crane Pumps & Systems Canada Inc., in Bramton, Ontario (905) 457-6223.

General Comments:

1) Never work in the sump with the power on.

2) Level controls are factory set for a pumping differential of 9 inches. If that is the cycle desired, simply circle the discharge pipe with the pipe mounting strap, feed the end through the worm drive, and tighten with a screwdriver. Be certain that the level control cannot hang up or foul in it’s swing. Also, make certain the pump impeller is still submerged when the level control is in the ’off’ mode.

3) If a higher pump differential is needed, grip the cord near the neck of the float, then using the other hand, exert a steady force on the lower edge of the cable clamp. The cable clamp should slide up to the new pivot point. Attach the level control to the discharge pipe in the manner described above.
