CONTROL BOXES

PAGE I -- 1

INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION

Read this manual carefully to learn how to safely

install and operate your control box. Failure to do

so could result in personal injury or damage to the

control box or the pump.

This manual does not include maintenance in-

structions. Have a qualified electrician perform all

maintenance.

Be sure to follow all safety precau-

tions as outlined by the National Electric Code and

all local codes.

The control box is a rainproof enclosure with a pad-

lockable front cover.

The enclosure is not de-

signed to be watertight, and should not be sub-

merged. They are designed for use with 200, 230,

460, 575 or 380 volts, depending on your pump.

The integral electric motor of the submersible

pump

must be operated through the control box.

The control box is

not explosion-proof and should

not be operated in a hazardous atmosphere.

Because pump installations are seldom identical,
this manual cannot possibly provide detailed in-
structions and precautions for every aspect of
each specific application. Therefore, it is the re-
sponsibility of the owner/installer of the pump to
ensure that applications not addressed in this
manual are performed

only after establishing that

neither operator safety nor pump integrity are com-
promised by the installation. Pumps and related
equipment

must be installed and operated ac-

cording to all national, local and industry stan-
dards.

If there are any questions regarding the control box

which are not covered in this manual or in other lit-

erature accompanying the unit, please contact
