WARNING Prevent static electric sparks and possible explosions — always have fuel test
container on the ground when filling with gasoline. Use only containers approved for motor
fuel storage.
CAUTION Refer to all applicable Federal, State, City and local codes, your National
Electric Code (NEC), and the Automotive and Marine Service Station Code (NFPA 30A in the
USA) before installation or maintenance. This installation is designed for submersible pumps
which have a Pump Control box in the station. If a pump control box does not exist, then the
system must be retrofitted to add a pump control box in the facility to comply with Codes.
CAUTION Although the LSU300 is water resistant, INCON does not recommend
operating the LSU for long periods while under water. Drain the sump and manhole
immediately into a holding tank for disposal per Codes.
WARNING Highly flammable vapors may be present in the environment in which this
equipment is being installed or serviced. Do not smoke while working on or near this
equipment. Use only non-sparking tools. Failure to follow this instruction could result in a
serious fire or explosion.
CAUTION Before entering a containment sump check for the presence of hydrocarbon
vapors, if vapor levels are unsafe ventilate the sump with fresh air. While working in the sump
periodically check the atmosphere in the sump, if vapors reach unsafe levels exit the sump
and ventilate it.
CAUTION ALWAYS have a second person standing by for assistance when working in
or around a containment sump. Electronic and electrical petroleum monitoring equipment is
often housed in containment sumps designed to trap hazardous liquid spills and prevent
contamination of the environment.
WARNING These containment sumps can trap dangerous amounts of hydrocarbon vapors.
If these vapors are inhaled they could cause dizziness or unconsciousness. If the vapors
were ignited they could explode causing serious injury or death.
ELECTRICAL DANGER ALWAYS lock out and tag electrical circuit breakers while
installing or servicing this equipment, pumps and related equipment. A potentially lethal
electrical shock hazard and the possibility of an explosion or fire from a spark can result if
the electrical circuit breakers are accidentally turned on during installation or servicing.
During normal operation Auto-Learn will turn on the STP as part of its leak testing process. A
shock, fire or environmental contamination hazard could result from Auto-Learn attempting to
turn on the STP while equipment is being serviced.
