Important Safety Instructions and Warnings
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. This manual contains important SAFETY WARNINGS and
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS for the PHCC Pro Series pumps. You will need to refer to it before attempting any installation or maintenance. ALWAYS keep these instructions with the unit so that they will be easily accessible. Failure to read and follow these warnings and instructions could result in property damage, serious injury, or death.
WARNING
ALWAYS disconnect the pump from the power source before servicing or making adjustments.
NEVER handle the pump or motor with wet hands or when standing on a wet or damp surface while the pump is plugged into the power source.
MAKE SURE THERE IS A PROPERLY GROUNDED RECEPTACLE AVAILABLE. This pump is wired with a 3-prong grounded plug. To reduce the risk of electric shock, be certain that it is only connected to a properly grounded, 3-prong receptacle. If you have a 2-prong receptacle, have a licensed electrician replace it with a 3-prong receptacle according to local codes and ordinances.
NEVER bypass grounding wires or remove the ground prong from the plug.
DO NOT use an extension cord. The electrical outlet should be within the length of the pump’s power cord, and at least 4 feet above the floor level to minimize potential hazards from flood conditions.
DO protect the electrical cord from sharp objects, hot surfaces, oil, and chemicals. Avoid kinking the cord.
MAKE SURE the supply circuit has a fuse or circuit breaker rated to handle the power requirements noted on the nameplate of the pump.
NEVER install the pump in locations classified as hazardous in accordance with the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.
Risk of electric shock. To reduce this risk, observe the following precautions.
DO NOT remove the power supply cord and strain relief or connect the pump directly to the conduit.
ALWAYS install the pump in accordance with the National Electric Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances. All wiring should be performed by a licensed electrician.
CAUTION
DO NOT use the power cord or strain relief to carry the pump. Use the pump handle.
DO NOT expose the control unit to rain or snow.
DO NOT operate the pump or control unit if it has been damaged in any way.
DO drill an air bleed hole in the discharge pipe when a check valve is used. Drill
the hole at an upward angle from the bottom of the pit to avoid splashing water outside the sump pit. If a hole is not drilled above the pump, an air lock may prevent the pump from operating. The best location for the hole is about 3” above the discharge outlet on the pump. The hole must Drill a 3/16” (4.76mm) hole in the discharge pipe for the E7 Series pumps.
DO NOT disassemble the pump or control unit. When service is required, contact Glentronics technical support at 800-991-0466, option 3. Return the product to the manufacturer for any repairs at the following address:
NOTICES
• Sewage pumps will not provide protection during a power outage.
• After the initial installation, be sure to check the operation by filling the pit with water and observing the pump operation through one full cycle.
• For continuous duty operation, the pump must be submerged at least ¾ of the depth of the pump at all times.
• In instances where the discharge line is exposed to freezing temperatures, the pipe must be sloped downward so any remaining water will drain out. Failure to do so will prevent water from exiting the pit and damage the pump if the line freezes.
To reduce the risk of hazards that can cause injury or property damage, observe the following precautions.

Prior to Installation
1. Visually inspect your pump. Products may be damaged during shipping. If the product has been damaged, contact your place of purchase or Glentronics, Inc. before installation.
2. Thoroughly read the instructions provided to learn specific details regarding installation and use. This manual should be retained for future reference.
Installing the Pump
WARNING
1. Use a pit that conforms to all local codes and is large enough to accommodate the pump and float switch. Larger pits are preferred, since they will extend the discharge cycle and reduce the number of times the pump turns on.
2. Clean the pit of all debris.
3. The pump should not be set directly onto a clay, earthen, or sand base.
4. The pump should be level. You may install bricks or blocks under the pump to provide a solid base.
5. Install discharge plumbing according to local, regional and state codes. Rigid PVC pipe is recommended.
6. The size of the discharge outlets on the pumps are 2”. Match the size of the discharge pipe to the size of the outlet on the pump to maintain the optimum pumping capacity.
7. An in-line check valve is recommended to prevent back-flow. Note: When using a check
valve, an air bleed hole of 3/16” (4.76mm) for the E7 Series needs to be drilled in the discharge pipe. The best location is about 3” above the top of the discharge outlet. The hole must drilled below the check valve. A small stream of water will escape through this air bleed hole when the pump is running, so the hole should be drilled on an angle toward the bottom of the pit.
8. Install a gate valve or ball valve as required by any codes.
9. Secure the power cord to the discharge pipe with wire ties or clamps to prevent interference with the float assembly.
10. A cover is required in all sewage pump installations with gas-tight seals to contain gases
and odors. A vent pipe should be added in any sewage installation.
11. In instances where the discharge line is exposed to freezing temperatures, the pipe must
be positioned in a downward slope so any remaining water will drain away. Failure to do this will prevent water from exiting the pit and damage the pump if the line freezes.
