SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
TO AVOID SERIOUS OR FATAL PERSONAL INJURY OR MAJOR PROPERTY DAMAGE, READ
AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS IN
MANUAL AND ON PUMP.
THIS MANUAL IS INTENDED TO ASSIST IN THE
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION OF THIS UNIT
AND MUST BE KEPT WITH THE PUMP.
THOROUGHLY REVIEW ALL INSTRUCTIONS
AND WARNINGS PRIOR TO PERFORMING ANY
WORK ON THIS PUMP.
MAINTAIN ALL SAFETY DECALS.
This is a SAFETY ALERT SYMBOL.
When you see this symbol on the pump
or in the manual, look for one of the
following signal words and be alert
to the potential for personal injury or
property damage.
Warns of hazards that WILL cause
serious personal injury, death or major
property damage.
Warns of hazards that CAN cause
serious personal injury, death or major
property damage.
Warns of hazards that CAN cause personal injury or property damage.
NOTICE: INDICATES SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS
WHICH ARE VERY IMPORTANT AND
MUST BE FOLLOWED.
PUMPING HAZARDOUS LIQUIDS
OR FLAMMABLE GASES CAN
CAUSE FIRE, BURNS OR DEATH.
DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATIONS
Assembled pump/motor units purchased from the factory
are UL® and CSA listed. ALL Franklin Electric motors are
UL® recognized and CSA listed.
INSPECT UNIT FOR DAMAGE AND REPORT ALL
DAMAGE TO THE CARRIER IMMEDIATELY.
IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS
All electrical work must be performed by a qualified
technician. Always follow the National Electrical Code
(NEC), or the Canadian Electrical Code, as well as all
local, state and provincial codes. Code questions should
be directed to your local electrical inspector. Failure to
follow electrical codes and OSHA safety standards may
result in personal injury or equipment damage. Failure to
follow manufacturer’s installation instructions may result
in electrical shock, fire hazard, personal injury or death,
damaged equipment, provide unsatisfactory performance,
and may void manufacturer’s warranty.

WARNING
swimming pools, open bodies of water,
hazardous liquids, or where flammable
gases exist. These fluids and gases may
be present in contaminant areas. Tank or
wetwell must be vented per local codes.
Only pumps specifically Listed for Class
1, Division 1 are allowable in hazardous
liquids and where flammable gases may
exist. See specific pump catalog bulletins
or pump nameplate for all agency listings.
Disconnect and lockout electrical power
before installing or servicing any electrical
equipment. Many pumps are equipped
with automatic thermal overload protection which may allow an overheated
pump to restart unexpectedly.
PIPING
• System piping MUST conform to all local and national
plumbing codes and practices.
WIRING AND GROUNDING
Important notice: Read Safety Instructions before proceeding with any wiring.
Use only stranded copper wire
to pump/motor and ground.
The ground wire must be at
least as large as the power supply wires. Wires should be color
coded for ease of maintenance
and troubleshooting.
• This pump is provided with a means for grounding. To
reduce the risk of electrical shock from contact with
adjacent metal parts, bond supply box to the pumpmotor-grounding means and to all metal parts accessible at the tank, including metal discharge pipes, and
the like, by means of:
1. An equipment grounding conductor at least the size
of the power cable conductors to the pump.
2. A clamp, a weld or both if necessary, secured to the
equipment grounding terminal, or the grounding
conductor on the pump housing. The equipment
grounding lead, if one is provided, is the conductor
that has an outer surface of insulation that is green
with or without one or more yellow stripes.-UL 778
MOTOR CABLE INSTALLATIONS
• Prepare the motor cable by stripping off ½" (13 mm) at
the end of each conductor’s insulation.
NOTICE: FOLLOW THE SPLICE KIT
MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS.
• Where cables are spliced or connected to the motor
leads, splices MUST be water tight. Commercially
available potting or heat shrinking kits may be used, if
allowed by local or federal regulations.
• To ensure proper sealing, immerse splice in a metal
container filled with water for ten minutes, then take a
resistance reading between the metal container and the
cable conductor. Resistance should read 2 megohms or
higher. Redo splice as required.
• Two wire motors do not require a control box.
Install wire and ground according to the National
Electrical Code, as well as all local, state and provincial codes.
Install an all leg disconnect switch where required
by code.
Disconnect and lockout electrical power before
performing any service or installation.
The electrical supply voltage and phase must
match all equipment requirements.
Incorrect voltage or phase can cause fire, motor
and control damage, and voids the warranty.
All splices must be waterproof. If using splice kits
follow manufacturer’s instructions.
Seal all controls from gases present which
may damage electrical components.
FAILURE TO PERMANENTLY
GROUND THE PUMP, MOTOR AND
CONTROLS BEFORE CONNECTING
TO ELECTRICAL POWER CAN
CAUSE SHOCK, BURNS OR DEATH.
Reduced risk of electrical shock during
operation of this pump requires the provisions of acceptable grounding.

PUMP INSTALLATION
WARNING
Hazardous voltage
can shock, burn or
cause death.
NOTICE: PROTECT ALL PIPING, FITTINGS AND
SYSTEM COMPONENTS FROM FREEZING.
DO NOT LIFT, CARRY OR HANG
PUMP BY THE ELECTRICAL CABLE.
DAMAGE TO THE ELECTRICAL
CABLE CAN CAUSE SHOCK, BURNS
OR DEATH.
IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ANY
INSTALLATION AND SERVICING
BE BY A CERTIFIED INSTALLER.
NOTICE: THE MODEL IS ASSEMBLED WITH LEFT
HAND THREADS. HOLD THE PUMP
WITH A WRENCH ON THE DISCHARGE
HEAD WHILE INSTALLING THE DISCHARGE PIPE OR CONNECTOR.
• Ensure that the pump and motor are free to rotate by
turning the shaft by hand.
• Connect drop pipe or discharge pipe to pump and
lower pump into tank.
• The pump must be protected from solids and debris.
The effluent must pass through an approved filter before reaching the pump.
• Using waterproof plastic electrical tape, fasten the
electrical cable to the drop pipe at approximately three
foot intervals.
• The pump MUST be submerged at all times for proper
operation. Do not run dry. Ensure that the float
switches are set so that the pump cuts out before the
pump runs dry or breaks suction. Adjust the floats as
necessary for proper operation.
• If pump is to be operated with an open discharge, a
discharge valve MUST be installed. Before startup,
open this valve approximately 1⁄3 of the way, then start
the pump. SLOWLY open the valve until the desired
flow rate is achieved. Final setting MUST be within the
pumps recommended operating range.
• The motor bearings are lubricated internally. No other
motor or pump maintenance is required or possible.
