INTRODUCTION
PURPOSE
The GASBOY ASTRA Series 9820A Electronic Commercial Pumps Installation/Oper ation Manual
is provided to assist the installer in installing and operating the unit. This manual should be
supplied to the electrician prior to the installation of conduit and wiring to ensure the unit is
installed properly. Faulty installations are the major cause of unit malfunctions. The unit must be
installed and operated as described in this manual to ensure the reliability and proper operation of
the Series 9820A unit. In addition to installation information, this manual contains warnings,
safeguards and procedures on the use and care of the Series 9820A pumps. Be sure to leave this
manual with the pump owner after the installation is complete.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The GASBOY Series 9820A ASTRA (aboveground storage tank remote access) pump units are
UL-listed and are available in two models. Model 9822A is available in standard speed (up to 15
GPM/56 LPM) with an intermittent-duty motor. Model 9823A is available in high speed (up to 22
GPM/83LPM) with a continuous-duty motor. The deliver y rate varies depending upon installation
conditions and added accessories. Both models of the 9820A offer electronic registration of the
quantity dispensed.
NOTE: NFPA regulations do not allow tank-mounted pumps to be used for the resale of fuel.
The Series 9820A consists of two metal cabinet assemblies. One assembly is mounted on top of
the tank and contains the pumping unit, meter, electronic pulser, and all hydraulics. The hose and
nozzle are connected to this assembly. The second assembly is mounted at a height to permit
easy access by a user. It contains the electronic register, controls, display and nozzle boot.
The following lists detail the standard and optional features for the Series 9820A.
• Reset complete (switch detect) output which allows monitoring of the unit's operation when it
is connected to an automated fueling system
• Resettable electronic totalizer
• Discharge elbow
• Both models use a quiet and efficient gear pump which features an air eliminator, built into
the pump casting. The pump meter is a three piston, positive displacement meter which is
tested and calibrated for accuracy at any speed or pressure up to the maximum working
pressure of 50 psi.
• The standard pumping cabinet finish is white. The electronic r egister cabinet is black with a

All installations must conform with all building/fire codes, all Federal, State, and Local codes,
National Electrical Code, (NFPA 70), NFPA 30, and Automotive and Marine Service Station Code
(NFPA 30A) codes and regulations. Canadian users must also comply with the Canadian
Electrical Code.
Plan your installation carefully. A pump cannot be expected to work satisfactorily unless the
installation is correct. Dispensing troubles, which seem to be pump-related, are frequently traced
to faulty installation. Review the following list of installation DO's and DON'T's to avoid potential
problems:
1. DO read the WARNINGS page at the fr ont of this manual, preceding the Table of Contents.
It contains important information regarding the safe use of your dispensing equipment.
2. DO install an emergency power cutoff. In addition to circuit breaker requirements of NFPA 70
and NFPA 30A, a single control which simultaneously removes AC power from all site
dispensing equipment is recommended. This control must be readily accessible, clearly
labeled, and in accordance with all local codes.
In a fuel management system application, the EMERGENCY STOP and STOP keys on the
console and/or the optional EMERGENCY STOP button on the Island Card Reader do not
remove AC power from equipment and under certain conditions, will not stop product flow.
In order to provide the highest level of safety to you, your employees, and customers, we
recommend that all employees be trained as to the location and procedure for turning off
power to the entire system.
3. DO have the pump installed by a competent installer/electrician.
4. DO install breakaway coupling on discharge hose. If using a high hose retriver, install
breakaway approximately 12" downstream of hose clamp on nozzle side of clamp.
5. DO NOT experiment with a pump if you are not sure the installation is correct.
6. DO NOT overload sub- or main breaker panels.
7. DO NOT use power line wir ing of inadequate capacity. (Use gauge specified by the wiring
diagram or wire chart provided in Section 4).
8. DO NOT use a circuit breaker of improper size. (See Section 4).
9. DO NOT use the GASBOY fuel dispensing equipment to remove water ballast from the
storage tank.
10. DO NOT use gaskets on covers of explosion-proof type boxes. The sealing compound found
around wires at various locations within conduit is a requirement of the National Electrical
Code and should not be disturbed. Ensure that the mating surfaces between the junction box
and cover are free of dirt, debris, nicks and scratches. Tighten junction box covers before
replacing panels.
11. DO NOT use knock-out boxes or flexible conduit for installing this unit. All power wires
should be run in threaded, rigid, metal conduit. All threaded connections must be drawn up
tight. All but one opening in the power junction box are provided with plugs at the factory. At
completion of the installation, it is the installer's responsibility to ensure that any unused
openings are plugged.

VENT LINE
The vent line for standard units is vented to the atmosphere. Whenever possible, it is
recommended that the line be returned to the tank. A hole is pr ovided above the normal vent
opening to allow this line to exit the pumping unit and return to the tank.
VAPOR RECOVERY OPTION
This dispenser can be supplied with components necessary to provide vapor recovery. If the
dispenser is equipped for vapor recovery, a splitter is located in the pump housing. A 3/4"
discharge line will exit from the rear of the pump housing to return vapor/fluid to the tank. No
changes are required to the nozzle hook or boot assembly when using vapor re covery nozzles.
Please note that the vapor recovery nozzles approved for use ar e the "short spout" type. The
following nozzles and hose are approved for use with vapor recovery systems:
Nozzles: Emco Wheaton Model A4015
Husky Corp. Model 5010
OPW Model 211V
Hose: UL-Listed Hose Assembly
HOSE LENGTH ESTIMATOR
Use the chart on the next page to estimate the length of hose needed for your 9820A application.
The correct length will prevent the hose from touching the ground when the nozzle is placed into
the nozzle boot/hook arrangement of the register. This chart assumes that the 9820A register is
mounted on the standard pedestal and that the bottom of the pedestal is mounted flush with the
bottom of the tank. The illustration below provides a visual reference for the chart.