Installing the Ultimate Sensor
The Ultimate Sensor is easy to install by using the enclosed stainless steel hose clamp.
1. Hold the ball shaped sensor to the discharge
pipe so that the sensor rod is below the ball. The sensor wire includes a connector that can be separated from the controller when the wire needs to be threaded through small openings.
2. Secure the sensor rod to the pipe with the
enclosed hose clamp, but do not completely tighten the clamp at this time. Be sure to place the drive mechanism of the clamp on the adjacent side of the sensor. This will allow the extra material of the clamp to be as close as possible to the sensor once it is completely tightened.
3. Position the sensor to a level where the bottom of the sensor rod is no lower than
3” above the bottom of the pump. To avoid debris pouring onto the sensor, it should be positioned on the side opposite the drain tile.
Note: It is important to mount the sensor below the drain tile that empties into the pit. Mounting it above the drain tile would allow water to fill the drain tile before the pump is activated to pump out the water.
4. Once the sensor is in the desired position, tighten the clamp. Do not over tighten.
Installing the Vertical Float
The vertical float switch contains a single large float. Sewage will lift the float to the top of the lift rod which will raise the lift rod and activate the pump. As the pump evacuates the sewage from the pit the float will drop, lowering the lift rod and turning off the pump.
1. Fully open the metal hose clamp and insert it through the slots in the mounting bracket of the float switch.
This installation must be in accordance with the National Electric Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances.
be
2. Place the hose clamp over the discharge pipe so that the gripping tabs are against the pipe and select the desired activation level of the pump.
3. The pumping range can be adjusted by moving the float stop up or down the lift rod.
4. To avoid debris from pouring onto the float, it should be positioned on the side of the discharge pipe opposite the drain tile.
5. Once the float switch is in the desired position, securely tighten the hose clamp. Note:
The cable from the switch must remain outside the hose clamp.
Connecting the Pump and Controller
WARNING
Ultimate Solid State Controller
1. Mount the controller to the foundation, drywall or a stud through the 2 holes on the cabinet using the proper mounting hardware for the application. The controller should be mounted at least 4from the floor and within 4’ of the outlet. Do not use
an extension cord.
2. Plug the sensor into the bottom of the controller. Once the controller is plugged into the outlet it will recognize the sensor in about 10 seconds.
3. Open the plastic door on the top of the unit and using a flat head screwdriver adjust the dial to select the number of seconds that the pump will run after the water falls below the sensor. The dial can be adjusted from 5-45 seconds. The manufacturer default is about 10 seconds. Install a 9V alkaline battery and replace the plastic door.
4. Plug the control box into a properly grounded, 3-prong receptacle. Then, plug the pump into the receptacle on the control box.
Do not use an extension cord.
5. Make sure the Power Failure Alarm slide switch is in the ON position. Note: Do not attempt to
use sensors or float switches other than the Ultimate Sensor with this controller.
Vertical Float Switch
1. Insert the vertical switch’s piggy-back plug into a properly grounded 3-prong receptacle.
2. Insert the pump plug into the piggy-back plug.
Connecting to a Security System (USC3)
The Ultimate Solid State Controller (Model USC3) includes a terminal on the right side of the control box to connect to a security system or other alarm devices. There are (3) three positions for wire connections on this terminal: N.O. – normally open, N.C. – normally closed, and Common.
1. Check your security system to determine whether an open (no contact) or closed (making contact) connection is needed to activate the alarm.
2. The security system will provide (2) two connection terminals to extend wires to the control terminal. Strip two wires 1/4” each. Connect either wire to the common terminal. To secure the wire into the terminal, insert the exposed wire into the hole on the side of the terminal next to the screw marked common. Turn the screw a few turns to lock-in the wire.
3. If the security system requires a closing of a contact to activate the alarm, secure the other wire into the terminal hole labeled N.O. (normally open). If the security system requires an opening of a contact, secure the wire into the terminal hole labeled N.C. (normally closed). Note: Only the “AC power out” and ‘Float raised for 10 minutes” alarms
will activate the remote terminal signal.
Completing the Installation (all models)
1. After the initial installation, be sure to check the pump operation by filling the pit with water and observing the pump through one full cycle. When using the vertical float the pump should shut off after the float drops. Note: When the pump activates, it should
have a “normal pumping” sound. Any abnormal sound, vibration, or lack of output is the signal of a problem. Stop the pump and refer to the troubleshooting guide.
2. Replace the pit cover making sure not to pinch or crimp the pump wire with the cover. The pit cover either has a ‘hole punch’ that will allow the cord to be passed through or one can be drilled.
Make sure the outlet is single phase, 115V and 60HZ for all the pump installations.
