1.2.1 Safety Alert Symbol
SAFETY INSTRUCTION
This safely alert symbol will be used in this manual to draw attention to safety related instructions.
When used, the safety alert symbol means
ATTENTION, BECOME ALERT! YOUR
SAFETY IS INVOLVED! FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION MAY RESULT
IN A SAFETY HAZARD.
1.2.2 Safety Instruction Decal
Your Technologic
should have a safety instruction dec al (part #
S11550) located on the front of the enclosure near
the disconnect switch. If the decal is missing or illegible contact your local B&G representative for a
replacement.
1.2.3 Hazardous Voltage
Only qualified electricians should perform electrical
service of any kind on the control panel or pumping
system. Visually inspect the control panel for loose or
stranded wires and for damaged components or wires
prior to performing electrical service. Never troubleshoot or perform service on a live control panel. Do
not turn the disconnect switch on while the enclosure
door is open. Live voltage is still connected to the
incoming side of the disconnect switch even when the
®
Constant Speed Pump Controller
disconnect switch is off. Turn off and lock out the
incoming power prior to troubleshooting or performing service on this control panel.
WARNING: High Voltage! Do not work
on live control panels. Disconnect the
incoming power prior to performing service on
this unit. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS
INSTRUCTION MAY RESULT IN DEATH OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
1.2.4 Pump/Motor Safety
All electrical installation or service on the motors
should be performed by a qualified electrician.
Ground fault protection should be sized properly.
Refer to local electrical codes for sizing and selection.
Refer to the I.O.M. for the motors for specific installation information. Even when the Pum ps are
stopped, they should be considered alive as long as its
controller is energized. Keep hands away from the
pumps until the power is disconnected from the
pump controller.
1.2.5 Motor Control Equipment Safety
Do not install and operate a pumping package in a
closed system unless the system is constructed with
properly sized safety and control devices. Such devices include the use of properly sized and located pressure relief valves, compression tanks, pressure controls, temperature controls and flow controls as
appropriate. If the system does not include these
devices, consult the responsible engineer or architect
before making pumps operational.
DANGER: The heating of water and
other fluids causes volumetric expansion.
The associated forces may cause failure of system
components and release of high temperature fluids. This will be prevented by installing properly
sized and located pressure relief valves and compression tanks. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE
INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN SERIOUS
PROPERTY DAMAGE AND SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
1.3 Storage
For long periods of storage, the pumping package
should be covered to prevent corrosion and contamination from dirt. It should be stored in a clean, dry
location between -20 and +60º C. The relative
humidity should not exceed 95%. The unit should be
checked periodically to ensure that no condensation
has formed. After storage, check that it is dry before
applying power.
1.4 Handling
Care should be taken to prevent damage due to drop-
ping or jolting when moving any panel or pumping
package. Transportation damage should be brought
to the carrier’s attention immediately upon receipt.
The unit should be unloaded and handled by qualified personnel. A pumping package that includes this
panel may be top heavy due to the position of the
motors. Lift the unit with slings placed under the unit
base rails. Be sure not to load the lifting mechanism
beyond its rated limits. Use the motor eyebolts to stabilize the unit while lifting to prevent overturning.
DANGER: Heavy load, may drop if
not lifted properly. Do not load cables,
chains or hoists beyond their rated limits.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH AND/OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
1.5 Foundation
A concrete base weighing at least 2.5 times the weight
of the pumping package is recommended. Check the
shipping ticket for the unit weight. Tie the concrete
pad in with the finished floor. Use foundation bolts
and larger pipe sleeves to give room for final bolt
location.
1.6 Leveling
Place the pumping package on its concrete founda-
tion, supporting it with steel wedges or shims totaling
1” in thickness. These wedges or shims should be put
on both sides of each anchor-bolt to provide a means
of leveling the base.
1.7 Location
Install the pumping package appropriately for ease of
inspection, maintenance and service. Observe local
electrical codes concerning control panel spacing.
1.8 Piping
Be sure to eliminate any pipe strain on the pumping
package. Support all pipes independently by use of
pipe hangers near the unit. Ordinary wire or band
hangers are not adequate to maintain alignment. It is
very important to provide a strong, rigid support for
the suction and discharge lines. A saddle hanger is
recommended. Do not attempt to force the suction
or discharge lines into position. Refer to the assembly
drawing for customer piping connections.
