Safety Precautions

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK

Accidental contact with electrically live parts, items, fluid, or water can cause serious injury or death.

Always disconnect pump(s) from power source(s) before handling or making any adjustments to either the pump(s), the pump system, or the control panel.

All installation and maintenance of pumps, controls, protection devices, and general wiring shall be done by qualified personnel.

All electrical and safety practices shall be in accordance with the National Electrical Code®, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, or applicable local codes and ordinances.

Do not remove cord and strain relief, and do not connect conduit to pump.

Pump shall be properly grounded using its supplied grounding conductor. Do not bypass grounding wires or remove ground prong from attachment plugs. Failure to properly ground the pump system can cause all metal portions of the pump and its surroundings to become energized.

Do not handle or unplug the pump with wet hands, when standing on damp surface, or in water unless wearing Personal Protective Equipment.

Always wear dielectric rubber boots and other applicable Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) when water is on the floor and an energized pump system must be serviced, as submerged electrical connections can energize the water. Do not enter the water if the water level is higher than the PPE protection or if the PPE is not watertight.

Do not lift or carry a pump or a float assembly by its power cord. This will damage the power cord, and could expose the electrically live wires inside the power cord.

The electrical power supply shall be located within the length limitations of the pump power cord, and for below grade installations it shall be at least 4 ft (1.22 m) above floor level.

Do not use this product in applications where human contact with the pumped fluid is common (such as swimming pools, fountains, marine areas, etc.).

Protect the power and control cords from the environment. Unprotected power and control (switch) cords can allow water to wick through ends into pump or switch housings, causing surroundings to become energized.

Single-phase 208/230V pumps shall only be operated without the float switch by using the circuit breaker or panel disconnect.

Some products may have internal capacitors that could cause shock. Avoid contact with plug ends after removing from energy source.

RISK OF FIRE

Do not use an extension cord to power the product. Extension cords can overload both the product and extension cord supply wires. Overloaded wires will get very hot and can catch on fire.

This product requires a separate, properly fused and grounded branch circuit, sized for the voltage and amperage requirements of the pump, as noted on the nameplate. Overloaded branch circuit wires will get very hot and can catch on fire. When used, electrical outlets shall be simplex of the appropriate rating.

Do not use this product with or near flammable or explosive fluids such as gasoline, fuel oil, kerosene, etc. If rotating elements inside pump strike any foreign object, sparks may occur. Sparks could ignite flammable liquids.

Sewage and effluent systems produce and may contain flammable and explosive gases. Prevent introduction of foreign objects into basin as sparks could ignite these gases. Exercise caution using tools and do not use electronic devices or have live, exposed electrical circuits in or around basins, open covers and vents.

These pumps are not to be installed in locations classified as hazardous in accordance with the National Electric Code®, ANSI/NFPA 70.

RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH

Energizing the control panel or breaker for the first time is potentially dangerous. Licensed electrical personnel should be present when the panel or breaker is energized for the first time. If faults caused by damage or poor installation practices have not been detected, serious damage, injury or death can result when power is applied.

Do not modify the pump/pump system in any way. Modifications may affect seals, change the electrical loading of the pump, or damage the pump and its components.

All pump/pump system installations shall be in compliance with all applicable Federal, State, and Local codes and ordinances.

Do not allow children to play with the pump system.

Do not allow any person who is unqualified to have contact with this pump system. Any person who is unaware of the dangers of this pump system, or has not read this manual, can easily be injured by the pump system.

In 208/230V installations, one side of the line going to the pump is always “hot”, whether the float switch is on or off. To avoid hazards, install a double pole disconnect near the pump installation.

Vent basin in accordance with local code. Proper venting of sewer and effluent gases alleviates poisonous gas buildup and reduces the risk of explosion and fire from these flammable gases.

Wear adequate Personal Protective Equipment when working on pumps or piping that have been exposed to wastewater. Sump and sewage pumps often handle materials that can transmit illness or disease upon contact with skin and other tissues.

Do not enter a pump basin after it has been used. Sewage and effluent can emit several gases that are poisonous.

Do not remove any tags or labels from the pump or its cord.

Keep clear of suction and discharge openings. To prevent injury, never insert fingers into pump while it is connected to a power source.

Do not use this product with flammable, explosive, or corrosive fluids. Do not use in a flammable and/or explosive atmosphere as serious injury or death could result.

This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. www.p65warnings.ca.gov.

A grinder pump contains metal parts that rotate at high speeds. Be careful around pump base while power is connected. Make sure that the pump is either in the tank or clear from people and wires when in operation.

Verify a Redundant Check Valve Assembly (curb stop and check valve) is installed between the pump discharge and the street main, as close to the public right-of-way as possible, on all installations to protect from system pressures.

Do not dispose of materials such as paint thinner or other chemicals down drains. Doing so could chemically attack and damage pump system components and cause product malfunction or failure.

Do not use these pumps with fluid over 140°F (60°C). Operating the pump in fluid above this temperature can overheat the pump, resulting in pump failure.

Do not use pump system with mud, sand, cement, hydrocarbons, grease, or chemicals. Pump and system components can be damaged from these items causing product malfunction or failure. Additionally, flooding can occur if these items jam the impeller or piping.

Do not run dry.

The Uniform Plumbing Code® states that sewage systems shall have an audio and visual alarm that signals a malfunction of the system, to reduce the potential for property damage.

Do not exert heavy pressure or run heavy equipment on the backfill material as this could cause the tank to collapse.

Introduction

Pumps, alarm, and control panel are supplied with their own separate manuals. Ensure receipt of these manuals, and that they are read and understood prior to installing and using this system. Familiarity with the pumps, alarm, and control panel is critical.

This manual provides a brief overview of the system, and deals mainly with inspection and installation of the basin. It does not cover the specifics of the pump, alarm, and control panel operation. For questions, call Liberty Pumps customer service at 800-543-2550.

Identification

Information about the system can be found on a tag located on the basin cover. This identifies the system model number as well as the horsepower, voltage, and amp draw for the pump. Pump tag is located on the pump. Duplicate pump tags are packaged with the system. These should be mounted on the basin cover or at the control panel for accessibility and immediate pump information.

Inspection