Inspect all unit piping connections. Joints may also
become loose during transit due to vibration and
shock. All joints should be checked for tightness.
Flanged joints should be checked for proper torque
of all flange bolts prior to filling the system with
fluid.
Eccentric increasers may be used in the suction lines
when increasing the pipe size, with the straight sides
of the increaser on top to eliminate air pockets.
For critical installations, equipment for absorbing
expansion and vibration should be installed in the
inlet and outlet connections of the unit.
Drain plugs are placed in a cloth bag and secured to
the unit prior to shipping from the factory. Reinstall
the drain plugs prior to filling the system with fluid.
On an open system with a suction lift, use a foot
valve of equal or greater area than the pump suction
piping. Prevent clogging by using a strainer at the
suction inlet next to the foot valve. The strainer
should have an area three times that of the suction
pipe. Provisions must be made to prime the pump
suction piping on start up. Do not start the pump
unless all suction piping is full of water.
A thermal relief valve is installed on the discharge
header to prevent potentially dangerous thermal
buildup in the package. This valve acts as a safety
device and it should never be removed or tampered
with. It is factory set to open and discharge when the
water temperature in the discharge header exceeds
125°F. The 3/8” NPT opening of this valve must be
piped to a floor drain.
Before starting, all pumps and motors should be
checked for proper lubrication.
1.9 Temperature and Ventilation
The operating temperature range for this unit is 0 to
50°C. The relative should be kept between 10% and
90% non-condensing. The unit should not be operated outside these extremes.
1.10 Incoming Power and Ground Wiring
A qualified electrician should bring incoming power
and ground wiring to the disconnect switch. If holes
are drilled in the control panel, be sure to not contaminate electrical components with metal filings. A
grounding terminal is provided next to the disconnect switch for an incoming ground wire connection.
Wire types and sizes must be selected according to
the National Electrical Code and all local codes and
restrictions. Refer to the input current and voltage as
listed on the nameplate on the enclosure door when
sizing the power wires. Only copper (Cu) wire rated
for 75°C (minimum) may be used for the power connections. The voltage tolerance is +10/-5% and
phase to phase voltage must not have an imbalance
greater than 5 VAC.
WARNING: Prevent electrical shocks.
Disconnect the incoming power supply to
the control panel before beginning installation.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY RESULT IN DEATH OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE.
WARNING: Conduit grounds are not
adequate. A separate ground wire must be
attached to the ground lug provided in the enclosure to avoid potential safety hazards. FAILURE
TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS
COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS PERSONAL
INJURY, DEATH AND/OR PROPERTY
DAMAGE.

BACnet Standardized Device Profile (Annex L): BACnet Application Specific Controller
The pressure reducing valves are factory set to the discharge
pressure on the unit nameplate. If adjustment is required,
check the following:
1. Does the desired system pressure correspond to
the pressure indicated on the unit nameplate?
2. Is the suction pressure equal to or higher than the
pressure indicated on the nameplate?
3. Is the demand (GPM) within the capacity indicated
on the nameplate?
4. Have the PRV’s been properly vented?
Any deviation from the above conditions will prevent
the unit from operating at the factory settings.

DAMAGE.
To adjust the PRV, place the pump in manual operation. See section 3.3.1. With the pump running,
Do not
slowly close the main gate valve downstream of the
discharge header, allowing a trickle of water to flow
through it. Read the system pressure on the display. It
should read 3 or 4 psi higher than the desired system
pressure. If not, remove the protective cap on the
pilot control valve and loosen the jam nut on the
adjusting stem of the PRV. Slowly turn the stem
clockwise to increase the delivery pressure and counter clockwise to decrease pressure. (Note that a pilot
valve furnished for a 20 to 300 psi range will change
the main valve setting approximately 28 psi for each
full turn of the adjusting screw.) Set the screw so the
system display reads 3 to 4 psi higher than the desired
system pressure.
Open the gate valve fully. If feasible, draw between
50 to 80% of the designed pump capacity to recheck
the valve setting. The display should now read the
desired system pressure. Tighten jam nut and replace
cap.
Repeat the above procedure for all pump and valve
combinations as required.
The CV Flow Control Valve (opening speed control)
may require field adjustment if pressure hunting
occurs. Normal setting of the valve is from 4 to 7
turns open. Never open more than 8 turns.
